my new compact combustion shotgun also known as the "RAVEN"

UPDATE: my new slightly longer barel (straighter to) with less holes witch has increased power but still kept its semi silenced ability (thanks for the help john)

and new DAMAGE pics

UPDATE: the new bigger chamber this little gun has started to become a hand full

:twisted: video of the raven shooting a jar into a bit of foam :twisted:

Do you let the air pressure back out after mixing the fuel charge?

I think He meant "Muzzle Brake".

To inform the people that don't know, it's "brake", rather than "break", because that's what it does - It's a brake to reduce the recoil.
