The valve that I have (lawn sprinkler) isn't letting enough air out in a 'burst'. The Nerf rocket comes out, well about three feet out I'll definatly look into the fire sprinkler valve though

Well got two awsome catalogs today.
Man I didn't know that there were that many air fittings, valves, mini-valves, air pistons and so much more.......

One of the pneumatic parts companies that I emailed sent me a couple of catalogs. Jeeeeze the lab is going to be busy!!!!! Actually the launcher is on hold till I get the main valve found and procured. That and I'm actually trying to draw out what I am doing before I go and get parts. Of course payday is not until next week which is a factor also. ;D it might even have a semi-auto (pneumatic) breech system (or not)

Post some pics and a run down on the test firings when you can.
Maybe, if you send it to Scooter he will get it electro-crominized with semi-precious stone inserts and FUR!

I've got one more actuator valve on order.
The first test firings went well. That was just using the main valve, barrel, air resivoir, tank and regulator.
Next step is to figure out the final design........
Muuuwaaahaaaaahaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
