Damn i really like this gun. you need to paint the pvc black. It would also rock with a scope. I think you need to put a qev on this it will shoot better, more acurate( no turning and jerking),and easier.

The thing is it would be hard to do that because i use the ball valve as a trigger setup, it is postioned perfectly for a trigger. Qev's are kind of big and boxy and i think it would mess up the overall "sleekness" of the gun.

Awesome gun, though personally I think you should have made the chamber out of metal. Then you could use it at ridiculous pressures and have fun with recoil!

Make your own man. Go for some metal pipe and a welder and try a piston valve with a small blow gun valve, you get the sleekness you like and power. Peace man

Raise your horns if you love metal.

galvanized steel pipe is good and holds plenty of pressure.

I actually got my hands on an old 9 0z. paintball airtank, its really hard to get the gold thingy of the top so I can just use the tank... is there a trick or a method to get it off.
Merged:
I was wondering if one of these would work on my gun if I hooked it up to the valve...?

Or would it be too much pressure for the valve???

How bulky would this actually be???

Would it be better to go with the 1/8 in... the design is sleeker and smaller, but it could restrict the air flow... it might end up being worse than the 1/4 in valve I already have on there. I have have posted simple drawings of what they look like...
Screw the 1/4 in I'm using the 1/8...
