gothic steampunk P-A lever action idea

CamoDeafie · 06-10-2008, 11:50 PM

ive an idea.... similar to the KL, but instead of the wood, you have a skeleton of aluminum, with sheet aluminum riveted to the frame, using the gothic screw-on studs on some parts of it, itd be a Pneumatic Assisted in the most steam punk way possible, using gauges, hardlines, and all going to a HPA tank with a junction box, as for the lever, it;d be attached to a cog of some sort which would open a ram for the PA to kick in, and open a 3 way or some such, thereby making it pump much faster, as for the shoulder stock, a folding wire stock with bits of wood attached to it, to keep the brass and wood in there..this;'d be on either a sheridan base or a nelson base, whichever is up to the designer/maker.. of course, i dont have the funds to do this..but it is a challenge

lol. the HPA tank should have a cover that looks like a boilerplate.,...well the idea here is boilerplate construction with industrial age look to the hardlines and gauges, the hardline would have little retainers attached to the body, approx spaced at 1 inch, or instead of boilerplate on the forearm, you could have slats of dark wood on it?

The autococker is the most naturally steampunk device I've ever seen...

Even more so when its out of time and vents gusts of co2 from the ram ports when cycling.

I wanted to make a steampunk traccer, but instead, tap the breech area for extra gas, feed that Via hardline to an air pilot valve, that operates a QEV equipped ram off a brass 'rock' regulator (Hardlined, of course) that cycles the gun.

Steam punk needs multiple 12gram changers screwing in to power the gun.

A bank of brass eagle 12 gram changers, maybe? You can rig them for check valves easily.
