Hey guys,
Found this website, it may be useful to Aussies only because this store is in Australia. Has anyone seen this before???

They have fittings here that are rated to 1,500 Bar (20,000 psi)
They also have many other useful parts such as 3 -way valves that are rated to 1,500 Bar and check-valves, which are also rated to 1,500 Bar. I've never seen this place in person but I'd imagine that SOME of the fittings are quite large and would only suite a combustible type cannon. They have piping rated to 20,000 psi, that comes in all your standard sizes e.g 1/4", 3/8". No sign of 1/2" though... The second link provided is all the fittings and you can download a PDF which has the whole list of parts they sell and tables with lots of information.
On the first link there is a section of air pumps. The really HUGE pumps can pressurize up to 5,500 Bar and the smaller, a lot cheaper ones, can do 1 - 10 Bars, which would be useful for your PVC pneumatic cannons.
Have fun searching this site. I don't know if this is actually useful but it's worth a shot. But I would imagine most of the parts would be extremely expensive.

there are tons of cool stuff there
The problem is that this stuff is usually very expensive (uhmm ok clippard and AZ pneumatica have reasonable prices). The sites can be useful if you need a datasheet for a valve that you found on ebay
