Airsoft howitzer breach load

[DoctorBadVibez]

Badass! I should build one of these. Excellent build Sir!

[compfire]

Incredible! Great build!

[posiedenfish]

Can you please make a tutorial?!

[kightremin]

Man this is amazing! Thank you very much!

[Sabre15sabre]

Nice how did you make the mechanism and breach load

[atmstorm1]

Holy crap man that is amazing how did u make that?

[oshuabailey38j]

I want this video on my A2618 unit.

[bksd64]

how do you put the buckshot rounds together?

[BLACKbear98chicken]

not airsoft

[ZEUKI1]

@BLACKbear98chicken

Not Airsoft ? the mud on the blast shield was from a scenario I had just come from with about 80 participants all using airsoft guns. I shoot a shell loaded with a couple hundred airsoft BBs, It uses AIR to shoot its projectile, which is foam and SOFT. Hence AIR SOFT HOWITZER

[bizkit2002]

i think this is awesome gun wish i could make one

[ablebravo]

could you do a demonstration of the range and spread of the beehive shell?

[Armageddon3284]

what was your total build cost?

[lonestarsam13]

I WANT TO BUY ONE

[lonestarsam13]

@lonestarsam13 of the smaller version ones that will shoot canisters

[Nelsonh396]

Too cool much XD

[battlefeild3airsoft]

I would pay a thousand dollars for one of these

[person2501]

Me and my dad are trying to make something like this and we were wondering if you could give us any tips or links to websites to make something like this. Anything would be appreciated.

[29Ottomatic]

fisrt airsoft artillery gun i have seen fire bb shot to nice work a shot suggestion i have for u and im will try it t some time but it ould be wrap the bbs in like paper towel and load that in fire it and at some point during flight the paper towle wil rip away and a mass of bbs will hit your enamys at long range

[SuperNolanator]

what do you use to charge it with air?

[TheSwisniewski]

How did you make the recoil/ejection system?

Interested in making the PAK30 that we have into an operational anti-tank weapon for our games

[KrykoStorm]

Now just imagine that rigged to be like a full-auto 20mm cannon.

[kevin188167]

how much would you want to sell the howitzer for with the shells

[joeylenseigne120]

awessssssssssomeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­ee

[guylo88]

have you made a video for your big bore cannon yet?! i think this is so cool. i am just getting into airsoft and seeing stuff like field artillery just makes the expereince that much more authentic.

[006TheOne]

I would love to make one of those!!!

[McGANGSTAWALRUS]

Hi, i can tell km not the only one VERY interested in this replica. Could you please post a vid of the construction and firing mechanism. It would be much appreciated by many. Thanks

[rctankbuilder]

Are you using a 5 port valve like your last cannon?

Can you send me a link or tell me exactly where I can buy one. What is the parts exact name?

[WPGOD]

could you make a tutorial on how to build one of these this is by far the best design i have ever seen!

[TheGrizzfan22]

how far does it shoot?

[Gpaintball242]

you should put a chair



[rectoven]

Have you Tryd using a small water bottle filld with vinegar and baking soda wrapd in a paper towel to simulate blast area? Mabe even try mixing bbs in thare for a frag effect

[11bravo19k]

has anyone ever told you your the man?

[MsAirsoftgi]

How did u make the new cannon

[0PizzaGuy0]

What is the bore and stroke of the pneumatic piston you used?

[ZEUKI1]

@0PizzaGuy0 Off the top of my head.......I dont remember exactly, in the neighborhood of 1.5X4.5 inch one way with internal return spring.

[McGANGSTAWALRUS]

@ZEUKI1 hey man GREAT job on your howitzer!!!! could you please post a video about the constuction and function of the blowback feature of it an how the shells work? it would be much appreciated. Me and my friends were planning on using this for airsoft games so much detail would be great, Thanks

[NUKEUM24]

@ZEUKI1 hey i know this will sound strange but how did you mount the howitzer onto the carrige. I have a plan for my own howitzer worked out just cant find any info on mounting it to the carrige.

[ZEUKI1]

@NUKEUM24

the cannon is mounted onto the carriage with the frame of the cannon by way of a large pivot pin. the pivot pin is welded to a large caster style bearing off of a bogey wheel for a trailer. there is a sprocket welded to that with a worm gear for traverse, elevation is achieved using a large 16'x5/8 piece of allthread. this whole contraption is mounted to a 3inch piece of pipe with a mounting plate bolted to the carriage I will do a video of this after winter, its in storage now..

[flanfan1212]

have you ever actually used it and did it hurt?

[ZEUKI1]

@flanfan1212 Yes we have used this gun, but only at area targets, buildings or vehicles. We only fire at people indirectly, as a direct hit at close range with full power would be........painfull to say the least.

[colonelkillyou]

i respect anyone with this amount of skill well done

[wetmelon]

Could you do a spotlight on the design of your shells? You said it was simply a piece of tubing with an air inlet cut in it, but I'm not sure I get it... What connection are you using for charging the shell with pressurized air?

