EvoMac Project Introduction and Range Test

The EvoMac looks like a generic SMG that you would find on bad guys in a video game. Keep up the good work!

To me it's like a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 that is similar to the CZ Skorpion. Basically a CZ Scorpion Evo 2.

Cool statement but not true, Browning designed the actions of firearms, these guys utilise already established weapon actions and components to make new firearms that on the inside arent anything new.

[@darploin5071]

When you're designing the lower for it you never want to alter the magazine you want to alter the design so it'll work with the magazine and that way you keep the magazines 100% compatible with the original farm that was designed for and the back of living the first rule of thumbing coming up with a new design if you're using somebody else's magazines do not alter the magazine alter the design of the lower portion of the firearm to take the magazine as is

[@drmachinewerke1]

Is there a stl available

[@fabiangonzalez-cortes8894]

Have you looked at all into the feed ram angle that the 9mm colt AR inserts use? I'm thinking that because of how much further back the mag is on those you can have a less steep angle.

[@booliganshootingsports]

Probably wouldn’t help with this as the geometry is reliant on the placement of the barrel, bolt, fcg, etc.

[@alepepperoni2563]

[@barrygregg3476]

Any more info on this one? I just picked up a complete upper the other day and I'm looking at ideas.

[@abelleu7551]

If printing magazines that fit can show more issues than sanded factory magazines, might not be a bad idea to also design a jig to sand down mags close to fitting and then fine tune it to fit.

[@booliganshootingsports]

That's exactly the plan! I realized that I explained option 1 (sanding a factory mag) but I forgot to explain option two which is a printable double stack/single feed Evo 3 shaped magazine which I designed and tested briefly. It runs fine, but I really want slightly modified factory mags to be the preferred way to run this. And having a "your mag must fit this profile" jig is a big part of that plan.

[@ThePatriotParadox]

Absolutely love it, taking gun manufacturing to another level, just hope to new laws don't make it impossible to get uppers

[@rybred007]

Wow this is exactly what I've been looking for! Any chance for a pic Rail on the back and top?

[@booliganshootingsports]

The rear brace is mounted with a picatinny rail, and Velocity Arms sells Mac uppers with a side charging handle and top rail!

[@nynshawty5608]

is this still in production, i like your simple print builds all your builds use the least pla and this looks like another easy one

[@nextlvlroy]

For some reason I thought this was the same thing as the Czar off of odyssey. Can't wait for this one to be completed.

[@TwitcyTrain]

I think the EVO MAC and the SVTR are the best looking MAC designs so far.. I really want an actual Mac 11 style frame/receiver for the VMAC upper.

[@charlesh6519]

It would be awsome if velocity arms would bake a bolt assembly specifically for the scorpion magazines!

[@kaned647]

Have you released the stl files for this? I’m super interested…

[@autoxinvr]

How's this project going? It looks beautiful.

[@darploin5071]

The way you get around the double feed issue is you do double feed ramps and the best illustration is on an AR-15 that has the dual feed ramp option and that's how they solve the problem but first rule thumbing gun design when you're using another style of magazine and not designing your own don't alter the magazine alter the design so the magazine will work as is

[@booliganshootingsports]

The issue is, with the Mac upper or bolt, you have to do machining in order to fit an Evo mag without modifications. Since that’s out of the realm of possibility for most end users, modifying the magazine to fit is the better option for a DIY project.

[@darploin5071]

@@booliganshootingsports I know you want to use a Scorpio evo magazines because there's so much cheaper than Glock mags and if you can get it to work without modifying the magazine you really got a winner there

[@booliganshootingsports]

Not yet. Still heating other mags to make sure we don’t have any feeding issues.

[@jefflemaster2850]

Could it be a magazine spring and recoil spring issue? I’ve had similar feed issues and sometimes it’s just an issue with spring strength. Just a thought- great video!

[@booliganshootingsports]

Shouldn't be a mag spring issue since it's a brand new factory mag. It's really just stemming from the biggest issue of proverbially making a round peg feed into a square hole. Mashing parts together that were never meant to coexist, but it's improving greatly with every small tweak!

[@ameritus9041]

Do the cz mags that were modified to work with this still function in a cz scorpion? It would be very nice if they did.

[@biggieevans]

So where is the file for this?

[@sirgilbertcartieriii6243]

I might sound inexperienced but if this masterpiece is having feeding malfunctions towards the last few rounds maybe shortening the magazine to increase spring pressure to push the next round in? Or maybe a custom magazine made a certain way for this gun only? (I mean the bottom of the magazine)

[@CornstarchColonizer]

[@booliganshootingsports]

I've had a lot of people comment on my super short test vid that "It would run great if you fed it better ammo" and I'm like, sure, it probably would. But that's not what's available to everyone all the time (myself included) and I really do think it's important to design something to the worst available product as that's what will become mostly available in slim times like the present. We'll get her running like a top soon :)

[@beardoe6874]

@@booliganshootingsports I don't see steel case ammo as a reliability issue, it's a wear issue. It will beat up your extractor and chamber at a much higher rate. It might beat up the feed ramp and the magazine too. Some things like an AK or a Mosin are robust enough and not particularly refined to begin with so steel is appropriate. They also have a lot of case taper which is important. For something more refined, less robust, less case taper or you just don't want it to wear out, brass case is the way to go. Brass will let you tweak the design to feed with less wear so you won't have to worry about improvement coming from your design vs break in.
