can make springs Paul got the jigs for doing so ,just being lazy mate,made the mag to suit marauder mag springs thinking would be able to buy some from crosman,but turns out Ron young told me they dont supply these springs as spare parts any longer,have to buy complete mags just to get the springs outa them,only $30 buck each so will buy some mags when next lot get here next month,mags cost me nothing but time to make anyway so $30 bucks for spring still cheap mag mate,mags i made are not exact copy of the marauder mags,just made on bassic design concept to suit the rifle am building,the beauty of the marauder mags is their simplicity,they need no other mechanical parts in the gun to function like most other types mags do,so simpifys the gun,less working parts equals less to go wrong and easier to make etc,the mags have made have been modifyed to shift the pellet feed on pellet position upwards by one pellet position,this means can set mags lower down into the receiver without so much of mag protruding out the top of breech etc,meaning can mount scope lower and wont obstruct open sights,being machined out of allininum mags look lot nicer than marauder mags mate,all part the fun building your own guns,you know me i never do things the easy way,the new rifle is a lever action,with a full metal receiver and mechanically quiet different to the usual and has a completly different type of internal hammer to other pcp rifles,lot machine work to go yet just to make the receiver from solid block alli mate,going to be another one those long running projects for sure. cheers mike

You really need to figure out how to post photos. We are all missing out on enjoying your skills. That sounds great though, and would love to see the mags. ------------- |

Was thinking about those springs, and what about those key rings with retractable cords? A donor part maybe? ------------- |
