1/8 inch is WAY too small!! Use what Gun freak suggested, or just buy an airsoft barrel. 6mm brake line is the cheapest, and the best.

*facepalm* I used 1/8" PEX tubing, 1/8" precision steel tubing, 1/8" brass pipe nipples, they all fit airsoft bb's. Its not too small. And brake line is not the best thing out there....

Awful barrel.

ID of 9/32" brass tubing = .252"
better barrel.

I wish... I wont find anything smaller but I made the list an I'll go to lowes this week and find the parts I need then make it. =).

I don't understand the ggdt with my gun and also. Do I have to use a tubeless valve? I planned on using my shrader valve from and intertube and strip the rubber off and epoxy some tape to the end of it so it doesn't fly out.
Did I mess up with ggdt?

You aren't making a hammer valve gun so I'm not sure why you used it in GGDT. I would also find pipe and tubing diameters as well. .5'' PVC is not .5'' inner diameter. It's actually approximately .62''. I would use a barrel closer to the BB diameter as well. There will be a large gap around the BB in type L 1/4'' copper pipe.

I won't find anything smaller =/. Since I'm buying parts today. Im using a hammer valve so wat should I put as valve in ggdt? and wat is the inner and outer diameter?

You're using using a ball valve...

Don't even think about hammer valves

You should be able to find everything alright. Just don't ask the idiot employees for help

I went to lowes and bought every thing. An employee even seen me buying stuff so he said he makes guns too and convinced my mom to buy me a dremel and some teflon tape.

Gun Freak · Sat Jan 21, 2012 5:19 pm

Your dremel will soon become your best friend. It is a great tool.

Oh and yeah you need teflon tape... duh.

Let's see it!
