Thanks for the replies guys, sorry I've been slow to reply, I've been real busy with homework.

I actually never saw your thread before I made my rounds JSR but clearly great minds think alike. I also like Busenburner's idea as well. I noticed that when the lead cooled it tended to contract and become loose in the CO2 shell. Super glue solved it, but I think lead shot and maybe a little epoxy would work nicely as well.

Trigger guard will be implemented in the final stages of the project. And efficiency wise I'm gonna keep everything the same, especially since I can't fit any larger pipe in that grip with out breaking through the sides.

Absinthe,
The CO2 shell was a left over piece I shot which had no lead in it, but despite no lead it still made a hole in the trash can but did not go through. I'm sure it would have gone through if the trash can wasn't jam packed full of sh*t.

Now why would you use a trash can instead of a toilet? :lol: :wink: On a related note i like how you used an sks stock instead of a monte carlo makes it look really tactical. :)
Yeah, it's that important.

P.S. Go Cardnal!
...My dad went to Stanford and that's where I wish to go too. I attended Stanford EPGY (educational program for gifted youth) last year, and I'm going again this summer!


Once again great job on the cannon
