Hello Everyone!
Firstly hope everyone’s New Year is off to a good start. I am way behind in posting. Mostly due to having the flu for the entire two weeks over the holiday season. I was very dissappointed that I wasn’t able to do any airgun related building during that time. Instead, I spent most of my time in bed and missed out on all family gatherings and good food. Looking back now, to have our health is a blessing. That blessing comes from God!
Concept 4 – Project
I did get four tank adaptors/valves made by another company. I will post a new page soon with pictures of the stainless, cnc machines parts. Parts still need some work. I had an idea to change the design of the valve and may try to implement a different valve on one rifle to see if the valve design will be feasible.
Hughes – Buckley Airgun
I received an email today from a Mr. Hughes in the UK. He has built a rifle using Buckley’s design. Looks really nice in my opinion. I will create a page for all his pictures soon. Below is a picture of the gun. Mr. Hughes is working on another 25 shot repeater and it will be done early spring. I am looking forward to viewing the rifle and hope he will allow it to be posted here for all to enjoy.
Sweden – Bullpup
Our friend in Sweden, Mr. Schaefer has been quietly building a bullpup rifle. He recently sent me some images and will post a new page when I can. He again sent some building pictures and will post for all to enjoy.
Schaefer’s bullpup looks inspired by Buckley’s design. The reservoir design allows for many variations of building this rifle. Airtank can be in the back or front. The hammer can open valve either direction pending design and placement of the air hole opening.
I hope to be able to accomplish a lot of updates in the next two weeks. I have been working on a design for another company in the evenings so my time is limited. Hoping to wrap up that project and get focused all my projects. Thanks for reading. Please feel free to comment or email. ~ Pedro
