Mag in a tube (AT)

[Newt]

Has anyone put an anti tank scenario mag together? The guide I've seen has puts the frame outside the tube with access holes cut for screws and the sear, while the rail and body are inside the tube. In other words, there's just over an 1/8" thick layer of PCV between the rail and the frame.

Is there any special consideration I need to make for the sear, sear arm, or general feel of the trigger or operation when doing this??

Anti tank was the main purpose of the minigun I built

I cant really picture what you are talking about. Can you draw a picture so we can get the right Idea?

I thought he was trying to make a nerf launcher or something similiar which is an idea I had tossed around at one point.

No, not a nerf. Automag in a tube.


Pictures!








Yes, I know they're terrible. Not my work.

This would be for scenario play. It's an anti tank weapon. You're restricted to 10 round tubes, your marker is inside a huge PVC shroud mocked to look like an RPG, panzershrek etc, and you hunt tanks. Moving vehicles with up to three independent gunners which are completely invulnerable except for a couple 4" square targets on the sides. Special breed of crazy.

Hmm. Never seen anything like that before. All the fields I play at usually just have nerf launchers. For what you are looking for, I think I would just try to engineer the tube so that it fit around everything instead of trying to get it to fit between the rail and frame. Just cut a big slot in the bottom and use the field strip screw and front vert grip screws to hold it in place. Seems silly for them to make you go through all that work wihen they could just give you a "Bazooka card" and make sure you are only using a stock class marker or 10 rnd tubes.
