Ten Round Feedtube- Concept Drawing

[luke]

Sorry for the ignorance..

By the comments made above, I'm guessing that you reload "through" Phantam cap?

[luke]

BTW, I've pretty much decided I would make a few of the "rock n cock" tubes. I just need a cap so I can finalize the design.

First off , as a stock class player , great idea. Having seen your SS work I'm sure they will be a steller job.

Thanks.

My suggestions would only be to definately keep the feed tube tight to the body , more SC acceptable and preferable.

What do you mean by "SC"?

Sorry, i don't get out much!

And definately use a Phantam 'like' feed cap , almost a must IMO.Not sure if you got it yet but the Phantom ones fit on a .875 tube but they are plastic and have some variance.

Where might I get my hands on one??

Luke,

I understand the cost factor for spring feeds might be to costly or time consuming but please leave the option on the table. Id rather ship my body to you and have it done then get it back and wait even longer to have it done by palmers, which inturn will be raked over the coals price wise.

What exactly do they offer? Link?

I actually just aquired a mag pistol, I kind of like the way it was done. What they did was take a magazine similar to those from a Zeus pistol and weld it to the body. That way it's all spring fed.

What would be really cool is to weld up a mount that allows you to use these Zeus magazines one the Mag pistol. That would be sweet. Why design something totally new?

Just my 2 cents.

the phantom feedcap is very similar to a halo speedfeed, its just tabs of plastic that are flexible enough that you can push a 10 rnd tube into it, and when you pull out the tube the tabs bend back, blocking the tube and keeping the paint from coming out

Thanks.

I did a search and found the tube you are talking about but couldn't find anything on the mount.

luke the Zeus mags have a pull push duel pin system thats spring loaded. they are also hideous in my opinion and only look good on the armotech/miltec pistols.

as far as the pps spring feed tubes i know its like 100 bucks for a pgp base marker(kp,pm1 ect). Maybe the cost of brass is more than ss? but that just seems outrageous too me, considering they do all brass markers and buy all that tubing in bulk. anywho, custom work is custom work and i dont want to upset the pps fan boys.

as far as the cap... i just expressed what id prefer personally. I dont have an issue with reloading. but if it came with a phantom cap... am i not going to buy it? NO! Still going to buy one.



edit: looking for a pic still of the zeus mag system. like i said its a pull push duel pin system on the mag and a opposing hook system on the marker it self. so.. i dont thing it would be cost effective. plus they be ugly.

I'm not opposed to offering more than one type of service for the same mod, as long as it is something I want to do.

As far as the cap, at this point I haven't really considered selling them. I generally only sell parts I make myself, with the exception of the few electrical parts I stock. Sales are not enough to allow me to buy enough stock to make it worth my effort.

The tube length and location will be determined by a suitable "loading" cap. The final design will allow the use of either. As soon as I can get a cap I'll get the project underway. If someone will direct me to a reputable shop to purchase one, I will.

Whitewolfairsmith has aluminum caps

CCI has caps too

And jay8541 may still have some delrin ones he made


Remember when you by a cap you still need the ball retainer that acts like the speed feed that sits inside the cap

So you need a cap and retainer


Good luck, I'm gonna watch this thread, I'm very intrested

Bump.

Just keepin' it alive, I'd like to see this happen.

[ShotgunFacelift]

Looks promising

It's going to happen. I have the materials to make 8 or 10 setups. I have a customer body in the shop right now waiting for the conversion, i just have to make the parts. I'm just more than a little behind right now.

The material I use is just a smig bigger than what AGD uses so the caps fit nice and tight. I'll have to find out for sure what brand was sent in and pass it along..
