    Pneumags: It'd be nice if...

    It'd be nice if when you pulled the trigger and held it down, the mpa3 piston wouldn't stay out. A toggle with every pull. It would make for faster rates of fire and less short stroking. Any way to make this happen?

    This would also eliminate the problem I had with my attempt at a pnuemag conversion of a semi-blowback, as it would only let the sear fall once. With the semi-blowback, it would run away unless you could get that MPA-3 open and closed within 1/50 of a second.

    hmm... I'll think about it again...

      That's my chief complaint with pneumags too. Also that you can hear air venting when you hold down the trigger.

      That's why I think the EP setup would be way better.

        anyone else have any suggestions or ideas? I really just want to cut back on chuffing or short stroking. Doesnt fire as consistent as I'd like. My walking ability is fine, so its not that. Maybe moving the mpa3 back so that it only tripped the sear when piston fully extended? I dunno... gimme something to work with....

            I would like a typical fireams disconnector linkage on the MSV-2 that would get reset at the end of the mpa-3/sear travel. It would hold the msv-2 down and disconnect the trigger until the sear traveled all the way back and returned to 'battery'. That would take some precision I can't get on my dremel. You might be able to do it with another actuator and three-way, but then you might as well get an autococker.
