Fully Automatic Airgun

Hi all …been a long time.

Last GMGs
I came across parts for 2 more GMG-22 airguns and built them up.
The function wasn’t perfect, so I refined the design.
New parts are printing right now; the airguns will be assembled, tested, and ready soon.
If interested in buying one of these last 2 GMGs write sales@fullyautomaticairgun.com.

Make Your Own
The response for an open-source GMG was very positive.
Current plan is to publish a design tailored for you handy makers out there with access to a manual mill & lathe and also a home 3D printer.
New poll before starting the design (you can select only one):

Something New
Check out this furniture set for the Daisy Model 1938 Red Ryder BB gun.
These were 3D printed for photos, but I can mold them for sale if there were interest.

We chose to not offer a warranty with the GMG prototype airguns. Does this mean we’ll say “tough luck” if you buy an airgun and it shows up at your house non-functional? NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT. If your airgun doesn’t work out of the box, then we will make it right!

The reason we do not offer a warranty is to avoid regulation compliance costs for a 1975 federal law which governs product warranties. Instead, we have chosen to use our resources to help you the customer directly with any problem that might arise with your GMG prototype.

Think this sounds fishy? Where did we get an idea like this? Well, actually from one of the largest firearm manufacturers in the country: Sturm, Ruger & Co. (from their FAQ page under ‘service’):

“The Magnuson-Moss Act (Public Law 93-637) does not require any seller or manufacturer of a consumer product to give a written warranty. It does provide that if a written warranty is given, it must be designated as “limited” or as “full” and sets minimum standards for a “full” warranty. Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. has elected not to provide any written warranty, either “limited” or “full”, rather than to attempt to comply with the provisions of the Magnuson-Moss Act and the regulations issued thereunder.”

Ruger offers no warranty on their firearms, but they still service and repair their products to keep their customers happy. Are we Ruger? No, we are not implying that at all. However we do aspire to be as respectable as Ruger. We stand behind the products we make and will do everything we can to assure the product you buy will work at its very best.

And why this stupid waiver?

One word: liability.

Americans love to hurt themselves and sue the company that made the product they were using. We want no part in this. We are a small start up, and we don’t have access to high-priced lawyers to defend against frivolous lawsuits. We can’t risk loosing everything because some idiot shoots himself in the face and then decides to blame the GMG.

The GMG works great, and is very safe with a safe user, but we need this release just to be sure our butts are covered. Does the release cost us sales? Yes it does, but we’d rather loose a few sales than get sued for someone else’s mistake. We do apologize to our potential customers for requiring such a document, and we hope to find a way to offer our products without the need for a release waiver.

Thanks,

Of this special first batch of GMG prototypes, we still have a few left. So we’re putting them ON SALE!!! Ready for a super-duper-you-can’t-pass-this-up-SALE?

We want to clear up any confusion about what type of airgun the GMG truly is. The GMG is not a “BB gun”, nor is it a “toy”. Although we tried with the table below, you cannot compare the GMG to a Drozd, Blackbird, Steel Storm, or EBOS. The GMG is simply in a different class of airgun. If you want a cheap full-auto BB gun for pissing off crows and plinking paper targets and Coke cans, then look elsewhere.

But if you want to tap steel gong targets, mutilate 3/4″ plywood silhouettes, take down a rabid stray dog at 100 yards, then beat a coconut open for a Pina Colada celebration… the GMG is for you.

The GMG was designed as a pneumatic gun… not quite a BB gun, but not quite a firearm… somewhere in the middle.

Batch of GMG airgun prototypes waiting for new homes

At long last, the GMG prototypes are finally up for sale. We only have a small batch, so if you want one- grab it now or forever hold your peace. Please go to the Buy Now page for full details and purchase instructions.

We have net bags with a drawstring which attach to the shell ejection port and catch the spent shell casings upon ejection. They work well, and GD they are helpful when blowing through the ammo- especially around leaves.

We will include one of these bags with each prototype GMG. The bags hold over 100 shells.

Shell casing catcher

Hey! Quick update:

Check out the new video of the GMG destroying small toys on the homepage. Much fun was had making this video. There’s nothing quite like blowing hundreds of lead slugs into a lineup of cheap junk… just watch it disintegrate! I wonder if the old ladies at the thrift store had any idea where my purchases would end up?

You can't hide from the GMG in a birdhouse!

A few new pics are in the media section too.

Yes, the GMG uses ejectable shell casings. And yes, we hope to use the same shell casings in the production version.

Ejectable and reusable shell casing for the GMG

We used shell casings in the design for reliable feeding of soft non-jacketed lead projectiles (pellets) and ammo versatility (pellets or sphericals). The GMG will cycle and shoot any .22 caliber projectile that will fit into the shell casings (above 10gr). The casing also allows for easy multi-caliber conversion. We will have .177 shell casings and barrel kits available for the production version allowing you to shoot .177 out of the same airgun and magazine.

We understand picking them up for reuse might be inconvenient, but the benefits of using the casings far outweigh that drawback. The ejection port of the GMG also has attachment points for a catcher to collect the spent casings. We hope to offer the catchers by the Dec 16 sale date.

Regarding availability of the shell casings: We already made a production injection mold for these shell casings, so we have plenty available and more can be made quickly and inexpensively. Don’t worry about buying this airgun and running out of shell casings. If you have doubts and want to stock up, we’d be glad to quote you a bulk order.
