double trigger Gmek frame

[rawbutter]

I had some free time today and finally got to do a cool project I've been saving since Christmas. It's a double-trigger Gmek frame! Basically just the electronic frame with all the electro parts stripped out and replaced with a big pivoting steel bracket. And some roller bearings. And a custom delrin pin. And a brass trigger rod.

It shoots great, of course. The only problem is that it's a little too easy to not fully release the trigger after a shot, so the 3-way doesn't reset and then the next trigger pull does nothing. So that will take some getting used to. But it was a fun project.

Now I just have to figure out how to do a safety. Or I'll just use the ASA. I'll probably use the ASA.

I also have thoughts about ditching the long rotating bracket and replacing it with hydraulics, but that will have to wait a few more months.

Very cool, nice work man!

Do the gmek frames bolt up to a emek?

I don't think so. But even if they did, Emeks route the air lines through the frames, not through the foregrip. So it wouldn't work for that.

They do not

Does the noid have a manual pilot button, or are you using an additional valve to actuate firing cycle? This is pretty sweet either way. It reminds me of the legacy mod.

I have A 160r, and I know I can't get a mech frame, but I have a legacy mod. Its essentially a replacement noid with a laser cut acrylic wing to hit the trigger.

You can rip some insane speeds on a mech with it. If I recall it was quickly banned from the mech tourneys when they first came out, and they quit getting made.

I can take some pics for you if you wanna try to use some of his ideas, or even source a manual noid yourself.

I bought an extra Gmek 3-way from PE to do this mod. That way I still have the original to keep with the slider frame.
