I had enough room for a container 24x16 mm x 60 mm long which is a small area to fit enough pellets to make it worth while, then thinking back on a design for a multi barrel pellet dispenser I did a few years ago, I decided to scale it down to fit the available area if possible. The design I came up with holds 43 pellets in four tubes which rotate as each one empties, the whole unit fits inside a case which looks like a magazine and is held in by a clip, this can be released to refill the unit. Plus I had to make a larger silencer to accommodate the extra power after bumping it up to 11 fpe.

Is that a spring loaded index plunger? ball bearing? I was fighting for room to fit an indexer as there is only 3mm space, so I used the spring end to index into a V slot in the bottom ring, this method seems to work well and the main thing is that it is accurate, so no jammed pellets. Also I have fitted a shroud around the bottom to protect the dispenser nozzle, plus I think it looks nicer. _________________   Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2012 11:32 am Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA Very nice, Al. Imagine that - a magazine that actually holds ammunition. The dummy magazine on my B3 only dispenses M&M's. As always, beautifully conceived and executed. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2012 11:53 am Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Slavia wrote: Very nice, Al.

I think you've got it cracked slavia, M&Ms would be more satisfiring than some of my shooting.

Equally important if you've been on the range for some long hours and the blood sugar starts to drop _________________ Sean   Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:02 pm Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA The problem comes when you do like me and shoot the M&M's on full auto. Doesn't take long to empty a magazine. We should take bets on how long it takes somebody to commercially copy Al's idea. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!

With all the possible places on an airgun, I wonder why the manufacturers can't put a built-in pellet dispenser on them. I guess it's up to us to make our own.   Posted: Sat Apr 21, 2012 4:49 pm radar Silver Status Member Joined: 13 Nov 2011 Posts: 1138 Location: Des Moines, Iowa, USA Officially the most overall high-tech-modded air rifle I ever saw. You should send it on tour back in China to just to watch the crowds gather round at the factory. _________________ It's never too late to have a happy childhood.   Posted: Sat Apr 21, 2012 9:25 pm robert w Senior Member Joined: 12 Feb 2012 Posts: 574 Location: usa nice work you did there alstone looks like something they should have made at the factory _________________ ,crosman 400,gamo big cat in .22, diana 5g,diana 54 air king, diana 34 in .22 diana 34 in .177, wilrauch hw-55,and a romainian pioner training rifle , and a huge collection of powder burners 35 last count . 1 would think i have a gun store Dummy Pellet Dispensing Magazine.     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Accessories You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 2   Goto page 1, 2  Next All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
