DISCLAIMER: THIS IS A NOVELTY ITEM; NEVER POINTED AT ANYONE OR ANYTHING
This beast has taken some time and effort but it's quite possible one of the craziest things I have ever built....
It fires wine corks, but the coolest thing is that it loads from the breech so there is no ram "rodding" the barrel. The barrel also floats so it can be retracted to secure to the threaded ball valve(firing system).
The CO2 cylinder is a basic 14oz paintball cylinder ^^ and of course comes off to be refilled. The valve on top I open and close to pressurize cylinder in the butt stock VV which has a gauge so I can set my desired pressure. ALSO I put a T in so if I want to use a bicycle pump I can. The laser is hooked up to a pressure switch that Velcros to the grip.
Everything is stainless so it will not rust, except for the main steel cylinder which has been welded with a 309ss wire to be compatible w/ carbon steel.
(note the manifold system off the cylinder for the tee and gauge)
The laser- an M140 445. it's measured at 1.9W:beer:
it actually might be a little too bright.
Thank you! It has been fun. So far in testing it has been on target but might need to tweak a little more later cya!
