This gun is called Alley Oop which stands for All (ey) Out Of Porportion. It's not totally out of porportion, I just felt like naming a gun Alley Oop. The pilot valve is a ball valve. I don't really think it looks that good but it does work well. I decided to post it because no one else was posting anything too interesting (Want some grapes for example haha)

The piston is hot glue with some neoprene for a seal against the barrel.

And thus, from boredom, arrises greatness...or something. Looks good, and clean, better primming than my cannon. And with that said, I must build more.

how far does it shoot? what kind of accuracy does it have?

The range depends on the projectile. Nerfs go fast but not far. Accuracy depends on how fast I can turn the ball valve without jerking the gun too much.

kool what you should do is try to replace the bal valve with a blowgun.

this is a coaxail. im guessing the C:B ratio is about .4:1 but other than that there is nothing wrong with the proportins :roll:

you would actualy might improve performance whith a shorter barrel
