Good job on the gun but I would like to see some disassembled pictures of the gun so I can see the particulars of how it works.

#168959 Recon Problems.....we Got Work To Do

Why dont you try on the next recon you get to put some type of buffer inbetween the plunger tube inner and outer on the back end. This will stop plastic from hitting plastic which is most likely what is causing your plunger to break. The AR would normally slow the plunger down enough to make the plastic on plastic damage insignificant but without it the damage is far greater and with what seems to be the weaker plastic they are using nowadays it is too much for it.
So the answer is simple in addition to not dry firing the gun (which I garentee does more damage then it does with a dart in it) all you need to do is put a bumper in it and it will help alot I almost garuentee.

Most couplers hold a barrel IE. CPVC securly in place so no air exscapes but isn't too tight allowing it to be pulled out. This increases ROF by makinging it possible to use longer barrels without a ramrod.

You are all forgetting a key factor in the speed of the plunger and that is friction it will slow down the gun since F=MA the speed and weight are important factors to consider when making a spring gun so a lighter yet still strong plunger is a good way to improve ranges in your spring guns. However i agree with basically everything else that they say.

#171963 Poll: Which Of These Olympic Sports Should Not Be One?

Haven't you ever heard of beerfest come on now its held every year. But as far as olympic sports that shouldnt be sports, Handball might be one of the dumbest ones that nobody ever heard of but power walking shouldnt be one, I imagine the judging would be really gay for it. table tennis is fine you have to be really good to play on an olympic level, so yes everyone can play it as someone said but to play competitively you have to actually be good.I'm sorry to say it but I think synchronized swimming is a sport. The women in it throw each other in the air without touching the ground. I think that all the Olympic sports have there place in the Olympics. Just watching them makes me think, the average person can't do that. Trampolining is also a sport and deserves it's spot in the Olympics, after all, it is gymnastics. Now all they need is beer drinking in the Olympics.Ping Pong is pure sport. You guys are stupid. It's just like tennis, just less running back and fourth and groaning. Synchronized swimming ~<==8 now that isn't a sport.

Dude that has to be one of the best ways to get someone back I mean it's soo funny but you could have done one better and if hes a guy send him a gay pornagraphy every month now that would be the best way to get back at someone... without injuring them in anyway... expecaly if that person still lives with their parents/wife/girlfriend/in a army barracks.I bought a Zen Xtra because I was poor and needed a lot of space. It plays music very well, but I haven't had good experiences with it. I'm already on my third MP3 player.
My first Zen Xtra broke after it fell from my pocket. Whatever the thing that reads from the plates was called smashed into the plates and pretty much destroyed the hard drive. Luckily it was under warranty, but the Staples guy sure was mad that I brought it in on the last week of the warranty! This sort of damage isn't supposed to happen, but I didn't mind. It's the only break I've heard of with one of these.
My second Zen Xtra was stolen. Nothing else can be said because I don't know much about what went on. However, whoever stole it sure isn't getting any use from it today because they don't have the cable to recharge it. What a waste! I'm fairly sure of who the kid was who stole it, and every month I've found a sex-toy catalog and signed him up for distribution... stupid bastard probably enjoys it.
My third (and final) Zen Xtra has been working fine since I got it. With FBR padding on top of the regular case, I don't think it can be damaged very easily.
All in all, keep this stuff safe and secure kids. Once you do so, your MP3 player should provide a lifetime of listening pleasure.

No moderators don't deleate topic that haven't been posted in for a month because some actually help people. They are there for history and help. So that way people can look a mod up before they say anything and if all topics over a month old were deleted the amount of people asking for mds would at least double. It would be a mess.

Cartoon that is almost exactly how I made my nitemav but I had a NF firing case inside the mav. It doesnt work right now due to the air seal problem.The NF cylinder fits inside of the maverick very tightly AFTER you gut the inside of it. You have to do lots of custom cutting and fitting. They I hot glued the cylinder in and it's placement is just about perfect.
Yeah, my camera only uses quicktime MOV. files and I hate it. If anyone knows of some free conversion software, I'd greatly appreciate it. I tried to convert it with a cheap program and it didn't work very well. Here it is anyway:

If you want better ranges with your current setup all I can add is that you should add some rubber bands to it to stop the problem of the plunger getting slowed by the airtight seal. Also adding a new barrel like CPVC, PVC, brass, PETG , or even copper (if it fits your darts well) will improve your ranges. Good luck on the gun.

Ok, Back on topic I have played the Xbox 360 and I like it. The graphics are quite good. Personally I don't reaseach these things alot but Nintendo Has been making new consoles that are outside the box and ultimatly may sell way less or way more due tyo its uniqueness. Personally I will probably stick to my PS2 that and my donkey kong stand up arcade game. Just because the other things are quite expensive. I dont know which I want to get. But I voted PS3 because well i like playstation and because I think the gamecube blows. I really wish this argument would be stopped by the admins or by the bigger man just stopping it.

Ok so I know many of you are saying we alsready have silencers but this is a new way to make them that I came up with. I use micros so I also use 1/2 cpvc.
-So I took that and then cut it to the length of the barrel but then added on 2-3 inches.
-Then I did to make the silencer was to drill out one end of it with a 1/2 inch concreate drill bit.
-Then after I drilled rows of smaller holes in the sides to make it a silencer.
I think it works rather well and there isn't any fuss of it falling off. I use this with my airtech 2K single coupler moded. So tell me your thoughts questions and comments on it and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

I had a new idea for a clip one day when I got irritated at figuring out how to make a detacable (sp.) clip so I made one that didn't requre you to take it off the gun so it stays there. So here it is.
the red is a T joint cut in half, the light blue is pvc, the brown is either balsa wood or sheet metal, the dark blue is a hinge and the white part is another peice of balsa or metal that opens to allow stefans in. the two prongs on the outside are to pull down so the dart goes all the way in to the chamber.
In the second oneit shows the inside. This clip is based off of the other clips I have seen.
So thoughts, questions, and opinions?

Edit: sorry after posing I realized that the pics are too small so if the admins would kindly resize them it would be much apreciated

Ok I have three things to say; first what kind of ammo will be used in this gun. And second I don't think the barrel is long enough for that size of air tank. Generally what I have hear is that the volume of the barrel should be about a fourth the volume of the airtank. Third that thing will take forever to prime if you are using a bike pump.

If I were to make a cannon of death I would have PVC that fit around a poolnoodle and then have one section in back of a bunch of stefans and one in front in the barrel. So that way when it fires you get alot of stefans flying everywhere and therefore having a better chance of hitting someone with the emplacement so that way even if you get only one shot you will have made a kill or two.

Well I view assult type wepons as guns with higher rates of fire like At3ks, 4ks, 2ks (somewhat), RF 20s, fireflys and PCs.
Long range weapon is basicly a weapon that can reach about 100 feet like singled At 2Ks,3ks, and 4k (I think), LBB, and Xbows.
sidearms are handheld weapons mostly that can reach about 40-70 feetish like mav (which doubles as an indoor assult), NF, LNL, and other such.
Hold outs are guns that are like a last ditch effort goes under like 20 feet like SSPB, Hidden shot and some others.
There may be others I forgot but that's basicly it for me.
