    If I ever build a mag again this is the one I want to get right.

    The minigun mag.

    The original build. This thing made me feel sooo good to empty a case of paint without a single chop over and over again. Just mechanical perfection with the rotor and mag.

    I want to use two warp feeds and a back pack hopper with hoses to feed a gun more like the real thing. The original was crude and made with basic hand tools and a drill press. The point was to have endless ammo. Now days I have money and am not always broke I think this will be the project I re-visit. It is true I have moved on to bigger projects like little red. That’s a 2022 f450 regular cab dully, super singled on comercial 44s. Lockers…. It’s a monster truck that can handle 4 tons payload and a 40k lb trailer. I digress.

    I still have a Luke customs remote EP block. He does not make these annymore. Also I have a full shop these days. The last time I did this was all hand tools and junk I had around the house.

    Hope all are doing good and remember, try it. You never know it might work.

    Btw this is little red. The start of the build.

    Thanks. Every time I get into my paintball stuff I get that old itch. I really want to redo the mini gun mag. The difference is not I have a shop full of tools not just basic hand tools, a drill press and a hammer lol.

    I sold/made a total of 23 of these but it took many (many) years to get rid of them. IIRC Tunaman got the last one a few years back. That said I've never seen a completed build besides yours.

    I was also hoping if there were more resources available, then more people would tinker and have fun.

    People tinker far less than you might think, TK found that out with the Slug bodies, 99% people just dont tinker on that level.

    I'll never build one again, but if I did, it'd be just like my old one. Maybe move the asa to the bottom.
