No, I used PVC primer, and universal cement there because I conected PVC to ABS. I used ABS for the main portion of the reservoir. To fix it I put screw into the piping where the PVC meets the ABS so that the glue doesn't have to responsable for the suport, just the seal.
It's still drying, but I tried a dry shot. I pumped only 10 times, and for like 3 secondes there was this huge gurgle, and a wush of air. I pumped it 30 times, and it sounded like a continous blowgun for 10 seconds. Something tells me this will be awesome!

Its awesome! so awesome. range at least 40 feet, thats on at least 10x! probably 20x! I'm so exited. I never thought it would work! I havn't taken real stats yet. But it has one shot per tank, with no drop off! the shot time is well over 10 secondeds. And thats with a huge outpoot! I'll probably get pictures tomorrow. I doubt its as good as im saying. but I think it is! IT WORKS!!!

The exclamation points aren't neccesary. Also, Mdriver, people tend to want output more than X, X really is just for comparison to other guns.
Also, never ever pressurize a gun when it's drying. Never. All that does is create holes in the glue. If you want to test your gun, do it 2 or more hours after it has been glued, as it says on the PVC Cement bottle.
Get the pictures asap!
