I remember these from the 80s. I think it was Soldier of Fortune had them in the back with a small 1/8th page add with a hand drawn picture. It was like the add for sea monkeys or the 90 pound weakling in comics. I drooled over the picture and the idea of a BB machine gun. And we didn't know freon was "bad" for the environment, so no guilt. How about R134a? It would be cheaper then 88g co2. Well I'm glad one survives and I finally got to see one after 25 years, thanks.
My Dad gave me a similar model of this BB gun in the late 70's for my birthday. Mine had a BB chamber in front of the trigger (cap. 1500) and in front of that was the coolant port and screw tightened coolant support rod. Mine actually worked quite well, however, I froze my trigger finger several times when I didn't tighten the coolant support tight enough before pulling the trigger. I decimated plastic models (and a few street lights ;^C) and my enemies decided I was just a little too crazy!
Hey thanks bud I have been looking for a video of this gun for awile now I was going to buy one but I think I will go with the drozd. As the GSMG has not come out yet. I wish you could get it to shoot I would love to see the rate of fire. I hear you aimed with the steam of BBs and it could eat a watermelon for lunch.
I threw mine away when you couldnt buy freon anymore
It came from a company in florida they also had a mac 10 model.
I just bought the steel storm
Its like comparing a model t to a vette.

I had one... God knows how much ozone I ate up using the freon.... The LARC was cheap plastic, but it worked.
