Has anyone ever made a 3d printed PGP feedgate?

[rathbaster]

I have some vague memory from several years ago of someone suggesting it
But can't find anything on the idea or execution of the idea

I remember seeing something like that on a PGP2K

[XEMON]

someone made one for teh 2K, i have one im not using if you want it.
There is also feed plugs out there ...

What are you looking for exactly?

Im assuming he wants q speed feed esque feed gate from how I read this. Like the sock holders and a flared part to capture said sock holder?

[XEMON]

I have a project of making one utilizing my phantom gate as a base ... but its gonna be a while before i get to it ...

If you’re looking for a PGP2 feed plug, I created an extended knurled plug that’s held securely by dual o-rings.

It works quite well btw

[rathbaster]

Well I already have a nice feed plug on the PGP I purchased



What I was thinking of is something like Palmer's Sheridan feedgate



I've had such a feedgate on several different PGPs in the past

But I can't find it on their website
And figured someone would have printed something simpler and less metallic by now
The old feedgates would often scratch up the finish installing them and I expect printed plastic would be easier on the surfaces

Ooh, where would one get that style feed plug?

[XEMON]

Those are made by PPS, theyre good, but do scratch the finish and can cause jam because they dont protrude up to teh transfer port.

I used to have one. I personally didnt like it. Reloads are quicker, but I found paint overshot the feed hole as a result of the ball stop being so far back. I MUCH prefer the parabolic style feed plug like the above picture. Ill take a slower reload for a faster pump stroke any day.

Made this a few years ago, 2 step feeder. Just need to figure out how to insert a video.

I'm working on one that is like the one on my spydarm. It'll fit closer to the aesthetic of a peeg and lock in with the slot for the back cap. Maybe I can finish it up this weekend.

If anyone can make one its the ChoSanJuan! Lol
