Since the plunger system is backwards, does that make it a reverse plunger? Over all the system looks like what the mega centurion should have functioned like.
No

The slings and arrows of a broken longshot,
Or to take arms against a sea of foam,
And by opposing, end them.

#240706 Titan/magstrike Integration
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 07 July 2009 - 06:57 PM in Modifications
Even if you made shells for the primary titan shotgun, reloading is going to be incredibly awkward as the rest of the gun gets in the way. You're going to be too slow with it to rush, and you're a huge target to shoot at from well outside the range of any of those guns, since I don't see any internal magstrike upgrades. Once you fire the magstrikes, have fun reloading and repumping the entire thing - with it on the group and the barrels pointed in the sky. Moreover, the entire gun is too bulky to get a good spray with on the magstrikes, except at very closer range. In which case, your opponent is an idiot for getting so close in the first place.
Essentially, you have one superweapon that you can fire once at the beginning of the round, or keep at a base for emergency use which brings us back to the first point: only practical in very specific scenario rounds.
On the other hand, that's gotta be pretty fun just to goof off with and shoot around. Have fun picking up the darts afterwards.
#241291 Titan/magstrike Integration
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 10 July 2009 - 02:46 PM in Modifications
The video does show that the spacing on the magstrikes is actually kind of significant. It's probably too late to angle them in, so how easy is it to sweep the gun back and forth? It looks kind of awkward, since you're holding the gun with two hands...

#272648 Time To Look Inside... The Ldr!
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 19 April 2010 - 05:14 AM in Homemades
Not the plunger itself, the tube that it's in. You opened the gun by taking off the top half of it.
The giant gap you see (picture 2?) is not of the plunger tube. It is the catch section. The rod is not the plunger rod, but only a guide rod for the springs to compress on. The actual plunger rod is in the far right of the picture. That little bit of white is the back of the plunger rod. Since the plunger rod is constructed out of PVC pipe, it slides over the rail and compresses the springs.
That is, the rear of the plunger rod compresses the springs, rather than the plunger head.

They're also why ranges are given with the stock springs back in place.
#265245 The Tornadobow

Minor corrections: the plunger tube is 1-1/4" OD x 1-1/8" ID polycarbonate, the PVC rod used to hold the rubber shaft sealing skirt (9562K44) is 5/8" OD, and the PVC rod used for the plunger rod is 3/8" square.

Excellent modification. I have one question for you though. Is this modification durable? When I mean durable, I mean that it will be able to last for a few wars or 1 at the least?
Durability of a modification is almost never inherent to the concept but rather in the execution.
#205481 The Thundersplat, By Splitlip

Otherwise, creative use of the first nail to keep the gun breakable. I personally would've just permanently sealed the gun together.
#300238 The SNAP/Revolution
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 20 June 2011 - 03:30 PM in Homemades
Do you think it would be possible to even add a second extention spring on the opposite side of the plunger rod to add more power, or wold that be too much?
Most of the materials we use (especially in cylindrical form) have much higher compressive than tensile strengths. Carbon's SNAP greatly abuses this fact as the only stress points of the entire blaster are the catch (traditionally already made to be invincible) and the structural housing between the coupler and the catch (which from my first sentence, we know to be invincible).
If you wanted to add more power, just make the first extension spring stronger. Any additional springs would mean a massive headache of screws and thick parts.
Also Carbon, this is pretty awesome.

Also, great tee/elbow/bushing connection method. Definitely beats drilling holes through the tee and bow arms to get the airflow path going.

Put the pump in the handle.
Interesting, but then the gun will not be nearly as compact.
Yea, but it'll be easier to pump and you won't have to hold the gun in the wrong direction.
I would really like to see other peoples take on this, other varients and ways of taking this basic design and making it better. If anyone does, PLEASE post it up

#320237 The Remedy Metal SS Boltsled, a working and produced part

Not sure why you're making this fake review puppet storefront for them.
#320254 The Remedy Metal SS Boltsled, a working and produced part
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 09 August 2012 - 08:43 PM in General Nerf
It is in no way fake and I am a little offended that you would accuse me of creating a fake review. He sent me a sled to review and I did a video and written review on it...but if that's not good enough, I can contact him and ask him to do whatever you want because you know, everyone would love to cater to your demands.That Joshua Brown/Remedy guy is welcome to come here and make a thread himself, perhaps even detailing the build better (I have some in-progress pictures myself).
Not sure why you're making this fake review puppet storefront for them.
EDIT: I apologize for my unnecessary sarcasm and I just saw that you were a mod, however my review isn't fake. I am a promoter for Remedy Metal. I am just doing what he asked me.
That's the part I have a problem with. I called it a fake review because as Kanashimi pointed out, your original post is not a review at all. Look at SGNerf's reviews, or even autonerf's reviews of the OMW Kits. They provide useful information that let us judge the merits of the product, rather than being direct promotion. A review should identify advantages, disadvantages (of design, not price), rather than saying "buy this the money goes to help some dude!"
If you are essentially just posting a sales or advertising thread, then you might as well let the actual manufacturer make it in the trading forum, since he'll also be able to answer questions too.
Edit: The video isn't bad actually, but you should put some of what you say into words.

#275082 The Reconbow
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 17 May 2010 - 05:57 PM in Modifications
I tried cutting the entire back off of the bolt sled (If this is what you're saying to do) and it didn't work because the bolt sled would bend inward and catch on stuff when I was trying to cock it. I already cut as much of a notch as possible.
....................................................................................................................__
I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying, do you want me to turn Γ into /_Γ ? Which way should I "extend" it?
Put more triangle and less L into it. But the boltsled problem is unfortunate. You could always just put a bar across the sides as close to the mag as possible to stop it from bending in yet still giving you extra back room to add support to that trigger. You should have room because the only reason the stock bar is that far back is because it has safety lock stuff on it.
#275051 The Reconbow
Posted by Zorns Lemma on 17 May 2010 - 03:21 PM in Modifications
As to your trigger issues, I suggest either a) moving the spring to behind the plunger tube so you can move the catch forward and thus have a much more reliable trigger, or b) extending the trigger extension so instead of having a Γ you have a much more solid bar. Obviously this would require cutting the boltsled like you said not to do, but as long as you just cut a notch in it as opposed to hacking the back completely off, you shouldn't run into any guidance issues.

Pimp stock though.
Also, the solution to Split's problem is pretty simple. I can already think of multiple solutions that would take minimal refinements: 1) do it his way and channel the priming plate with the pump bars 2) double up on priming plates RTP plunger head style 3) thicken the priming plate either vertically or coaxially and add another set of screws.

I didn't have a cutting wheel to open up the piston mechanism and the tabs to lock it in place are solvent welded on.
Also so was the shell.
