In this egg I will be telling those of you who wish to know how to make a good loading system for a paintball gun or any other kind of weapon with round ammo. I don’t really know how to describe it but I suppose it is a clip/auto/breach loader. In other word you probably all know what it is but I don’t.
Materials:
T-connector to fit onto barrel
Barrel
PVC the size of t-connector
Spring (weak) to fit in large piece of PVC
Bottle top and thread
Hot glue gun
Rounded file
Method:
1. First thing to do is use some sand paper rapped around a sick to sand out the T-connector so that the barrel can go right through and turn inside.
2.use the rounded file to make a hole in the barrel the size of the end of the t-connector or so the ammo can easily fit down it.
3. Cut the large piece of PVC the same length as the spring and attach the bottle top and thread to one end.
4. Using the hot glue gun attach the spring to the inside of the bottle top so that when it is screwed on it sticks down the tube almost to the end.
5. Attach the piece made in the previous two steps to the top of the t-connector using the hot glue gun. Push the t-connector onto the barrel and over the hoe so that if the bottle top is removed when you look down you and seen down the hole.
6. Cut two rings of PVC that will fit snugly over the barrel and glue them on either side of the t-connector and hot glue gun them in place. This should mean (if done right) that the t-connector can move around the barrel but not from side to side.
7. Remove the bottle cap and put down ammunition then replace cap. This means that each time something is fired a new one will be pushed into place by the spring. when one has been pushed into the barrel spin the t-connector 180 degrees so that the hole is blocked up. This means the air or what ever the weapon is powered by cannot escape any other way than through the barrel. To load again simply spin t-connector another 180 degrees back and when the weapon is loaded again simple rotate again.

if so then thats a pritty good idea. i thought it was just an easy hopper like on my paintball gun egg. but it gets 5* caus its diferent
Dec 20, 2006 1:13 pm - You realize the spring is completely pointless. The only instance in which a spring would be necessary would be if you were making this loader upside down. In this loader, gravity is the spring... Basically, if you took out the spring, this would still function. Therefore, it really just is a tube on top of the gun.
Dec 20, 2006 2:41 pm - well i have found that without the spring it works, but not aswell.
also i have mine at the side of my gun so i have have a place to put my site.

He said to make it so "(if done right)the t-connector can move around the barrel". That means the magazine would naturally fall down and be upside down (making it look a lot better) causing a spring to be necessary.
Dec 21, 2006 12:29 am - i love it. but do you have any idea how unpractical that is. the spring would have to be strong to be that long and when it pushes down on the ammo it will not let it get the full power it can get becuase it intefers with the forward momentum with its downward force. but good idea. 5*
Dec 21, 2006 1:36 am - dude did you not read the part about the t connector/magazine being able to rotate so it closes off any other ammo being able to get in the barrel.
5* aswell but how would you go about firing it?
