That's pretty awesome!
Questions: 1) Are those stock guns? 2) What are the ranges? 3) Does the integration get in the way of the rfr's priming handle? 4) I can't really tell from the pics, but does the integration block the rfr's clip?
You know, you could make it a bolty with this mod. Cool paintjob as well.

I'm actually experimenting with .75" to 1" stefans right now. I'm loading 3-4 of them into my converted watergun barrel and using it as a shotgun. 2 or 3 of those short stefans also fits into my modded NF, thus converting it into a mini shotgun.

Wait...5 on 3? Why don't you just play 4 on 4?
You have some fairly reliable guns (LS, NFs). Maybe you should invest some time in modding your guns more; it would give you more capability on the field.
However, it all comes down to how you play. Takes a little practice to become efficient with a given gun, and different guns play differently. You just have to figure out what works for you.
I'll give you these very basic tips (none of that complicated squad manuevering stuff) that have helped me. These are the meat and potatoes of a good nerfer, in my opinion.
-Communicate, you have teammates for a reason, they can help you and you can help them.
-Pay attention (watch your backside and flanks)
-Aim then shoot, don't spray your ammo uselessly everywhere. Just take a sec to aim first, you'll score more hits that way.
-Move, don't become a sitting duck. Use cover and change positions often to avoid being pindown.
Oh, and by the way, please use capitalization and fix your grammar. A little bit goes a long way. Welcome to the Haven!

Zaxbys and I just finished hosting the SouthEast Nerf Outing (SENO) in Augusta in July, and I know Zax does a war up in Clinton, SC (PCNO I think). There are quite a few of us in the Augusta area that nerf. We may host a fall SENO later this year. Be on the look out for a planning thread...

Okay, if you're interested, my clan is preparing to host a Fall SENO. Exact date is uncertain, but we're gunning for around Labor Day. I'll have to talk to Zaxbys and his group first to see if they're interested. SENO has no age limit, but please be mature enough to take a hit, because, at the last SENO, there were some pretty hi-power guns out on the field (mine included). I still have a 2-week old welt from Zax's BigBlast. We didn't do any trading, but if a deal comes up, we may do so.

You know, I was like you for a bit. No one nerfed much in the SE, let alone GA. So I was like: To heck with it, I'll host one myself. So it started off as a small group of friends, and then I found Zaxbys on the Haven, so we played a few local wars. Eventually, we decided to host a large regional war, SENO, which turned out successful. We may even host an encore SENO.
Moral is, don't complain. Get out there, find some friends to play with. Play in the backyard, the house, the park. It doesn't have to be huge, but you gotta get out and start one yourself. Eventually, it may turn into an annual regional war, or even gain legendary status like Apoc.

I can see these being used for scenario-type matches. You know, like nerf tanks or forts, and these would serve as "anti-material" rounds. Good work.
How hard do you think these things hit? Can it go through cardboard? Just wondering, because I want to know if we can allow these at wars.
Edit: these look kinda like those grenades for the M203...

In addition to what Bomberman mentioned, putting a coupler on your NF, adding a second spring, improving the seal, and plugging the secondary AR is also a good idea. You can drastically increase your NF's range for outdoor use, and it isn't that bad indoors as well (a well modified NF can get between 50 to 70 ft). Everything you need is in the fore-mentioned Modifications Directory ----^

Yeah, NerfCrazy is right, any hi-power gun will destroy stock darts. That's why people usually use heavily-weighted stefans for these guns.

Does your model magic shrink when it dries? I've tried making pointed long-range darts for my converted watergun but my model magic shrinks slightly when it settles and thus is a little smaller than the barrel. It might be because mine is like three years old, but I just wanted to see if this was a problem elsewhere.

For those who don't know me, I was the co-host of the Summer SENO in Augusta, GA, along with Zaxbys. Since the first SENO went so well, my group would like to host an encore SENO in November. For those who went to SENO, I hope to see some of you again.
It was an honor to see some Georgians and South Carolinians at Summer SENO, and Groove himself came down from Virginia to play with us. Hopefully, we'll see even more out-of-towners this time around.
Now, time to discuss details. I personally don't mind if we play at the elementary school again, but I do have several other potential locations. As to which Saturday, make note that the 29th is Thanksgiving weekend. I have no preference otherwise. After my group gets a good idea of the potential turnout and date and gets in touch with Zaxbys, I will post an official SENO thread. Be on the lookout for that. The Southeast doesn't have enough big wars, so let's make this one to remember.
After voting, please post your name and potential number of guests so I can plan this war. Thanks!

Kinda looks like a WWII Lugar.
In fact, some of us call this a luger'd NF. Just throwing that out there...I think the barrel's a little long for a NF, if I recall correctly, a 3-4" barrel is perfect for a NF, any longer may decrease range (due to friction). But who knows, it's your NF. I'll wait for the write-up before giving you any constructive critism...

the ranges are sweet, but how accurate is it?
can it hit a person at that 100 ft?
I'm sure a lot of hi-power guns can hit people at 100ft, but that is probably just luck. Effective ranges are less than the maximum range, due to quality of dart, wind, etc.
Nice mod Dayko. I need to check the local Target to see if they have these beauties.

I'm fairly sure there are a few nerf couples. If I still had a girlfriend, I'd bring her too. But that's beside the point...
Back on topic, I am 99.99% sure we will be able to nerf at Garrett. That is my group's home field (about half of the clan lives within ten minutes of it) and we've nerfed there numerous times. As long as we clean up after ourselves and avoid destroying anything, we'll be ok. I have several secondary locations in the event that we can't use the school.
The only thing I'm afraid of is public facilities, I'm not sure if the school gym will be open on Saturday for us to use restrooms, water fountains, etc. Last SENO, this wasn't a problem however, as long as you don't mind using a bush or whatever haha. If this is a problem for anyone, just PM me and I'll see what I can do. Some of you will be coming in from out of town, so I'll see to it that your only worry is avoiding a headshot from my sni.per watergun

yes, what i want is to probably take the muzzel off, and attach an end PVC pipe 1/2" for looks possibly, and accuaracy
Okay, I already commented on your capitalization and grammar on the FBR thread, so I'm just going to shutup and let the forces that be take care of that.
One. You might as well and angel breech your LS.
Two. Adding that longer PVC barrel will decrease your accuracy. A good majority of the darts will catch the lip and fishtail. The barrel must fit the dart, unlike the stock barrel which actually has a bigger diameter than the darts. 1/2" PVC isn't going to help at all...
Three. If you want to go for looks, then do a cool paintjob on it.

If you searched you would have found it. There is a Search button in the top right hand corner of the screen.
Forsaken_angel24's angel breech is a brass breech that allows the LS to fire stefans, and gives your gun more range and accuracy. HOWEVER, if you are new to modding (as I sense you are...) you should try modding an easier gun, like a Nitefinder.
But whatever you say, here's the link to angel breech. NerfHaven and the members of the nerfing community cannot be blamed for the destruction of your gun if you should attempt this mod and fail. You have been warned.
