The insane gas-eject-special NewVaq357:

The gas tube routing has been improved at least somewhat since:
The gas line will outright replace the ejector rod housing once I have the magazine feed system installed - brass spring-loaded tubes a foot long holding 7rds that plug into a new hole in the recoil shield just left of the hammer. This will give it an overall feeding system nearly identical to the 20mm cannons on the F86 SaberJet, except manually operated instead of electric rotation . Never been done on a handgun that I know of.
It'll feed out of the mag only once the cylinder is empty, and will be holstered with no mag. So any time after drawing, the capacity can be bumped up to 7rds plus whatever is already in the cylinder, 13 shots max. Only once an empty chamber goes past the mag will it feed a new round out of the mag.
As is with just the auto-eject working, the upper half of the two-stage loading gate auto-drops after the first shot, opening the upper half of the gate to auto-ejecting. See the video again and watch the loading gate. It can also be flipped completely down to freewheel the cylinder in the usual Ruger fashion. The internals and transfer bar are unmolested .
The sight is a one-off copy of a pre-production prototype of the Goshen Enterprises Hexsite, used with permission so long as I don't publish photographs yet. The previous incarnation was somewhat similar:
The ultimate goal is to get the total firepower and reload speed up to modern DA wheelgun spec or better and go race it head to head against DA guys in ICORE or the like . It'll be without question the most tacticool SA wheelgun ever built .
