My custom built .50 BMG

Blastyman · July 7th, 2005, 20:32

Here is my interpretation of the .50 BMG (Blasty Machine gun)

It was hand crafted in my garage over this winter using the most basic of tools.

Jigsaw,Hacksaw,skill saw with abrasive blade and my trusty drill.

Its full metal and fully functional.

Features
-Metal construction,very solid and hefty
-v6 gearbox for high relibility
-750 round BB capacity
-Working Charging handle to ready the gun to fire
-adjustable tripod
-420 FPS

Gun is approximately 98% complete. I have to finish up the sights and a better latch for the feed cover.

Had it out to our Vietnam game and it was quite the hit.

Anyhow here are some pics if anybody is interested.

Probably put a video up sometime if anybody wants.

It feeds pretty good. Sometimes I am lucky and can fire off all 750 with no misfires. :-)

I will get a video soon.

It's every bit as impressive as a minigun.

Mikeman_4_ever · July 7th, 2005, 23:02

would there be any way to do the same setup, except put multiple systems into the same unit. explaining that a little better, if you mounted 2-3 mechboxes/internal units into the main box, hook it up to a single firing mechnism/trigger you could probably fit the corresponding tightbores into the .50 barrel which would give an insane rof. thoughts?
