    My late father was a machinist he worked for the NCB repairing and machining bits to repair pit props etc. Watching you machine this brings back memories of me Watching my dad in the machine shop in duckmanton.

      Glad to hear it, I grew up "helping" my dad take apart and fix things, and as time went on I gravitated towards the machine tools, so nowadays he still does the taking apart and mending then I make the new parts he cant fix. But I am glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching.

    On the other end of the quality spectrum, I made one out of a car oil filter and a bolt with 1/2 unf fitting threads once! It does work too!

    • @sub12airgunners
      @sub12airgunners  3 года назад +1

      Lol, the old oil filter trick, surprisingly effective though, really any pressure vessel with a restriction at one end and a thread on the other will work, you could probably make a Pringles can work for sub 12 use with enough duct tape.
      Thanks for watching.

      @@sub12airgunners Yeah, I'm going to try something similar to that for a paintball marker. I like shooting it in the garden but those things are loud. On another note I've had a little success with double regulators on a Leshiy 2. I managed to get another reg and plenum from Edgun Spain (I also notice Huma are selling Leshiy 2 regs too). Its a cobble together scree two plenums and regs together affair but it seems to work, but yet to test it thoroughly. On the positive side, so far it hasn't made performance worse.

      @@R2D888 Fantastic, I really want to start messing around but I need a baseline indicator on the performance of the rifle before I start messing around, ranges open up soon so fingers crossed the tinkering can begin soon. Just had a look the the Huma site might get a second reg ordered, but I quite fancy having a go at making one, good tips though, I bet you have to have orangutan arms to handle the L2 with 2 plenums. 👍 Thanks for watching.

    • @R2D888
      @R2D888 3 года назад

      @@sub12airgunners Yeah, I've tried to make it as short as possible so changed to a compact butt extension into a standard plenum(130cc) with reg at 120bar into a compact plenum (110cc)with reg at 70bar. I believe the butt extension can made a lot shorter if you make your own, I'll also try two compact plenums at some point too. Bench rest shooting as it is seems more than acceptable in length though and at 5ft 7 I'm on the smaller side already. Would definitely look forward to see your interpretation of a double reg system on it though! I'm also experimenting with a screw and one valve system as I experienced some indexing issues (not related to the dual regs) after I changed jets. I've had to use the largest diameter jet of 1.3 I got from Edgun West and a screw. So far it hasn't had any more indexing problems but I think I could do with an even larger diameter jet. Keep up the excellent work on this channel! 👍

      You can't just fit a longer liner to a standard 500mm barrel you need the longer steel tube as well, I think there is someone making extensions now though, you could look on Airbuks channel he has a vid about the barrel extensions. Thanks for watching.

    Sound moderators are sound absorbers. Sound is energy. If the energy is fully absorbed..There is no sound.. Shrouds are great. But why ? They have little volume.. They absorb close to nothing..But they produce eccos/anti sound.
