MadBull C02 conversion.

Ok first off, this thread isn't about the FPS this thing will pump out, so SHH no one mention it.

 

To me it doesn't look like it's gunna work... a C02 powered gear box.. EH?

 

By the looks of it, the C02 bulb would go where the motor would, how on earth will that fit in an AEG grip.

Also the recoil bar thing poking out the top, where would that go? The only AEG i can think of with room for that poking out the top is an AK.

 

They also say it's out April... April fools anyone?

Yeah, I don't think it is a joke, I think it is a great idea.

 

My 1991 Shell-Ejecting Marui MP5 has a gas cannister (134a of course) that goes into the pistol grip, much like this design would. You'd need a replacement for the grip cap -- instead of screw-mount it would need to be a trap door design so you can change the co2 bulb easily.

 

The picture is obviously just a CAD rendering. Any info on the MadBull company? Will they really complete it?

 

And it should be adjustable for power -- there could be a 328 fps version.

 

Recoil?? Will it make the bolt cover blow back and forth on models where it would be possible (like the G3)?

If they're smart they'll ship it with an adapter so that you can run it from an external CO2 tank with a better regulator, that way you can make it operate below UK fps limits.

If they're even smarter they'll make the internal regulator adjustable aswell, so that you have the choice of running it at sane FPS levels with the internal 12g CO2 capsule too.

This will obviously also lead to more shots per capsule.

 

If done right this might be the most important airsoft invention in a long time.

Loud muzzle report, strong kick, no trigger delay, no more noise from spinning gears and electric motors, possibility of using LRB's instead of regular tightbore barrels for more range (if the CO2 pushes the BB itself and not just a piston, so that the gas can expand continuously that is).

If needed you should also be able to submerge it under water (SEAL scenarios?) like you can with an ESCORT based GBB like the YE MP5 or SP M16, aslong as you dry it and lube it after playing.

All of this with the wide range of available AEG models out there.

 

They really need to post more info about this thing.

I'm extremely excited about this. This could eradicate my problems with putting gas internals into an AKSU - if it does, I'm super happy.
