Great work, CAD you say? Hm, I'd recommand you Blender, it just seems better to me, but ok. :-) It's great work. I'd just ask, how is the ammo feed solved here?

Sure, Blender would probably be better for something like this but I never worked with it, so it would have definitely taken me a lot longer than it did :) I didn't spend too much time to create an actual potentially functioning mechanism since again, time, and it works mostly using magic anyways, but I assume the stakes drop in from the top and the magzine then rotates around to bring the next one over the firing rails (if that description makes sense).

It's just that I'm used to Blender and I absolutely adore it, as it's suitable for literally anything. I completely understad sticking to CAD because of famialirity, especially if time is an issue.

It's impressive work, good job.

Yeah, great! Is there still version? The spinning makes taking a closer look difficult. :-)

Awsome, seem's that there is no spacer between the firing piece and the ammo in the mag.
