Well heres my new coax.
Chamber-3.5 feet of 1 inch PVC
Barrel-3.5 feet of 1/2 inch CPVC
Pilot-1/2 inch Ball Valve
Piston-Epoxy Piston/ Epoxy around a rubber stopper
Power-No Idea, dry fired, shot a nerf dart good
Pressure-100 PSI Max
I used a ball valve cause they are cheap, it opens easily so my aims not messed up to much, Ill eventually paint it and Ill put up some videos tomorrow. I didnt build this for extreme power, just as a plinker.

You will find it is impressive. Load a few AA batteries and punch holes in an old CD player or something.

AA batteries only fit in 1/2 inch PVC, not 1/2 inch CPVC. CPVC is a little smaller in diameter then regular 1/2 PVC.

Haha nice, once I shot a little broken rod of some light metal with wadding and it went straight through the can, the damage looked just like yours.
