STEAMPUNK HOTCHKISS 1879 IN 22LR: MADE TRIGGER/SEAR- For now single shot

Well. A dreaded trigger sear are ready. 2 piece. One was not reliable, would not hold , not trustworthy.
For now the gun even though not shooting, is mechanically sound as asingle shot bolt action. ( correction- it does feed the second round, but no more without stop- otherwise the fountain you have seen!)
Feeds nicely from the ramp, no need to insert the bullet into the barrel: drop and shove the bolt forward.
Extracts and ejects well, with the same trajectory ( different trajectory every time means lack of reliability)
Now the finish line. I need to come up with a clever design of the one bullet at a time mechanism.
Most of it will be located in the front of the lower receiver. And might be separated from an input from the trigger because of the magazine.
I,m returning back to the idea of using the feeding ramp , changing it to the one that doubles up as a dosimeter for the bullets.

You kind of painted yourself in a corner with this design. You got plenty of time to think up a bullet stop while the paint dries. I got no quick solutions off the top of my head. Everything I think up gets more complicated than a Rube Goldberg mouse trap. It's so simple now that it's a piece of art. I hope you can come up with something simple for the stop too. Wouldn't it be interesting to see John Browning's designs of all the things that didn't work? He painted himself into corners too I'd bet.

I have 2 ideas. It was a chess game. As was walking into this corner I still saw opportunities to get out. Will see. But it it getting more difficult. But I'M NOT calling it quits , not yet…

Жақсы жалған. Сіз өзіңіз ойдан құрастырған ? Немесе сізде сызбасы барма ?

Roughly based on Hotchkiss 1879 rifle, but the details are mine . No drawing

[@user-st6pr7ve2m]

Где ты берёшь все детали?

[@STEINBVG]

Материалы простые и доступные из hardware store. Стараюсь выбирать те что подходят близко и не требуют много обработки- трубопроводные компоненты например.

Why shooting??

[@STEINBVG]

Not shooting. Just mechanism
