#250861 Wings Of Freedom Tour

Posted by jubjub517 on 19 September 2009 - 04:05 PM in Off Topic

For about twelve years now, I've been going to my local Airport to see something pretty cool. A B17, B24 and a P51 take a nonstop tour, all around the US. The Collings Foundation owns all these Planes along with a massive collection of WW1, WW2, Korean War and Vietnam War Aircraft. The Collings Foundation is located in Stow, MA; New Smyrna Beach , FL; Houston, TX. Along with these Aircraft, the founder, Rob Collings, also owns many old and new cars too.

And then some pictures of the planes...

#254159 Why Talio Hates You All

Posted by jubjub517 on 20 October 2009 - 10:33 PM in News

Talio, what did I tell you about feeding the members?


I have no idea what you said, but this was needed. More than I had originally thought.



#282244 Which Saw To Get?

Posted by jubjub517 on 05 August 2010 - 08:22 PM in General Nerf

Well, I am looking just to cut off useless crap like a longshot bipod, or cut the front off of a vulcan.


You do realize that you can simply unscrew the front of the vulcan off right?

Ok, so five people it is.

But it doesn't really matter; because in the end, you will all fall to my riot shield.

#255435 Vulcan?

Posted by jubjub517 on 05 November 2009 - 09:54 PM in Modifications

I trying turning on the automatic switch on my Vulcan and nothing happened, so i took it apart and everything looked to be in place. Any other possible problem's i could be having?


Most likely a wire broke off, or some minor issue. Although, pictures would help.

#262882 The First Look At The Tetrastrike

Posted by jubjub517 on 24 January 2010 - 12:44 AM in General Nerf

I need a tank comparison. They look small, but they also have some depth to them.

Do you think the tanks are separable from one another?



#264993 The Easiest Telescoping Longshot Barrel Ever.

Posted by jubjub517 on 10 February 2010 - 08:23 PM in Modifications

Streamlines are a very loose fit in 9/16th. Especially once they have worn down after a few shoots. You're going to need to put tightening rings on the barrel, or even a small (around 2") segment of 17/32" in the back. You should get much better ranges.

oh, and on that last pic- it would help if you had a clip in.


It was supposed to be loose because I still have the dart tooth in. I still might try the 17/32 though just for shits and giggles.

...Yeah, I know I forgot the clip. It was intended to be a joke...You do know who Mr. Bill is, right?


oh... Seriously, just Angel breech it, or do this. The dart tooth serves no help with a segment of 9/16th. I'm surprised your even getting 50's with your current setup. And forget what I previously said, I didn't realize you still had the dart tooth in.

Go here for more help with your LS.

And yes, I know who Mr. Bill is.


-12" (ish) section of 1/2" thinwall PETG from visipak. I used the thinwall, which is very loose on streamlines. This is a plus since the seal between the breech and the barrel isn't perfect, but it still adds exponential range over the stock ls barrel.



The mod you recommended is nearly the exact same thing that I did, except it doesn't telescope. I'm sorry if I come off as rude here, but do you even know what the fuck you're talking about? The PETG in his mod is very loose on streamlines, just like my 9/16''. I don't want an angel breech for this ls because I can't make stefans for shit, it's less durable than the stock breech, and it's almost 30 dollars in brass. Not to mention the $75 dollars or sheer time to have/make a modded drum mag.

My longshot shot the same if not less distance even without my barrel, so don't go assuming that my barrel setup is retarding the dart. The only thing that I wanted from my barrel was to make my darts more accurate, because really, just when in the hell are you going to shoot someone over 75+ feet away with a longshot?

Sorry if that seemed offensive, I didn't intend it to be.


Telescoping does nothing, you do know that right? Only the 9/16th is improving the accuracy.

Angel Breeches aren't just for stefans, they can work with cut down streamlines also. And, modded raider drums arn't that hard to make, you just need the necesary materials and time. Nor are superclips, which hold ~12-13 darts. I can make a angel breech in under a few hours, and it would cost me ~$10 for all the brass. And it is durable. I've had one for close to a year with only a few minor wears n' tears. And I treat my guns like shit during wars.

Who said you had to use Petg? whats wrong with brass?

Btw, the stock barrel overlaped the Petg to create a nice seal. Not perfect, but still much better than yours.

I ment to post thiswriteup instead btw. Though theres nothing wrong with bpso's mod. just use brass instead of aluminum.

Edit: I'm sorry if I've come across.. cross. I didn't mean to "get on his back". I simply was annoyed and let the worst of me, get to me. I've just had a long day today, and I'm just in a bad mood. Sorry.

If I'm wrong correct me. Don't bitch to me. And theres no need to repeat one's point nerfman.

