    Shoe Box Shocker Mechanical conversion is it possible??

    Hey, I am new to here so please forgive me if I make a mistake against the rules. I was wondering if it might be possible to convert a shoe box shocker from electric to mechanical. If it is possible is there a guide or way, I can do it? I have a shoe box shocker that I would want to either turn mechanical or at least try too.

    Might be a bit tricky as these have 2 solenoids

      Possible? I don't see why not
      Easy? Hell no
      I'm true MCB fashion? Hell yes

      Since the whole dump chamber is emptied each shot there's not really any dwell considerations to worry about

        At what pressure are those solenoid running at?

          It's smart parts. 200

          "Low pressure is more accurate" remember?

            Look like it could be turned into a pump gun (pneumatic assist).
            probably the following componecomponentbe used (but it will get expensive and heavy quickly)

            Clippard SMAV3 for the firing
            and a 4 way valve to reload (pump activating a SMAV 3 piloting a MPA3 on a MAV4)

            Jordan used the same component to replace a 4 way solenoid in my Macdev clone

              Soooo

              Way back before mcb I kinda did that.

              I split the operations using bushmaster boards and used a front mounted toggle switch to pump the thing

            This feels like a real Paging: Jordan kind a moment.

            A 2 stage trigger would be the only way.
            A cocker slider type trigger bolted to a piece of flat bar to replace the tray.
            Dual cocker 3 ways, one to operate the bolt, the other the valve.
            Time it to close bolt, then open valve as trigger guess through the stroke.
