In the SINGLE mode, the gun will fire a single shot semi-automatically once per trigger 

pull. 

 
In the BURST mode, the gun will fire three shots (at a rate of ~13 rounds per second) in a 

burst while the user holds down the trigger.  If the user releases the trigger mid-burst, 
subsequent shots will not fire.   

 
In the AUTO mode, the gun will fire continuously (at a rate of ~8 rounds per second) as 

long as the user holds down the trigger.   

 
At the bottom of the display above the battery level indicator, there is a “Gates” 

diagnostic indicator, this is for troubleshooting and indicates the status of the photogates 
within the barrel.  

 

2.7 Battery 

 

 
The EMG-02 uses a Lithium Ion battery.  You know the drill.  Big scary battery.  Hazards 

include shock, fire, explosion or venting of toxic gas.  Always store the gun and battery in a cool, 
dry environment indoors, away from any flammable materials.   

 
2.8 Magazines 

 

 
The EMG-02 uses a proprietary magazine design and retaining mechanism which was 

designed to accommodate a 15 or 18-round 3D-printed magazine (the MG18, MG15A or 
MG15XL).  These magazines use constant pressure springs to store up to 18 0.25x0.75” 
projectiles or 15 0.31x0.75” or 15 0.31x0.875” armatures.  The magazine socket on the EMG-02 
is backwards compatible with the SG18 and MG18 magazines. The MG15A and MG15XL 
magazines will only fit in the EMG-02 and not in any other accelerator.  

 
Only use the designated armature with its respective magazine as shown below: 

- The EMG-02 uses a large Lithium Ion battery.  Large lithium batteries can catch fire or 
release gas if stored improperly. Always store in a cool, dry environment.

 

- The EMG-02 uses a similar magazine retaining mechanism to SGP, GR and other EMG 
series accelerators.  Inserting the magazine should be done in a fluid motion.  There is no 
switch or button required to insert or remove the magazine, a ball detent retainer holds the 
magazine securely in place. 
- If the magazine has trouble feeding rounds or the gun becomes jammed frequently, it is 
recommended to remove all armatures from the magazine, then depress the follower with a 
1/8”steel rod or long screwdriver, then spray the cavity with WD-40 or light oil. Manually 
actuate the follower a few times to spread the oil throughout the magazine. Proper 
lubrication will improve armature feeding.
