AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Can the sear be removed from the system? I think so.
could this led to removing the rail all together and using a mpa3 to push directly on the on/off?
so did you just use cut the front of the sear off and assemble?
or did you do something to the noid?
I supose one could loose the rail with this idea. The goal is to loose the sear all together and push up on the on off pin directly, as you said. I am just doing it this way to test the theory before I get to far into it.
The noid is open instead of closed. It is a different noid.
I am not even sure that this will crono and all that, but we will see. I will shoot it tomorrow for the second test.
The main hope is to get better efficiency. But I think the bolt and power-tube will last way longer without a sear. Also it would make running eye wires less risky.
My worry is that the tuning will have to be so perfect that this will only be a mod for really experienced mag owners that totally understand how it works.

Maybe a NOOB question, what happens that causes the bolt and power tube wear? What eventually happens?

The bolt rubs against the sear every time the gun shoots. This is a metal to metal contact. The bolt only lasts about 150,000 rounds before needing replaced due to this contact.
Here was the first shooting video. It was working perfectly until I turned the velocity up. Without the LPR wrench to turn it up to, it started to leak down the barrel after the hopper. I turned The lpr up after and shot some more and leak gone.
Now that i have seen it will function it is time to go all nuts and start building a prototype to try and use in a few weeks.
I believe the main problem I am running into is that the ram vents to slow, causing me to run a very fine line between input pressure from the valve and the pressure the LPR is set at. So I will install a etek QEV on it and see if that makes a difference. The second thing I dont like is that the etek 2 board will only go up to 15 ms dwell I wanted to start at 20.
