Emag lost on/off pin ----alternatives

[agdemagman69]

Hey, i was just wondering if there is anyway to get rid of that damn yellow pin and Ghetto-Rig an on off button...

Also, Im just curious about what you guys do when you lose your emag pins. (besides get new ones)

basically all the pin does is to interrupt one of the battery contacts form the run running through the grip-frame. I'd say anything that's the same diameter will work, as long as it's not metal.

i just though of something, if you dont like someone, get a metal thingy witht eh same diameter and put it where the battery pin goes and tell them to hold it and see if they touch the metal thing. it might not hurt but it would shock them. just make sure it aint your gun because they wil probaly drop it. but anyways....i would get a twig or something adn put it in there to disrupt the electrical flow or somethign like that

Zip ties. Gotta shove the end in kinda far, but you can easily attach it to your air hose.

if you take a dremel to the yellow pin and shave it right, you never have to take it out. You twist/turn it in the direction you shaved and it will turn on. Go back the other direction and it will turn off. I will get pics of my make-shift on/off switch. It is actually pretty slick and is a black pin with a lever at the end of it instead of the yellow pin. Pics up of it on Wednesday.

pics as promissed. In the first pic, the new improved black pin is in the off position.

Flip the switch over to the left and the gun powers up. The concept is quite simple, comes in handy and never have to worry about pulling the pin out our lossing it because it always stays in the battery.

and here is a pic of the modified pin. The part that is shaved out allows the metal on the battery to still make contact. Rotate it and it pushes the metal away like shooving the yellow pin in would do.
