Throwtogether Mags?

[Ruler_Mark]

hmmmmm

[Ruler_Mark]

Do I win since mine was THROWN not screwed together?

[Pneumagger]

I had some 1.125" 6061AL stock lying around... so I threw this mag together after cleaning it up on the lathe/mill a bit.
I uses a Mag rail... does it still count as a "mag"?

[behemoth]

I miss the days of having enough parts around to build multiple autocockers, Sniper IIs and mags....

[Runamok]

Believe me, if you had to look through all the boxes I did to re-discover the parts . You wouldn't miss it at all. In fact I was looking for something totally non-Paintball when I ran across the frame and rail and was sucked back into trying to make it work. An experiment in Artificial Stupidity.I'm still noodleing an idea for a pin valve on a 12 gr drop out so I can save partial 12 grams between uses. There is no cure for what I've got.

test reply....

but ya'll got sexier throw togethers than my primary mag

[OPBN]

Pneumagger.. exactly was is that?

[Pneumagger]

Just a spool valve/body to fit mag lowers. Cocker threads and aka feedneck. It's mechanical... uses a trigger activated 4way. I never got around to making it electronic.

[Thotograph]

Don't go electro... mech spools are RAD! Also pretty rare I suppose... IIRC there's what 3 that were factory made including mags (counting all AGD guns as one varietal)? Nova's, mags and ICDs Desert Fox. Any others? RM was trying to make a mechanical Quest a while back

Is that an FEP Quest bolt? Looks alot like one... whatever it is it's pretty cool. Hope it gets built

[Pneumagger]

It's a bolt I designed and machined. I designed the marker sometime early 2007. My goal was a design improvement on the shocker without all those orings and parts. Only two parts & five orings. I showed the design to a buddy and he goes, "It's an FEP Quest." I asked... WTF is an FEP Quest?!? and found out that the concept already existed. Oh well, I came up with it on my own so I built it anyways. Screw the quest.

It runs at a higher pressure than a quest (I think) because the parts/volumes are smaller.
Since those pictures it's been hardcoat anodized black and I have a redesigned bolt guide that should offer more efficiency if I can ever get around to testing it again.

And it does work. Fast forward to the 5 minute mark of this 3 1/2 year old video:

Behemoth and I bolted a cocker slider frame to the rail and zip-tied a 3way to the rail as well. Ghetto fabulous.
The bolt looks slow because the trigger is controlling the bolt (just like an autococker). One of the crappy regs was whistling for some reason.

I'm currently working on building another electronic mag valve that Uses AGD bolts and an MQ valve just for fun.
