<a href="http://ultimatespudgun.com/fully-assemb ... ML-630e</a>
Baseball shooter for customer...

AR-15 pistol grip
Sureshot aluminum switch/handle assembly (<a href="http://ultimatespudgun.com/pistol-grip- ... ARI-101</a>)
30KV ignition module
3" schedule 80 barrel diameter
6" threaded cap
1 : 1 CB ratio
40" barrel

The special coupling is pressure rated (130PSI continuous)

Retail on web site $130

Chrony showed top speed of 324fps (220mph) and 715ft/lbs energy! HGDT predicted 158fps, we were surprised. Schedule 80 3" is really as good a fit as anyone could ask for baseball. Ball fits just snug enough to hold position in barrel. Customer threatens to have us build BL-630.

This could easily support schedule 40 2.5" for tennis balls

Videos to come

AR-15 pistol grip, Handle assembly, switch and igniter only $50 (<a href="http://ultimatespudgun.com/pistol-grip- ... ARI-101</a>)
You supply the hose clamps to attach to virtually any rig.

definitely it's much more affordable while it still has some nice features... spudguns for the masses - that seems like a good idea

Neat coupling. I'm sure it helps to "go with the flow" through the barrel porting.
Till the day I'm dieing, I'll keep them spuddies flying, 'cause I can!

I'm thinking add metering + fan and interchangeable barrel system to accommodate a wide range of pitches.

nah, but this customer has an interesting use... warding off aliens.

That might be the outward impression but I think you'll find they're fairly reasonable if you take the time to get to know them properly :)
