That's an Idea, it could and probably will work. For a CPH, actually anything can go wrong with ANYTHING.
APHs, seals arent tight, holes in PC, cumbersome, most of the time no practicality, DROPPOFF.
CPH wrongs- bladder pop... Internal pressure damage. Nozzle blowing off, cumbersome, most of the time no practicality.
WBLs- pressure leak, dangerous sabots(metal...:oo: ) , balloon pops before firing, balloon pops in midair, cumbersome, sometimes no practiclity, little hit ratios...

And so many more!!!!

Exactly my thoughts... aside from that, I made a new thread for the build after cracking into the first parts. Wish me luck! (Also, I figured out a check valve solution- at least in part. Posted on the new thread.)
