#186813 Pump Shotty Issues.
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 01 November 2008 - 11:38 AM in Modifications
Any thoughts to what I may have done wrong? I also added a pad at the end, using the stock ammo, as seen in Karen. The plunger tube is airtight, as I put some etape under the o rings. I CANNOT cock the thing when a dart is loaded, it just won't happen. Seal isn't an issue.
Any help to figuring out my crappy ranges would be greatly appreciated.

Angel of Death: My darts fit OMC petg very well, I am using 12 inches of that. I added the etape after I test fired it, the ranges have not changed significantly.

I'm with AOD on this one. The stock O-ring seal is great! At least on mine. No need to add anything. Try taking the tape out and see what difference it makes. You can always put some back.
Whoops, nevermind - I forgot the double o-ring changes the geometry and makes that risky. It might work, but since I've never tried it myself I'm not going to recommend it.
Plus, if you are never going to want to vacuum-load, you can notch the plunger, just like the ends of most air pumps, to make it only seal going forward.
Ill try taking it it off. Seriously, this thing doesn't need to be coupler'd. I vaccum load all the way, it increases the ROF by so much.

they have range, and the at3k has a good rate of fire.
The maverick is the most overrated gun on the face of the planet.
Everyone thinks it is cool and tries to be gangster by using it.
5 minutes here though, those people will realize they suck.
Good job though attempting the straw mod. I tried, and could not get it to work.

It looks nice, but what did you need Vaseline for?
I guess he needed it to lube the plunger tube. DO NOT DO THIS! I believe vaseline is petroleum based, which will eat at your rubber plunger head. I would wipe it off, and use silicone lube instead. By the way, this is awesome, I am seriously considering getting one of these again (first attempt failed, but General Cole fixed it up, he currently uses it as a primary I believe)

Good job modifying it to use CPVC. Looser barrel material is usually better than tight for RSBC though. The dart has to go partway into the barrel just by shaking it.... I would reccomend PETG unless your darts are real skinny.
#226034 Barrel Length Of Bbbb Rcsb Clipped?
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 26 April 2009 - 07:50 AM in Modifications
Onto your barrel: You are using CPVC, if my eyes do not decieve me. CPVC can be a great barrel material, but not for air guns. Perhaps your FBR is really thin, but usually, PETG or 9/16 brass is better for airguns. Airguns= looser barrel material. 1 foot of CPVC will probably kill some range, try switching the barrel material or cutting down the barrel to 8 or 9 inches.
#234812 Repairs, Any Suggestions?
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 07 June 2009 - 02:59 PM in General Nerf
A huge, recently common problem is if the entire plunger head stem breaks off. This is more prone to occur if you store the gun while it’s primed, as the constant force on the stem weakens it over time, until it shoots off. The best way to repair this, is to pilot an 1/8″ hole about 1/2″ down into the center of the end of the plunger rod. Take a nice fat 3/4 - 7/8″ mounting or wood screw, run a 3/4″ fender washer, then your plunger head neoprene washer, then another 3/4″ fender washer (both uncut), and screw it into your piloted hole slowly until it can’t go any further. If you’re using the replaced plunger tube, a 1 1/4″ neoprene washer will do the job, but a 1 1/8″ one will be the perfect seal. They’re just significantly harder to find.
Taken from Split's guide.
Yeah, it will work, no it will not be completely stock, either.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: I use a 1 1/4 with my stock PT, it works great

I got pretty good ranges, 75ft with 3 pumps with an AT2K pump (plugged). You are getting better ranges with the bigger tank, but do you really want to pump it 100 times? I think it is well worth sacrificing 5ft of range for the improved ROF.