#261463 Smith & Wesson 1911 Style Foam Dart Gun

Posted by jubjub517 on 11 January 2010 - 01:08 AM in Modifications

Wow, great job. Love the paintjob.

However, jerm did this on his blog about a month ago.

One problem I've experinced with flexable tubing (I.e. Pex pvc) is that it will start to deform after one or two bends. Does this happen to hep20?

#292901 Semi Auto Valve For Backfire Tanks

Posted by jubjub517 on 15 January 2011 - 11:17 PM in Homemades

Issues resolved: Hornet sliding valves have more inputs than are needed for one tank, and sliding the O-rings past any of the extras will vent your reservoir. Those extra inputs are also waiting to chew up your o-rings.
Benefits: O-rings only traverse one hole. Extra brass on the venting end will turn your valve into a piston that will push back on a trigger (as discovered by Boot), or maybe open a bolt sled (a hint at what I've been working on). It looks simpler and cleaner, and unless something breaks, a seal fails, or you push your piston through the cross section, you can't vent your reservoir.


I hate to say this, but I'm going to have to protest this.

In your current setup, your fighting against the pressure of the reserve tank. In cheesy's mod, he had o rings on both sides of the reservoir's input. This is the same basic concept zero invented. This eliminates all the pressure against the trigger. Although you say it's manageable, it can be a hell of a lot better.

The extra inputs on a hornet valve don't hurt the o rings in any way. In fact, the sharp thin edge of the brass is more likely to damage your o rings then the hornet. This doesn't vent your reservoir either, which is why there are two o rings instead of just one.

If you really want a "semi-auto valve", I'd suggest just using a hornet trigger valve. If you are unable to get your hands on one, then I suggest atomatron's valve. Using cpvc is a hell of a lot easier then dremeling and soldering brass. But thats just my 2 cents.



#272862 Salem State Nerf Game

Posted by jubjub517 on 21 April 2010 - 12:23 AM in Nerf Wars

His guns, no. My furyfire, yes. Thankfully i reminded him that it was mine. He just went around taking guns and using them, like he was testing them for a company or something.


I'm pretty sure he stole a maverick or two from sky. He tried to steal my raider, but only made out with the three clips I had with it. He also broke my xbow too, after I told him he couldn't use it. Can't wait to meet his fat ass at the next war.

Anyways, the war was great. My friend and I had a lot of fun, and plan to at the next war.

Wow, you guys are all losers! (just kidding, I almost didn't make it, too). I'm a go. No Shelby, though. Just me and Clay.


I hate to continue the streak, but I'm sick at the moment, and I doubt I'll make it.

I will be there come April. This is a definite.

#303659 Royal River Northeast War,

Posted by jubjub517 on 21 August 2011 - 01:49 PM in Nerf Wars

Wes and I have been trying to schedule a war for a few months now, but we've all been very busy.

Yarmouth is far too north for many of New England nerfers to travel. I suggest we hold this at the usual place, or maybe even a local place near me.

As far as dates go, I can't really do much in the next two weeks due to my dad recovering from his recent trip to the hospital. I might be able to do something during labor day weekend.

I'll hit up some of the usual's and see what works for them



#311039 Reviving supermaxx 5000 help

Posted by jubjub517 on 11 February 2012 - 12:30 AM in Modifications

My advise: grow some balls and fix the 5k tank, or put a 4B tank in there instead. There's no point for an oversized singled 2k.



#242627 Recon-cs6 Tactical Light

Posted by jubjub517 on 18 July 2009 - 11:40 PM in Modifications

Why not just tape a flashlight to the side of the recon, no need to be a jerk but it sounds a lot easier.


By doing this it makes it removable, While also adaptable to many other guns that have rails. Another thing to consider is neatness/Paint Job.

#247759 Nitefinder + Maverick Integration

Posted by jubjub517 on 20 August 2009 - 12:03 AM in Modifications

I feel this "Mod" is way too impractical. I also feel it doesn't deserve its own Topic, but i won't get into that just yet.

If you rely feel compelled to do a Maverick - NF integration then i would ditch the "clip on shit", and smother that mother fucker with some epoxy. I would also cut out the light and its housing. Something like this blue NF.

Posted Image
This Image was Borrowed from NerfMonkey from his sales thread.

And just epoxy on the barrel (I would first house your PETG with some PVC) and the little stub of the shell. This is all kind of hard to explain in text. If i rely have too i can show you a 5 min diagram of it (Via Paint).

The reason why I rely hate this mod is because your integrating a much larger gun onto a small pistol. The only advantage to this is that you will give your maverick a slightly faster ROF (if that). NF just aren't ment for integrations (Except for a 2k tank or something like that). NFs are pistols and Mavericks are pistols. The only way to integrate two pistols is "Manta Style". But even that is stretching the practicality of our nerf guns (More of the Maverick then the NF).


