Magazine For Paintballs

Can I get some options on if I used a magazine that is gravity fed as the balls are fired another one drops down.

Or should I make the “T” rotate around the barrel, and the balls just drop into the chamber when Vertical with the barrel. So that you can close off the magazine inlet into the barrel.

Does any one know of any good websites for some Magazines

thanks

It works ok, but put o rings where the barrel joins onto the tee, and one on the oppisite side, this will allow you to piont it at the ground without loseing the whole magazine.

thanks heaps for that, would it be better if i was to make it rotate around the barrel. If a paint ball is 18mm waht size would i make the oring. And would you just glue the ring into place.

i tried something like that but instead of paintball i was using airsoft bbs... it was a complete failure :cry: . but it might work for painballs if you use o-rings as said above.

Just put a cap on the magazine, this will keep the paintballs in.

i did it with marbles and it works best with an o-ring and a spring to force the ammo downword and worked great.
