Hi,
here i´m going to build me a max. compact boxmag, finaly for fit on my TMC but you have all Options, you just Need to build your box to fit on your Magwell. ;)

I took the gearbox housing etc., board etc. from my HaloToo and fit the Slim cyclonefeed on top. So you have a very Slim and real looking size Setup !!!

Here on pic one i set it like i go build the box for my TMC, it will be not much more than the cyclonehousing Diameter in wide(left and right side), high will be the line top of the grip max. so i Count with ca. 100rounds !?!?!? We gonna see after i build the box !!! :rolleyes:

Here a test vid. of:

Here i build the new final connector axle, i found the (to long) rod in my cocker parts. Now i got 2 Solutions of making it set right: 1st build a spacer out of a pipe and use a nut or 2nd cut the rod and glue it in. I also build out of an alu pipe a connector for the cyclonefeed arms. The engine is now well fixed by ...
so the internals are done and just build the box is left !!! ;)

It´s getting smaller a bit, but also i get more Volume by cut the cyclone housing and feedneck. :rolleyes:

So i´ve got the final plan:
The box will be out of three main parts. 1st one the top Piece includes door, mag adaptor and strong Frame for connect to Piece 2. the lower box which is just an empty box. Piece 3 will be the engine, cyclone etc. unit which you just put into the lower box.

As soon i got the sheet metal i will go on !!!

I build a ball channel which sit´s very Close to front to have a max. ball flow not done i´m thinking about use simple tape or fiberglas cause i have to use for other things too !?!?!?
Also i did some camo outside work which gives you a pretty good view of how it´s gonna look, done !!! ;)

Here some pics of the test Setup:

The tape on the feedhose and the paper floor will get fixed as soon i found some got some cheap material !!!








Here an idea of a front grip, cause the box isn´t well for a grip like magazines(she is Slim, but not a good grip) !!! ;)

Here i checked the weight of the box with battery´s but without door, the inner floor and some fiberglas Jobs(filling gap´s), i think they will push the weight up may 50-100g more i think !?!?!?

So i´ve finished the door build by using magnet from my "Sägeboxmag" some screws, sheetmetal etc.

The link got enough friction(not moving easy) so the light door will stay open !







Yeahhh if i go stay with thoose screws, i will go file them down to nut Level !!!
