I wanted to get some opionions on an LW 10" barrel pcp.
…pistol I am going to build. It can be built one of two ways.
My first option is with a disco tube and qb79 drop tank block with a hpa tank fitted with a 2000 psi regulated output and Rich in mich full barrel shroud, boss max flow valve, hammer weight can be whatever is needed as well as hammer spring. I am wondering if this 2000 psi output will be “overkill” and if it will make my pellets travel much too fast. I am thinking this will be the case.
If the drop tank is “too much” for this little 10″ barrel, then I can go with option #2 which is a disco pcp tube cut down to pistol/carbine length. I think option 2, but I digress….thanks guys.

I’d think a 2250 tube should do well with the 79 tank block myself…
2000psi output… you’re going to have to have a hell of a hammer spring in there to take advantage of that. What is it that you are trying to accomplish out of the setup? Rather than brute psi output, perhaps a bit more efficiency and around 1250-1400psi output? You’d be amazed at what a good polish job on the hammer and innards will do for you.
I’ve been considering a 79 tank block 22xx as well, but I am fortunate enough to have a MaxZ Bulk 45 degree adapter that I got from him before he disappeared and I’d like to use it with a 3.5oz CO2 tank… Got a spare carbine stock from Steve Corcoran to finish off the job!…
