@JSR: I still prefer the idea of a a shotgun to an AMR.
I suppose it varies, but take a look at Ragnarok's HEAL V1.1.
If I had to compare that to any one kind of firearm in appearance, I'd choose a shotgun of some sort, partly because the chamber looks almost as if it could be an underbarrel magazine. |

I took a look, and I want to see more
Is it posted on spudfiles? I searched for the name but couldn't find any matching topics.
Edit: just saw the other pics of it on photobucket. Also learned what to do in case of a crab battle.

I'm pretty sure that Ragnarok only posts on UKSGC.
That launcher looks really sweet though. What kind of pressure does he use in it? |

Not sure exactly whether that's a good thing, but it sounds impressive nonetheless.
@DYI: If he gets his act together, he can use slightly over 300 psi.
@Fnord: Take note of that Crab battle advice - it could be crucial to your survival. |

JSR: Is that just a regular threaded schrader valve? Not high pressure rated or anything?
I'm going off to build a multi-shot version of this with a hammer valve to trigger the pilot. Wish me luck!!! |

It's a regular schrader from a bike inner tube, not threaded but set in the epoxy.

pilot? this is a burst disk launcher  |

| You can make a pilot of some sort for a trigger cannon. Cant you? |

In a pressure differential type triggered burst disk cannon, the small volume of air in between the two disks is often referred to as the pilot.
I have to agree though, that a hammer valve gun is very different from a burst disk gun.
On a side note, I will give a cookie to anyone who can make a semi-auto pneumatic burst disk cannon. |

Hammer hits schrader, releasing air in pilot, moving piston backwards, releasing air in chamber to hit burst disk, break it, and propel projectile.
Got it, JSR?
Or, more likely, I won't use a disk at all. But I meant the basic high pressure 6mm coaxial idea I would copy.
DYI: Free cookie please? |

No cookies for anyone until I see an real life, honest-to-God semi-auto burst disk launcher that actually works. After that, if you're able to revive me, I'll give you a cookie.
Releasing air through a slow valve so that it hits a burst disk doesn't do much, because the disk blows out before the valve is fully open. The calculations have been done to prove it (by Jimmy, I think). |

I like cookies
Windshrike, a burst disk ruptures on firing. great for single shot performance but very inconvenient for a multi-shot design, so a piston valve is a better idea.
The only real way of having bust disk semi-auto is a cartridge, I came up with this. |

Oh. My. God. Please read my posts in this thread again please.
Did I not say that I would probably NOT be using a burst disk? Yes I did.

Wow thats some really fast shooting there! So a burst disk hybrid eh. Reminds me of the tippmann C3. It also has a type of burst disk but then with a cylinder and spring. Maybe this could be the ultimate project lol. I dont have much with explosives as I noticed that air is much more controllable and safe. But these speeds are worth giving it a try.
