STD CS-009 Gel Blaster Hopper
With NATO Standard Rail and Ammo Indicator
This is a Work In Progress
The CS-009/CS-007 Gel Blaster is one of the best value blasters out there. By using a gravity fed hopper instead of an electric magazine, all power is fed to the firing motor resulting in a simple design with a higher rate of fire and massive capacity.
The down-side is that it comes with a clear plastic, grenade-like hopper that takes up space on the top rail and looks out-of-place on an otherwise sleek, black, compact blaster.
My design is a direct replacement for the stock hopper. Simply, print, sand/hand-finish to fit, then mount your accessories to the new NATO standard rail on top. slide the rail forward to load.
Finishing will require:
5 X 20mm M3 bolts
5 X M3 nuts
Current features include:
Ammo Indicator slots that work great with glow-in-the-dark gels (see photos)
Full length NATO standard tactical rail
Spline profile throat for minimal feeding resistance
Reinforced, split 2mm shell construction for maximum strength with less material and faster print times
Future upgrades to include:
Adjustable mount to attach to blaster's (non-standard) hopper rail
Extended throat for more consistent gel feed
