Pretty cool but post some more pics/details/damage pics etc.

From what i can see it looks good. Is that a QEV?
I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
Right now I'm having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I've forgotten this before.

I've never seen a cannon in that shape before. At what pressure did you get 400 yards?

125 psi is the highest the job site compressor goes.And thats what I shoot at. Attach hose, work ball valve.
Turret gun is the idea, working on legs/tripod.
3/4" QEV I got for free.

My uncle works with QEV's and such.He saw a sprinkler gun of mine
and said it looked like QEV. My eyes lit up! He sent QEV and two oil filled gauges.

Hmm thats pretty cool, but It would be alot better and easier to hold with a another 90 degree turn. But thats just me.
