      i dont have any pics but i think it works like this LPR sends air to 3,4,5 way whatever u wanna call it. u actuate the x way with your trigger and when u actuate it it sends air to a ram which trips the sear for you. Almost like and electro but not like it at all.

        That's how it works all right, but doing it in simply a 10 minute video would be next to impossible, since it WILL require more than just a dremel and a drill. There isn't really a set way to do it anyway, cause it will depend on what frame you have, materials, tools, experience, etc. Basically you just need to think, OK how can I put a small cylinder into the frame of an Automag with a three way in there. Once you can figure that out, go for it.

                Here is a diagram I drew up: The black is the frame, dark blue= x-way actuator, orange=pneumatics, gold=sear (use an emag sear; it has a spot you can push with the ram, just put it on a cocker frame and make a front block to hold the x-way.) haveblue.org is a great tinker website if you do this correctly you can really rip on the mag

                              Yup me and my Brother-In-Law made about 6 pneumaticaly assisted mags back in 98/99 they were actualy electro-pneumatic because they used solenoid valves rather than 3-ways (although the original prototype did use a cocker 3-way)

                              How to make one. Take a torch and heat up the front of the sear. this will remove the hardening process. drill a small hole in the lead edge of the sear. remove the rod and linkage that connects to the sear and put it in the hole you just created. Thread a pneumatic ram into that and mount it verticaly in the frame. once mounted it will pull down on the lead edge of the sear firing the gun.

                              there are 2 positions to mount the 3-way. one is depicted in an above post. the other is to drill out a large hole just behind the trigger (the size of a 3-way body) using a standard coupler place a spring between the body of the 3-way and the coupler that would connect the 3-way to a cocker's actuator rod. this causes the 3-way to be spring extended so when you press it it automaticaly rests.

                              use a set screw to hold the 3-way/coupler assembly in place behind the trigger. the trigger is now there to actuate the 3-way valve.

                              Hope that made some sense.
