A BB machine gun is a device designed to shoot large numbers of small diameter ammo, typicaly steel BBs or plastic airsoft bbs. Their air consumption is greater than average and require a co2 tank and regulator to be fielded.
There are a couple common designs:
- A cloud chamber agitates the projectiles by blowing the air stream up through them. The agitated bbs then get sucked into the barrel.
- A vortex block blows the bbs around and around the inside of larg-ish diameter hole, which has a tangetal hole leading to the barrel drilled in it.
- A vortex cap blows the bbs around similar to a vortex block but is used in smaller situations. Designed by Gatorlangman AKA DavidVaini the design incorporates a standard PVC or metal cap as the vortex wall. This results in a smaller design and can be incorporated into smaller projects.
