oh, crap
. I was shooting potatoes, apples, slugs, and pieces of pumpkins as buckshot (4" barrel). well, lets just say I crammed several pounds of pumpkin down the barrel, charged it up to 60 psi, then shot it. the gun was backed up against a railroad tie (long story, ask later), so it couldn't move backwards. the recoil forced the barrel back, snapping the pvc in several places. luckily, i was able to remove the fittings that needed replacing, and the cracked pipe without damaging the valve, the two 4 inch elbows, one entire air chamber,etc are all fine. the tee under the tee with the valve in it, and the coupler, reducer, and pipe connecting it to the elbow all need replacing. I estimate the cost at 40 bucks (maby more, maby less, but not by much), but I've spent too much on it to just give up. $40 is not all that bad, seeing I've spent well over $400 on it so far (wow!). I can have it up and running, maby more powerful than ever before within the next two weeks. the gun is in three pieces at the moment. needless to say, the swat gun well be out of commission for a while. oh well, I will just dirtbike more for the next two weeks.
lol. Atleast the valves not damaged, Make sure to get some new pics of the new gun man!
Lol you could sell these massive guns to people for $2000 and then you can make a womans version and paint it hot pink! lol. Man I have a few great ideas like that! I would love to see this gun shoot a 4 inch ice round! man that would hurt like a mother... Try making a mini version of this gun and go paintballing with it. Or you could use the big version and sneak it in with a really really really large backpack...Haha be funny to see...
. I may build a wooden support for the valve, and rest of air chambers too. man, This really sucks.
