Raincover

So since my MVP pump isn't here yet (was planning to test it out today), decided to do something with the SP AA barrel I have laying around. Choped off the A5 threads, and will be making a cocker threaded back that will get glued on. But decided to keep the barrel dry when it rains.

Made the front and rear cap a tight fit on the barrel with an internal oring, and external orings for the shroud. Everything fits so snugly that I don't have to use any screw to keep it together, just one brass tipped set screw in the front cap to make shure it won't come off by accident. Its water tight and air tight. Will be making another front cap so I can attach my apex 2 to it. Now just to test out filler material (for moisture absorbtion).

Looks fantastic. Most rain covers seem to have bigger ports inside, I know the woosh tips are stock Kaners that are heavily milled to allow gas transfer.

Thanks Guys. I thought about opening up the ports, but decided not to. I truly did make this to keep rain from getting in my ports, and any sound reduction is just a plus. The Supergame in Oregon, in may, has in the past had a few showers. One year it was a monsoon.

Is there any chance you could make some more caps? I recently acquired a really long AA tip and have begun a similar project. I however lack the proper tools to make endcaps.

I have never used o-rings ......... they would probably make a difference.

There's a picture of the aforementioned raincover. Even with the need for a set screw, it's a lot quieter than my friend's vsc phantom(co2) despite me using HPA, and having insufficient rain removing material.
