Well, this is my new gun i just put together. Right now the paint is drying so no damge yet. this gun is fired by an air tank. So this is how it works i have a gallon carry air tank i just tap in a thread for the blow gun and attach the hose from the carry air tank to the gun when i prress the blow gun the pressure goes in and the disk burst. As you can see i have no union yet. I will get that tomro cuase its christmas today and home depot is closed

Yea, looks like black on olive green. The dark pic makes it hard to see the cannon. Move the chairs and lean it against the white wall. The pipe is a off white so it will still be easy to see.

Yea, much better. I bet when the disk breaks it's a heck of a commotion goes on! Hows the anticipation waiting for it to go off? Fun fun.

Nice. I see it works a lot like the MBDC. Probably more power though, due to the wider bore and larger porting.
Looks pretty good. What do you use for disks?
