A rainbow pump from Ryan is one of the best investments you'll ever make (Nerf wise). You're never need a new primary.

The box should say something along the lines of "Blasts missiles 30' " if it's a lever trigger. Also my lever trigger BBBB box said 2005 on it.

I might be able to do something similar to this, and most likely better.
Now I need to find a Longshot.
If you want to hook me up with one of them when you're done you can have one of my Longshots.

They are pretty notorious for leaking, typically out of the front of the tank. They are back pressure tanks. All the internals are connected together so you can't exactly replace individual parts, so, if you tank leaks and you cant fix it your screwed.-major reliability issues
I've sold my last 3 stock for between $40 and $30. Not sure if that's really the going rate, but it's what I felt like they should be worth.-what one would cost stock and modded today
They are easy to mod, you should check out some of the guides in the Modifications Directory. The handle isn't exactly comfortable, but isn't uncomfortable either; it falls into the comfort category of the plusbow for me. They are as easy to use as any other singled air gun; However getting the tanks to fire at different times takes some getting used to.-likes/dislikes about them in general (handle being comfy, usability, ease of modding, etc.)

Additionally there is schedule 80 PVC, which is hard to find in some hardware stores., and honestly impractical.
How is Sch. 80 PVC impractical? It is a close enough fit to PETG, eliminates the need to nest your barrel material, and is sold in Menards, Ace, (some)Home Depots, and Lowes.

How awkward is it to prime a blaster like that when it has large spring loads? I was thinking of doing something like this but determined that the force would be awkwardly distributed and would cause priming to become too uncomfortable for practical war use. Have you noticed any discomfort while priming this repeatedly like you would in a war situation?

The CL Laurence foam I bought in the past was closer to 5/8, which depending on your barrel wouldn't be to good.

Follow Ryan201821's overhaul guide. 12" PETG barrels work really well, 10" would also work fine. There's no need for a PSI gauge just keep the number of pumps below 5-6, or install an over pressure relief valve if you are worried about blowing up your tank.

How much is a +bow usually worth?
I'm sorry of this is in the wrong forum but I just didn't want to clutter the trading forum or anything.
I have seen them go for anywhere between $110 and $150.

Your explenation of a OPRV is not correct; I believe you are trying to explain the dump valve. The OPRV is what stops the tank from building up to much pressure so your tank doesn't blow up.

The orange foam doesn't work good for darts, it's too rubbery and has too much friction.

Take the water gun spring out and put in the stock one, it's stopping you from reaching the catch notch.

I made one of Ryan's new extension spring blasters using one of the first Purple handles created. It has work reliably for nearly 300 shots, and it is much easier to install than a regular rainbow catch.

Change the color of the light? I'm pretty sure you can't unless you open the light and change the bulb, beside for that im pretty sure you can't.

Carbon has been pretty busy lately so I'm taking over the Directory for him. Please don't post in the thread. Here's the original directory thread by Carbon for posterity.
The Nerfhaven Homemade Directory is the repository of past completed projects of the Haven. Use it as a resource to see whats been accomplished before, to find new (or old) techniques, or to get inspiration for your next project. PM me if your homemade isn't in the directory or if certain links aren't working. PM Aeromech if your writeup doesn't appear here within a week of posting.
This post will be updated as new projects are added to the forum.
Helpful Threads for Building Homemade Blasters
