My new copper gun with piston and a nice aluminum sight and detachable silencer with steel wool sepressor.
Ask away
Work at round about 200psi now (New pics of gun on page 2)
Edit: the new bullets is a 13mm steel boll with a 10mm fish tank hose over it and the rear has been heated up and bended outwards to create an air seal that will seal if air hits it, like a air gun pellet, the lead free ones like these.
o ps and a little Q-bond in the inside to make the steel ball stick.
New pics on page 2 and 3 :

wow I am impressed.... that sight looks really nice
does the silencer work good at reducing sound ? I suppose it does because you gun already has features that make it quiet

It works like this:
And the silencer works ok, it takes away that Crack sound but you will still here the gun loud if you take the volume of the silencer up to say a 2 or 3 times the barrel volume it should work very good but then your gun looks weird.

Looks good to me!

Very cool!
It reminds me of my early work, but greatly improved, with the wood bits!
Love this thing man!
You can shape and bend the BV handle to b more trigger like, and if you take a bike handle-grip ( watchamacallit) they fit 22mm pipe nicely.
Some handles are already shaped with the fingerinprints and all.
that would look great.
( that would require you to take off the compression ring)
