what if one was to use a bolt action mechanism to hold a burst disk as a valve as well, one could load the ammo, put a burst disk and reset the bolt.

Thoughts?

something like this?

I can't remember where or what it was called, but I do recall something similar. The guy had a "triggered burst disk" which was actually a broadhead arrow head that he used to puncture the burst disk and he loaded the disk very similar to this. His reload time was awesome for a burst disk pneumatic.

I'll try to find the link.

Edit: It seems that Gort did it here.

ok it seems im not the only one who came up with this kind of idea, its damn hard to get originality around here

I was more thinking of a standard bolt action mechanism, but a burst disk is placed at the back of the bolt sandwiched between a rubber washer on the end of the bolt and one at the chamber. Havn't got time for a diagram just yet.
