Hello all!
Long time lurker, one time poster (so far) and was looking for some help with a Pulse Rifle ammo counter.
Let's start with some background:
I decided to finally build a dream - A live fire M41A Pulse Rifle. My base is a Kahr Thompson M1A1 and an old Remington 870. I managed to fasten the two firearms together using some techniques I found the original prop makers used and utilized the shrouds and parts from my Snow Wolf/ Matrix Pulse Rifle to fully realize the project. I would have loved to use some HGC metal shrouds but those have skyrocketed in price in recent years and are about as rare as hen's teeth. Both firearms have been fully registered as an SBR and SBS per NFA laws.
Now for my question I put out to all of you lovely folks out there. I am in need of some help sourcing a new ammo counter for this build. I currently have the old Snow Wolf ammo counter hooked up to a 7.4 lipo and original switches so it displays "0" when the mag is out and "95" with the mag in but for obvious reasons I can't use the old light gate tech for counting rounds being fired. My plan is to use a shock sensor to register each shot being fired but I need help finding someone who can make a counter that will display only 20 rounds and will only register in semi auto mode and be compatible with the housing's micro switch for the magazine. All current boards I've seen all have only full auto capability. I have so far reached out to a couple of live fire builders and Majenko Technologies but I have not gotten any further sourcing out a board.
If anyone could help point me in a good direction I would greatly appreciate it!
