    Mechanical Shocker SFT

    Has anyone out there successfully built a mechanical Shocker SFT? This is something I have thought of before but am not really sure it has ever been done.

    I don't think I've seen one done but I don't think it'll be too difficult either.

    If I were to do it, I would use a sprung HE bolt and use a SMAV3 to route air to the front of the bolt. You'd have to calculate what spring dimensions are needed though. I doubt the typical Rhino spring would be optimal.

            It seems the info out there is scarce and the dwell problem seems like it would pose an issue.Not sure if there is enough room in the frame to make everything necessary fit.

              What is the issue with dwell? Underdwelling/short-stroking seems about as likely as short-stroking GoG Enmeys. Overdwelling shouldn't be an issue as long as you use an HE-style bolt with a dump chamber shutoff.

                If you do some how get it to work it's probably going to be an air hog even with an HE bolt and guide
