how many shots does it hold?

I've always wondered this: If you took the plug from Forsaken Angel's magstrike mod and put that in the back instead of the OPRV, could you attach the original bladder also? So you'd have an insanely huge bladder, and hopefully the ability to shoot a bunch of clips, making priming almost nothing if you can just stand somewhere pumping the gun for a while, then go try to get people? Or would that weaken the force of the rubber somehow, so that the air drizzles out?

So stop with all the "new Recon" crap. This thing definately isn't a Recon, I'll wager my soul. Someone can quote me on that if they'd like

Well, i'm not going to pump it more than 40, but it should hold more then that because a Magstrike Bladder holds around 40, but I guess I weakened it. EDIT: No, it doesn't affect the ranges and I can pull off 2 clips with ~30 pumps...

You could probably attach that plug, but it's really hard to hold a bladder together without screws because even his plug failed and he said your best chance is to sand down the OPRV.

Wildfire casing, I used it so that the bladder would be sticking out.

It protects the bladder somewhat. Same as the white thing in the Magstrike, just older.

Very nice job. With a wildfire bladder and nothing behind it to kick in the OPR, when the bladder reaches the end of the casing you should be able to fire off 3 mags easily.

Although for some strange reason it seems all wildfires plastic casings around bladder are dirty.
PS. I like the powerclip mag :P

Just in case you don't know, I believe target sells exclusive black and yellow magstrikes for 20 bucks.
