Notes:
I'm pretty darn happy with the results as it's pretty much a glorified mini spudgun. It shoots fast, accurate, is nice to hold, just awesome.
Bb's don't simply roll out and you don't need any wadding as well. Just blow one down the barrel until it gets stuck in the rubber ring and add some butane.
Firing multiple .12 gram bb's is just plain hot; bb's don't spread all over the place but keep flying in a nice tight package for yards. I guess it's because of the long barrel.
It can shoot trough CD's, boxes, some plastic containers and chip some of the harder plastics. And being able to hit match boxes at literally 10-15 yards in the center is so very cool!
What I'm also really satisfied with is the trigger. Not a small stupid piezo that'll start hurting your fingers if you use it for too long. Just a nice, comfortable, trigger-shaped thingy. It also has a safety lever!
Stock was made from some scrap wood I had around, and everything held together by those plastic straps. The sling is originally a guitar sling and attaches very nicely. Overal weight is estimated about 0.75 kg, very light.
Some stuff I shot with it:
I'll probably upload some more and more clear images soon.
Tell me what you think, some feedback would be nice!
