converting 68 mag to handgun

You could also order the feed tube from a PT Extreme and use that as a 'hopper'

that PT extreme hopper blows, I got a PT extreme and half the time you pull the gun out the slide catch dislodges it just enough to let the spring propel the 10 balls out of it.

Although I wont totally trash the PT Extreme; we had great fun with it. We took a generic remote added another line to it and set 2 pt's up for accepting the remotes. We went to a local indoor field and had an after hours john woo shootout. What a blast!

to get back on track if you can modify the shoddy latch it has or get them to sell you individual ones(I havent been so fortunate) it MIGHT work

If you plan on adding a silencer, you will have to have at least 1-2" sticking out to attach it, making barrel length 5-6" total, then attaching a silencer, at least another 10-12" giving you a total length of 16-18" barrel, defeating a small gun theme. As far as an air source, why not a vertical asa with a 12 gram quick change which would also double as a foregrip? Or the same attached to a bottom line asa except reversed (going out the front instead of the back)?

warlord i know what your saying about the barrel needing to be long but it will still be about 1" out of the breech of the gun. and it will have a type of silencer on it to make it alot quieter then it normaly would be with a small barrel like that. its hard to describe what it will look like but i have confidence it will work to an extent.

and as for putting the 12gram up front as a forgrip wont happen because for 1 its a handgun and meant to be used with 1 hand and im trying to make this with a limited amount of items on the outside of the gun so i will mostlikely be hiding the 12gram somewhere maybe by extending the feed tube to fit the 12 gram or even putting the 12gram inside the grip frame. but i still haven't had a chance to get my hands on a 12 gram adapter once i get one i will have a better idea of what im dealing with...

another idea i had was using a 4 ounce tank up front cuz i dunno how many shots i will get with a 12 gram so the 4 ounce will beable to be used as a front grip a little fat but it works.

That website i gave ya has quick changers on it, a 12 gram usually lasts 20-25 shots depending on gun. Silencers are easy to make but short ones dont quiet very well, i had a 6" one back in the good ole nelspot days but it wasnt very effective, it wasnt until i got a 12" one that it made a difference. The best one ever seen was made with a 2liter soda bottle, but that would defeat your purpose, i think. your best bet is to find a 8-10" straight ported barrel, maybe a J&J, and build the silencer around the barrel, I saw this done to an All American barrel which looked pretty trick and worked all to well as i was on the receiving end of it, lol....

ok its not going to be a true silencer..... but my goal is to have the barrel 1 " out of the breach. and then i am going to make it even quieter by adding porting to the barrel. The barrel i have chose for the job is a 8.5" taso eliminator barrel reasons: CHEAP, good barrel, aluminum(lightness)

i will make some sketches of ideas for the design of this gun to describe what im doing.
