Hey guys, I came up with this design a couple of days ago. :idea: It's for a semi-auto, pneumatic sniper rifle. It uses a 3/4" sprinkler valve and a compressor blow gun for the trigger mechanism. I just wanted to know your guys' opinions on it and if you have any suggestions for me. Thanks.

Looks good, except maybe a 3/4" solenoid valve is slightly overkill for airsoft, you might want to look into smaller valves used in washing machines and dishwashers.

You could even use the blowgun directly, power wouldn't be a problem though the fact that you have to "snatch" the trigger would affect accuracy.
