AutoMag Fill Rate

[rhoover@cap.gwu.edu (Robert Hoover)]

Welp all you know it all are missing the big picture when it comes
to the flow rate within the automag. THE BIGEST flow restriction 
in the whole gun in the reg seat. You have a .110 hole ( I am
taking a number off the top of my head ) the is open for 1/10 sec
with a 2 to 3 mm opening. ( these are ROUGH numbers these are for
generalization ) You have a larger hole from the regulator to the 
on/off BUT you can only flow so much air past the reg seat.

You hace have 40 damn holes and a on/off top that looks like
swiss chesse and a larger air chamber but it not going to do
diddly because you can only flow X amount of air past the reg seat.

Argh what a bunch of hard headed people.....


Hey Dave Rothowe(sp) - If you dont like your Magic box do what I
have been doing to them. I took a hack saw and cut the box down

the middle and removed the fitting half and then the air chamber
tube. For real fun you can DOUBLE the SP Tube buy putting the 
fitting half into the AM air Chamber and then screwing in the 
orginal SP AC tube and you now have the mother of all gas hogs

:)

I have several people running around with gages in the hole
where the Magic Box was its kinda neat to get a good 300-500psi
gage and see what barrel need more pressure to move the ball
at various FPS...
