AEA 95 Cal

Realistically, my best guess for a fill setup for this would be a 12liter normal 4500psi tank and a booster pump, that way you could at least get a tad bit above the 4500psi reg setting and stay there. Even then I bet your total shots on reg would be pretty low.

I don’t think that it’s likely that I’ll ever get one, but if I do I imagine l’ll opt for the 7000 psi version but will tune it to run at 4500 psi with the reg set significantly lower than that. It would be nice to have the option to shoot it at full power just to say you did, but who’s going to want to wait for a compressor to fill it to 7000 psi for every shot? At 4500 psi you could get quite a few shots with a few SCBA tanks especially if you cascaded them or ran it tethered.

I'd almost get one to see how hard it smashes stuff as well as the glorious reaction and sound on steel. I suspect if I bought one it'd have problems and it would spend more time getting shipped back and forth for repairs than going bang.

Bin claims in the video the 2500gr slug is going 820fps, yes you could go lighter but it sounds to me like they may have increased the caliber a bit ahead of the power provided by the hammer spring/valve/transfer port. I’d imagine such a big slow slug would have one loopy trajectory so I’d want to keep it fast if possible.

Looks like AEA needs to poach some engineers off of one of those air cannon pumpkin chunking teams…
