Home made paintball gun?

I think this could work pretty well:

It's instructions for a nerf gun , but it would probably function with paintballs.

That looks pretty sweet, I wonder how hard it'd be to make it shoot marshmallows semi or fully auto with a large (scuba sized) CO2 tank.... Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT: My dad just suggested using skittles, jawbreakers or some other candy as ammo.

Thats too complicated.

I will think up some plans for one later!

an unregulated scuba tank is several thousand psi i belive, i would be very careful doing anything with that kind of pressure without a proper regulator fyi, even paintball co2 tanks can go as high as 900psi which is PLENTY. i have rough designs for a full auto compressed air or co2 bb gun but it requires some metalworking, if i ever finish mine i will post pics and info!

Unless you make a blow gun or a gun that takes 5 minutes to reload, thats about as simple as it'll get. I'll going to try to get a sprinkler valve, I think we have some spare PVC around.

EDIT: Remember our conversation a week or two ago, Triton? It has a regulator, I'm gonna keep it at 100 psi so I don't embed PVC shrapnel in me. I think the tank needs refilled though, it only shows 700 psi and the gauge goes to 3000 psi, and it couldn't provide enough air to drive an impact wrench to change tires on our 4 wheeler, it could spin it, but you put it on the nut and it couldn't do anything.

Make this or this personally I really want to make the rifle.