[ZEUKI1]

@wetmelon the shells are simply a piece of thinwalled pipe that hold the round with a hole cut in the side to allow air to push the round out. the air comes from the pressure chamber which is mounted under the barrell. (just like an over under potato gun) there is an internal stop to keep the shell from moving forward and launching with the nerf. I would do a walkthrough of the build for this cannon but I have already built its replacement and am almost ready to field it.

[wetmelon]

@ZEUKI1 Well bring it out to NC - we'll get some games going with it! Have you ever toyed with the idea of a hybrid cannon (Air + combustion) rather than a pressure only design?

[ZEUKI1]

@wetmelon I would love to explore other propellant options, It would save me the huge headache of the logistics for supplying air to this thing in all weather conditions. Unfortunately pyro is frowned on at most fields around here (as a propellant). So for now I just use air or Co2. This cannon is very hungry for air,.........but nothing compared to the new big bore that is waiting for finishing touches and paint !!

[wetmelon]

@ZEUKI1 'tis unfortunate, isn't it? If you're interested, I can make a SolidWorks CAD model of your new cannon. Would allow you to get precise measurements later and more accurately machined parts, etc.

[minibikerider1]

@ZEUKI1 depends on the fuel and amount the combustion cannon can be super week or super powerful

so thats weird but has anyone ever figured out how to make a shell that lands or blows up or something in mid air that launches bbs

[MarineMike97]

the world is awsome.

[TheAcclamator]

make it look like a German flak 88

[HONORGUARD308]

@TheAcclamator naaa british 25 pounder would be better

[jabbadjaws]

the body is frkin perfect!! it just needs a bigger gun... how did u manage the breach loading bc ive got a pak40 with a 10 ft barrel and im tryin to figure out how to make a breech load without it exploding and killing me

[ZEUKI1]

@jabbadjaws thanks man, and the bigger gun is done !!! the breach load is a 1/4 inch plate on a hing with a locking bolt on the top. the pressure chamber is schedule 40 steel pipe, I will try and do a walk through with the new one, as it has essentially the same breach system, just larger.

[rushhour223]

Please tell us how you made it!!!!

[Nashorn101]

Is that metal? Welding? Plastic?

[Zorobeast]

That is buetifull. 9/10 stuff.

[newman123brad]

This is amazing dude. I used to play for an airsoft team before i joined the army. now im in field artillery. Im a 13F fire support specialist. I have to say I would really like to buy one of these from you. that is amazing.

[Weasel1282]

lol i want one!

[KILROYwasHERE1945]

Thats Crazy man! please do some video on how its built, feakin awesome

[bunker551]

what paint did u use brand and color.

[smashdude33]

thats pretty beast u got my subsciption

[MrDeath2833]

DUDE THAT IS BEAST, i like how it ejects the shells out!

[MadMilitiaMen]

Brilliant design, do you have any videos of the construction

[CRHAYNES123]

WOW! Dude that is awesome! Sell it for like $2000 or something!

[CaptainDesha]

thats sooo cool!

[fishingboy11]

how do you get it to eject the used round??? it and how did u build

[MrHockey691]

does the nerf thing like blow up or something

[MrHockey691]

how far can it shoot?

[Armyof9000]

Have you actually tried to use this in an airsoft war/skirmish yet?

[AirsoftBlu]

Best breech loaded airsoft cannon. How does the breech loading and recoil mechansims work? Please make a walkthrough.

[14aang12]

would u make me one and sell it

[SSPSheiK]

im building a breech loading cannon for my panzer tank and would love to know how you came up with the auto-eject mechanism. if you could do another video of the build that would be awesome

[Logan04PB]

How did you build it, are there designs somewhere. Would love to build me one.

[danielthesard]

wow. This is great! I would love to make some for our local airsoft group. If only i had the $... :(

[Molotov1943]

Thats incredible! Are you planning on making a how-to like with the old version? Im going to be building one of these soon for my project, but had given up on a breech system like this, but now im probably going to be basing mine on your design :D

[drchristian06]

dude please tell it was cheep to make i want one so bad you made me love you

[maniacstudio87]

You, my friend, are pure awesome!

[reedy991]

yh thats awsome and im making my own but my one is baced on the spud gun like the combustion :) but anyway do u think its posible to fire the frags out of them after lighting them so in the air they explode and make a cluster effect

[AlphawolfKing]

can you make a video on how to make that canon

[MarkTools]

how does the recoil system work?

[irishluvbeer]

Dude That's seriously awesome. I love the idea of building the Howitzer but I dont have the money nor the expertise to make one. Though if you made (a) video(s) showing how to make the barrel from scratch (this particular barrel I love) then I'm sure I could make one too. I love the idea, look, and realism to it.

Its an airsoft artillery gun, a piece of history, and art. Beautiful job.

[mdc2296]

make a walkthrough like you did with your other one please

[puzzler19]

how much did it cost total to make and u should draw some blue prints

[theostringer]

WANT ONE!!!!!!!!!

[shadowgeckobeast]

This is some cool stuff. Now you just need to make one thats twice as big. ;)

[KrykoStorm]

Wow, around 2:28, when a car drove past your garage, a car drove past my house on my security cam. Freaky, the noise perfectly matched up with the video from my monitor.

[taylorlawrence333]

Sweet Dude!
