Should add the valve knocker to the list of parts to have CNC'd?

7075 T6 is probably a better alloy to use than 303SS. Its cheaper to machine and has a better strength-to-weight ratio while at the same time almost having the same tensile strength.

Alright. Do you think it will stand up to the abuse of a steel barrel?

Edit: 7075 does sound like the better option now. Looks like it has a better tensile strength to weight ratio. Thank you for the input.

As much as I would love to sling plastic with some fellow Arizonians, my company does not allow airsoft guns and my student status prevents me from leaving post. If I get the chance to come out before I leave here I will surely jump at it.

Interesting work to be sure, but IMO, the slide is the much larger issue.

The outer slide? Creation has an aluminum inner slide that should alleviate forces from the recoil. If it turns out otherwise, then that will be something to look into after the hop up is produced.

I'm working on a project to have CNC hop ups made for TM 5-7s to alleviate the issues created by running propane and green gas. Head over to ASF to learn more:

If anyone is interested, please let me know. If anyone has access to a CNC machine that can mill 303 stainless pm me.
