Some guns have a compensator, this one is the over-compensator! I won’t ask what inspired the design but you will be inspired to take down all the bad guys with this one. Working slide recoil gives that satisfying ‘clack’ as your enemies go down. This also features the two option buttons and RGB LED in all Blamcons. Note that these movie replicas are works of love and will only be offered as free 3D printable files for you to build.

Features:

  • Trigger and A/B buttons
  • Rumble
  • Recoil with working slider action
  • RGB LED
  • GX-16 swappable connection

Step by Step Instructions

PARTS

  • 40mm Red/White/Green/Black wires
  • USB connector

STEPS

  1. Tin both ends of the wires by adding a little solder to the wires.
  2. Tin the USB connector by adding a bit of solder to the contacts, you only need a small amount!
  3. With the USB connector facing solder side up solder each wire by touching the tinned contacts together first then adding heat.
  4. Check carefully for bridging!

PARTS

  • Soldered USB connector
  • GX 16 – 6 Connector
  • 120mm 22ga two strand wire

STEPS

  1. Tin one side of the 22 ga wires
  2. Tin all 6 GX 16 connectors by placing the solder in the channel and adding heat Solder the wires by touching the tinned end of the wires to the tinned contacts, get the wires in the channel for the best fit.
  3. Solder: 26ga red: 1, 26ga black: 3, USB red: 3, USB green: 4, USB white: 5, USB black: 6

PARTS

  • Neopixel LED
  • 50mm Red wire, 50mm White wire, 50mm Black wire

STEPS

  1. Tin the three Din pads on the LED, be careful not to bridge them
  2. Tin one end of each of the three wires
  3. Touch each wire in turn to the tinned pad and apply heat, they should join very easily.
  4. Check again for bridging! And make sure you’re soldering to Din and not Dout

PARTS

  • Soldered Neopixel LED
  • LED Diffuser

STEPS

  1. Wear gloves, trust me on this one.
  2. Secure the LED diffuser in a clamp or double tape to a surface.
  3. Fill the Diffuser with hot glue, make sure it’s bulging out the top.
  4. Quickly place the LED in the hot glue, it will fit perfectly and should squish the glue out.
  5. Remove the excess glue around the edge.

PARTS

  • 8mm metal button
  • 75mm Blue wire X 2

STEPS

  1. Stick the wires through the holes and solder in place.

Note: Do NOT hold the iron on the poles too long, the B button housing is plastic and if you melt it it may stop working. If you add heat quickly it won’t be a problem.

PARTS

  • 7mm Rumble Motor

STEPS

  1. Measure 24mm from the base and cut the wires, you can go longer if you want to but this is the min
  2. Carefully strip 2mm at the ends

PARTS

  • Mini Microswitch

STEPS

  1. Close the microswitch, when you do so a small amount of the leaf will stick out.
  2. Grab that with pliers and bend it by opening the switch and pushing down on the main part of the leaf with a finger right at the point it goes into the pliers. This keeps pressure off the pivot of the switch and creates a sharp bend.
  3. See step 8 for result.

PARTS

  • Mini Microswitch 130mm Yellow wire
  • 140mm Black wire

STEPS

  1. Solder the black wire to the common pin where the metal leaf connects to the switch.
  2. Solder the yellow wire to the middle pin, which is normally open.

PARTS

  • Blamcon_Auto9_BodyLeft_V1
  • 8mm metal button
  • 120mm Gray wire
  • Soldered Trigger switch
  • 12mm X 2mm metal rods

STEPS

  1. Insert the A button into the hole on Blamcon_Auto9_BodyLeft_V1 and screw on nut, spinning the switch is easier at the end
  2. Install the mini microswitch on the 2mm rods through the holes in the frame (If you are using an Omron microswitch bend the connectors down so they won’t get pinched in the frame)
  3. Solder the gray wire to the A button on the pole that’s furthest from where the trigger switch will go

STEPS

  1. Run the black wire to the A button and make a nick in the wire where it touches the contact on the A button, pull the nick to expose the wire.
  2. Solder the black wire and gray wire to the A button.

PARTS

PARTS

  • M4X25 Pan Head Screw
  • M4X15 Pan Head Screw

STEPS

  1. Insert the front into the V groove in the frame
  2. Make sure the holes line up and there’s no support material or obstruction
  3. Screw the 24mm screw into the top hole, and the 16mm screw into the bottom hole

STEPS

  1. Place the button wires into the wire guide first
  2. Place the Camera wire on top of the button wires
  3. Pull the wires back until there is no slack in the top where they are exposed, you don’t want them to rub against the slide

PARTS

  • M4X25 Pan Head Screw

STEPS

  1. Screw the 25mm screw in to join the frame
  2. This is the best time to check for wire pinches, gaps or other issues and resolve them, it should fit together with no gaps

PARTS

  • M4X18 Pan Head
  • M4X20 Pan Head

STEPS

  1. Screw the 18mm screw into the bottom front hole of the grip
  2. Screw the 20mm screw into the bottom back hole of the grip

Note: Do not get these confused or you may cause a bulge in the frame

PARTS

  • Pan Head M4X 25mm X2

STEPS

  1. Screw the pan head screws in until the two halves of the frame is flush, be careful not to pinch the wires

PARTS

  • Solenoid

STEPS

  1. Install the solenoid as shown
  2.  Push the wires into place in the plastic until they match the picture, you don’t want them rubbing against the frame

PARTS

  • M4X6 Grub Screw X4

STEPS

  1. If you have an M4 tap, tapping these hole helps a lot
  2. If you are not tapping, run the set screw in slowly, with the solenoid out, backing them out every turn or so. Go all the way through into where the solenoid is, then back them all the way out again. You want to cut these grooves smoothly.
  3. With the solenoid in place, run the 4 set screws until they juuust touch the solenoid, do not tighten.

Note: Set screw have very little material between the head and body, applying too much force can cause the head to bulge out, jamming it. You really gotta try to do this but it has been done.

STEPS

  1. Looking from this angle, align solenoid using the set screws until they center the solenoid
  2. Lightly tighten, do not overtighten, it will stay in place

PARTS

  • M3X25 cap head screw

STEPS

  1. Align the solenoid actuator hole into it is level with this hole
  2. Run the cap head screw though the hole in the solenoid actuator until it’s all the way in
  3. Move the slide, it should move very freely, if need be adjust the set screws by backing one side off a quarter turn then tightening the opposite a quarter turn, do until the slide moves freely
