You're right. Anyway, you said you made that in the Christmas spirit, well you do realize what you have to do don't you? You have to shoot carollers who come to your door with it.
Why else would I have made it?

You could use it to take out "santa" when he comes down the chimney ^_^

Posted Image

close up of the workings

Its the smple sprinkler valve, with a bike pump. I plan to get a battery powered compressor but can"t decide on the brand
Its not my idea but I changed the brace for the bike pump by adding a vertical and horizontal brace. I also made a missle shooting barrel and a arrow shotting one as well
So what do you think?

Wait, I'm confused, when it is cocked does the plaunger end come out of the back like an nf?

And if so does that mean you could band it like the nf?

Sorry if this question is retarded, I'm new

Posted by dadude778 on 25 October 2007 - 05:24 PM in News

It look descent.

Pros.

Clipped pistol.
Takes longshot clips.
Since you can take off the stock and other parts you won't have to take out about a million screws like the longshot.

Cons.
Stock look flimsy
Laser is probably cheap
And how you have to cock it

I just know that I will get one

Anyone in the Order Of The Arrow?

I am in OA, pretty fun acheivment. The hardest thing I ever did in scouts was shotgun merit badge. I am a small guy( 14 years old and still under 100 pounds and under 5 ft). When I got there they ran out of ammo for all the small guns so I had to use a 12 gauge pump action long barrelled shotgun, man that thing kicked like a mule. I had a bruise on my shoulder for 4 weeks. I got the badge though. hit 18 out of 25 clay pidgions on my first time with a shotgun( thank you nintendo duckshot)

#131621 What Do Other People Think Of Nerf?

Posted by dadude778 on 07 December 2007 - 07:23 PM in General Nerf

Yeah I am pretty much the same. My parents are OK with it but could care less. Most of my friends love that I nerf and come over to nerf as much as possible. The younger kids on my street want me to mod their guns but my father will not allow me because he thinks we will be "sued". One time the word at school got out that I nerfed and I just showed them a link to my sprinkler valve air rifle and they shut up. The only thing that parents don't like is the money and time I devote to it. They think that its a waste of time to sit in the basement and make stefens or mod. But once I told them how cheap stefens were to make and the improvements I made to a gun they didn't bother me anymore.

P.S. In school don't say nerf GUN say nerrf BLASTER( bad experience)

#131225 Outtakes Of Nerf

Posted by dadude778 on 02 December 2007 - 09:36 AM in General Nerf

It was a 1vs1 war in my basement with my friend Anthony. I was using a double shot and he was using an nf. I was reloading the ds and the left shell got jammed. He started to close in on me so I just reloaded the right shell. We both turn the corner and he shoot first. I feal a thud in my ds and then I shoot. First his shot comes out the barrel then mine. His shot went straight into my gun. The funny thing is that the his stefen flipped around and nailed him in the earlobe. We could beleive that from 10 feet away his shot went into my gun, it was amazing.

I like the longshot for its clips and the nf and bbb for their simplicity.

Posted by dadude778 on 25 October 2007 - 09:17 PM in General Nerf

FA_24 is who influenced me to try harder mods and really got me more into Nerf, If Forsaken wasn't here I am sure that you would be sitting at home with an nf thinking "Whats a Plunger"

So I warn you now, never tell anyone at a war your usar name or you will be personally taken out ( If I knew who you were I would keep on shooting even if you were down

This was for you Angel

Peace

#132236 Other Sports Or Shooting Sports

Posted by dadude778 on 12 December 2007 - 09:13 PM in Off Topic

I like sport shooting, especially shotgun shooting. Archery is fun but I normally have so much sugar I can never keep my shots consistant. rifle shooting is fun too.

I shoot skeet (shut your mouth) and trap with my Stoeger Condor Over-Under.

My highest sporting clays score is a 72.

I don' know how to score but the second time I held a shotgun I hit 21 out of 25 clay disks ( Is that any good)

I agree with Shadow Hunter, you better mod the magsrike well because that thing sucks without modding even in an indoor war.

#128992 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 07 November 2007 - 08:26 PM in Modifications

Dude, just so you know putting a BBB spring inside the LS does get you better ranges but at a price. Your LS will break after awhile. The BBB spring is just to powerful for it.

Yeah it would have been 20 bucks and a useless bbb to put the spring in there
I had also heard stories of peoples breaking with the bbb spring so I decided to forget it

And also...

Blasphemy how do you reinforce the bolt sled if you wanted to?

Hey thanks I plugged the hole and the distance has improved but it still makes that annoying noise and it seems like it is just barely better than stock if not equal. Now what did I do?

#128793 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 01:47 PM in Modifications

Okay I think that I found the hole that you are talking about but i cannot figure out a way to plug it with tape from the inside.

#128791 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 01:22 PM in Modifications

No the dart tooth is definetly still there and when the bolt slides forward it pushed the streamline back into it like it should. And did you mean the hole that you can see if to take out the mag and look with the bolt closed

#128789 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 12:33 PM in Modifications

Hi I am new to nerfhaven and am having some problems. I decided to buy a longshot about a month ago. After geting annoyed that it couldn't fire stefens I decided that I would try to do carrtoon mod to start. So I took out the ar and added another spring and put it back together. I shot it and it made a super loud noise and the streamlines went half the distance as before. I tried my stefans, CTDs and every other dart that worked in the longshot and they all didn't work .Whats did I do wrong? I checked the seal on the plunger head and must have opened it up 5 or 6 times with no success.

Thanks

#128820 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 06:01 PM in Modifications

Yeah ok I did this and it made the range slightly less but the noise went away . Anyway I will tell you exactly what I did to give you more info
I opened it up and got to the plunger tube
I used the dremel and cut through the part in the back until it was wide enough for me to pull out the ar
the only thing that I didn't do to the plunger tube and bolt was to take out the peg
should I do this or will it affect the range/accuracy in a bad way.

Sorry but I am new and don't know how to set up pics yet

Posted by dadude778 on 07 November 2007 - 05:55 PM in Modifications

Yeh thanks I tried making CDTSs and I could not get them as accurate as my stefens. As for the Angel breech, I would have tried that later but there is no brass in my area.

Thanks for the tips though.

In my basement I have a table which I put my guns on and a place where I put frequently used tools( screwdriver, hot glue gun, e-tape, pliers, ect) I steal all the other tools I use from my dad and I work on my basement floor. I also have 30-40 feet of assorted pvc and cpvc. Finally I have my fbr which is straightening in my cpvc.

#128952 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 07 November 2007 - 05:24 PM in Modifications

It works! I wasn't able to go to Target for a bbb and being inpatient as I am looked for a good spring. I found a toilet paper roll spring that fit the longshot plunger tube perfactly and here are the results
Streamlines
79'
74'
80'
77'

My crap stefens
66'
67'
65'
70'

There was also a wind which affected it but I am only useing stefens in this baby because the streamlines are way too inaccurate.

Anyway thank you for all your help, especially you Captain Slug, You have all warmly welcomed me and I greatly appreciate it
