Looks like a really decent gun. I especially like the sprayjob. To increase efficiency you should shorten your hose to the blowgun, thus minimalising pilot volume. Otherwise it looks really good.
btw, with 3/4" barrel, you can shoot paintballs too.
really good quote/phrase here

Simplicity in its finest. One of the nicer rifles I've seen. I'm sure you have a nice time with it too (you know, shooting lunch boxes and stuff).

As far as upgrades go; you may can turn the sprinkler valve so the top is on the bottom, or use an elbow to shorten the hose. There are a few more mods that can be done to enhance the performance also (noname did a super mod to the sprinkler valve and blowgun). A pressure gauge and pop-off valve are always nice, too.

BTW: nice avatar :)

Hi.

That´s one nice gun, and with history, too!

Sometimes one stumbles over ingenuity of past times .. like the Austrian Windbüschen (http://www.beemans.net/Austrian%20airguns.htm). This is another example of how little has happened over time, hehe.

How did yoy trigger it back then?

Regards
Soren
