Sydarm revisited - whole new direction

[bowcycle]

I acquired a sydarm in a recent trade and wanted to do something a little different.
You have all seen Reeb's pistola mags. He gave me the idea for mounting an ASA to the rail and here's the result-





I drilled and tapped the VASA so that it could sit against the frame and rounded out the top of the ASA to account for how the benchy widens at the rail. I then put a benchy frame and CCI bucket changer on her (more trades) and think she's look'n pretty hot.

The rail on the grip gives a few options for HPA-









I'll have some gloss black ccm fittings on the way soon to get those hoses right up against the marker. Then she'll really pop and still be able to fit in a holster.

Also thinking of getting a cocker-thread adapter and finding a freak back with super short tip to lengthen the barrel 1-1.5".

haha…it wasn't my idea eh?

how man shots per 12gr are ya getting?

wheres ur lever changer???

[bowcycle]

Reebs, I gave you credit from the start.

I can't use anything thicker than the bucket changer because then it couldn't screw into the asa that's under the rail. So the lever changer is out. A dropout changer is a possibility, but then it would be longer than the rest of the marker.

rocked this with the 13ci tank for a while this weekend. I definitely need to get better at reloading, but it took people by surprise to have a pistol charging at them and it points really well.
I am very pleased with this marker and can't wait to get my longer barrel and get it cut down. The bucket changer and paint tube are flush with one another. I think I'll cut the barrel 1" longer.

More pics soon.

How are you going to put a pump kit on it?

really like that mounting board. I have sold off all my pump mag stuff and now only do cockers for pumps (just the way I started).
What is the metal on the bottom of the frame of your mag?

It's looking great, and glad to hear you're pleased with how it plays. Reloading is a b**** though.

I checked, and that taso barrel I have isn't a center feed. Sorry about that.

I have a barrel on the way. It's a little long, but has the dual detents and I'll cut it down and polish the end. It should come out really well.
Should have that all done and pics up sometime next week.

[knownothingmags]

dual mags are too easy.
try something new.

That's cool. Concidering I just got Into mags a few months ago and wanted to try to build something I haven't seen yet, thanks for the support brother.

I have it already caded up.
may need to change it a bit, but that's easy now,
its amazing how my new job, has excelled my cad skill,
im not an expert but damn do I have some experts a phone call away.
5 mins and they build me what I need, and if they cant, they walk me through it in 10 mins.

just goes to show how simple and perfect mags are.

[knownothingmags]

that's why I went to school for something I love.
it has yet to disappoint.
and finding away to may much money is never a bad way to go.... I don't make much at my job.

Chose to work with high
Voltage haha can't really relate that to paintball

[bowcycle]

to get back on track, I've finally gotten my pistol-play rig built.






The pouch on my front carries spare 10r tubes and either an extra 13ci tank or 12ies if I'm using them.
There's a 3L hydration pouch on my back, but since this pic is just for show, I don't have the bladder in it.

Also, the pistol stays in the holster much better with the 12g changer on the front and no 13ci tank hanging off the back, but with the grip strap, it will stay in either way.

[bowcycle]

Here's the final form of this project. I have tried a lot of combinations of stuff on it and this is the way it looks best.






I have a lever changer that I'll use when actually playing with 12g's, but this configuration looks better.
It also still has the micro rail for CA when playing longer games, but I don't like the look of the ASA down there.

Thanks for all the comments along the way. Now it's time to play with this thing and stop messing with it.
