nice... i've been working on one too lol... you just have more time than me to build it haha... does yours operate the same way as the militarys though? by that i mean do you slide it forward to load a new one, because that is what the one i am building does,... when i finish i will post pictures, i'm just crazy busy right now haven't had time to do much building, only design :( :( :( :(

Video describing the gun and how it fires...


Video of it firing...



The reason I uploaded the videos on youtube just recently is because Stage6 shut down.

well with our setup we were forced to have the air and the barrel inline with each other... You will get better performance when they are perpendicular with each other but yeah... take a picture of your current setup and post it so I can see what is wrong... it might just be that you dont have enough air in your lungs ;)

aaaaaahahahahahhaa nope, its way too big, not consistent shooting at all..

crap i have no more endcaps, will have to make a home depot run for about 10.... cuz i'll probably screw it up about 8 times or so....darnit... would you recommend having the bb hole and air hole as close to the bottom of the endcap as possible?

crap, i want an endcap... I'll let you know as soon as i can about the results... if its not working i'll let you know
