Hey all,

Has anyone else successfully made a working combustion repeater able to make multiple shots?

I have just finished making my first fully operational one and was just wandering if anyone else has had any success??

Mine uses Butane as fuel and shoots round pellets. Pump action on the foregrip injects the fuel/air, vents exhaust and at same time loads the next pellet into the barrel.

Interested to hear how others have managed to make theirs, if any.

Cheers

Commercially the Tippmann C3 Paintball Marker is a pump action combustion repeater.

Our resident Argentine virtuoso has made several repeaters including a semi-automatic hybrid that works very well:



The alternative to having a fuel-injecting system is to use pre-fueled cartridges, that might also be built in a way to eject and reload automatically, here was an early attempt that I never really took further but it showed some promise.
