it comes ON at about 85 psi and turns OFF at about 105 psi, aboth are +/- about 5 psi, and yeah it's plenty to run most 1/2" rattle guns.

have a look at airbagit.com, they have a range of pressure switches, not sure if they will do international sales though.

mine cuts out at around 110 psi, but that is an old gauge so it might be a bit out
