this is my new work in progress i call it the slider the chamber collapses in the barrel like a m72a1 law
the gun collapsed
the gun extended
the gun has a 2in barrel it will be powered by 12 gram co2 i still have to work out a few things but the slide works and the slide lock ill post more pics later

How do you keep the slip joint from leaking once the barrel is extended? Some kind of compression flare???

Wondering the same. BTW, if it works, it will definitely be a piece of work. Looks good so far.

O-rings and enough contact area to prevent excessive wobble which might lift the rings and cause a leak should keep the seal.
Looking good.
I sketched up a collapseable combustion design a while back which can be even simpler as the projectile seals the barrel from the chamber so it's essentially what you have there minus the ball valve and plus a couple of wires and a screw cap.

that is awsome how much power does it get and got any specs
Edit: your chamber pipe is dwv and should not be used above 60psi
