cool!  very nice airgun, I plan to make one very similar to it in .25 caliber.  One question though, how did you connect it to the stock? does it have any play from how you connected it?

Nice gun, how many other ones did you make before it?

You're supposed to screw out (not all the way) the pink screw first. If you unscrew it first then no air will leak out from the tank  ;D

How many ADs did you have with it? Looks like a hazard to me with no safety devices on it. I just hope that black tape plays no role whatsoever in keeping the valve handle closed  ;)

the black tape is just to cover the wire so it does not cut me. this gun now has a safety on it. it has NO PLAY WHATSOEVER, it is put through a hole in the stock and then fill in the hole with hot glue and glue the rest down. this is my 6th airgun.

Nice! For my 6th I was still using a coke bottle and ball valve. Didnt even have a schrader in the bottom  ;D
Good job

I had this filling system... a one way valve and a bike pump adapter screwed together. To fill the gun, screw on the filling adapter, open ball valve, pump, close ball valve, disconnect pump and filling adapter, screw on the barrel, fire  ;D
Crazy I know.. but it was powerfull as hell... 2l of air at 10 bar will push anything you want. A pain to pump too even with a high volume pump.

Hey Mouz, I saw your nunchaku and bow  ;) and some of your other nunchaku clips. Great skill! The sound of your gun was like that of a fire arm  :o. Just pump the gun first, then load the dart. Don't reverse this order. While you are pumping, you can't take care much of the direction of the muzzle and the gun may discharge unintentionally. Good clip!

 I feel that doing it the other way is safer personally...IDK about you but I wouldn't want that thing to go off while im shoving a projectile down the barrel

i generally loaded it first and then pumped it up until i accidentally pulled the trigger while pumping, fortunately i was pointing it up just in case. so now i load it after i pump it up.

ALL guns are always loaded more ppl are shot with "unloaded guns" than with loaded guns so you raise your chances right there as all guns are always loaded you will never point a gun at anything you do not wish to destroy ,if it never points at something that you dont want to destroy then it can never shoot anything you dont wish to destroy. There is no such thing as a safe direction if a gun is discharged something will be damaged or destroyed always keep all guns pointed in the direction of the most accectable damage. The most effective safty on any gun it the one behind your eyes and between ears. If you follow that then load first or air first doesnt realy matter
