I know what your all thinking is this news on time and for once it is.

There is a story behind this product.

One of Airsoft players feed me his idea, the Chamber Lock idea.

We think that is very interesting and we put into our Hopup design. His name is Brian Holt. We will definitely give him a share (if this design is profitable~)
So, if you think you are smart enough, you can feed us your idea. We can’t guarantee that we will use your idea but once we adopt it, we will share our profit with you. (again, if this item is profitable.)

Features:

Including a Tracer LED Unit (Optional, Sold separately), Chamber Lock, and Easy Adjustment Device.

(1) The LED Tracer Unit: You can buy it separately and attached to the Hopup unit. Use your AEG battery and connect to your Tracer Unit. The LED can brighten the tracer BB when BBs are in the chamber.

(2) Chamber Lock: Designed by Brian Holt. With this new hop up design you will not have to worry about losing and dropping several bb’s with a magazine change. This new design provides you with a way to keep bb’s in your AEG and ready to use and not on the floor and even better it stabilizes the top of the magazine to ensure a secure and flawless feed of bb’s into the AEG.

CAUTION: This hop up unit is designed for the experienced and responsible Airsoft player. With the magazine removed the AEG is still able to fire several bb’s. Always wear safety goggles and treat all Airsoft weapons as if they were loaded.

(3) Easy Adjustment Wheel device: Use TM G36 style adjustment device and apply on the M4/AR unit.

Cool, hope they make one for AKs.

Looks a little better than the tracer mag idea, but it still seems that you'll have BB's sitting in the hop chamber before being fired. Or being charged and you stop shooting.

This results in the next BB or few BB's to not be very bright. I still think the TM silencer design is better.

Well glad to hear that.

I think the tracer unit places the LED actually inside the hop up.

(1) The LED Tracer Unit: You can buy it separately and attached to the Hopup unit. Use your AEG battery and connect to your Tracer Unit. The LED can brighten the tracer BB when BBs are in the chamber.

Thats how I understood it at least.

Great to hear that Madbull is willing to share profits with product designers. I think I may pick one up if it helps fix mag wobble better than electric tape

here's a better image:

it appears that a BB can sit chambered and not get charged by the LED position as there will be a BB blocking the light path. at the most though, it'd be one or two BB's tops that wouldn't get charged. if you run a tracer mix, this wouldn't be much of an issue.

Is this installable without the LED thing?

Mitchell12 · November 5th, 2009, 12:24

I much prefer this method of tracers. I mean it's not like you use tracers on semi auto anyways.

coach · November 5th, 2009, 12:24

darn, no editing.

I am assuming that the grey rectangle is the LED array.

one thing for certain, the hopup wheel design could eliminate a lot of broken hopup wheels and gears. looks like a much simpler design and easier to access even if it's back slightly from the traditional location.

Anyone know if they are going to be making these to fit an AUG?

Why? The AUG hopup already works on this principle, other than the bb retaining feature.

Yes, it's the BB retaining feature I am curious about.

Small feature, I know, but it would be good to have.
