(Selling it if you're in the mid-west, 9 pounds is not fun to ship)

Made purity seals for it:

Also made a small shield to use too!

#286536 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by hummer on 03 October 2010 - 10:48 PM in Modifications

My first Blaster that I feel I can share without (much) shame.

Just a stampede with AR removal and a few cosmetic things here and there. I deem it: The Iron Brigand.

The side reads: "The day you can no longer see the fun in running around like a child is the day you begin to die" (quote from Carbon)

Totally tacticool tac rail added to the shield so my Switchshot can be holstered. It is a bit side heavy now though. Considering adding some form of ammo or clip holder on the opposite side of the shield.

Feel free to PM me with any questions.



#295256 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by hummer on 02 March 2011 - 09:41 PM in Modifications

So I recently had my faith in recons renewed after I stopped by a goodwill, this is what became of it; a Warhammer 40,000 bolt pistol

I made the back psedo-stock detachable by cannibalizing an existing recon stock:

Yes, I know my paintjobs suck, never was good at painting the miniatures either. I also hate realistic-painted Nerf blasters, but this is probably the only exception for me.

EDIT: I only did an AR removal for the innards, I refuse to do anything else because 2 recons have already died on me due to plunger tube failure.

YES! YES! THIS IS DELICIOUS! Although i won't be able to go if it's the 18th or the 4th, I'm almost certain I can come (dad has a marathon in Chicago). Could you be so kind, however as to post the end time? i know you'll probably say "when everyone's tired" or something like that, but i kinda wanna know.

#279843 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 09 July 2010 - 02:15 PM in Nerf Wars

We have an unreasonably large stash of darts.

Soo, don't bring darts.

Mehku hald told me about this, but by god that's shmexy. Thank you!



#280615 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 18 July 2010 - 06:54 PM in Nerf Wars

I can't really say much beyond what has already been said, it was pretty nice overall, despite the heat/mosquito's the location was pretty good, but the mobstacles made it better by far. Just like any first run the classes need adjusting, if anyone has any suggestions, feel free to PM me.

I'll try and get the next MANO planned in a week, as I have a crapload of work to do this week.

Thank you all for coming, as always, and see you next time!



#279224 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 01 July 2010 - 09:52 PM in Nerf Wars

Anyway i'm bringing a guest and possibly another if thats alright.

Of course thats ok! The more, the better!

Also slight bump as to the fact that field pics are in first post, go bask in their semi-glory.



#277319 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 10 June 2010 - 07:40 AM in Nerf Wars

Alright, I've bumped it up to 2 for start time.

Never have I been more motivated to make a 4' x 1' sword.

We should have a round, then, with just 4 x 1's (sarcasm)



#276934 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 06 June 2010 - 12:19 AM in Nerf Wars

I like the new classes from what I read. The IBB is the same day though, which I'd also like to go to. I'll see if I can con wicket into agreeing to a date-change to get chi-town p33p5.

Really? I thought it was the 10th, that's why I pushed this a week back, oh well

I would also like to point out that someone has left a longshot with an integrated mav from the last war at Buena park. Also a cell phone back cover.



#277514 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 12 June 2010 - 12:23 PM in Nerf Wars

Hey a friend under 13 wants to come. He might not be with me but he'll have a parent. So, can he come.

I would be a huge hypocrite if I said he couldn't. Although we do discourage under 13, it's your choice on wether you think that person is ready for a Nerf war. The more the merrier.



#277229 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 09 June 2010 - 07:06 AM in Nerf Wars

Add me as a maybe for the war.
Is it a problem if I lay claim to the reason that the melee length rule exists due to my melee weapons?

Well it's not your fault, it's one of my friends (the obscenely big-ass pole last war) and I think a little bit with myself as well (banhammer has a little too far of reach). But sure, you can be the scape goat.

#277289 Mano 2.5

Posted by hummer on 09 June 2010 - 06:17 PM in Nerf Wars

I enjoy that this war doesn't start in the morning. Although, could I suggest the war be a little longer? Five hours with a break for food seems a little short. I'm going to spent close the that much time just driving there and back. Maybe start at 1:00?

I am a definite at this point, unless unforeseen events unfold. We'll be bring Effeminate mobstacles and tons and tons of darts.

Hmmmm, I do see your point, I have extended it to 9pm instead though. I really don't want to start this in the blistering heat if I can avoid it.



#269470 Mano 1.5 - Battle For Milwaukee

Posted by hummer on 17 March 2010 - 08:56 PM in Nerf Wars

You know what? Fuck the weather. We'll still have a good time. The rain will just make it even more Effeminate.

Imagine 300 or Two Towers...that sort of Effeminate rain. Although I do have an inkling that there won't be any.

Ok, so I ran out to the site, and all snow has melted, only the lowest parts are muddy (no puddles best I could see) otherwise, just a tiny bit damp.

Well the war is tommorrow and aperently the forcast is making me eat my own words, but irregaurdless, I'll try and bring some towel/blankets.

Posted by hummer on 20 March 2010 - 05:27 AM in Nerf Wars

Final weather update - There is a frost-like layer of snow, but it has stoped snowing for the most part, enough to make it wet/look kinda cool. It's still kinda cold at this hour though, bring a jacket. See you all in a little bit :)

Edit: Snow has started up again :/

#287097 Mano 3

Posted by hummer on 17 October 2010 - 09:21 PM in Nerf Wars

In response to the glue domes, to whoever you may be, lets switch roles for a minute, you and me. I mostly use melee weapons, when you shoot me with a dart that has a friggin' glue dome and nothing else, it hurts like hell, especially at >15feet. Not only am I out, but I am also having less fun due to this turning into some kind of paint-ball-with-frozen-paint-balls as I limp back to clear or respawn. Just think the next time you even think of bringing those to one of my wars, scratch that, ANY WAR.

{Now switch back, the darts are now diamonds! Sorry, had to}

Apologies to those upset about the non-regulation, I should have been more on-that as a "host". If this happens again, I may have to start checking all the ammo anyone brings and publicly humiliate whoever didn't read the darn thread.

On a more joyful note, here are the pics:
(The next MANO will be announced probably be announced a little more than a week from now, most likely in December to avoid conflict with South Milwaukee Rumble 2.0 and WINO 1.0)

There are no shields except for the spartans, which will be provided

I guess I will make the date the 16th then, considering I'm being asked to decide a date/there probably won't be an upset in the votes anyways.
