Interesting, that string is pain tho i wonder if you could replace it somehow or hide it.
Now to wonder how long till it ends up in bits in the workbench thread? im not saying high pound braided fishing line is a option fully but it might work if you can find a way to hide it internaly somewhere and bundle it in there.
I’d be more interested in making a mag that has less capacity and doesn’t protrude out the bottom with no string… But I guess if you want to use it at a field it’s a decent option.
Gas reservoir is in the buffer tube on these models, according to the manual it came with there’s one version that’s a fixed stock that takes CO² bulbs.
Will investigate additional magazine options in the future thou.
This has got some very decent range too, easily shooting the 15m-20m to the tree in my yard and with a modest spread, used the Ausgel elite V2 that were on hand but will test other softer gels tomorrow and attempt a chrono.
Yeah that protruding magazine does look a little less offensive on the tactical model than on the more traditional shotties, for sure. I think even I could live with that.
Would look great with a Defiance stock on it… more comfy cheek weld too.
I know that energy is distributed amongst all the gels fires but still, if it shoots uneven amounts and happens to have one gel left, thats gonna sting.
At first I was too close and it was giving me readings of like 1500fps at 1200rpm, obviously the gas and there was a visible plume of vapour coming out, took a step back and it was fine.
Nice work @DChapo !
I have thought about this shotgun… since I only run gas pistols for cqb… and sometimes run the 40mm as a sort of offhand blunderbuss… I think the small shotty could have a place for giggles.
Ordering one! Might just be Gel Ball Nobody’s desperate attempt to remain relevant
I wonder…
There must be a better way , to deal with the tea bag string…
Maybe replace it with fishing wire ( stronger, less visible)
And, have some way of restraining it , so it bound to and travels around the body of the mag, as it retracts.
Maybe even cut a mag in half, so it fits flush…less string hanging out too…
