    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    Is there a "pre-built" two-stage system or something like that "pressurized breach" I was hoping to minimize the amount of components but I can adapt if need be.

    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    Is the "Few milliseconds" too long or too long? Im willing to leave that out if i must. MAIN PRIORITY is to get exactly the same amount of air thru each time the valve opens AND then auto-close, by nature it would have to auto-close on its own if the amount passing thru is limited. By my...

    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    Air pressure (Estimate) between 10 and 100 PSI - Adjustable via regulator, will determine power & velocity. I will use a choronograph to test and set the power according to our rules. Valve needs to stay open only few milliseconds. Most important is the self-reset/automated close and...

    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    Secondary tank is only needed with Co2 setups to stabilize the pressure. Aka "expansion chamber" With high pressure air it's simply not needed. I just need a valve that shuts itself after its been opened. Can't be that hard?

    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    I have fifteen years of experience upgrading and maintenance, even a small business doing tune-ups for airsoft guns. If there was a system that worked here, I would have used it. There isn't. Airsoft Pistols are eighter electric, motor driven piston. Gas-operated, using expanding gas like Co2...

    Mechanical timed close trigger-valve for an air(soft) gun - project

    Excuse me my poor English and total lack of knowledge of the matter. I may lack some correct terms and names. Whatta heck is airsoft? Google it. Longer answer: kind of a sister-sport to more known "paintball" While paintball is competitive sport, airsoft is more of "military simulation" and...
