Gee thanks!

You must have missed the " Brian the brain" sample in the earlier vid.
It's dubbed over the same song.
When I was 19- 20, I listened to them all the time..

" I'll huff and puff and blow your head off"
Brilliant :D


in case any of you who wonder.

I lost my mustache in a nasty sssssssmelting accident.. :wink:

Are you kidding me????

My hands are itching to fire a couple of shots from this thing!
Click-clack-bam....click-clack-bam!
When that mag is done I'll make another vid...

Pop some bottles or something..
:D
I just realised it's the only lever action pump-pneumatic in existance...

:roll:
Yay!
Seems I'm better at building guns than I am at playing guitar..

I'm feeling that same buzz I got when I made my first sawn-off!
Oh the days.....

Another update.

I made the halfcock safety notch.
This is basically a notch in the trigger about halfway into wich the hammer locks in such a way the trigger can not be pulled.

This disables the trigger and keeps the hammer locked in position so it can't push the valvestem

After the vid I discovered the hammer axle had turned loose a bit, wich effects the spring.I need to put a nut on the other side.

On another note...I am seriously considering getting .43 ( 11mm!!Yay!!) paintballs for this thing.
Great target practice!

Normal cocked position.When rear of trigger rotates up the hammer can swing forward.

halfcock safety.Because of the shape of the notch the trigger can't rotate up.Only fully cocking the hammer frees the trigger.
