Tinkerton Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Hi all, after some help from anybody that owns a Tanaka shotgun, or a shotgun that uses the same shells, so tanaka, madbull, or airsoft surgeon shells. I really need to know the outer diameter of the main shell body for a project i'm working on. Can anyone help? Link to post Share on other sites
DEVILHUNTER Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 The AS shells are something like 19.5 mm (tomorrow I can give you the exact number) and 58.5 mm long. What are you building? Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Something shotgun shell based for the Arnies Custom Build Competition cheers for the measurements, is it definately under 20mm diameter? Link to post Share on other sites
wildething Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 just checked with tape measure Devilhunter is pretty much right can't get any more accurate with stuff i got Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Awesome, cheers guys. Dont suppose either of you two want to sell two shells? Also, could either of you give your best guess as the the diameter of the firing pin on the back? Link to post Share on other sites
DEVILHUNTER Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 I get measures between 19.55 and 19.65 so yes, it's under 20 mm. Some of my ideas for the competition also use this shells The firing pin is 6.25 mm in a hole of 10.20-10.25 mm. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Brilliant, thats fantastic devilhunter! Are they the tanaka shells or the madbull ones? Link to post Share on other sites
DEVILHUNTER Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Airsoft Surgeon ones, I don't have my Tanaka's here to measure them. Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Do you by any chance use cad programmes? Cause I have actually been designing a m26.. so I've drawn the Madbull shells from measurements taken with a caliper in 3D.. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 blobface: that would be great! I use prodesktop, but I'm not sure what files it can accept. I'll let you know later tonight. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Looks like it takes a whole host of files. Send me a link in a PM and i'll have a look, cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
