#169318 Longshot's Shotgun And Recon's Barrel Extension

Because you touch yourself at night.
But seriously, it's because they are not "proper" barrels. The stock barrels do not fit the darts, they are much too large. You are correct that longer barrels can add to accuracy, but that's only the case if they fit the darts. The faux barrel extensions just cause the dart to bounce around inside on their way out, and lower accuracy.

Thanks for the comments.
Forsaken, I was debating that too, but so far I don't see any weakness. The body doesn't flex or separate there, so I think it would be safe to cut.
I regret not taking pics the moment I finished. The appearances have definitely degraded. I might just take the decorative stuff off and have a black lancer.
I forgot to mention also, it's modded with the spring from a pump shot gun.

So I actually created my lancer back in october for a halloween project. My floormates and I are big into gears, and I thought they would get a kick out of it. I made the gun in two days, and only with materials I had at hand (minus they toy chainsaw, I bought at walmart). My lancer is far less refined than Forsaken angel's, but I made it to look cool and still use in nerf wars. It looked better when I first made it, but I think it has held up well after seeing some action. Anyways, pics:
I regret not posting it sooner. Seeing what forsaken angel did, I felt compelled to post my ghetto-er version. The chainsaw is velcroed on so that I can remove it during games. I think it is a good balance of replication and functionality. Comment away.

Yes, I think the main coat was all drybrushed.
Drybrushing is used on the raised bits, but if you do the same technique to a flat area, you leave a thin coat of paint. It gives it that blurred or soft look that the gun you posted has, and allows you to mix the tones as you add more layers.
I use a big flat brush with soft bristles for drybrushing. There's no trick to drybrushing a flat part. You might want less paint of the brush than if you were doing corners, but you just keep brushing it until it starts picking up color.

gmoff - I got your PM. You don't have an email address listed on your profile, otherwise I would have emailed you the video.
Anyways, my video won't really help you achieve a look like that gun. As Aj pointed out, that gun is mostly drybrushed and my guns have a different style. I do briefly demonstrate how I use inks, so if you still want it I can email you.
The basic process for a gun like that, or at least how I would do it would be like this:
Black basecoat
Drybrush colors from dark to light
Blending ink (so in this case a red ink was used to blend everything)
Ink for grime effect (something black, brown, chestnut, maybe more than one)
Drybrush edges with light color
Seal
That's more or less how I do any of my guns, I just do a textured stippling technique instead of drybrush the whole thing.

Very cool dude.
I really like your paintjobs because they combine excellent detailing while still remaining within a "nerf -y" color pallet. I think that you've found a good medium where you have guns that a person can take seriously, while still looking like nerf guns.
Props to you sir.

I actually just got an order from McMaster Carr today. The order arrived without any confirmation of shipment or what shipping cost was. Hell, they didn't even say how they were shipping my stuff.
Anyways, McMaster Carr uses UPS, so you can at least try to calculate shipping yourself.
The worst thing that could happen is that they ship your order, and you have to refuse to take it from the UPS guy. Then it just gets shipped back, and hopefully that's the end of everything.

I cpvc'd mine. It gets 65' flat. You just saw off the stupid pole thing that the dart goes on, then sand that down, drill a bigger hole thats a little smaller than the cpvc, and then plumbers goop the cpvc barrel on. After that I added some hotglue for support where the barrel goes through the black peice.

Unfortunately, I took down the pics...
Its a nice gun. Whoever said that it has the same barrel as the SM5k, thats what I thought, it doesn't really though.
Damn, thats a nice price on bass pro shops, buy one people...and forever shall you refer to it as the serpent-cannon! Or don't...

#168575 Sm500 Questions

The Sm500 is a great gun. Having owned 2, I can say that they were some of the best air pistols. They got 2k performance, and were more comfortable to hold.
Modding them is easy. One thing to be sure of is NOT to plug the pump. I guess the valve is prone to being blown. It was the consensus on the NIC that the pump was not to be plugged. It gets the range of a singled, pump plugged 2k without plugging anyways.

You pretty much answered your own question. If they're unusable then the value can only increase by making them usable.
An ultimator missile isn't some kind of antique. Glue some craft foam fins on it, you won't ruin the patina.

Okay, I have been doing my research on the blastfire. I know that the pump is finicky, so I have some questions.
Let me lay it out;
I have the old edition,
I want to integrate several guns.
Here's what I am wondering;
Ideally, I'd plug the pump. Should I? I want to fully pressurize the integrated guns without making the blastfire's trigger pull ridiculously hard.
Should I opt for an additional at2k pump below the bf's for the integrations? If so, should I still plug the bf's pump?
I'm just concerned about fucking up my bf, and having to settle for a hornet.
