Ok, i have a question

[AM-P_Pump]

would it be possible to customize the illusion into a semi auto from autococker parts so you know how you could change the autococker pump to an autococker, would it be possible to do the same for the illusion?

You mean like going from a Sniper to an Autococker? Yeah, probably, they have done air assist Illusions and I don't think it would be much to remove the handle and run a rod from the 3-way to the trigger frame. I have never seen one in person so I may just be talking out my ***, but I know they have done air assist Illusions though. Maybe Jason or Andy will get on with a little more info.

Ok I went through the disc I got from AM. There is one pic of an Air-Illusion, but it is not a very good pic. At least not showing the pnuematics very well.

My brother ran his Cocker off a 12 gram once and got like 12 good shots.

Important point: The Illusion is optimized as a pump gun, and is very efficient with 12 grams. Being efficient with 12grams means small air spaces so there is less CO2 expansion. While a semi-conversion is certainly possible, it would follow that with small airspaces you would not get a high rof without signifigant shootdown with either Co2 or HPA.

However if you use a semi like a pump, with a low BPS, it would probably not be an issue.

It would be cool to see someone setup and illusion with dual rams.

ok, cuz i was thinking about customizing my illusion like that so i was curious, any of the official am guys know if this is possible that would be great if you could respond too, thanks for the fast responses so far

It is possible; TreeGod has actually done it, but it took a lot of work and custom fabrication. It's kind of cool, but not too practical. It would be a fun project to pursue, though, if you have the time and resources.

He was telling me how many hours he put into it but i forget exactly, but it was alot

[DrifterX7]

over 100, i believe

[Gavman2]

I think your right
