Frow these plans the cannon shoots marbles and hopefully there is enough air force to have enough time for alll the marbles to go through, or at least most.

i think this is good but i would leave the magazine out of it. I have never though of this and it would make a good design. Its like a coaxile.

that is exactly where i got my idea. well the pressure chamber goin over the barrel part atlest. (just for more compressed air to put in.

dont waste a sprinkler valve on that, it makes the process harder, i'd rather make a piston out of a pipe cap

okay im a little lost, is it like a coaxile with a spring fed magizine? except your going to put a sprinkler valve inside the chamber instead of making a piston/ diaphram for it, right?

theres a cannon on spudtech with a sprinkler valve inside a coax

all it is is a pretty much the same as an over under cannon but this has a spring filled magazine and the pressure chamber thing is over the entire gun is all.

yeah, go with an end cap piston, and ditch the magazine.

endcap piston. i've heard of pistons on spud cannons but i don't really know what they do or are for.

When i read the title i thought it was gonna be another wanna be semi-auto, fooled me. I would like to see this built into a mini, and use bb's for ammo.
What do the rest of you think of a mini built like this?
The smaller the better!

a mini built like this would be pretty cool.

hmm..okay that clears piston stuff up. so then is a piston one better than just an over under normal penu? From what i read it seems like it would just be giving a quick 1 burst of air, if so then that wouldn't really work for my auto feeder cuz it will take around 3 second mabey for it to feed the majority through. i want it to be automatic but it seems from what you're thinking its just so you don't have to re-load as much, which i could be used for lol.

yes, piston valves are much better. did you click the link in the last description? It shows another piston valve design.
