Actually, 120 psi is a lot. There is a reason FIRST has us use only 60 psi. If you do make a pvc gun, please, please make sure that you don't use pvc for the air storage or charging.

Wrapping the tube (barrel) in duct tape a lot and putting a bigger tube around it makes it a little safer.

be safe, Vivek
