Airsoft Minigun


I doubt that I will ever be able to create such a monster, but if I were to attempt it, this is my interpretation of how it would work:
The The Heart of the gun would be a chopped paintball gun. The gun would be moddified with a 6mm barrel and such, but would still contain the same amount of release, meaning I would be using heavy bbs. The CO2 tank would be stock paintball. The problem here is cooldown, firing that many rounds so fast. I may have to find an alternate power source. . .Perhaps I will talk to the local company that provides gases to businesses.

Another problem is the timing. the timing here puts a car to shame. It has to be EXACT!!!! any variation would cause a bb either missing a barrel altogether, or worse, hitting the side of it. Great care would have to be taken to find gears that are an exact match to the barrels, and then manually time them, much like you would a car, marking the exact spots where they match. anyways, a motor like this would be pumping out 1700rpm! so, whatever rate of fire your comfortable with, change the motor accordingly.

Some more illustrations of the airsoft Bazooka springer.

Pictures of the starting diagrams:
Anyways, the gun is operated in the following manner. There is a spring in the front of the magazine. This spring pushes the cartridges to the back of the mag. A handle, that you push (which is slighly off center of the top of the gun, where the spring in this outdated illustration is) allows the cartridge to be pushed into the barrel, while pushing the spent cartridge out of the gun. The charging handle, which is attached to an inner barrel, pushes the Piston (a toilet plunger head) back, and then turns, to lock. To fire, you release the charging handle, firing the bbs. The release of the handle also releases the lock holding the cartridge shut, letting it be open for only a split second before the gun is fired.
