can be threaded in standard fittings & they've got threaded shafts

What I was trying to say is that it would help to keep everything servicable and you could use a regular 3/4" or 1" pipe for the main housing. While it wouldn't be easier to add a slit for the charging handle it would definitely survive longer than a copper one

After my experiences with the "valveless" cartridge pneumatic I'm confident I can get this to work without external forces cycling the bolt, testing due this evening if the cartridge and bolt are sufficiently cured.

external forces cycling the bolt

Ohh I didn't say you've got to use air to extend retract the air cylinder.... I'd use it becasue it is a ready made thing that is good at uhmmm extending and retracting... plus it would make fine tuning easy - you know pump it up to higher/lower pressure

Ah, you mean gas spring instead of coil spring?

yeah

get a ps3 and find out

OK, this isn't going anywhere - the forces involved are a bit too much.

Here it is at 5x, really weak in terms of power, it destroyed the thick rubber extractor while still slightly chipping the cartridge, and to top it all off the cartridge knocked the camera over

I added a spacer to the spring to increase compression and gave it a whirl at 7x, this time with the camera out of harms way. Again, just a dent in a steel sheet but it destroyed the rear epoxy endcap and bent the bolt itself out of shape.

Here's the damage, back to the drawing board...

I think you may need a thicker bolt or better support for it somehow. it seems that that bolt rod is extremely flexible, and susceptible to bending as a result.

Maybe use a tougher spring? Maybe use a prolongation tube, in which the cartridge goes, so that even when it begins to cycle, gases continue to be pushed in the only way possible : the barrel.

?

What about an air spring? A telescoping cylinder... should be within reach in terms of either building such a thing or using a purpose-made pneumatic cylinder.

I say because threaded rod/bolts are usually more flexible than equivalent sized tubing, or so I've found when building my pump.

@mark.f
now the whole world knows that you built a p**** pump
lol

JSR listen to what POLAND_SPUD has suggested - that guy really knows his stuff (yeah, now you're not the only person referring to himself in 3rd person)

JSR is so not going to listen to any of you that he's going to take the cartridge to 8x and blow up the breech

That's all for this evening, it's pancake tuesday and I have make bacon fish

and POOF! that was your breach
You don't want that next to your face...

I'm looking forward to some new tests!

I suggest that you may be able to solve all of the problems by changing the design of the bolt housing, and making the bolt far thicker. Using a much thicker bolt, it could retract into a rear cylindrical housing with a close tolerance, and enclosing the spring entirely in the housing. As I hope you're aware, it's possible to purchase springs with insane spring constants on McMaster...

It's one of those things that just couldn't have been predicted

What are you going to do tomorrow night?




Wow don't you think it sounds a LOT more menacing in german...?
