Slight necro post, but related. An alternative i have liked for myself is a blue force gear ten-speed pouches. Instead of the hard plastic it uses an elastic band. I prefer them because they have a lower profile when the magazine is removed, and if price is an issue, around 10 dollars cheaper for a double than a single Fast Mag pouch. They are quite difficult to get in and out when they were first used, and I considered replacing them, but after about a month they broke in and are quite easy to use.

Now i'm looking to replace the receiver of my G4 Dune Knight. Now there's a half a dozen different tans (sand, tan, Dark Earth etc). I bought tan magazines from MAG and they were closer to an OD, so before I go buying parts I want to get them to at least be a very close match. It does match the color of the Dark Earth Magpul magazines. Anyone know what this would equate to? Or is there any way to find out? (i've learned not to trust pictures online)

Some of you recall the combustion style launcher I finished drawing up a few weeks ago. Only to realize I would not be able to use it, and make the BATF unhappy. So as a result I came up with this.

Its a completely Inline compression system using a 24oz CO2 bottle. Its going to generally do the same thing that you would expect, whatever is loaded inside the shell will leave the barrell going about 450 fps depending on what I want to pressurize the chamber to. The outer shell will be dressed up to look as similar to an AT4 as possible.

Any questions or suggestions are welcome. I will be taking and posting pictures of its construction as it goes along, which will probably begin next week.

Oh and I stumbled across someone who was trying to make a nerf rocket that would spray bb's on impact, but never got out of the basic planning stage. I am perfectly aware I would probably not be allowed to use this, but its worth building at least one. http://i1117.photobucket.com/albums/k600/nemisissy/AT4%20Project/prototyperocket1.jpg

This seems like the best place to post this (technically its gas powered). I bet most of you have seen this video on youtube Paintball Rocket Launcher

The air compression parts are expensive (a palmers reg goes for 70 dollars) so i'm going to try for something similar in design, which i took off this website http://www.pukindogspaintball.com/cannons/BECC.htm. The difference is i'm going to build it combustion style, in self contained shells with butane at one end with the ignition contacts, and my projectile at the other. This modification I got off of Jackssmirkingrevenge on spudfiles, and should give me about 400 fps.

Maybe we forgot what the original poster was asking, G&G sportlines aren't too shoddy for price, look also at their combat machines, i've got a G4, which was a combat machine that GI put some external goodies on, out of the box 435

Dboys generally have decent bodies and from what i've seen have gotten better over the years, but their internals are garbage.

perfect, just what i'm looking for, thanks
