Ricardo did great job in testing 177, still little too tight fitting but new variant is on the way to him.

FX Impact 3D printed magazine
- Thread starter ddark
- Start date
Count me in for a .25 if you start selling them. What is the maximum length for the projectile in .25?

I had the pleasure of testing the .22 mag from Ddark. Loads very similar to a daystate mag where it will click into place for you to seat the next pellet and then you keep on rotating and filling till it is all loaded up. Went though about 5 mags already, feeds flawlessly, no issues. Pic below is a quick run of a mag, .22 out of an impact, 900 fps, little over 11 yards in my basement. Not weighed, just checked for badly bent skirts. Will push it out further when the weather cooperates. Will also compare OEM mag vs the 3D mag at longer ranges. But so far so good. Pellets sit nicely in their independent holes within the mag. No chance of them getting banged up on one another.

I love the index number window; I can never tell how many shots I have left. I would like to see a full range of calibers for FX impact, in black color. I would like to purchase some in .25 and .30 caliber, plus a mag holder. Can this plastic be sanded smooth and painted to improve appearance ? could this design be CNC milled from aluminum with closer tolerances and better appearance? I realize the cost would increase, but your design might make it worth it. There is a good demand for Impact magazines, even though the OEM mags are expensive.

lot of questions, sorry for not answering immediately (for some reason i am not getting email notifications about answers). All three calibers are tested and working and i can make them. I believe this is not the place for selling, it should go to the classifieds. I am still waiting for my Impact (it will be in .22 cal for the start ) so i can test everything personaly.
Magazines are made of PETG material, very durable and they can be sanded and painted. I will make them in black with some changes in printing process so the outer skin is going to be very smooth.
I know it would be ideal to make this magazine in metal casting and CNC milling technology (i have some additional improvements in my head for that case) but i am not able to do that with the technology i have. Of course the price would go up in that case but even if it comes to the price of the original magazine we would have better magazine for the same money.
Please send me PM if interested in initial few mags.

This is the final version after changes i made in printing process and finishing procedures. These two are for one of our members.

Beautiful!
I want a couple in .30 for my Crown! I will be happy to test one for .30 if you make them. The Crown mag IS slightly different however.

Hi Tomiboy, Crown will be in the near future but i still don't have .30 cal for Impact. I am waiting for my Impact to arrive and then i will be able to check and measure everything to see is it possible to make CARM style mag in .30 cal.
If i manage to squish everything i will post it here for sure ;-)

These looks very nice.
Can you make for RAW HM1000X .22 ?
