Raptor pump conversion

[markdem]

I feel like im going to get about half way through this build and give up, but here i go anyways. Trying to keep it as basic as possible and keep it under 20 hours

Started making a loooong bolt from delrin.

Time spent: 3 hours

[KMDPB]

This is why I come here

[markdem]

Hammer

2 hours

[Morgenstern]

Please leave the massive doorknob stump on the bolt so you can cycle it by using it like a bolt action as well.

[markdem]

Im going the lazy route. A cocking knob just adds another step in the process. Sorry

[markdem]

Pump slide / valve retainer

1 hour

[markdem]

Pump handle. First time doing off-center turning. It was tricky

3.5 hours

[dartamon]

This is great, how is the hammer actuated?

[Jonnydread]

Vegemite I imagine

[markdem]

Posted a picture further down. The bolt has a vegemite lug sticking out that catches the hammer

If you decide to make Raptor pump kits for sale, I might have to consider hunting for a used Raptor , they're so cheap and pretty available. I think BE sold many of the green ones!

[Jonnydread]

Mark doesn’t sell things, he just makes them.

[markdem]

Jonny is right. Im happy just tinkering in my garage. Although this pump conversion was stupid easy and someone could easily make a kit

[markdem]

Aaaaaaand done

14 hours

[wthomas333]

Man I wish I had the tools to do that. I would love to turn a couple of my Raptors into pumps.

[Jonnydread]

Awesome

[AnarchicArctic]

Nice work!

[capitalpaintball]

Now we need to have a Spump DAY. or Rump...Rapump...Pumptor... not sure what sounds better.

[Jonnydread]

R U M P

is the clearly superior term

[MrKittyCatMeowFace]

Who is gonna be the first to pump a Raptor Xtreme or a LTD 2000? .

[$L!mBo]

[Chaos]

Knowing him ,that's probably next

[Number six]

This is the first time I've ever raised an eyebrow for a Raptor. Well done!
