phantom double sided feed (3D printed) - Interest thread

[XEMON]

Ok, broke one on "destructive strength test" today. Only got a small part of the process in video (the end where it break) ill post it if i can figure out how ...
I knew the weakest point is where the mounting bolt is, so this is where i shot it.
All the shots were at point blank directly into the center of the feed block, from about 4-6" away.
It took 23 direct shot before it gave ... this is a lot more than i expected.

Here is my "setup":


"Action shot":


And the break:

Is there enough meat at that point to print as two separate pieces and connect with pins and adhesive for added strength?

You should shove the next one in the freezer first for round 2…for science!

My first one broke taking a close range hit playing in the cold.


23 shots is impressive though!

I might try it if I get a wired print I can't use ... Didn't though about the temperature ...maybe I should have added it? I'm in California, so it s about 95 today

i have question will this not make this true stock class now since have extra stick feed on gun.

We should be able to keep it within SC 2.0 rules.

When I ran my original APOC feed (not spring Fed) with a 15 round tube, it held 23 rounds between front and rear combined. I ran an 8” Deadly winds barrel and. 15 round CCI front. So it was just outside he StockClass 2.0 rules….

however, with my current setup, I’m running a freak back with Doc’s tip. I’ll need to shorten my front tube a bit to make it work. I won’t run stick feed rear, I’ll try to stick with something fixed to keep me compliant

I’m hoping that puts me to the 20 round mark to keep it within SC 2.0. If I have to, I’ll put a spacer in.

And should have the last of the hardware tomorrow.
