Since they are 1/4", why not use one as a pilot for a much larger piston valve?

well i live in the UK sop making a big piston valve ( 4 inch ) would cost around £40 but i like the idea of a double barrel bb gun.
Edit: sweet that double barrel looks nice but i havent got a compressor so :(

Hmm...al this time I have liked double barrel shotguns..Sawed-off offcourse..

Never knew they made double barrel machineguns too..

Maybe....I should be making a double barrel MMG, via qev-pop-off...


and hack off the barrel........ :D

Seriously..If you can't find a real purpose for them..why not try a vortex gun like in the no ammo thread.
Firing a stable ring of just air, capable of knocking stuff over.

Why not?

Then I am curious, what makes your compressor so different?

I have a fridge compressor and a normal compressor. (And some 12V piece of crap)

-ontopic-
About the QEV's, you simply have to many of em. Maybe see if someone near you wants to trade two of em for a larger QEV or other component?
