    After all the drilling and tapping and working to put into that Chupacabra frame, you could have just an M90

    But if you determined to use that frame, id contact Loguzzzzz/ Practice Target to do the pnuematic install
    oh i can do the milling & tapping i just like to give seasoned members $$$/props on a forums they operate out of.

    i run a cadd/cam shop so its cool.

    and true about the m90. but there were no avail.
    and i know how to get the Pneumatics in this frame no problem.

    but thankyou for the info.


    thankyou,

      The center hole on the chimera was origionally for intelli feed cables. Hence the grooves on either side of the hole. I'm guessing that the insert is an interference fit tube designed to turn that hole into an air passage without milling the frame.

      I have no idea what modifications would be needed to the ASA to get it to work.

        Mag79 pretty much covered the asa part

        Never seen an " extender" piece like that

          Me either, but I like it... I'm guessing the top is internally threaded, and you externally thread the bottom? If only the top was groved/slotted/hex or something.

            After it's installed it's not going to move

              A while back I I was modding someone umf, they wanted a sleeper. I wasn't sure how to make the passege for the lpr as the umf has 4 mount holes for the bottom asa. Thats were the extender came up. I milled a hole in the frame and fab'd the extender with a slightly bigger diameter. The frame was heated and the extender was dropped in liquid nitrogen and in it went. I have also used it in a chimera frame.

              The top of the extender was internally threaded for the lpr. I also made one to thread into a bullet lpr for triton sleeper.

                Not sure if my Chimera frame is differenct, but the hole in the bottom of mine was already larger than 1/8npt... I could easily stick the LPR in and out of the hole. Were some milled larger?

                  Mag79, I really have to give you some public props. You have taken this idea and come up with some really neat solutions both borrowed, and your own like all of them are. But not only are you willing to help people with thier own fabrication, show pictures of your solutions, AND go so far as to suggest another individual who is doing them simply because they were closer.

                  It is rare to see someone be that helpful and open about what you are doing for a service that some others are making a KILLING on. No offence to any of those others meant at all, after all this is a free source kind of thing....held as a patent by, well, someone?

                    Its not hard to tell you and Mag79 are good friends. Nothing like boosting him up cause he gave some advice. If i recall corectly i spent a LOT of time with mag79 at Tunaball 3 going over how to build a pneu and give plenty of public advice. You act as if he is one of a kind. People have been giveing advice on stuff like this for many years. Again I was not the first to post a "HOW TO PNEUMAG" thread but i also posted ALL MY ideas and how i did them here, Not to mention the Magmod set up... I wonder where that design came from?