EDIT: I finished it today. Will post a write up soon, because doing what I did had a funny side effect: It greatly increased the seal, and therefore the range.
#163127 Non-advancing Magstrike Mag
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 17 July 2008 - 07:07 PM in Modifications
So... I bought an Iron Man Magstrike, and I loved it. So naturally, I had to have more. I did a few modifications (the usual bladder space increase, safety removal, and OPR valve removal), slapped it back together, and BAM! Only shoots one dart (ranges not exact, but I'd say, oh, three inches) and the clip does not advance. Plus, so as to add insult to injury, when no clip is inserted, the advancement wedge DOES come forward.
Ugh. Can anyone help me figure out what's gone wrong?
I had the exact same problem. I scrapped it, as I hate the thing, but I believe that I put the parts in wrong.
Try making sure the parts are in exactly as they should be, and try again.
This is why powerclips are so much better. They don't have these kinds of problems.....

#218747 Petg Question
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 19 March 2009 - 03:06 AM in General Nerf
From what crooked said my darts are ok. I just want some of that sweet harder foam backing rod that FA24 has. The crummy grey stuff at rona just isn't the same.
I've used 10 ft of PETG so far and I've only made 2 guns. My theory is if it only fires one dart before you have to reload, why bother?
Oh, plus Keitan's shotgun requires 2 more feet of PETG then the next 2 mods I'm thinking of will require 7 more feet of PETG.
That rona stuff is the most frustrating crap I have ever had the misfortune to use. It fits NOTHING!! I ordered some OMC petg about a year ago, and it didn't fit that, it was too big, then I tried rona CPVC, and that was too tight. 17/32 was too. Angel's FBR is awesome. Use that or Hereticorp's black stuff.
Oh and you won't regret ordering 50ft. I ordered 20ft, I was out within 2 months...
OMC is in stock I believe, he was out a while ago, but I believe he got some more.
#218934 Integration Glue Help
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 20 March 2009 - 01:57 PM in Modifications
I use some glue that has a similar make-up to zap a gap, and then I put epoxy putty over that. It hasn't failed me yet.
You mean Fishin' Glue. And I personally like this stuff, it is easy to sand, and twice as strong as Fishin' Glue.
Yeah, that stuff looks pretty amazing. If I were you, Umpshapapla (sorry if I butchered your name) I would tack it with fishin glue/zap a gap, and then put this epoxy stuff that nerfnut is talking about over that. I don't think you want to hold your integration piece imobile for 30 mins for it to set. The fishin glue sets in 15 seconds, and it will hold the joint for the epoxy to work.

#203681 Singled Titan And Hvz
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 15 January 2009 - 08:35 PM in Off Topic
There's no way in hell I'd let a Titan (or a BBBB, for that matter) see play in a HVZ game. I f anyone protests, just direct them to Angel's video--in which the fella taking the hit from a Titan is injured rather spectacularly. Anyone who doesn't have enough sense to recognize that these would be extremely bad for HVZ is not the kind of person I'd be comfortable with sharing the game with.
BBB not BBBB. I am still trying to wrap my mind around the Titan/Big Bad Bow comparison. The way some people's minds run..................frightening.
I was just saying that while Titans should be right out, even BBBBs (which are commonly used at nerf wars) are inappropriate for HvZ. Anyone who thinks that getting hit by a BBB is comparable to being hit by a titan needs much education. BBBs should be fine--not effective alone, but safe. I plan on using my SNAPbow for HvZ--with a RSCB clip to tone down the range and up the ROF.
RSBC clips BARELY kill range at all. I wouldn't participate in HvZ with a Snapbow RSBC'd. At massacre 2 K9 was using a pump shotty with a RSBC, and it shot at least 60ft, with no spring replacement or internal modification. It hurt, it's ROF was insane.
Anyway, Eddie, shoot this jerk in the arm with a titan at close range, and he will NEVER want to touch the thing again.

Nice music haha. So were the blastfires just a gift, for a contract, or payment for something, or what?
He told me at massacre 2 he got 8 of them for quite a good deal from some guy out west.
Good video as always, FA.
#207858 Keyring Rig Help
Posted by mystefansdontflystraight on 30 January 2009 - 11:49 AM in Modifications
1. The LSFG has NO potential. Your crappy ranges are normal.
2. An incomplete trigger pull will only affect air guns, as the air leaks out slowly. As long as it fires, you are fine.
Otherwise, nice job. Your LSFG integration is much cleaner than mine.
