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.
I don't think it is a Bob Long Creation although from the outside you may see some similarities to the Timmies.
Im quoting John Sosta who works for NPS Europe. We had a short conversation about these on the phone and I seem to recall something being said about Bob Schlong. I/we may be wrong though as is nearly always the case
does anyone else find the massive amounts of wiring/tubing just a tad rube-goldbergian?
Also, does anyone know how it functions? Does that brass ram move the bolt/striker forward and that spring push it back (the back spring in front of the ram). dont BKO's work that way?
seems like a retrofitted spyder
looking at the exploded view i would GUESS (listen i said guess i dont know fo sure!) but i would guess the front deally is a LP reg of sorts (i guess it really doesnt need to be, but wheres the fun in that!) that takes HP air from the frontside of the valve cuts it down to "LP" whatever that mayne... and pumps it back to the 'noid, then the 'noid when opened sends the LP air its being fed into the butt end of the gun, kicking that hammer/ram thinggy forward into the valve, opening the valve and making the shot (of course the hammer ram thinggy is attached to the bolt who is along for the ride).
do i get a cookie if im right?
Tom was the last of a now extinct breed, a breed of players who build a community, a breed of owners who gave to the sport never taking more than what they deserved. I hope to see you at the feild again some day....
Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.
uses a 1 way solenoid(or would you say 2?). Basically the hammer is pushed forward with air, recocked with a spring, similar to bko and the em1 when it was around. Looks cheap to me, maybe because the grips, trigger guard and trigger all look stupid, too high tech low quality stuff. Just put normal grips on it, normal sounded trigger and a smooth rounded guard, too many people make drastic stuff for the trigger area making it look stupid.
