Azodin Abominations

[AtomJaay]

These started off as backups for stock class events with the extra one to entice a friend to get back into the sport.

Then, I wanted to make some accessories to trick them out for single-ball "ball fondlers" or "Civil War" style games as well as the gunslinger high noon duels. The top cocking handle makes it easy to drop a ball in while you're cocking back. Cock, drop and chamber in one smooth motion.

Now, I'm in the midst of modeling an integrated feed for the top that satisfies stock-class but adds to the overall shape nicely (i may sacrifice fast reload for cool lines, maybe a flip up top to the whole rail/stick feed). I can cock these one-handed using the opposite wrist, so, the silly teenage dream of rocking double pistols is bubbling up inside me again. Limited paint/air but possible maximum fun.

I chopped this autococker barrel file from the MCB .stl list down to about 6 inches. The one on the right is Optimus Tiki Prime and the one on the left is the Ban Hammer because I imagine a comic book about a rogue ref who's had too much and keeps getting in trouble for wearing this on his hip out on the field and shooting wipers he catches.

I feel like you need a Lego person outfit to match these

[AtomJaay]

a sponsorship you say..... lol

ok stupid question from a 3d printing noob, how do you get multi color prints ?

[AtomJaay]

Just by pausing the print and changing the filament. Mine is an old makerbot Rep1, so it's rather manual and eye-ball timing.

[Knuckle Dragger]

You going make them a single trigger?

[AtomJaay]

I was thinking about it. Either a printed piece that kinda forms a single trigger or chop the double and print a big trigger shoe. Dunno yet, I may leave that decision until after at least 1 game with them to see if this is going anywhere lol.

I missed a Transformer's scenario game so now I hope for a Jurassic Park scenario game. Dino tranq-ball pistol vibes.

Got to field test this dual pump pistol idea at Roach's OSG event. Fun enough to keep plugging away at add-ons like a chunky trigger shoe that ends up making a single trigger. Gotta fix my latching part of the rail-feed cover, the bits I designed were too fragile to make it through the printing/cleanup process so I ended up using a zip-tie around each for the games. Having ~24 balls for a game and no reasonable way to quickly reload was a fun challenge though.

I have a KP3 missing a cocking rod, that wrist cocking could be an option

[AtomJaay]

There is a way to incorporate a return spring between that wrist cocker and the feed neck of the marker. I was thinking about doing that but as-is the spring inside the proper pump handle is doing the return. If anybody wants the WIP .stl files DM me, some hole drilling in post-process is needed.

It was cool seeing these things in action Sunday.

[ChoSanJuan]

How's the knuckle action when using the pump handle?

[AtomJaay]

The default pump handles aren't really meant to be used in this setup. Holding one in each hand, you're relying on that Opposite Wrist Cocking with the printed paddle on top. The printed bits on the proper pump handle are just adding color and making the front end look more solid and blaster-like imo.

[Tarak]

Hilariously cool looking for a bit of fun, even if you've basically made a home made 3D printed version of the Warsensor and Akarion pistols of days gone by. Except pump, so cooler. And yeah, having tried running a pair for fun, reloading is always kind of a "Find a fox-hole" moment Love the color and inventiveness here. Keep posting man!
