We shall soon see if these modification of a vortex block helps.
By cutting away the bottom of the block, but only in front, BBs will be allowed to pour in from the front of the block as well as the sides, raising the ROF. The block with this mod was an accident, when the acrylic chipped while being drilled. As many of you know or should know, you can't exactly sell damaged stuff, so I tried to salvage it by changing it a bit.

Yeah, he chipped the block he was making for me, but I think it will work just as good, if not better. Btw noname, rmich is right. You are coming up with so many new ideas for vortex guns. Vortex blocks really haven't changed, and you are really the only one trying to pioneer new designs. If you come up with a more efficient, more powerful design, you could sell them and make a LOT of money!

What I meant to say was does it give the gun any kind of performance boost? And that it was smart of you to not waste the block once it broke.

The same case applies to your post Kobl. What was the point? You want one or something? PM me if so, like you quoted.
Wannabie, it
should, in theory, give a better feed rate and boost the ROF.
Da Pneu Kid, would you still want this kind or a normal one. I was going to use this one for testing and make a new one for you, but whatever.

If you want to use that one for testing, I don't wanna take it. Just make me a regular one. Remember, I want it for .177 cal BBs.

Come to think of it, I need to mail this one. The hole is already drilled for .177 BBs, and when widening holes in acrylic, it shatters. I tried to take a shortcut and drill a small easy hole, then use that one to line up the 5/16" hole needed for airsoft. The block shattered into several pieces and I learned my lesson.
