Title: Marauder re barrel .20
Post by: WHITEFANG on May 25, 2014, 03:04:21 PM

 ???Well the re barrel in me has me thinking?
Anyone re barreled a Marauder to .20?
As you know I am a re barreler of springers.
Thinking of a new project gun. A FANG MARAUDER .20. This will be the base 2014 .25 gun. A bolt, mags and more conversions. Cheaper but not better than the HW 1000.
IDEALS WELCOME!

o.c.

use a .22 instead of the .25
the bolt probe should be a close fit
you may be able to make a cog for the magazine to feed .20
major problem will be cutting a grove on the inside of the barrel for an o-ring.

use .22 magazines...and a turned down .22 bolt. The .177/.22 breech is the same. I have a full length, 0,470 LW 20 cal barrel in mine, and it is quite fine.
