Please tear this thing apart and tell me what you think. Please make suggestions.

I wanted the barrel mounted solid so, I had to come up with another way to strike the valve. I am really not a fan of this type of linkage; it’s one of the best options I had come up with that would be compact. The d…Read more

I have heard 1cc per fpe, but not sure about that. The reality is that it all comes down to pressure that you are running. The higher the…Read more

When I was diving I always asked them to let it rest and then top it off.

I am looking at the firing linkage and the valve. Anyone want to chime in on either the valve and or linkage.

This design will use an airforce type valve, be non-regulated or regulated using a firing chamber.

I am still working on this, so what do people…Read more

I really would like to get the dimensions on one.

I know triggers are tricky business so I figure using a predesigned drop in unit will eliminate a lot of issues. Then I would just need a linkage to the hammer release.

I had read somewhere that the 32 JSB packaging has been done post christmas this year and first shipment will be this summer. I will have to look back and see where I saw that, I guess I will be shooting the Baracudas till then.

I have admired your work and seen your regulator setup. Is your 62ci tank a 4500psi tank, if so it is 3…Read more

I am assuming that would be a legality?

So why do people place an o-ring behind the top hat? Is it to quite the impact of metal to metal, shorten open time? I have read many old posts but this just seems to evade my understanding. Some say if gives a quicker close time some say…Read more
