Honest Opinion of Difficulty of Pneumagging?

[OPBN]

I appreciate the input guys. The links helped, especially since the one actually has a CAD drawing or something that kind of fills in the blanks. Doesnt look too hard. I haven't tapped a hole before (sounds kind of dirty), but might give it a go.

I already have a MicroRock and CP on/off ASA that I had planned for an E-bolt project, so pretty much all I wouuld need is the actual Pneu Kit from Cyberave68 and possibly an RT on/off.

:spit_take hit it, tap it, whatever...

At least one problem with a classic on/off is that the pressure required in the MPA-3 can start blowing the hose off the barbs if they aren't sharp, like the ones that come on ticklers. You also get some feedback on that higher pressure on your trigger from the msv.

It's not hard. Just don't do your first tap on your frame. Find a piece of junk metal that you can practice on. If you don't have anything lying around, pick up an aluminum bar from a hardware store. Tapping isn't especially hard, but it can be tricky to get it straight and not gum up the threads with all the shavings. You have to go in 1/2 a turn, and then come back out a quarter turn. Then go in half and out a quarter... and so on.

Tapping is quite fun, though. Now that I've learned how, it seems I'm always looking for an excuse to tap something. (Hmm.... we need an "evil genius" smilie here.)

lmao but as for the topic at hand, I think you can't go wrong with having cyberave68 or one of the other "pneumatic masters" on AO do your install. I just don't have the patience to find the perfect spot for the mpa3. If you can get yours to work, great. I bought a pnuemag that was originally made by pneumagger (I think) and I just left everything where it was, even though I wanted to take it apart and tinker with it. It shoots great so it's staying put together.

EDIT: One question of my own that I wanted to ask: Does it make a difference whether your on-off is a ULT or not?

Not really. The difference is neglegable. It will require slightly higher psi from the LPR to trip an RT on/off, but only a little.

A trick for you in case you didnt already know... WD-40 is your friend when tapping through aluminum. Just give it a squirt and run it through.
