Paintball

[pinesftw]

K guys, I made a rain cover with a PVC pipe and some Pipe covering.
It worked well with air only and I ported it so that the air would go out, It worked like a charm, To my horror when I brought it out to the field and began shooting my PGP, It began Chopping mad so then I raised my hand and told the ref I was going to put away the Silencer, FOR GOOD

Anyone got a good Idea to make a raincover For a PGP2k1

for instance:
2 inch pvc pipe

3 inch pvc pipe

etc.(you won't be using this big but you can

The designs I studied I got from a book printed by the good ol' US Army..."Rain Covers; Principals and Evaluations". Of course, that might not be the exact title I used baffles and expansion chambers for my rail cover. Alas, that was pre-9/11, I don't know if you can still get such useful information from the Army print shops anymore.

I used to use that puppy on an old square 'Cocker back in the day...I could hold the 3 way rod and squeeze off one shot without cycling, then cock it manually if I so desired.

The wikipedia entry on raincovers has some diagrams showing baffle construction, etc.

pinesftw - Were the balls hitting the inside of the raincover? if they weren't I don't see how it could have been causing your problem.
You do know the PGP2k1 had some issues with breaking balls due to bolt design & paint overspray on the inside of the barrel, right?

sadly, I tossed the Silencer away.

I took out most of the overspray, I shot the silencer 4-5 times out of a gamr after, all my paintballs broke. after that I used 100 paintballs , No breaks, My PGP doesn't chop too much anymore

question what type of gun you have i have phantom with dye boomstick and it very quite. people complain at times they can hear me hit them or know where shot came from. you will still hear when you shoot but people at long range will not.
