Metadyne Thumper (The complete saga from pre-order to right now) - Page 14

I thought with a splatty you hit the barrel forward, which cocked it, then when you pulled the spring the barrel slid back and hit a valve, covering the feed hole and shooting hte marker.

which is different to this, where you pull the barrel forward to put a ball in place, then drag it back, then you have to pull the trigger which just opens a valve directly... so now springs are involved..

edit: nevermind, emailing them gets a prompt reply.

Awesome. Some real news! Cool

couple things i wondered about, sorry if its been discussed (i think ive read everything)
do you really need to anodize the bare one?
and it seams you have to send the gun back after you do get it anodized for them to check it out (bare gun) to make sure they will still honor warrenty on it.
finally what is an estimate to have camo ano put on the bare one?
i got carried away last night and pushed the button anxious to see what ser.# are
order # was over 1000 that was at like 6:30 et

Will the grip have standard ASA mounting holes in case I want to run a bottom-line/put on some sort of stock?

And I'm assuming it will be a dust finish like most other metadyne stuff?

Very, very interested.....Hopefully they'll get some more info out before the 1st so I can decide whether or not to jump on the wagon with the first round. I guess even if i don't like it I can always sell it here one MCB for what I paid in the first round.....

I am also super curious about asa mounting holes.
Or will it take phantom grips.

Either way a yes and I will pre-order one. Just need that stock to use a gun.

evilkid94 · 12-13-2010, 04:17 PM

wait so if there is no bolt does that mean if you pull the trigger without pumping it it will fire? and so pulling the barrel forward only loads a ball and does nothing else?

please correct me if im wrong

desertT1 · 12-13-2010, 04:19 PM

The pump stroke still cocks the hammer, bolt or not, that still has to happen.

Besides, you fit a full mech in there and we'd be suspicious

I was under the impression there was no hammer. I thought it worked more like a spool valve with a dump chamber.
