Fun with coiled mags

.

 

Is that the stuff you were playing with before or something new? Looks good though.

 

Same stuff.

 

I've been wondering if anybody had come up with an alternative magazine concept, especially since my haymaker's mag has gone and crapped out on me.

Lo and behold, it did happen. what's the parts list on this mag setup? are you using a barbed attachment and 1/4 tubing and a PTA on the end?

 

Does the plastic fitting require much "Machining" to hold the o-ring?

 

is that a plasic Mag?

yeppers.

it's the same sort of hard tubing that we use for the main CO2 lines, but instead of 1/8", it's 1/4" which has an inside diameter the same as our standard copper mag tubes (0.19)

that's the next item on my grocery list. Steve posted a link on my build page for the 1/4" hose if you need it

 

can you use the bigger house on the guns instand of both?

FYI, the coiled tubing doesn't feed bb's out of the box. It needs to be prepped for that. This involved squeezing the tubing along it's length in a flat faced vice to open it up. Since nylon tends to go back to it's original shape, I wasn't expecting this to hold but it did feed bb's a few days after the process. I haven't checked since but I'll pull it out of the box tonight and see if it's still feeding bb's.

 

cool, good to know

 

Pulled the coiled plastic mag out of storage over the weekend. Still feeding bb's just fine.
