scooberoo Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Howie, why don't you delete/edit your post about your invention, since you already made a separate topic anyway. It's just too redundant and it's hijacking this topic. Thanks for your cooperation. Link to post Share on other sites
scooberoo Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 From the Madbull website: (4) Blow back single shot action. (Just like paintball gun's action.) (5) Semi auto (Upgradeable) (electronic trigger under development.) So to my understanding, you have to pull back the charging handle everytime you want to make a single shot. You can't make a 2nd shot without pulling the charging handle again. Also, if you upgrade to the electronic trigger, you will no longer need to pull the charging handle since it is electronic. You will only be able to fire in SEMI. Automatic is not even mentioned. SEMI-AUTO is not the same as FULL-AUTO. I'm welcome to corrections. Link to post Share on other sites
Howie Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 for some reason it wont let me remove my post??? the edit button is not there. Sorry i posted it here first then though oops make a new post i never intended to hijack these posts Link to post Share on other sites
deepsix Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 scooberoo, The part where they say "Semi auto (Upgradeable) (electronic trigger under development.)" means that it allready IS semi-auto, but will be upgradeable to full-auto. The part to do that is electronic, and is still under development. Thats what they mean. Link to post Share on other sites
Duke Togo Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Just got word from Simon of Madbull. End of Feb release. Link to post Share on other sites
mobius9 Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 is it just me, or did airsoft GI remove the preorder from their site? edit> as goes for making other gearbox conversions... a new mechbox could easily be made to house these internals. for instance, a machinist on my team is milling a new gearbox for the TM UZI... its not riddiculusly hard to do.

Holmes Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 Yes, but the whole point is the charging handle, and the pistol grip. It just won't work. Link to post Share on other sites
mobius9 Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 the entire pistol grip assembly is unnecessary. look at their design - its just a chamber to hold the co2 caplet which connects to the gas inlet tube. As goes the cocking, its simple enough to make an adaptation for that. edit> lets get more back on topic.... what the hell happened to the preorder! Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 The first round you need to chamber or else it will dry fire, besides that it is normal operation, the full auto trigger unit will convert it to full auto a V2 mechbox without motor will fit into LOTS of guns with the proper mounting. that is all Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 every AEG i've used dry-fires the first shot, if it hasnt been shooting already/has run empty, so its nothing new. Link to post Share on other sites
Silas5150 Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 I finally pre-ordered mine. Link to post Share on other sites
Outlaw of Torn Posted February 18, 2006 Report Share Posted February 18, 2006 That thing is so damn cool! I really want one now. *Adds to list of things I want/need* By the way, there is a lot of space behind the trigger mech in that pic. I'm guessing that is were the electronic chip thing is gonna go? Also, I don't see why this couldn't fit in another gun like an MP5. All they would need to do is cut another slit in the side of the gearbox, rotate the piston/thingy around so the sticking out bit is on the side and slightly adjust the grip canister holder. Dunno how they could connect it to an MP5 cocking handle though. Link to post Share on other sites
Silas5150 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 I just hope the electronic trigger upgrade won't be too fiddly to install. I have no problem working with AEGs, but gas guns give me problems. Link to post Share on other sites

Realistically it will fit anything but an uzi with a minimal amount of work. Link to post Share on other sites

Death By Cadbury Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 its so depressing. i really wish i had any reason to have faith in any release date for this thing.... Link to post Share on other sites
Silas5150 Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I understand that release dates change, but there was a pre-order. I've never, and it may just be that I haven't paid attention, encountered a time when a release date was significantly delayed after the item went to pre-order. Link to post Share on other sites

freq88 Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 I have a feeling the longer the wait the more anticlimatic the release will be. Link to post Share on other sites
