    Another pneumag showoff thread



    It's not completely done. I just need a trigger and some grips for it. There's nothing special about it other then the fact that I used a bushmaster frame that I got from MCB (Thanks Thelar!). I'd also like to thanks wanna-b-ballin for the minimag body and the x valve on-off. I really lucked out on the frame. It just so happens that a MPA-3 fits perfectly in the top of the frame. The only downside is that the hump on the guard is in the way of the VA. If I had a rt rail that probably wouldn't be a problem...

    I've shot it and I must say that it's really nice. I don't know how fast I was shooting exactly, but I was really impressed.

      Lol, I knew someone would comment on that.

      I spent a good hour trying to make an aluminum bracket, but in the end, zip ties turned out to be the most elegant solution.

      I've got them really latched down tight, so I doubt it'll go anywhere.

        you can get some moldable plastic for real cheap...might be something to try, its easy to use and very lightweight.

          I like it. I think with whatever solution you find to mount a VA adapter, it'll turn out looking pretty unique.
          Goodjob, and keep us posted.

            Have you tried it with a 15 degree ASA?

              That's a great idea.

                I've thought about a 15 degree asa, but it would be a pain to have to drill and tap it. Also, does anyone still make those?

                    Do what Punisher would do, and use more zip ties!

                      Holy crap, I just realized something.

                      Why not just use a fore-grip extender? I could even make one of those myself.

                              lol your welcome. i'm glad to see its going towards an awsome gun.
                              and if you want to use an RT rail, the little peg on the body is already shaped.
