#248519 Why Brass And Not Copper?
Posted by

General Nerf
Copper sucks. You could use it for Mega's and it was god awful. I don't think the inside is smooth enough because the dart didn't even come out of the barrel anytime I tried it.
Usually copper has a "mold" line down the length of it, so air will leak or darts will get stuck, brass doesn't.

I have the same problems here in europe AJ, only PVC over here is way to loose for streamlines or CDTDarts, or are very thick walled = way to heavy for use in homemades.
Same problems with brass-tubing......
I think the PETG they sell in pet stores, is used to cover tubelights in aquariums...
I cannot think of another reason to sell clear rigid tubing.

Did you drill it out or just removed the restrictor?
When the vulcan primes/ is primed the plungertube comes foreward and seals against the chainlink, in that piece of plungertube is a grey O-ring for optimal seal....
If the barrel does not come foreward or doesn't stay foreward there is something wrong with the internals....
In the case of the plungertube not staying in the "sealed" position when primed, the plungertube has been replaced wrong, on the plungertube there is a little square(?) nub wich must be faced towards the shell, because another orange (the color could be different) nub needs to "catch" and hold it until the dart is fired.

You should have payed more attention on the mechanical details (like, reading articles on this site about plunger heads, rods and o-rings), before asking for help on this forum.
Some people gave very good advise, but then you keep japping about that the gun is fine, wich is clearly not, or else you wouldn't be asking for help would you?
So you should do this:
-Add good fitting o-rings to the plungerhead.
-Straighten out your plunger tube (scrapping this one and build one from whatever material is best, search the site!!)
-Lube the thing with a good lube. (again search the site)
-Add the [k26] spring
If THEN your gun won't work properly, take pictures of the whole contraption, inside out completly taken apart, and ask again.
I tell you this because I read more topics like: "Help me my gun sucks, but it's working properly and I ain't doing anything wrong"
lately and I think it's really annoying.
Also I am a lazy bastard, because I won't search the 'Haven for the articles you should have read, you should go through that trouble not me,
Good luck and greetings,

Use a large screw-on bushing on the titan, then have adapters for each barrel.
ex: 3" bushing with 3"-1/2" for the micro and megamissle, 3"-1" for mongo, 3"-3" for scatter
Thats what I did initialy with my Titan:
A shot of the barrel:
Here is a picure with the barrel and an adapter piece in it:
A picure of the missile barrel and an un-used adapter:

Maybe you should try to replace the plungertubes and plungers with bigger ones (NF,LS?) and lengthen the barrels appropriatly(?)
But again, what brand is the gun from?

So your saying you pull the trigger it shoots, ejects the shell, then reloads from a clip. How fast is this process? How much did this cost? Also, what kind of ranges does that thing get at certain levels of psi?
Errr.... You only watch pictures dont you? or did you completly miss the bottom sentence in the first post?
Either way, PVC Arsenal 17, what function is the cylinder thing on the side of the gun?
And nice work on machening the handle, but it looks a little to "straight"

#295172 Stampede Broke.....

So last sunday my stampede broke, after a few weird and fast back and forth slams, it made a whizzing sound when I pulled the trigger........oh-o....we thought it was the common catch spring jam...... after opening we saw it wasn't that.....It was the gear-box....oh my...
Today after work I opened up the stampede and went on dismantling the gearbox, it is actually a "box" with the motor screwed on one end and just the half-gear sticking out on the other:
Inside the box are some gear-combinations, offcourse allot of down gearing, for more torque less rpm, but 1 combination wassent molded in 1 piece....
It is some kind of motor protection I think.... It doesn't show that well on the picture, but the hole in the large gear and the nub on the small one are supposed to be square but they are worn to a roundish state
When I pulled the trigger, the motor (running 12v 2600mah) forced the 2 gears appart (the "box" isn't made out of the same thickness of plastic as the rest of the shell) so the could slip....
So after I let a BIG sigh of relief I glued the 2 parts together and thats the fix!! Tommorow Test-day(I hope this is the correct place to post this....)

Also foam backer rod is (almost) never used here.... and if so it's the open cell kind.... Some well stocked DIY stores (praxis) sometimes carry small packages of it....

While we're on the topic of the safety of pop bottles, I have a question.
Does anyone know if using something like fiberglass+epoxy to reinforce a 2 liter one will make it significantly safer to operate at higher pressures (ie will hold its own at higher pressures)? Would it be impractical to assume that covering all surface area on the bottle with fiberglass is possible?
And for making a safer explosion, what about using denim and duck tape? I know that doesn't work for PVC shrapnel, but this plastic is significantly lighter and thinner.
Something hard like epoxy will actually make it more dangerous.
Duck/t tape wrapped tightly will actually make it more dangerous.
What you want to be looking for is to contain the explosion, not to stop it. I have done exactly that with denim and duct tape but NOT TIGHT. Layers, with some room to expand. Then zip it all into a backpack for more convenience and an additional layer.
Indeed, a backpack will be sufficient enough to contain an explosive decompression I think.......
An advantage of using soda bottles is that you can use another (smaller) bottle when you blew up your old one!!

If you do not have extensive amounts of electronics experience, do not attempt to add a flash to your crossfire. The capacitors in a camera, disposable or not, supposedly can build up enough voltage to kill you.

@SRSJ, It is really that easy, I did a commision for some one, I cut off the handle, a LS front gun handle slots in easily, connect a piece of copper wire or clothes hanger and voila, I even managed to get the RSCB inside the shell by moving the airtank back and down, cutting out the filler cap so the rscb could be loaded from there and keep the comfy shoulder stock, only downside is that the tank nor pump hava a OPRV, so over pumping ended up using pliers to pull the wire for releasing the air...................Also did a large amount of dremeling out the insides and pump handle, even parts of the watertank to accomodate the rscb.............

If you want to mod a recon like that, it would more look like a watergun,(well that is kinda rediculous as you wish)
But I believe there is no-one who tried to make such a complicated bladder design,
If I were you, (and maybe I will try this mod if I get my hands on 1), I would try a larger plunger tube/ plunger assembly, (maybe a (enlarged, or home-made version of)LS plungertube, with some extra springs), but then again, you would be better off buying an LS............................
Or you could try to find tube material that fits the plunger head and o ring from the recon, and tubing that could replace the barrel end of the plunger assembly, and enlarge the whole rig,length wise, I might try this.......
What the fuck has a AK47 to do with a bladder designed gun??
