Make Your Own Nerf Gun, FROM SCRATCH!
Hey, this is my second good instructable so I am still kind of new to the whole instructable thing. Before we get started, I want to promote and give thanks to the video that taught me how to do it. I acctually forgot to take pictures in the making, but its pretty simple so you wont need that much instruction. I will give little tips and solutions that the guy didn't say, so this isn't just a blunt copy.
Here's the link:

Pvc Stuff
Cut a piece of pvc about 5 cm. File down one end so its a lot thinner. Connect that to the 2L bottle (make sure its empty). Connect the non-filed end into one end of the ball valve. Put 6 to 18 inches of pvc to the other end of the ball valve. Use pvc cement to secure it.
I used 1 inch pvc much to my despair, and than rolled up paper to make it thinner, i do not recommend this.

Put in the Pump
Put the pump hose in the bottle so it barely fits (use a drill), gorilla glue it a hell of a lot to get an airtight seal. Here is a list of things not to use for the seal:
Clay
Elmers Glue
Caulk
Duct tape
Nothing
Your finger

Secure Teh Pump
Duct tape a dowel from the small piece of pvc you put on earlier to the pump, this will hopefully, if done right, secure it.
Fire!!!!!
Test it out! Pump it up when the valve is closed and open the valve!
