Some Advice For the Noob ?

Aces · Thu Apr 26, 2007 6:30 pm

Hello All.. My name is Aces however im starting an airsoft group or "Company" called Xinque AirArms. So Im just really a noob at this and ive read some articles on this forum as i have really enjoyed the art of spud guns and ive created some plans to build my first one. Ive called this new BBMG: X-101 . It runs on a cloud mechanism and a blow gun trigger.

Let me tell you what my gun features

-Two Stock handles labelled Stock 1 and Stock 2
-Stock 1 is used holding the gun at the waist or somewhere not where you are in a sniping precedure
-Stock 2 is used for resting the head to the chamber and sniping down your enemys
-Cloud Chamber for excellent power
-As i hate connecting an air tube from the compressor and shooting the gun with a large giant hose, ive created an airtight chamber for the for which there will be an input and output. 1. Input goes into the chamber and
from the output the airtubes goes to the blow gun
-Large chamber for bbs for more shots
-Easy plug at the end of chamber for loading bbs
-Rear stock for easier handling
-Long barrel for straighter shots

[ Id like to hear some more advice from the community of SpudFiles as i would greatly appreciate it. I personally think my work is good for a noob, but i need some more pro advice from the people around here. Thanks Alot ! ]

Hey, mabee you could add some photos. Im having a really hard time picturing it and i would relly like to give you some input. P.S. welcome to spudfiles, we will value your opinions because of your backround in air soft.

Also, if you have the time, you can add a vortex block to your gun which works better than and is more reliable than a cloud BBMG. If you are interested check this link out to find out how to make one. http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/inline- ... t5259.html

more reliable?
ahahah I don't think so.
but for his purpose a vortex would be better.

and you might want to have a better air reservoir such as a compressed nitrogen tank in a backpack/

You seem to be intelligent and know how do do research so I hope you project comes out well.

Well...My vortex gun is reliable; its an inline and never jammed and is easy to take apart too. But clouds are simpler to take apart when they get jammed, so I can see why they are more reliable.

for your design though i dont see how you can make it a cloud. wait i just checked it out. well i can see how it could be consider a cloud. it looks like a good design though. good luck with the gun!

Thanks Alot Guys Appreciate the support btw, would you think my air tank be good enough to hold in that much air?

I mean, it seems to me that purple primer and that two part glue seems to be strong but i dont think it would be strong enough to hold all that compressed air in... Unless what if what i heard was true, Is it true that that two part glue literally melts the contacting points together?

Kenny_McCormic · Sat Apr 28, 2007 8:05 pm

yes thats why its called solvent welding the solvend literaly dissoles the pipe and melts it together plenty of people have built air chambers however the cloud/vortex design eats alot of air and that tiny resivor wont even have enuf air to get the gun firing you need paintball co2 tank and a palmer stabalizer female a 20oz tank is good for ~5k shots depending on blowgun and chamber volume. and make it an inline vortex with these plans http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/inline- ... t5259.html it will drop right in to the orriganal design and makes it work better

Yeah, seeing as you have a good head on but few post on spudfiles I'd say look around for a good while at other peoples info, come to your own conclusions then build your gun with any improvements you might have learned from here. Your gun sound like it will work well. Good Luck! Spud
