Sorry, double posted the same thing.

lol. Ouch. I'm 14, and did not invent that system..

I'm not too interested in air, because I'm very inexperienced with it.

I was thinking a spring powered, magazine fed, airsoft gun. But now, I'm confused as to if it is possible or not. I have never made a potato gun nor intend to. ( Also not ...

On nerfhaven.com. Their forums provide excellent designs and ideas for all manners of homemade weapons.

Edit: seen the link.

Hmmm, A hammer valve sounds complicated to house. I don't understand how it would look, how it would fit into the stock or whatnot..

A wraith system uses two valves, with an air chamber in between. Fill the entire weapon with air pressure by filling it with Valve A open. Close Valve A. When you ...

Okay, please do.

Would a wraith system work for this type of thing also?

Hmmm, I guess I'll have to look around haha. I'll keep some updates on this topic in the next few hours. ( or days )

hmmm... So air is the way to go... Would I be able to get more power out of a weaker spring then? Because, if so, I could draw up some new plans and show them?

I don't know how to make a nub. I've had some ideas, but most of them wouldn't quite work for me. I could examine a tippmann A-5's cocking handle if that is what you are talking about?

Hmmm... would this still work, even without using any air to propel the BB?

with this setup, you would need to cock the hammer every time. I think he is trying to use it as the hammer in a hammer valve. IMHO, you could do better with a heavily modded blowgun, depending on caliber, especially if you design a blow forward bolt. In your picture I don't see any kind of hopper ...

To work it, you pull back the cocking handle, which pulls back the entire cocking mechanism, which, in turn, compresses the spring. The firing spring pushes the firing pin back at this point to allow a BB to enter the chamber. Pulling the trigger realeases the sear, which realeases the compressed ...

It's not so much a piston, as the back part is the trigger catch, and the front is just to keep the rod from wobbling around too much and missing the firing pin. This will be quite simple to make for me, and by using a hammer valve I would be using air. Correct? If I did use that though, would I ...

Plans I thought up for an airsoft sniper springer. Yellow is the cocking mechansim, dark blue is springs, red is the firing pin ( That's what it's ...
