Thanks for sharing this, and in such detail too, a very interesting project. Are you using the standard 2000 psi fill pressure? A hell of a lot of power for sure. I particularly like the way you added the extra tank and transferred the air over. Did it make the gun frony heavy much? I may be modding my disco by adding an inline pump along the bottom in much the same place as your tank! Appynoon
Hey Lloyd, what kind of shot count and fpe are you getting with your .25? I'm looking to make my disco a .22 airhawg. I would like 10-15 really good shots at 70fpe to 40fpe as I use up air. Can you give me some kind words? Joe
Yes, I used the standard air tube which is 7/8" dia x .065" wall. Volume is about 130 CCs. Many pieces on the gun were modified or built new from scratch to handle the extra pressure and power.
nice video mate. can you tell me if you know anything about the so called debounce devise, which stops hammer from striking valve pin more than once, and if it works.cheers
I have mixed feelings about the debounce devices. Some smart people swear by them, so there must be something there. Personally, at high fill pressures, with the proper springs (hammer and valve closure) hammer weight and stroke, the system should be self regulating. At lower tank pressures, gains can be made. But fragile parts and bouncy o-rings..... a variation on that theme can be helpful. It has worked for me, but I have not collected quantitative data to back up my statement.
You know them things better than the mfg. Awesome work.

Daystate's are really nice guns and I don't think I want to be trying to "fix" them, LOL.

that's nice.all you need to add in customization is a regulator.it is very important.
Hi.........i was wondering how light the Valve spring is? You said it was lighter then stock Disco?
Thanks
is the .25cal discovery air cylinder of the same size as the .22?what's the diameter measurement?
good vid sire, i was looking for some information about the pin valve diam. and transfer hole. and does it use a regulator ?
There is no regulator in this set up.
