just letting everyone now nerf vortex pocket foorballs are the perfect size for these airsoft rocket launchers they fit perfectl in 2 inch pvc. if you are going to use these at an airsoft field i recomend the howling nerf vortex because of the high pitch sound they make the reefs will know ones be fired and watch for it to make sure people behind cove rthe rocket hits call thier hits
If i were to use homemade airsoft grenades that weigh about a quarter pound, how far do you think this could shoot when propped at a 45 degree angle (like a mortar)
that was kickass, but could you please give us some instructions on making them? im more of an airsoft player, not a technician =P. just the exact same thing u had is good.
@SWATmonkeytheNinja my pvc pipes are long probably as long as yours but mine are thiner their 1 inch in diameter and the gas chamber pipe is 4 feet long and the ball valve is 1 inch and the front barrel is about 2 feet long or so will this work do u know
i made something like it but mine is way shorter and i used a car tire valve i got from some car shop and used shoe goo to seal it in the end cap.
mine is like 8" long without a barrel and i use foam things like nerf darts or something.... im not sure how to explain it... but yours has way more power... im getting about 300 fps if that with .12 gram bbs. also i used a propel bottle for the air camber (i used 1/2 inch pvc) and it works pretty good. so ya
One comment for anyone who makes one of these, Make sure the endcap you use for the air chamber is "pressure rated", or "pressure safe". Also, make sure you use enough (but not too much) glue, and give it time to dry before using the gun. I failed to do *both* of these the first time, and the endcap blew off and almost injured me. Be careful, don't hurt yourself
If you made the rear end, where the pressurized air is stored, shorter, the Launcher would store less air, and be *less powerful*. If you made the front end shorter, the Launcher's range and accuracy would be decreased.
The bike air valve, I actually took from a bike tire. I cut it out of the tire, and cut about an inch in diameter of the surrounding rubber. So you drill the hole, and BEFORE you glue on the endcap, you put PVC glue on the bike valve, and stick it up through the hole, so the extra rubber glues to the inside. then you glue on the endcap.
Nice guys. I'm using this idea, credit to you. You might consider filling Easter eggs up with airsoft bbs and launching it.

Ive been thinking... maybe i could make a bottle launcher out of PVC pipes, and the bottle would be launched by rubber bands.... hmm...

ps make sure you rotate the valve when making it so if ur shooting from right sholder the valve handle is on the right side

thanks

can u make a parts list
ExplodingTV 1 year ago
@ExplodingTV You'll need:
- two long pieces of PVC.
--A ball valve (i think that is what it's called)
--a pressure-rated PVC cap
--PVC Glue or Cement
--A bike valve (to get the air in)
--Any necessary connecter pieces.

@SWATmonkeytheNinja thanks and what did u use to pump the air was it a bike pump and if so how much psi do u think
thanks

@SWATmonkeytheNinja no offense butmking the gas chamber shorter will actually have it take less pumps to pressureize

hi
just about blew my head off
i noticed you pvc is the same size,if you can make the chamber bigger than the barral youl get more distance and power.
trust me.i own one
nice shirt!
