Hello,

As the the heading states I'm looking for the dimensions of a Airsoft rifle bolt assembly, I've recently brought a lathe and wish to build a Airsoft rifle.

Any help appreciated

I used carbon fibre tubing for a experimental barrel, problems i found was the internal wall was very ruff and had a joint/ seam in it and when i polised this out left me with a undesirable id. so would be better if you can see the carbon before buying. but other than that very strong and more flex ...

Didn't even think of camo tape might be a good idea and its not to expensive .

Mako,
I would love to keep it clean metal it does look impressive bare, but it would just be ornamental as in the world of airsoft I would stick out like a sore thumb lol.
So I think a very high quality paint job and ghillie cover.

Thanks nick,
I will be camoing it out but what design camo I'm not sure was thinking maybe a digital design but who bows that my change later lol.

If you search wyz2285 on YouTube he's made a nice Bob machine gun and the thing screams he also has a video on how to mod a paintball tank. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIXYqGoatsw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiiw28BjsKQ&list=PLE5674B80C6C17CB3&index=9 Both these videos if you haven't seen them...

Cheers mako, At first I was going to use it as a general hitting cans in the back garden, But I have started to get back in to Airsoft so I think it will be used for Airsoft. I'm hoping to be able to out range most over snipers on the field and I'm playing about with some hop up and barrel configura...

Quick update not done a great deal due to work and other things that come first. but i have put a large amount together.
and mainly working on internals and seeing if i can build a injection air reservoir for this gun.

Found this kit is it worth the money?

Building the frame I know just don't know about components!

Thanks for the replays been watching youtube and got some idea now just need to play about and get used to it.

Evilvet how much should I be looking at spending to make one, and how accurate can they be?

OK so I'm going back to college still not a lot of work in the uk so thought I would advance my skills instead this time I am going to learn computer aided design and I'm sure there are a fair few people on here with experience in the field. My course doesn't look like its going to start till Septem...

Why don't you make one along the same lines as wyz2285 design



Using a qev and a 3 way to pilot it.

Nice, maybe one day I will go but I'm at my last vits with the uk be nice just to live somewhere where the people are polite and courteous and friendly,

Thanks wyz2285 after posting I come across your YouTube video but thanks for the link you have some very useful and knowledgeable videos on there.
Where did you find the digital regulator?

I'm born and bred British and I hate the uk and can't stand living here and Canada has been somewhere I have considered moving to. Only my son keeping me here as he don't live with me
Glad to here you enjoyed it there did wonder where you had got to!
