Tippmann X7c ALIENS Pulse Rifle BUILD THREAD (pic heavy and VIDS)

magazine version 1 completed...mag version 2 is smaller

after redoing some parts (triangular metal parts, the magazine, magazine magwell) primed, painted with some weathering and then heavily clear coated...and a final fit..time for things to go back together :)

viola...a 90% done X7c pulse rifle



cyclone ready and RT ready..still have to work in the airline

ammo counter mounted

testing magazine switch



magazine switch ..a trigger switch i took off and old piranha paintball gun :)

all that left is to work in the air line and reinstall internals and trigger switch for the ammo counter

trigger for the ammo counter from an old 98c board..this is version 1 which later failed

Polished the internals

Trigger for ammo counter VERSION 2...this version was later refined

added metal "plastic" to hold the trigger in place

regular air thru at the top...my modded one at the bottom

brazed the copper tubing to a brass fitting for the q/d

Completed the incomplete X7 air thru kit with my own fittings..this was later revised in version 2 with the q/d brazed on to the end of the copper tube

Viola...custom made air thru kit for the Pulse Rifle :)

BT Ripclip added with an A5 flasc adapter modded to fit the X7c

a few finishing touches to go but she's finally done..had a problem with the X7 "farting"..thought it might have been the air system but it turned out to be the end cap on the butt stock..it was too deep for the rear spring meaning not enough tension on the spring..add a shim and now its good to go :)

Heres a video of the counter counting down as well as the test firing of the "shotgun"

Hope y'all have enjoyed the build pics..I started in late may i think and its been fun and a pain at the same time LOL..feel free to ask any questions :)

i used minimal air for the vid :)
