I-15 HPA

A while back I threw together a BBmg around a HPA system. Unfortunately aesthetics were quite lacking and after some use the swivel joint on the remote snapped rendering it unsafe. I decided to completely scrap the old shell and start over.
I came up with this BBmg. It has most of the same parts as the old one but, it is a much cleaner design. This design is coaxial which allows it to be quite compact.(Not sure if this has been done before.) It is only 18 inches long. It employs an adjustable hop-up system. To counteract the leakage I have encountered from blowguns under high pressure I bought a push button valve from McMasters. The magazine cap is held on by a locking mechanism. The body is formed from melted PVC pipe and the serrated muzzle guard was made with my dremal.
I am unable to give an exact muzzle velocity but, I did try the can penetration test.http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/a ... ulletID=34 Judging from the fact that it penetrated the top and the continued on to penetrate the side I estimate a 650 Fps .2 BB at 700 PSI.
