    Paintball shell-ejecting shotgun demo

    Finally finished this project and wanted to show how fun it is to use!

    It's based on a CAM870 MKII, to which I've made a number of modifications:

    - Bolt valve spring lightened and trigger hammer spring strengthened to dramatically increase velocity
    - Bolt drilled and tapped to accept 1/8 NPT air fitting
    - Receiver dremelled to allow travel of attached air fitting
    - Hogue stock cut and drilled to mount bottomline regulator ASA to allow easy control of input pressure and thus velocity adjustment
    - 12g co2 or HPA remote line configurations
    - Check valve installed to improve 12g efficiency

    (The cell phone doesn't capture audio very well, it is MUCH louder in person)



    (un-gassed firing video)


    Obviously I need to work more on my shotgun quad-loading skills, but that's part of the fun of the marker

    Sweet! Would love to see a live-fire video with some air.

      Taking it out for a Halloween paintball session this weekend, I'll see if I can get some footage then! I live in the city, so there's nowhere to gas it up at home without pissing off my neighbors :P

      Especially with a marker that looks like that. Understandable.

      Almost forgot, but grabbed some footage at the firing range while I was out at the field today! Added to first post.

          That's really cool! Nice job. How'd the first day of play go?

            Thanks, it was super fun! It was definitely a heavy handicap, it felt even more limiting than stock class play. But it was super satisfying getting eliminations with a shotgun, and learning to work in different types of shotgun reloads in weird positions was really fun too.

          This thing is really cool. Thanks for posting.

          Googling not coming up with many options for buying one. Where did you buy yours? What do the shells cost?

            You can find shells from here too. Do keep in mind that I made a LOT of modifications listed in the OP to be viable for paintball. Out of the box you are going to get 200-210 fps on first strike, even less on roundball, with no way to adjust velocity, and you are going to have recharge the bolt with a special co2 charger midgame every 10-15 shots or so.
