Redesigning the E-mag. Not much, nothing drastic or revolutionary. But actually something quite simple. And something that'll keep it looking probably the same as the current E-mag, foregrip and all (if wanted).
Instead of the magnet noid and the huge battery pack, try this. A pneumatic ram. Spring-return assisted too. Not an autococker ram, those are way too long for what's necessary. Since to move the sear is not even close to as long as it is to re-cock an autococker. A shorter one would be in order, like from Clippard. Plus it'd be more efficient!
But that's the overall design change. Toss the 2-way solenoid, the microchip housing, and battery all right into the front grip. All of that in place of the current Battery. So you can house that all there in the box, and keep the look. While keeping it all organized.
Now here's the key. Because you can't just have it fire like regular. Can't happen, since the fast recharge would make chronographing actually misleading and probably illegal. Afterall, if you fired fast you'd instantly be firing about 35-40fps faster than when you chronod.
So what would have to be done is a ULT. This is an important piece of the puzzle, in both a low pressure for the ram AND so that a 2-way noid can be used instead of a 4-way. This will reduce the required PSI in the ram, making it cycle faster and easier. And electronic configuration to that the on/off pin is actually in the OFF position when resting.
Meaning when you pull the trigger, the noid will make the ram actually go down, to turn the pin on/off pin "ON". Air will flow into the champer and fill up to get ready to fire. Then the ram will be made to go back up, seal the chamber with the on/off pin, and fire the marker.
Basically, it'll make it chornograph like your chorno a mechanical RT/E-mag! But without the need of a mechanical mode.
To keep it clean, the hoses can go right through either side of the frame. Just drill a couple holes, have them slide right down through. Nothing external, nothing messy or sloppy.
And best of all, the battery. Would only need to be a 9volt. And with a setup of say, a Race Frame 4-way (they're very efficient).... you can get 20, 30, maybe even 40,000 shots off of just 1 9V !
Of course ULE goodies would be nice like the mainbody and milled battery pack (now the everything-else housing for chip and stuff).
Above all, hopefully with some of the devices used it could make the cost cheaper and make the price come down. I'd hope it could. I'm not going to comment on cost since there's a lot of factors and the simple fact that these aren't mass-produced to insane numbers to cut down the cost by quantity. But I don't know about you, however if I found a brand new E-mag for $1000 on Airgun.com then I'd probably consider buying one. Since currently on airgun they're about $1300 with the design it has right now.
