    Smile My Hair Triggered Pneu 'Cocker

    Hey Guys.
    I finally had some time over the Long weekend up here in Canada to finish this project.
    I've taken the mechanics of a PneuMag and adapted it over to create my version of a Pneumatic cocker
    Thanks to Mag79 for his kit: Mag79 Kit
    and all the resources I found here.









    I had a chance to test her out for the first time on the field Monday.
    All I can say is "Wow!"
    I was easily keeping up with the electros on the field.
    The trigger pull is as light as the original Select Fire WGP E-frame. The Magnets aren't necessary but it gives it a nice quick return.

    Spyder's Fasta 18v boasts 30bps but since it is not a true force feed loader I was easily outshooting it with one finger.
    As a newbie to swing frames I'm could barely walk it with any rhythm.

    Who could imagine? I need a Prophecy to keep up with a mechanical cocker.

    I intentionally used a Mini Rock LPR which has a larger air chamber providing me the the extra air volume.

    ... Hmmm... what to do next? Maybe a Slider version? :P

    Well there has to be 2 things in there, one for the sear and one for the 4way. I just don't know if/how you could set up one ram to do both.

    Hey fishmishin,

    Thanks
    I was thinking that having Barbs on the front block would make it easier for disassembly & servicing.
    The paint I was shooting was Draxxus ... bronze I think but very good quality for rec.

    Yes. I was thinking about this too. Gutting the electronics from an Uprising frame should work too but I didn't have any experience with this frame. If I come across a busted frame I'll give it a go.

    Post 3-qevs

    Some updates.

    I had a chance to tinker so I gutted the grip frame to illustrate how the trigger mechanism works.
    You can see how sear and the 3-way plate is linked together with a horizontal spring.
    So when the mini Ram strikes the bottom of the 3-way plate it lowers the sear and rotates the 3-way plate simultaneously.

    I've also added a QEV to the RAM so that it would cycle more efficiently.
    Is there any other gun that uses 3 QEVS ? :P

    I tried a bunch of configurations but the space is pretty tight.
    It would have been cleaner if I had mounted it directly to the Ram but this would have breeched a whole bunch of tiny air passages.
    I might try it with my next version.

    Anyways here's what she looks like so far.
