Thanks everyone. No, it's just 3/4" SCH 80... wish I had invested in at least the CPVC... it's a little more but provides a better fit. Oh well, I just can't aim downward otherwise the pb rolls out :( I had the same problem of the pb rolling out. Just make a "homemade detent" Grind a screw very sma...

spring for semi auto

I need a strong spring to imitate "his" (clide's semi auto) loading mechanism. Where do I get one and how much would it cost. (I dont want it in bulk, and I don't know how to make one-unless someones teaches me how to....)

Thank you

bolt for pb gun

Hello

I would like to make a air powered bolt that returns by spring. I would like to know what size of pipe would fit into 1/2 inch pvc sdr (paintball size) smoothly and would slide in and out.

Thank you

I have the option to borrow both a co2 and compressed air....with a remote (borrowed from a friend) even if i use a remote and no liquid comes through..doesn't the air of co2 get really cold anyway when released from the tank fast?

Thanks

Question on Co2

I know that Co2 gets extremely cold when released from the tank very fast. And I also know that PVC gets EXTREMELY brittle when it gets extremely cold. Wouldn't it be safer to use a paintball compressed air tank then a paintball co2 tank? Tell me what you think..

Thanks

I know that you said that you can fire about 2 balls per second. But isn't that only because of the air mechanism? (not because of the loading)

Thanks

Hopper...

I am making a painball gun and i currently have a tee, (with shaved stops) fitted over the barrel with a hole in the barrel (with o-rings to seal off air). I currently just use pvc as the hopper that connects into the top of the tee. since the pvc is sealed on the top.. it wont allow air to leak int...

The pipe with the best fit is the 1/2 inch sdr pvc. Just look for the half inch pipe with thin walls and bring a paintball or two to the store to see it. I went to Lowes, and I found it!!! 10ft for $1.08!!!!!! Not even on sale!! Dirt Cheap! And 10 feet is more than enough for like 5 barrels!
