Captan Slug, I am truly sorry for being a complete and total retard.
Plus 3 points to whoever closes this thread.

I do have enough smarts to make a homemade but I want to know if they're as good as I hear they are.

Could you leave this any more open ended? Bottom line is that other than a SNAPbow or SNAP, there are no homemades you can make for under $50 that are widely accepted as being war-safe.

Buy a Big Blast or Big Bad Bow and modify it. Use the $40 to buy the supplies needed to make stefans.

Now stop making the mistake of asking other people what you should do with your money.

The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?

agreed.
Mods are cheaper and far easier for newbs.

My advice would be to stick with mods, not homemades until you're really confident.

If you were to make a homemade, a simple ball valve gun with a small pressure chamber is easy and cheap.

thanks, I will stick to modding until I'm confident enough to make a homemade.

You know, that makes me want to prove you wrong. I have a couple ideas that should fall under that category. I just don't have the money right now to go put them together.
