in the homemade section of the site there is a home made breech. what if you put a second hole right under the tophole. Then you hot glue 1/2" PVC of equal sizes that will fit in the hole and glue them in the back so when you slide the barrel forward, a pipe falls through and then it gets loaded in the breech, then fire and repeat. Oh yeah the darts are in the pipes. when the clip is empty it falls out. i think 12 round clips are good because it would only be a little over 6".

Only a few problems with that, 1/2" PVC is 1/2" inner diameter, I can't exactly remember what the outer diameter is, but a 12 round clip would look pretty tall coming off that breech.

The other thing is that Zero Talent is possibly making that right now, or close to it. Here's the thread, scroll about 1/3 of the way down the page for the animation of the breech. I'm not sure if that link will work or not, it's the topic Base Defense Cannons, and You under Nerf Wars. I'm not really sure who has the credit for that design, at least as far as first thinking of using it for nerf goes, but it really doesn't matter. Some people already have working versions of that for bolt action loser rifles, but Zero's is going to be semi-auto.

Good stuff though, for thinking of the shell system and everything yourself.

I`ve got that idea working right now in a rifle I`ve built.

http://www.filebox.v...erf/sniper2.htm

The shells are 1/2" PVC with 1/2" couplers on them to allow the bolt to catch the shell. The shells are about 1"DIA around the coupler and I can get about 6 (+1 in the chamber) in the magazine that is about 6" tall
