    can you pneumag a Emag frame?

    Never built a sleeper pneumag or a regular pneumag, but how difficult is it to stuff all the pneumag parts in the frame, without Luke's sleeper frontblock? So please discuss...

    building a PneuMag in an Eframe should be easy. Not sure about sleeper. ITT there is more room than an intelliframe.

              Take it from someone who just built one , To build a "Sleeper" where the LPR an hose is hidden, with out Lukes block ,its gonna be damn near very tedious ,and aggravating tapping & running those 1/8 npt lines in and out.
              NOT IMPOSSIBLE just alot harder without his manifold or one that's similar .
              Build pic




              This was the first pic of build ,so alot of adjustments have been made after this ,pistons been moved a bit ,and trigger rod length and adjustments

                Ugh... I really wanted to do this with my MM2K9, but my ideas lack the skills to accomplish them right now.

                Here was My idea:
                Run the LPR in the battery housing; mounting it to the battery pack bottom. It would require some milling out of the pack because it wasn't wide enough for a microrock, but you could use a thinner LPR. It would also require some plumbing work to connect fittings for the LPR. It would be easy to route the hose because you could run it inside the pack and up through the battery terminal holes. The Emag frame is already milled for wires, so routing the LPR hose through there shouldn't be an issue all the way to the frame. There could be some geometry issues inside the frame without milling out some of the mounts for the original EMAG stuff.

                This would be really cool, in my opinion, because you could still set the trigger pull with the Emag adjustment and you already have a built in magnetic trigger return.

                I had PM'd with luke about his emag bracket, and it is only useful with RT or Emag length rails. If you went with his housing, you would have to mill off the front of your Emag frame.

                I had a couple of ideas about how to route the other hosing for the Xvalve as well (either use an ASA with L and R ports or try to work the plumbing inside the pack to have Macro fittings and hose run out of there). What I really wanted to try was to make it an EP mag with the LPR in the battery pack and the board and battery in the grip frame. I just don't have the time or the tools to do it.

                So, yes... I think it's definitely possible.

                Stay Classy, AO...

                  Nu, thats the first pneumag build I've seen using my frame, I was beginning to wonder if anyone had actually built one!

                    Hmm... maybe the microrock will fit...

                      That’s not a completly accurate statement, the manifold block is designed to be used with a stock length Automag rail too, it just sticks out past the end of the rail. (I set the mounting screws back far enough to allow for that.)

                        There would be no way to do this unless it was an EPnueMag

                          BTW i dont think mines a "Micro rock" ? They make um smaller than this . Mine made the battery sleeve ,super tight on it, and had to be sanded down.
                          I would not recommend the one on my set-up

                          Commenting on just build functionality, Your frame is amazing ,in how it roughts the hoses, out of the way of the piston

                            Ah, true... I did not qualify that. The fit is more in line with the RT length rail. Function has nothing to do with the rails.

                              Don't be confused by the man behind the curtain. . . . .

                              Nobody - There are more pics of this one available but as cougar20th said there are many subtle modifications to this one that no one has caught without me pointing them out. If interested I will elaborate in PM or you can search AO. The mods and pics are here somewhere.
