Something else to consider is using the FASOR setup from the Dragun T-1. The bodies are Spyder clones, so everything would fit, and it would just look like a Spyder with a larger LPC.

I have a JAM bolt for my autococker and the spring is still a little strong. The nice thing about that one is that it seals off the air from reaching the ball. I can cycle it against my finger 5 times or so before it gets annoying/painful.

I have an old T1 that I'm turning into a pneuFASOR. I finished it last night and should be posting a thread soon. Maybe that could help you and others could help with any ideas for me.

Edit: What's a STBB? Not familiar with the acronym.

I knew that, but kept thinking about my STB reg for some reason.

I was going to suggest that at first, but I noticed he said he wanted to keep it a blowback.

I love teh spring loaded JAM bolt I have in my cocker, but it has one issue. When you fire, teh spring lets the bolt pop back (from the energy of expanding gas at the ball) and causes blowback up the feed.

Not too bad if you can time it (as you can on a cocker) to compensate or are using a force feed, but it is something to think about.

On a side note, I always thought that raising the weight of the hammer and lowering spring strength helped with pinching.
Also, Modding for Absolute maximum flow/efficiency will allow you to reduce spring tension... You'll have to recock on a pinch, which is still better than a break...

Depends on how often you get a pinch. I would assume it wouldn't happen all that often, but having to cock the marker every few minutes is going to bite ya sooner or later.
