Silent Avenger

Thin, cheapo shells, definitely won't survive that. The glued together bb's separate about 50% of the time, so exit the gun as 4 separate bb's. Unfortunately this means 50% of the time they stick together, which very much defeats the purpose. I've talked to a friend who thinks it might be possible to adjust the O-rings I've bought to the perfect size if I freeze them so they're rigid, then sand them down. EDIT: Also thinking about putting a link to this topic in technical discussion, maybe get some more ideas on how to do this.

I've been experimenting a bit more with this. Turns out if you use toilet paper it jams far less than with regular paper, only about 1 in 5 shots or so. The problem comes if you try and cock the gun while the barrel is angled downwards. Firing downwards is fine, as long as the cocking was done properly. So here the only real problem is if you try and re-cock the gun too quickly, as then you forget to angle it up. Effective range is about 5-6m, so good for room clearing but nothing more I've also tried lightly gluing the bb's together, but they only separate about half the time, so plenty t

Never realised there were real life shotgun pistols. Guess it makes sense though. I'll look into it, although it seems like I'd have to have the O rings custom made, which just isn't going to happen... thanks for the idea though, maybe I'll find something.

I tried the shotgun trick you mentioned, and the gun jammed about 50% of the time... you need to stuff some paper down the front of the shell so the bb's don't just roll out, and then the paper gets stuck in the barrel. How are you doing it?
