Does anybody have pictures (such as exploded diagrams) of the internals of a bolt action airsoft sniper rifle? (As in, bolt action spring rifles). I've tried drawing up my own, but can't figure out how to get it compact and working smoothly.

Thanks :wink:

If you want to make one, good luck as the piston needs to be extremely lighweight and in aluminium with a good spring to get pretty low fps with .2 g's

He used nerfs at 150 fps tough ...

A mini with integrated pump can be as small but much mor powerful (thats what i am building right now)

You could try a lever action, i saw one somewhere ...

http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/spring- ... 16233.html i guess this is a pretty simple look at the system. what i usually do is look on youtube. there's usually a bunch guy that try to explain how things work. youtube is one of my primary choices for a search engine (i know it's not really a search engine). it has so much info from real people with cameras.

Have a scroll through here, it's not dramatically different from AEGs in terms of layout, you just have manual instead of electric cocking.
