This was a design and idea i've thought up since i didn't have materials to make a vortex block ... and the Vortex Cap on spudwiki seems cumbersome because of the sticking out magazine though i have no idea how Davidvaini (sorry if i spelt ur user wrong) made his vortex cap inline with his P90.

Yeah well this is an alternative for noobs like me on making a vortex cap with limited materals... tho Davidvaini idea's good too but i want to make mine inline....

Hey Davidvaini if you have any idea how i can make your vortex inline could you please tell me? cause i was goign to go on the lines of your weapon...

Don't start crying when I play this as my hobby, Paintball, Airsoft and Nerf are equally good hobbies, except you can play Nerf in public. Good day! Hmph!

That idea is good, but I'm not sure you would even need the skirts on the vortex block. I have tried to make a vortex block that way before and it didn't turn out too good because I found it pretty hard to drill in the right place on a round pipe without the drill bit trying to slide off the side of the pipe.

haha! thats what i was thinking but i thought of like putting a piece of support triangular support wood like so i can drill a hole into that into the pvc pipe... obviously u'd probably have to glue the wood on ... i reckon it's easier then doing a vortex block... and i have no idea how davidvaini made his vortex cap inline XS
