Breech Loaded Airsoft Blowgun!

This is my breech loaded airsoft blowgun. I put it together in about 15-20 mins, so be expecting updates in the near future(later today).

Step 1 Materials

This is what you need(Duh)

1.)Pen barell(airsoft barell for over achievers)
2.)Highlighter cap that fits snugly around pen barell
3.)Leatherman, Multi-tool, whatever you want to call it
4.)Electrical tape(any kind will work, as long as it is about a half inch wide)
5.)Airsoft BB's
6.)Mp3 player(i used mine for lighting and a stand for the vid)

i just use the twisty rod from window blinds, cut off the tips, and load a handfull in my mouth. it has really good range too. good idea though

There's a problem. What if you need to fire 91-269 degrees when up is 0 or 360 (for the simple-minded, down). The pellet just rolls out of the barrel.

First of all, I know this is an old post but i have an answer. simply use steel bbs, and attach a magnet to the barrel (assuming your adding a breach to an altoids blowgun, inside the container, on the opposite side of the ammo.) make sure the magnet is strong enough to hold a bb through the barrel, but weak enough to be able to blow it loose. the latter shouldn't be difficult if the barrel is snug enough around the bb. I'm sure I don't have to say this, but using steel bbs makes this setup much more dangerous, and should never be fired at a person (or pet). This would be great for keeping stray animals out of the yard, or hunting pigeons! :)

that's pretty cool, but it looks like the pump action blowgun that i looked at.=|

[sharlston]

what pump action blowgun?

[bigpinecone]

lol, today's a new day so i'll make some stuff for it so maybe it might have a mag or sumtin how was the vid?

[pyro13]

[avwos]

WOW! so original.

[bowhunter08]

if you get a old broken carbon arrow you can shoot bb tourght it

u can make an airsoft blowgun by just using an old airsoft barrel, i used to have a spring m16, broken so we used leftover parts i would say w/ that barrel about 180fps... not that high probably lower but it still stings... last resort weapon...hehe

[twenglish1]

you could probably try one of the pencil grips to cover the breech hole

[Johawk]

lol this works much better then I thought it would. I simply took the barrel from my old AEG and covered the hole on the top with a peice of highlighter cap, stuck a BB into the end, aimed at my knee, blew as hard as I could, and my knee nearly turned purple.

you can mack a mag out of a bic pen and put in hole

[casvandegoor]

ah ha now I understand!

I made a frickin' AWESOME version where it can be semi- or automatic. It stills shoots airsoft BB's. Mine can carry up to 15 BB's in its magazine. Will post instructable soon to give you more detail!
