correct me if im wrong, but dont combustions need time to vent after every shot? if so, put a swinging hatch on the back with a locking mechanism. also a chamber fan would aid in speedy fireing

Yea morpherman's got a good point. Unless you're going to be injecting both fuel and air at the same time.

a chamber fan is usless for venting unless you have an opening behind it for it to suck air from. a small ball vaulve would do the trick but you would have to open and close it each time sort of defeating the repeater part

The magazine is not air tite to the muzzel so any venting would occur during cocking? I dont want it to be Anold going bezerk on a pump action shot gun like BANG BANG BANG BANG!! Coz the heat build up would melt the ignition witch is a problem I've had woth my muzzel loader. If I get motavated i can get 3 to 4 shots off pritty quick and the heat just fries the buttons. Its just so i dont have to screw around taking end caps off putting ammo in spray then end cap on with out vaper dispersing then fire. it would be fire. Oh wow what a good shot open breach blow into breach then cock then fire again. If you know what i mean?
