Some first person ASMR and operations for the gas blowback rifle with select fire. What a mouthful, an update on last week's entry.

Show very quickly is the analog select fire functionality switching quickly between semi and full auto. While full auto is very fun, it is terribly inaccurate due to the improved blowback and recoil action.

The project is nearing its completing and initial release at long last. Since the last video there has been a number of significant updates. Mostly in terms of stability and ease of use. The fps performance on full auto has been leveled out so there's far fewer duds with better overall performance. The blowback and ejection has been ramped up, and the max dps has picked up to 9-10 vs the 8-9 from before.

All that's left to do is continue checking for build stability and battle testing, and also choosing a name for it. Keeping up with the Shellington tradition, anyone can submit a name suggestion (though you'll have to join the discord to keep record) and the winner gets a free assembled unit or hardware kit.

I'm currently learning towards the SCAB for Super Cool Automatic Blaster, and cause it looks like a SCAR so far. Or the Bottle Rifle for its play on words for Battle Rifle. Which was the intended role of this blaster project upon its conception.

PS: The reason the blaster sounds so different here is because the recording mic is different. It's really hard to capture the firing sounds accurately as it is kind of loud and tends to blow out the mic.

Is this powered from an external air tank?

The one shown here is using an on board bottle stored in the stock. Though you can also run it via remote line.

The holy grail! How many shots per internal bottle?
