I think everybody is asking about the 2 pumps because you might as well just replace the stock pump with the magstrike pump if its better. You can't use both at once, and replacing the at2k one would look cleaner.

I love the idea of combining a bladder system with a hard tank gun like that at2k, but the triple part priming process seems to defeat the 'semi-auto' nature of it.

Have you thought of putting the magstrike bladder release behind the at2k trigger? With some tinkering, It seems like you could use the majority of the trigger stroke to depress the magstrike valve (untill the at2k tank is full) and then use the last bit of the trigger stroke to open the at2k tank and fire.

Put that system into an auto-advancing turret (3k?) and you'd have true semi auto (except for the whole regulator issue).

Still, what you have is very nice, and I'm not in much of a place to give criticism since I have never modded any of the ATxK guns. Wish i could find some though.

Well I don't have an AT3k although I wish I did but the magstrike pump tube is too large to fit on the AT2k trigger loop thing. But thanks for the input.

That's kinda cool. You still haven't explained why you need both pumps.

Because the trigger slides on the stock pump but the stock pump doesn't give enough air.

I fixed the leaks and I'm getting around 12 shots at 70 feet. Im sorry for the very late rely. School gets in the way.

Why do you need two pumps? I like this whole concept and hope to make one for myself when I get all the parts, so thanks for posting something for me to look at when the time comes.

P.S. Does anybody else hate it when people say they're "too lazy" to do something?

Merzlin actually used to come to me for help.

It has two pumps because the at2k pump doesnt have enough air output.

Your welcome.

Been done a few times before, I didn't get much for ranges and the added pumping combined with loss of range wasn't worth it to me,

Well to tell you the truth I didn't know it was done in this way, I've seen other ways though.
