This is my little brass and steel gun.

It is capable of 300psi and more but that high pressure makes no sense with a silencer of this volume.
The range of 110-70psi is a compromise between power and noise reduction.

I have a small compressor, so every shot means a 10psi drop of pressure.

The darts are made of the nozzle of a sealant gun and a 10cm sharpened nail that is glued into it with epoxy.

  • dude you should be able to pump that to way over 110 my pcv airgun can go to 180 safely

  • @MultiMinecraft123 Does anyone actually read the description these days? This launcher has been pushed to over 500psi.....

    Telling people a pvc cannon is safe up to 180psi is a no brainer.

    1. There are different kinds of pvc tubing.

    2. I wouldn't recommend that at low temperatures.

    3. As bigger a cannon the more force is distributed to the surface of the pvc (at the same wall thickness).

    4. Playing with high pressure is anything else than safe.

  • the problem with you accuracy is the shape of your projectile. the weight of the nail combined with it's tendency to walk in the barrel will make longer range accuracy impossible. you need to stabilize the nose of the projectile.

  • @deptartment94 Finally somebody with constructive criticism. I agree with you on this point and have figuired out a way to solve that problem a long time ago. Overall this gun had its problems, like bad ergonomics (no stock), no balance (front heavy), no propper sights and the ammo problem. When I build it, it seems the least thing I had in mind was accuracy ;) .
