This is just a personal pet peeve of mine, but it's called a sniper rifle not a sniper. A sniper is one who uses a sniper rifle and yes, it does matter

. But sniper rifles aside, I really like the simplicity of it, nothing like getting back to the basics.
Yeah, it's that important.

This is just a personal pet peeve of mine, but it's only called a sniper rifle if it is an actual
rifle with a rifled barrel, and yes, it does matter.
Nice compact and simple pistol!

@clemsonguy, learn how to read.
Nice job. You've been cranking out a ton of guns lately, and they are actually pretty nice. Most of the time when people do that they are piles of @^%$%&
but you are another story. Nice 
PM sent, jrrdw.

I like it, its simple but effective. And gun freak just becauuse they post a lot of guns in a short period does not mean there bad. They could of built them over several months or years and just joined or gotten around to posting. If you have acess a regged co2 tank or unregged propane and a simple Tmag dentent would make that a great semi for airsoft wars.
Edit at Gun Freak-You post this on almost every bodys post where they have posted several guns in a short period of time, in this case you said he was a different story but in most cases you dont. And also pm me if you want to continue this discussion. This is not the place.
Good idea! Edited by jrrdw.

I hate to nitpick (if you can believe that

) but Messrs. Steyr Mannlicher
appear to think otherwise
wyz2285, not a bad effort - if you load multiple BBs you should have a nice little burst fire machine pistol, and a detent at the breech will negate the disadvantage of the relatively slow opening blowgun valve.

I have a tube in the end of the barrel,so when i put in the bb, it doesn't fall out,i call it "magic barrel" but it only works with one bb at time (if you watch my video you will see)

it´s a rubber tube, when you put the bb it falls in and get in the tube by inercy.so it doesn´t fall out that easy.

By having the space between a detent breech and the valve port as a chamber, you could make a semi/auto pistol quite simply. A light touch on the trigger will give you single shots, upping to full auto when fully depressed. Probably not feasible using just the blowgun body as a chamber, but you could always hook it up to a larger tank.

I'm sure you could fit about 5 airsoft BBs in the space between the valve and the barrel, and really for the tiny chamber that you have this would be enough.
