im more interested in piston valves since they are substantially more powerful and i've noticed how at low pressures you can lose air through solenoids. I've clocked a piston gun of mine at 760 fps with a chronograph using paintballs. i think a pistol is 900, but ill have to post my semi auto plan for u later this week to see what you think. its pretty involved with small moving parts but they have small bronze pipes that fit well for pistons at Ace Harware-you probly know what im talking about.
umm its not really semi auto. he just pulled the trigger fast on his sprink valve and didnt use all the air...if it was really semi auto hed show it off. that was lame
@ukilliheal did you actually build a mechanism where the trigger can be held down after firing and not keep leaking air? if you're letting up on the trigger its not semi auto by definition. shooting single shots does not make it semi auto. What valve did u actually use? was it home made piston? if you have a spring behind the piston i might give you credit, although that would not really be efficient.
@Tehc00n You are right. If i held down the trigger the gun would keep cycling. So by definition it is in fact full auto, but the compressor i was using has a low capacity, so i labeled this video as semi-auto. I upload a few videos explaining how to make it. I have also uploaded a video of just the gun cycling. About 3 weeks ago i modified it to shoot AA batteries:watch?v=A6Gs2mKNjV0 .If after these videos you are not convinced, feel free state your argument on any of these videos.
@ukilliheal Im used to seeing spam so much that i instinctively chew everyone out. You're the only person that hasn't responded like a dumbass btw. Your automatic with the batteries is pretty sweet. How did you do the bolt in the shaft? I think i have a .gif lying around somewhere of my plans to make a semi auto. I've always wanted to make a portable, reliable, single shot with multiple rounds. Probably for airsoft or pellets though since air would need to be conserved to make it portable.
@Tehc00n The bolt is a basic blow forward bolt. I think i might have an idea for true semi auto gun. You would need 2 solenoid valves - one controlling airflow from a compressor (or CO2 tank) and the other to release air in to the barrel. The one controlling airflow would need to be always open (allowing airflow) - but allowed to close when you pull the trigger, that in combination with my bolt and good safety relief valve(if your using a modified solenoid) would achieve true semi auto.

im building it this week, but am using a mod sprink exhaust instead of another piston.

did u ever get my .gif from that message?

@Tehc00n I did and i think that what you have is very complicated but should work. If you ever build it send me a video of it working.

@Tehc00n I don't really understand how you think this isn't semi auto. Please explain further.
