Looks pretty good. I like the "bow drawing" nature of charging the thing.

Also, that looks like your stereotypical spudder's bedroom. What kind of homemade plumbing furniture is that? :mrgreen:

Ah, that makes sense. I should probably invest in making some of those since all I have are rings and buckets of sand to use until the gyms open back uip.

Got everything working, charging and loading is now from the side handle, the front grip is fixed, this allowed me to cut off a bit of weight as well. :o

Neat, is that tubing the magazine? If so how are you handling loading one round at a time?

Yes the tube at the rear is the magazine, it holds 22 BBs and gravity feeds one at a time when the plunger goes down, the last few don't feed well as they are horizontal and are not pushed from above, so I normally shoot like 10 then reload it.

Nice work. Any plans for adding a spring-driven magazine to the other one you started on?

Yes, something similar, if I can make it work it should be good.
