Q:

Talon Bullpup…

… Well not really 😛

I’ve been wanting to do this for a pretty long time and now I’ve finally got the tools to get started Here’s my rather simple vision of a Talon BullPup –

Obviously quite a way to go – Someone like Buba would have this built in no time (hint hint !), but this is me and I’m learning from you guys as I go.. So any tips, hints, advice would be appreciated and I’ll post pics as I make (slow) progress.

The valve/airtube setup on this hobebuild condor was very good:

Sam as described above, small air resivoir with valve, remote tube to bottle.

blodnob, it seems like your losing your memory as i have already made a small cylinder connected by a small tube to fit in the back of a gun, have a look at thee pictures and see if they jog your memory, if not, il come round and knock some sense into you with my miniture bottle, how many gauges do you want? you already have my gauge of my styrup pump on your test rig or has that slipped your memory aswell, alzhimers creeping in or what

Yeah but.
Why bother with the expense of an extra bottle Baz ?
Why not just make an adaptor to screw onto the back of the valve from brass or ally’ ? It doesn’t need a volume as large as the bottle and it would be possible to make the volume variable .
You can put the small bore pipe strait into that without having to mollest a valve or make one, pluss put a gauge right in the back of it,pluss put a quik fill adaptor in and still be able to mount a fancy but plate affair.
I think my idea is much more betterer than yours Bazzil.
Al give you a free lesson and show you how to do it later.
( can i borrow one of your little gauges please ? )

Poof.

Looks good, thanks for the info baz, Your probe fill valve would be good too. Unfortunately all my spare $ (and then some) is being sunk into the CNC Project so Bull Pup is on the back burner and my SS is going to be in pieces for some time.

Hi Yellow Ninja
I managed to get hold of one of those small bottles. Luckily I already had a valve with a 14mm thread. I think this would be the ideal bottle size for anyone wanting to build a Bullpup similar to your layout, and a Bubba type of butt pad wrapped around the bottle

i think its posible using a braded hose going from an adapter on the tank that could have 3 holes for a foster fill valve a gage and the hose with a 90 degre bend going back to a small tank to hold some volume of air with the valve kind of like the co2 adapter. the problem would be hiding the hose for it not to look like a pb marker but with a proper custom stock could be done.

I remember your original post NY , it was very much about the time i started designing my Stealth. I nearly went for it ! , it was just the high pressure line that made it look abit too much for my first build. Think maybe it would have been easier to start from scratch rather than chop your Stealth…..bit to late now LoL .
I was going to use a smaller bottle 400cc aswell for better fit. So your just going to run a direct link to the original trigger group ! . Think what Camotes came up with worked and looked pretty good .
Becarefull ….building could turn into a bug pretty quickly 😀
L8r 😀

Yellow, try this mini cylinder from AP VALVES surface marker bouys at the back of your gun, AP do two sizes 0.1 litre [115mm x 50mm] and 0.2 litre [180mm x 50mm ] ,14mm x 1.5mm thread size, use a valve like this in one.

My father in law said something like that would [b]maybe[/b] need a small tank right at the valve, and a hose running from the larger tank to the small tank.

Something about a reservoir of air so all the air doesn’t have to travel down the hose each shot.

I really don’t know if it would be needed, but it sounded reasonable at the time.

Thats the way I would like my rifle to look BTW, love the concept.

If you could get a slimmer/longer tank, that would be very cool. Then run some tubing inside the frame and onto the end of the tank.

I suggest you talk to a HP hose man in your area. You are going to need some high pressure hose set up to get the air to the pellet.

Maybe take the valve out of the bottle and put it in the gun. Then route some hose to the tank.

That looks like it’s going to be a cool setup 😀 Can’t wait to see it all done up.
