nice, can't wait to see it completed, have you fired it through a chronograph yet? if so what were the numbers like? I've been really wanting to a PCP air gun build, but have a lot to learn about designing a valve/piston system that will function correctly and not dump all the air in one shot. Nice work, Keep it up! Great job on the stock BTW.
I love the fact that you made this from free scrap, I bet you could increase the pressure even more, the blowgun and hot glue piston seem like the weakest links, but a metal washer backing the rubber could help the piston, and the blowgun, hell they are rated for really low pressures but the extra pressure will probably just make it leak a little, not explode or break, and if you really needed to upgrade it you could get a pressure washer handle for pretty cheap
Awesome gun, epic music, and great video! Some constructive criticism though:
1) If you don't put a groove in your piston you'll get higher power, air will still leak through much slower.
2) Your piston looks like it was made of hot glue, try your hand at casting one from epoxy, it will provide less friction therefore faster opening times. It also won't expand on those really hot Australian summer days (I know this from experience).
3) I recommend you check out spudfiles if you haven't yet. :)
Try spraying some grease on the inside of the fitting before you pour the epoxy in, after it dries you'll be able to pop it out easily with a few hammer taps (I put mine against a piece of dowel in a vice and tighten it until it lets go). :)
I use a can of white lithium grease, you can get it pretty cheap from bunnings and it works wonders. :)
How did you make this? Did you attach a CO2 tank? Where's the valve? Is there a valve. :s Yeah, I know these are a lot of stupid questions but I really like this gun.
Yeah, I made a pneumatic spud gun myself (out of a small fire extinguisher) and I found that the only thing stopping the gun from working to its full potential was the limit of the pump.
how do you load that thing?

about how far can you accurately shoot?
i'm thinking about hooking one up to my air compressor which is running on 130psi

cool but dont use real pcp pressure for it ! 3000 psi will blow it right up.

@SketchyAussie hey thanks,i did make one out of epoxy but it was stuck in the brass fitting so i decided to stick with the hot glue piston.

very nice, But the valve´s pilot volume is too big, for better performance try a o-ring piston or reduce the pilot volume.
