Now with the insane airplane fan inside its shoot insane, almost 550 fps beacuse of that

Mitchza89 · Thu Mar 06, 2008 7:18 pm

Jesus..... The fan really makes that much of a difference aye?

elitesniper · Thu Mar 06, 2008 7:19 pm

yes fan make an insane difference, ive tried to fire then gun with out the fan on but its takes about 5 or six clicks to make it fire, but when the fan is on its fired on the first click no matter what.

Mitchza89 · Thu Mar 06, 2008 7:26 pm

Well I just shot a milo can. It pissed through both sides.......and through the backboard with a small rock at 3m....Definately happy

Damn, so clean... Damage pics PLOX

I just did the coin test at 250psi. I shot a nail through a 10c piece and an inch into the back board. I shot a 20c piece soon after but I made the tip too sharp and so it had no strength. It got close to going through the coin but the nail tip just collapsed and moulded into the coin. I can't get it out....

If I had some high speed steel nails, I reckon I'd have a bit more luck.

Cheers for the comment Pizlo

Wow very nice.
I would really like to see some pics of this awsome damage you speak of or even a vid.
Id bet its loud because I just finished my mini coax(1/2 the size of this) and it makes a surprising crack when it is fired at 200psi and will soon get up to 500psi.
what pressure have you taken it up to?sorry if that has already been mentioned

It pissed through both sides...

Was that a typo or are you just being Australian?

Nature always choses the path of least resistance, if your projectile is harder than your target then it's easier to penetrate. I use masonry nails, the ones that tend to snap rather than bend if you hit them sideways.

yes master jsr i should i have listened, anyways im building a bigger bore piston rifle so i dont have to worry about those, not enough power problems

bigbob12345 · Thu Mar 06, 2008 11:53 pm

500psi?! damn....how and the hell are ya gonna achieve that?

I will take it up to 500psi with the high pressure pump I am working on.
1/2in type L copper body and a floating o-ring
Should be able to get to 500psi[/quote]