Quick Question: Are there any other guns that cock with a slide and have decent RoF? The DTB set is too expensive, otherwise I'd have used one of those instead of a Maverick.


One of the great advantages of Nerfhaven, is the fact that you can buy $30/$40 gun for about $8, $10 or even $15.



#247844 Nitefinder + Maverick Integration

Posted by jubjub517 on 20 August 2009 - 04:53 PM in Modifications

@ buying online: No Paypal. Parents don't allow money through mail. No bank account. Don't really have much of a way to buy through NH, unless it's from someone who lives nearby and is willing to come to my house (no car either).


Um, That sucks. The least I can do is direct you to a $5 off and 25 free darts with your next purchase.

@ clip-on shit: The whole point is that I can de-integrate the guns and lend the maverick out to a friend. I don't nerf with holsters, so carrying two pistols generally means only using one at a time, a problem when rushed.


Make some holsters. You would be very surprised by how much they help.

If you still want the clip on shit thats fine. The problem i would find is that shaking the gun would cause it to fall off (Especially held facing the ground).

I may have misunderstood what you meant by "de-integrate the guns and lend the maverick out to a friend". I believe your talking mid-war right?

@humfree: I need a decent amount of range and some RoF, not really at the same time. Problem is I don't have a way to get OMC PETG, and mine is too thick to fit into just about anything, including PVC. This means rebarreling turreted guns won't work, ie the Furyfire.


Well, the Furyfire is basically a 10 shot maverick. Since your wars involve Mavericks as primary, the furyfire is not a bad choice. I doubt that any other nerfers there use OMC PETG. So they probably get about 30ft off of there Mavericks. a Furyfire is very expensive right now. and since you can't shop on eBay, i doubt you will begetting one. Same with the raider. A raider is a rushing gun. It has a incredible ROF. It gets 40ft flat with basic AR removal. Sounds like your kind of gun.

My advise to you is to save $30 for the fall. Pick a gun that you find suitable, and use it. Weather its the Furyfire, Raider or even the classic DTG. If your satisfied that the Dtg is your kind a gun. Then get it now. Also, Don't be afraid to mod your guns. Especially removing the ARs.

The point of me starting a thread on this was because I thought it hadn't been tried before, and I wanted feedback on it. I'd like to think it better than the posts with zero grammar and spelling and standard AR removal mods. Sorry if it offended you.


I like people new to the haven who value grammar and spelling, Unlike past victims of the "Ban Hammer" I'm actually glad now that you started this post. I feel many off haven members will find this discussion "Eye Opening" and useful for there nerfing carer. No offense taken.

#313984 New England War

Posted by jubjub517 on 04 April 2012 - 11:00 PM in Nerf Wars

Yeah, nerfing up here died a few years ago. We had really small monthly wars going for a little while, but that was like 5-10 people. Salem state college also used to hold a few indoor wars every year in the winter, but i haven't heard anything from sky or wes in awhile.

I'd love to see some local wars pop up again and I'd be happy to contribute. I know a few old nerfers that i could hit up on facebook that live nearby. Give me a location and I'll see what i can do.



#314022 New England War

Posted by jubjub517 on 05 April 2012 - 07:52 PM in Nerf Wars

This was where we had most of our wars. Its a pretty good place, but it was too much of a commute for a few people. We tried relocating somewhere an hour south in MA (like Beverly or something), but that just never happened.

I don't know where you guys are exactly and how far your willing to commute, so give me feedback if that's too far for you guys.

You spent a good 30 minutes ranting on about how you desperately want to attend a nerf war, but your old folks won't let you. Have we not given you a clear enough answer on the IRC? Your good! Just don't go around waving your gun in peoples faces.

What about the trains website? I'm sure it must give a lengthy description of their policy. Jesus Christ, Think next time.



#251870 Nerf 1928 Tommy Gun

Posted by jubjub517 on 27 September 2009 - 08:37 PM in Homemades

Pics aren't working.

So all you did was hot glue a Rf20 Blatter Bladder, Not air tank, and a wildfire piston to a inline clip. Tape that onto a amalgam of cardboard and foam core. Then give it a shitty pj. Clean it up and I'll shut up.

#252803 Nerf 1928 Tommy Gun

Posted by jubjub517 on 06 October 2009 - 09:39 PM in Homemades

NerfAlCapone: Listen, Your gun looks like shit. But i think that your inline clip/wildfire piston is a great idea. My suggestion is that to put a coupler on the end of the piston, and create multiple clips for it. This would make for a speedy Rof. I hope you ditch the "Al Capone" shit. No one will take you seriously, and Halloween isn't year round. I want you to actually be a decent modder and not some necro. You surprised me, congrats.

Oh, and wohnson89: Yes, it was sarcasm.
