LEE10

[farcticox1]

This might be my final build for awhile, I've built pretty much everything I want, well maybe that target pistol

I'm calling it the LEE10, ammo is 10mm ball bearings, magazine will hold 10, bipod from BFG will fit, making iron sights for this one.

Will be roughly the same scale as the Lee Enfield

And so it begins

You're a machine for producing these weapons, I like that. It looks good the project, with 10mm of ammunition, you are going to hunt buffaloes? I'll be watching for updates.

Playing with the trigger switch a bit, the slide has 4mm of travel to actuate the micro switch.

Finally got the trigger to fit, very tight.
Just hope the valve is quick enough, spec. for valve is 20-80ms for complete cycle

And working on the sights, adjustable elevation and windage.

[hectmarr]

looks good, and neat construction.

Love the sight, again impressive what you can do with basic tools and a lot of patience.

Moved my assembly bench inside as

Put some more parts together.

Some 'Golden Gun' work, the short tube holds 5 rounds

Locking good:) are you going for single shoot? In my AK6 i need to go over 20volts to make it trigger at 20bar and 25bar i use 30v. My is rated for 12v and 20bars:P So boost the voltage and it should go faster! Ad a capacitor. btw do you have a link on the solenoid valve?

[farcticox1]

I am using 24Vdc 1Amp unregulated power supply, so it sits at about 30V when it's not loaded.

Single shot with a self loading bolt action. The valve is rated for 10bar max and the stock/chamber is PVC so I can't go over that anyway

This is the valve https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/Sh ... -2BC4A-24D

On the plus side it is very light and it cost me $0.00, my favourite price

[Gnarp]

I see. Sounds good. Think you will get some power out of solenoid at your PSI ratings:P

Have tried my 3way solenoid up to 50bars and 10mm steel balls! It was rely hard to get it to open:( i can just say holy fuc# ! Got 100 jouls of energy! The recoil was insane! Dumped a hole soda stream true the qev in ms hehe

But i got a bit bored to make bolt-action guns, i want semi-auto, much more complex and tinkering for me . hehe

But ho knows maybe i make a 10mm again:P Have found some seamless precision pips for the barrel:P

[farcticox1]

I'm just happy when they work

It's about the journey, not the destination
