Continuing my quest....

[jsdatjsd]

TO ask lots of questions, and to annoy bahemoth and exasperate Lohman...

I have a couple airguns, are these field legal? I have both, but the airsupply is problematic....

meh nail guns arent that what you see in happy gilmore. Some kid in my woods and metals class shot me from like 10 feet and it didnt break even break skin. they have pretty decent range though. You can hit from like 20-25 feet. i'm not saying you should go out and try it on some kid because im sure the fps changes from gun to gun

[cowboy_00]

at my field No and No.

Ive tried (but lets not get into that)

if your hell bent on one...there just LP.
Palmers sells something you can use on em.

again..No. but fun idea non the less.

[jsdatjsd]

I was shot in the chest by a nailgun from about 3 feet away. THe nail was spinning, and hit me sideways.

It hurt way more than a paintball at three feet.

For a couple weeks, I had a nail-silouhette shaped bruise.

If I shaved off the clipped head and put a strong bungie on the safety, and placed it on push-shot (where you hold the trigger and everytime you push the safety againts the mailig surface it fires) I bet i could get 5-10 shots a second. More with a cordless paselode.

Plus, both the guns require a compressor, but only 100 PSI...I bet I could rig a hpa tank with a 110 psi regualor, and get 5-10 thousand shots before i ran out of air.

And I bet I wouldn't have people wiping my shots off either.....

you could attempt as i did to mod it to shoot paintballs...but range SUCKS! it was just a week project..but it made an awesome sidearm (JOKE)

I bet a paselode would work better, those use BUTANE COMBUSTION to shoot the ram.

Loud though.

I know we use them to build mortar racks for shooting fireworks (great becuase you can set the sink in distance). Kinda like a Tippy C3 too!

Coooooooooool!

yea, but you also have to buy the fuel packs, AND battery's for it. :cuss:

[neppo1345]

I don't think those would mix too well with the newer airball fields...

I think you'd run into a few little problems.

[MoeMag]

I'm sure it can be done, but has anyone hooked up a hpa tank to one of those things? I bet that would be great on a construction site... no long hoses to the nail guns.

Has it been tried?

They run off of 300psi air compressors, so I bet a regulated air supply would work great. put a 92/4500 w/remote line on a workers back.

[Spartan X]

Maybe take all the internals out and put a spydarm inside there? There is prolly plenty of room. Basically made it into a paintball gun that looks like a nail gun....that would be hilarious.

[slade]

hey, isnt that an early mag or something?

nailguns are rather interesting, and the design is rather similar to a pneumag (well, i mean it uses a trigger activated 3-way to activate a ram)

The problem is that nailguns are high volume / low pressure. It would empty the HPA tank in a matter of a few shots. Given the cost of the equipment to fill HPA vs the cost of a small compressor like an Emglo(etc) its just not practical.

The Paslode Impulse nailer is so far the best hoseless option, but even it can't stand up to continuous duty. It eventually overheats and quits working reliably until the cylinder cools down enough. Its been a few years since I serviced them so they may have worked that problem out by now...

you are a really stupid person. aren't you.

I think that's not a problem now. You can go through an entire magazine without heating up badly with the models I used about 2 years ago.

Either way, I don't have a paselode, just a couple of compressor guns. And a nailgun works at like 109 psi, not 200+.

[jsdatjsd]

you are a really stupid person. aren't you.

Yep. Definitely. Dumb as a rock.

Rock on!

[BerSerK]

jsdatjsd, you are taking quite a bit of heat recently...can I ask why to you and the others.

I've seen your previous thread, it wasn't that bad...I guess people took it the wrong way. :confused:

[SCpoloRicker]

Actually, I rather like this approach.

/honestly
//also reasonably unclear as to reason for hate

[captian pinky]

hey 2 days ago my uncle and i were putting up cedar on the bottom side of our porch and we had to remove the safety :eek: it was fun hahaha hahaha :shooting:

I take heat for one of two reasons:

#1) (The believable reason)
Probably because I sometimes make statements that seem to have no merit or basis in reality. Often this is because I am uneducated in the mag unvierse, and only have sen it from a distance with envy.

#2) (The real reason)
However, there is an alternate explanation. The fact is, Im a genius. Honestly. My thinking is lightyears ahead of most others, and they are jealous. They aren't jealous of my intelligence (they should be, but aren't) but jealous of the fact that Im not afraid to say stupid things, to find answers to dumb questions, rather than just lurking for seven months to find answers.

#3) (The believable real reason)
I am so totally uncool that youngsters hate me. They think that to be so uncool is useless, and I should go drop myself off a cliff, what use do I have? BUt in reality, I represent what all cool people will eventually become, a plump office worker supporting a family in a tiny house with a huge mortgage and no real freedom to play paintball and videogames 24x7. I am waht they fear becoming, thus, a target for those who have a "less responsability needed" lifestyle.

So, there are three plausible reasons for the vindictiveness.

Oh, and I have a temper too, and flamewars are hard to resist. I try my best though.

You're a troll. Bottomline. If you were cool, intelligent, or even close to mature, you'd stop acting like the children who chastise you. It's not funny, stop living in your own private joke.

Get the heck off my lawn!

What the hell is the point of this thread? You cannot seriously be asking if nailguns are field legal can you? Think about it NAIL (sharp projectile) GUN (something that shoots said sharp projectiles). Nailguns + people = bad, and i figured anyone could figure that out. I geuss not though...

[Lohman446]

Its as legal as a large amount of my backup "markers" :D
