#265375 Reverse Plunger Dead Space Killing Method

Posted by Roschili on 14 February 2010 - 04:38 PM in Modifications

That looks really good, I am going to try this on my Recon. Could you post a picture from the other side of the plunger so I can see how far in the foam goes, or could you tell me about how long you think the foam should be for a recon. Thanks!

Ok, I have yet another question about my recon. For painting it what is the best way to do that if I want to paint the whole thing, can I just spray paint it as is, or do I need to take it apart and remove the internals? Thanks to whoever has an answer.

Are you sure plumbers goop will work better than model glue or super glue? I was thinking about model gluing it back on then putting tape on the outside to ensure that it says in tact.

Thanks. Yes, I think Krylon Fusion works very well, I used two coats and it looked really good and I have not had any problems with it wearing off. Krylon Fusion also works really well on PVC parts, my brother made a PVC t-shirt cannon and painted it with Krylon Fusion and the paint looks brand new. Do i need to take the barrel apart to paint it?

$50 in aus? 20 in usa.

The Wal-Mart where I live sells them for $14.99.

Thanks King that worked, I now feel stupid because I couldn't fix it by myself... thank you though.

Zap a gap glue will fix anything, or you could fill in the void with hot glue or epoxy putty.

so are you saying to hot glue the piece back on
-or-
to fill the end of the tube with putty?

#226402 Need Help Fixing My Recon

Posted by Roschili on 26 April 2009 - 09:28 PM in Modifications

My Recon is the only gun that I have never taken the internals out of, is it hard to put them back in? Also, when I paint I painted my Nite Finder I did not use primer I just used Krylon Fusion paint which is really good for plastic. I have not had any trouble with the paint coming off and it looks very nice.

Is there anyway to make a recon shoot all types of darts without doing a barrel replacement?

Is the barrel hard to take apart or put back together? Thanks.

#225890 Need Help Fixing My Recon

Posted by Roschili on 25 April 2009 - 07:25 PM in Modifications

I got a new piece from diamond and I fixed my gun so it shoots now, but I have run into another problem. When I load the clip and stick it in the gun I can cock it once and shoot it but after that the gun will not cock again. Also when I put the clip in it will not come out unless I take the gun apart and pull the clip off. Has anyone else had this problem or does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

And one other thing not relating to my recon, is the nerf eliminator IX-1 the same or better than a nerf attack unit?

I've heard that by simply removing the barrel tooth may let you do this, however I haven't tried it so I can't say for certain.

If I did that would the gun still work? Also I assume that is the long piece on the top of the plunger that juts out?

#232601 Need Help Fixing My Recon

Posted by Roschili on 26 May 2009 - 09:52 AM in Modifications

The dart tooth is the piece that sticks up through the barrel when the bolt is anything other than fully forward. Look down the barrel and pull the slide back slightly - remove that bit.

Oh Ok, how do I get that piece out?

#232603 Need Help Fixing My Recon

Posted by Roschili on 26 May 2009 - 10:03 AM in Modifications

If you open up your gun, just underneath the barrel there is a plastic column with a spring on the end. Thats the bit you want out. To do that you'll need to unscrew the piece holding it in, just to the left, and unscrew and remove the barrel. Then it will simply slide out.
Remember that I'm not guaranteeing this will work!

It is still worth a try

Hey, I recently modded my Nerf Recon CS-6 and it worked well for awhile then part of it broke on the slider. The orange end piece popped off and the gun will not shoot without it. I tried super gluing the piece back on and model gluing it. Both only worked for about 10 shots before it popped off again. Refer to the pictures below to see what piece I am talking about if you are confused, I am not sure what its called so I named it the slider :rolleyes:

If you have any suggestions about how I could fix it, that would be great. If you know of something I can use to replace the piece that works too. Thanks for reading!

The little orange circle piece in the first picture is the piece that popped off of the end that needs to be put back on in order for the gun to operate.

Thanks for looking.

Those are both mine, I know they look similar to what other people have done.
The NF shoots about 80' and the Recon is stock minus the air restrictor.

#229204 Mod Questions About Eliminator

Posted by Roschili on 09 May 2009 - 02:06 PM in Modifications

You can try using a blowdryer to heat up the pieces and loosen the bond of the glue.

As for your second question, remove the original catch spring and replace it with a spring from a pen that is a bit longer. Then hot glue the spring on so it is harder to compress.

I tried using a blow dryer on the hottest setting and it did not help so next I will try boiling water when I get the chance. Edit, I also tried running a dremel along the seams where it was glued but I did not go deep and it didn't help any.

Thanks, where would I put the hot glue at? Just glue the end of it to the wall it compresses against?

I tried putting the eliminator in boiling water and that did not help at all. I am going to continue prying on it in hopes of getting it apart.

Cut off the gray part with a hacksaw.

If I do that will the gun go back together?

