Thanks JSR, and no, it's not specifically for WWII milsim. That gun in the picture looks pretty cool... funny you should bring that up, today a couple of friends an I were discussing making it all tacticool... Rails, an M203, possibly an EoTech. :lol: I would hate to disgrace such a beautiful gun, b...

After a bit of digging around the internet, I found some 13" tall .50 cal ammo cans- plenty enough space for a 20oz. paintball tank. (If anyone actually has one, could you measure the height on it, just to double check for me?) Now I'm either thinking to try mounting that on the gun itself, or to at...

You will be best off using an anti-siphon system. I've had to install them for myself and other while playing paintball and the difference is immediately noticeable. So how easy is it to install an anti-siphon system on a 20oz. tank? I'm a real stickler for aesthetics, hoses sticking out would anno...

I think you'll find this interesting and inspirational ;) One word: Beautiful I do agree, that was my first inclination, BBs in the reciever and CO2 in the ammo can. The only problem I found while researching this is that when a CO2 canister is operated laying sideways, it will spray liquid CO2 int...

Wow jsr, that's pretty slick looking. I'd love to see some pics when (if) you do make a plywood shell for it. :) My only problem is that there is so little space in the reciever, and I already have pretty much everything destined to fit in there. I know that the PVC in the mag doesn't hold ammo, but...

Not a problem... So I should probably use a section of maybe 3" PVC pipe for holding the ammo instead of just letting it sit there?

:oops: I thought there was a spring that pushed the ammo to the front, towards the vortex block... sorry, I was mistaken. *Facepalm*

So the ammo chamber has to actually be airtight? I was under the impression that it just held bbs to be sucked into the votex...

Rough BBMG Plans

Okay, so today I attempted to make some rough plans for my airsoft Browning 1919 BBMG in Paint. Please excuse the cruddy diagram, I was trying my best, but there's only so much quality you can get with Microsoft Paint. :wink: On the far right, there will be an air blower valve thing disguised as a t...

Sounds good to me. Thanks for that, I hadn't any idea of how large it should be. Hmmm... Also, does the vortex block Have to be the exact diameter of the pvc pipe? Like if I have a 2" chamber, does my block have to be 2" tall to divide the pipe in half?

Haha. :D I'm pretty sure that you all are incorrect. In fact, string does not even exist! If my calculations are correct... [checks calculations] Darn it! I thought I was on the verge of a breakthrough! :( But on a more serious note, I will try to get a good drawing up. Gun freak, you will probably ...

Thanks, but the link disn't work for me. Although, I appreciate the thought. Lol, I think I'm just going to build it. I mean, I can always experiment with all that technical stuff later. :wink:

Regulator

I apologize for the repetitive questioning on the same topic, now I am being relatively rushed to start my BBMG project. Could anyone reccomend a good, cheap CO2 regulator? It will be used on a five pound or smaller tank, and will be hooked up to an inline vortex BBMG, if that makes a difference. Al...
