Full Auto Airsoft Rifle (Inline Vortex)

[Davidvaini]

Well guys, Ive changed my mind.. I decided im not gonna build one... Just kidding lol!

Of course im gonna make one! I just wanna let you guys know that I changed my design idea, due to better access to other tools...

So here is an update...

I decided not to go for the classic rifle design.. its been done and its boring...


So I decided im gonna make a rifle stright out of the future.... I call it the Ballistics III.

So without further a due:






The only problem im going to face is the trigger assembly...

Does anyone know of any good trigger websites?
Any suggestions?

Mcmaster has Different blowgun-like triggers, and valves. http://www.mcmaster.com/
Their stupid site is really annoying, you can't really put a link to a direct page on their site, you just have to search for it.

Pistol grip style blowguns?

[Davidvaini]

Yeah a pistol grip style blowgun triggers..

Nice ideas... I think that a normal barrel would work best.

Pressure Washer handle. find one on mcmaster, OSH, ACE, H-Depot, etc.
btw, if you can make that, its going to be sexy

WOOOOOOWWWWW

for trigger setups, i reccomend ripping the pistol grip off a cheap spring pistol and using that to actuate a blowgun that is as smallified as possible. you could also buy a pushbutton valve off MCmaster that is actuated by the trigger.

I really like that. alot. damn........ i hope it turns out well

Little update:

Still havnt found the right trigger setup.. but I went to menards today and I found the right size pvc pipes and couplings.. I also stumbled across a cam lock... Im gonna use the cam lock for the clip system on the top/rear of the gun.. I decided that im gonna make the barrel shroud a little bit different..
Im gonna make the shroud simmilar to this guns barrel shroud..

YOu should try and make a Bullpup Gun if you want a design which i have in my head riht now Pm me because i cant be bothered to post it right now.(im supposed to be doing assignment)

Now does the ammo hull where the inline vortex block is inside.. does that chamber need to be air tight?

hmm. for a pistol grip i still reccomend a cheap spring-pistol grip. just go to dicks sporting goods and buy a pistol with a nice grip. either that or buy yourself a single shot pump airsoft shotgun. those have LOOOONNNGGG barrels....... and nice hop-ups, but you wont be using that. the pistol grip on those pump shotguns is quite easy to remove, however, and looks pretty close to the one in the picture. you just gotta manufacture youre own trigger mech...........

Man i still think that pressure washer blowguns *aka pistol grip still look nice. What is your body material going to be?

[VH_man]

yeah, im wodering that too. PVC sheet would work, either that or wood, but that gets annoyingly heavy. not to say PVC sheet wouldnt. PVC sheet would match the gun better if the whole gun was PVC though........

and also, i held a presure washer handle today, and i gotta say, if you just wrapped the thing in a few layers of black skooshy tape they use for tennis raquets and cut the trigger down some it would make a pretty mean pistol grip...............

this might be kind of expencive but it looks great and has high flow.

It needs to be airtight so all the air goes out the barrel and not any other places. I just had to seal up mine when it wasn't airtight with some superglue so it wouldn't be as permanent as primer allowing me to remove my vortex block if needed.

oooohhh. those are pretty schnazzy........
