Hey all,
 
I'm in the planning stages of putting a launcher together and I wanted to check with all the relevant authorities before I start tooling around. What's Battlefront's policy on homemade launchers? I have already decided with absolute certainty that my setup will be at least double-regulated and will have all-metal air chambers, albeit prototypes may use PVC for the barrel for cost reasons. Anything else I should keep in mind while I'm at the drawing board? Thanks!
 
John

Nope, you pretty much have it down, regulators are the important parts. It just needs to be approved by field staff before its used.

Thanks, Chappy. I've been tinkering with paintball equipment for well over a decade and if anything I'm too safety conscious.

Almost forgot the important part: what's the speed limit for Nerfs?
