Hey guys,

this is my first pneumatic ever :lol:
I first tried to built it with a piston but that kinda didn't seel :(
so used a simple ballvalve

I don't have a compressor so I use my bikepump to pressure it.
I usually shot at 160 psi (good exercise with the pump :D )
I can switch the barrels. got a 7.5mm and a 14mm one.
Home made bibod as you can see :wink:
& an old stock from my crappy spudgun :lol:

I know I have to get a scope for it. I'm working on that :lol:
I'm going to paint the barrels & the bipods black and
maybe finish the guilly thing around it.

I can hit a torso big target at ~60 yard with a few crappy softair-BBs
Not that bad but I'm thinking of buying some heave metal ones.
& building some nice darts for the bigger barrel :twisted:

Enough talking here are some pics:
(Sry about the crappy quali made them with my webcam)

It's alright. Springloading the BV will give you a noticeable performance boost.

Very good for a first, would be good to ditch the tape though. Grab some better pictures and we should be able to say more.

Good job

its not bad but as you already know the ball valve is definitely not the best you can do. perhaps a modified sprinkler valve is due? anyway, its not bad for a first. at least it works :wink:

get some damage pics with a better camera while your at it

What exactly is that wrapped around the stock?

thanks. It's hard/expencive to get a sprinklervalve here so I think I´m going to try to seal the piston valve thing and give that an other try.

@paaiyan: :lol: its an old jeans that I had laying around, spraypainted camo and teard appart :D works pretty good