#228629 Mod Questions About Eliminator

Posted by Roschili on 06 May 2009 - 06:29 PM in Modifications

I tried doing what soccerbeast said but I could not pull it out no matter how far I pried it up and pulled. The back of the handle also appears to be glued together or something. I was able to pry the gun far enough apart to take the plunger out so hopefully I can mod it then but it back in with having to dismantle the gun. If anyone else has suggestions on how to get the gun apart they would be appreciated.

Edit: I got the plunger out and knocked out the air restrictor and barrel post thing then put it back in the gun the best I could while prying the gun open with a screw driver. I don't think it shoots as far now and it doesn't work quite the same either. I still need to find a way to get the two pieces apart. Suggestions are appreciated, thanks to those who made suggestions.

I don't want to have to e-tape my gun together because then it will be a tacky mess.

Still need suggestions for taking apart a nerf eliminator.

QUOTE(Daniel Beaver @ May 6 2009, 04:17 PM) *
Dip the handle in boiling water for a few minutes. This may loosen up the glue holding together so that you can pry it off without otherwise damaging it.

Do this. It works.

Have you done it before?
I will probably try it, how long should I keep it in water?

Put the hot glue inside the spring, and while it is still warm put it back on the peg where it originally was.

Will the spring still compress like that?

Ok cool, can you then put the shell back into the oval thing to re-assemble the gun?

#228608 Mod Questions About Eliminator

Posted by Roschili on 06 May 2009 - 05:30 PM in Modifications

Ok today I got my 4-pack of eliminators in the mail and I immediately wanted to mod them to shoot my stefans but I ran into trouble taking the gun apart. I cannot get the gun apart after I took the screws out. I took all the screws out and it did not just pop apart like other guns. I tried wedging it apart with screwdrivers but I did not apply a lot of force because I did not want to break it. Here are some pictures of what it looks like. It seems to be stuck around the handle where there is like an oval shaped piece on the bottom that the extendable grip/dart holder is. I am unsure how to get the shell apart, any advice?

Ok now for my other question. I have a Buzz Bee RFR and I heard it was a good idea to reinforce the catch, can someone tell me how to do this?

Thanks everyone!

#228615 Mod Questions About Eliminator

Posted by Roschili on 06 May 2009 - 05:40 PM in Modifications

Actually, I found that pulling it at a 30 degree angle away from the oval looking thing gets it right out.

Could you explain this a little better? I am confused somewhat.

Thanks daniel, I will try this soon and hopefully it will work. If that loosens the glue and I can just pull the gun apart will I then be able to snap the gun together again.

Cut off the ring between the slide-out handle and the main gun shell.

Is that the only way to take the gun apart? Will the gun be able to go back together cleanly? Finally, what should I used to cut it off?

Thanks 1337.

Ok, I am still having troubles taking the gun apart and modding it. I would still like other suggestions on how to disassemble the gun. If you have done this before please post how you did it.

#263310 Magstrike Reassembly

Posted by Roschili on 26 January 2010 - 06:24 PM in Modifications

Today I took my Magstrike apart to try to fix an air leak that it had. I think I fixed the leak but now I cannot get the gun back together because I cannot get the bladder in place. I do not want to force the bladder in because I do not want to break it. Below are some pictures of what I am trying to do. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong or if I am just supposed to force the white piece shown in the second picture down over the end of the bladder? Also, is the bladder just put on too far? Thanks.

I have one more question, what does everyone else use to fix air leaks?
Thanks again.

#263360 Magstrike Reassembly

Posted by Roschili on 26 January 2010 - 10:17 PM in Modifications

The bladder is pain to get screwed back down to the case. Have a person push the white piece to the screw wells while you screw it down. Everything looks like it's in the right place, it just requires some force to get back together.
And I used Plumbers Goop on my leaky Magstrike.

Awesome thank you very much!

#263943 Magstrike Reassembly

Posted by Roschili on 31 January 2010 - 05:09 PM in Modifications

Sorry for the double post, but I got it back together the way Retiate said, thanks again. Now I am having trouble with it leaking very badly. The bladder is not expanding at all. None of the air is making it that far, but I cannot find a leak in the hose or anything. I hear the air coming out but see no problems, obviously there is one though. I took it apart and tried putting it back together and that did not help, I made sure the black bladder was all the way on but that did not make a difference. Any suggestions?

Ok, I got the gun open did the mods I wanted but now after reassembling I have three pieces left and I cannot tell where they go from pictures on threads, this is what I have and what my gun internals look like.

Thanks for looking.

#232556 Longshot Dismantle

Posted by Roschili on 25 May 2009 - 09:42 PM in Modifications

Next time, find it best to use the Internals Directory.

The specific item for you now, is the Longshot Internals Diagram.
Note how it lists each item.

Next time, read my post before posting.
I clearly said in an earlier post that the pictures on the threads did not help me. With that being said sending me a link to the picture I have already looked at will not help me in any way.

Thanks for posting anyway.

I was trying to take apart my longshot and cannot get the knobs off the sides that are used to cock the gun. Can someone explain how to get them off. I tried turning them and prying on them and neither worked. Thanks.
