pressurized shells

[Eddbot]

ok, i was thinking about real bullets and trying to figure out a way to contain the energy needed for each shot in the round (like a real bullet w/gunpowder) then i thought of a 12 gram CO2 cartridge, then thought too much for one shot, so i came up with this:



it's partially based on someones pen gun (can't remember who, i think it was JSR) the schreader is the fill and exhaust, and the projectile goes in the shell, when it's in the gun (that hasn't been made yet), pin on gun opens schreader-> projectile moves not as far as expected. yeah, it's low volume, but high pressure, and i can shoot anything that isn't toooo heavy, like a bb or something
then i can base a gun around the shell and all it has to do is open the valve

[spudy buddy]

that sound like it might work although not a very big range, and how many cartriges would you have?

[elitesniper]

one question why would you put fins on a bb?

[e1337]

I think it would work, but the range would be better if you had a pipe the same diameter as the barrell stationary on the actual gun (firing Thingy) and then had the cartridges revolving (Like the Eclispe By Solar).

i saw ants thing, and was thinking about it when i made this in paint and was too lazy to go back and change because i had already uploaded it, so i just left it

[Hotwired]

one question why would you put fins on a bb?

Because its dam hard to patent a spherical pellet?

[Eddbot]

yeah, that's the one

Asahi M40 pre charged shells

Less than 25 of these left.

for reasons which I have yet to fathom, this idea sounds vaguely familiar

Totally useless comment posted here was removed Good luck with the shells

@JSR: Really? You shock me.
Well, as we've got JSR around, there is clearly no chance of original ideas any more.

Na, I'm hardly surprised anyone has made plans for such a thing. Just as long as you don't find out my plans for the combustion BB minigun...

@Nova: It's your computer.

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

what original ideas?

[Ragnarok]

Well, yeah, I know it's old hat in the airgun world, but has anyone actually succeeded in making a spudgun that uses a cartridge yet?

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

As far as prelaoded cartridges goes, the was my combustion cartridge prototype, not a completed project but close enough

[Eddbot]

god damn it, i thought i finally came up with something (partially) original, thanks for ruining my hopes and dreams guys, maybe you'll see me lying in a ditch somewhere waiting for a good idea with an empty bottle of jim beam in my hand

edit: DAMN!! 8 pages on it too, i never even saw that, *sigh*
