Wow that looks good. You might want to consider replacing that ball valve with a modded sprinkler valve, and of course maybe a little flat matt paint.

i'm not to keen on it. needs a new valve and longer barrel and paint. also i think it would be better if the barrel was on top not bottom

interesting but what is that detachable part?

Because that seems interesting.

Replacing the ball valve with a modded sprinkler valve would also improve performance and make it more egronomical.

Did we need to see the guest set of toes, what particular dry food your dog doesn't like, your camera strap, the suspicious rip along the crotch area of your shorts and... wait, is that foil around your ears?

It takes a tiny, tiny amount of effort to post clean pictures, I wish more people would make it. You put the work into building your launcher, why not do the same when showing it off? It took me less than half a minute to crop the first pic, it's not such a big deal.

[/rant]

That aside, original launcher and looks a lot safer than version 1

Yes, but careful presentation costs next to nothing and serves as practice for the real world when you'll need it for your education and eventual employment.

And get yourself some proper piercings ;)

yea but toes are a must in a pic, its the signature of the creator, just like a painter signs a painting a cannon creator must put in his toes to signify its his creation :D

Just a helpful tip for you quiggly, don't start anything that you have no power to stop. (in other words, don't mess with jsr)

No a modded sprinkler valve would improve performance a lot since your barrel is so short because ball valves open really slow.

And are you really going to talk to JSR like that? You've got issues

[rant] It's a freakin grenade launcher you doober, it is supposed to be used to lob rounds short distances, or did the designation m203 not ring a bell in your head. and the m203 grenade launcher is slung underneath the m16 thereby making it a bottom mounted unit. [/rant] <--thanks JSR I like that.

Other than that I like it with a few exceptions, one being the ball valve. go for the little extra bulkiness but reliability and faster opening time for improved performance. Also I like the redone barrel system, but i think it needs a thrid incarnation maybe find a way to go a little more high tech maybe with a sringloaded catch mechanism to hold the breech closed cause it looks like a friction system. Other than that good job, cool gun.
Yea, that's definitely going to get you at least a tazer.
