Alright, about a month ago (three weeks before thanksgiving), I had the urge to build a my own homemade. It's not yet done, and has gone through 3 major design changes. I'll post more information as soon as I make more progress.

Its purpose: be an effective long range rifle

I didn't know how a plunger worked (or what a plunger was) at the time (i was a complete noob), so i decided to go with a bike pump for the air pressure. I also used Zero's breech and basic valve. I think its ok for my first homemade.

the gun at it's current state

breech open

another breech picture

Still didn't Upload it

What I haven't done yet....


EDIT- still need to add a handle. Its harder that I thought it would be.

Cool. What do you think the ranges will be?

Pretty far i hope.
it is meant to be a loser rifle so if it doesn't have good ranges, it'll be pretty useless

well, after working on this thing for who knows how long, i am putting this project to rest. the air leaks are a nuisance and i am starting to really hate this gun. this post officially marks the death of the S.O.R:LR project: Messenger 4000.
