I some how doubt that its totally a coincidence. Same thing with the mav, its also got a 4" cylinder.Oh, and there's no need for longer barrels than what can fit in it. The barrels that could fit would be about 4 inches of 17/32 brass, and with the same size plunger as a NF, approximately the same barrel length is needed. This happens to be practically the same barrel length.
i think the nerf peeps may have tried to throw a bone our way.
But thats just my opinion.

Site Feedback
Perhaps to get back on topic if I may,
I voted that the Code was just fine.
As for using AIM speak, I see no problem using it, especially if you use Instant messengers constantly and excesively. But not just for those reasons. I see no problem in using truncated language because it is what has evolved in communication over the 'Net'. Every mode of communication comes with its own parameters and its own identity, independent of what we intended for it.
But in this specific case for Nerf Haven, since the volume of members and the relatively immature structure of truncated 'net' language, using conventional modern english is probabbly the only way to get rid of all ambiguity.
The code is fine.
thats my load of bull.

"How often does the design team get to design a new, unprecedented blaster?"
"Do they have specific orders from the Big cheeses to give previous models only a shell revamp ?"
my second question stems from those suspicions that those shameless remakes (AT/SM series) are to save productions costs.
On a side note, I hope for some rereleases of the airjet plus series.

The majority of gang crime? i don't even know where to start.*start rant*
It's people like you that makes listening to Alt Rock seem disgraceful. I suppose you also own a skateboard (but can't do shit) and also shop at Hot Topic? I hate the people who are stereotypical about their music, that they have to live their life arround it. Not to mention rap...But I will. Think about it. The majority of gang crime in the U.S. in the last few years is the pushing of the "ghetto" life-style that Rap puts on people.
Unless you're a Criminology major or criminology is your hobby, you dont know what your talking about.
and as a Crim major, I can tell you, you don't know what you're talking about. Shut the hell up.
As for hot topic, what the fuck else is the store for? For all those DYI freaks (which i happen to be one) I hope you do realize that its becoming popular. O no, what shall we do? people besides me think its cool! Grow up, and get over it. If its Cool and hip and popular, so what?
back on topic,
As it happens my bands are blink 182 and good charlotte. I dont listen to them much any more, but they will always hold a special place for me. I've made my peace with them for selling out.

you guys can claim what ever you want about bands talents, or lack of it. but you cannot deny that bands like nirvana and linkin park and what not have played the scene and did it well enough to leave a permanent mark.
i never was too intrested in nirvana and I have never been to a linkin park concert, but i think those bands did a hell of a job immortalizing themselves in thier respective periods. in general the greatness of a band also acounts for thier successfulness in the business, not just that they were good musicians.
on a side note, it is because of kurt that shredding died. so for those of you who miss those penis waving guitar solos, thank kurt

ash,
if it turns out that linkin park is short lived, so what ....
that really dosent matter. what matters is that linkin park got credit for blending generes. of course they didn't invent it, but they are the ones getting credit for it.
this kinda thing has happend before
you think 2 albums and shitty music makes a difference to whether you get your name in the books ?
how about a little band called Flock of Seagulls
or even worse, how about Devo
as for shredding,
take a look at what happend to it after nirvana. of course it diddnt die, but it sure isnt thriving.
my scope of music isnt limmited, but i am however limiting it to the relm of pop. since that really is the only thing that gets remembered about a time period. that and whats just under the surface.
the only shredding ive heard thats broken mainstream, is brownsound from sum41.
you could argue that kerry king and zack wylde are somewhat mainstream. in that case, i would agree. but they are still a ways from bieng household names.
dont think at all that i oppose shredding, but i just think its sad that some people spend half of thier life learning how, and now in the year 2004 the only people that
will listen is at the local guitar center.
(speaking of... where the fuck was i when gibson sued PRS ? why the hell am i learning about this just now???)

i dont understand why you cant just put 3 or 4 pumps into the titan ? quicker prime time and safer velocity. why do we have to mess with it so its max potential is lowered. just use it at half the pumps, at half its potential during game play.
second thought... i forgot the purpose of this post, I would say put air restrictors at the breech.

im pretty sure the IX-6 is a remake of the SM1000. I modded one and, hacked off the long barrel. it looks almost like the IX-6. I for one wont be looking forward to it. On the SM1000 you cant have barrels protruding out any longer then the origional chambers because of the shell, and the revolving mech. and with the air output of the SM1k and the short barrels, that gun has not accuracy what so ever,
but I might be wrong since it looks like the the IX-6 will have a smaller output.
I also agree with Thirst and Cx, if the PC was gonna be rereleassed with the N-strike line, why not the Rerelease of the AT2K twin pack ? we definately know that twin pack dosent go with the N-strike.

Some people swear by 3 1\4" to 4" blades as a nessesity.
I personally have never gotten into a situation where I needed a blade over 2 inches.
But with the exception of the Spydie Native, every 2 inch blade comes with an equally stubby handle.

In 1939 a man named joseph gerber started 'Gerber legendary blades'. I dont think the baby food manufacturers have any relation.
Its a shame really. gerber used to make such great tools. now they are owned by Friskars, and are now one of those second rate companies that rips thier knife designs off of other top shelf manufacturers.
assisted openers can still be considered switchblades. the only places that they are not, are jusisdictions which define a switchblade as a knife in which the blade is opened without touching the blade itself. This cleverly worded definition also happens to include gravity knives.
Bolt: spyderco is a great company with great customer service. You shouldn't have told them that 'if you put enough backward force'. that falls under "spine-whacking" and is a deal breaker. you should have just complained about 'blade-play' and potential 'lock-failure'. But at least you have your 943! axis locks rock balls off of everything!

Well i feel you, but ive had no problems with spyderco, sent in my native a year ago to get the pivot tightened and ive just sent in my delica that ive had since i was 12, to get the vertical blade play fixed.
Customer service are people too. They might have just been lazy that day and wrote you off as someone who abused his knife. Mabey they thought that, because you had the police model, i dont know. I would try sending it in again, just for the hell of it.
Heres what cycles through my EDC:
I had some benchmades but i sold them off. For some reason I would avoid using my knife if i carried an expensive one. Go figure. But i dont carry crap. You would be suprised at the quality you can find out there on the cheap.
The two on top are craftsman work knives designed by Ken Onion, and made by kershaw. Blades are AUS-6. These have the most solid lock ups out of teh bunch
the one in the middle is a Camillus EDC in 154-CM
Brand spankin new spyderco Native from Wally-world in S30V
And various small folders I carry when carrying knives any bigger will get me funny looks. Only ones worth mentioining are the spyderco ladybugII in vg-10, the kershaw chive, and the gerber ridge, which for some reason is in AUS-8
And to follow suit, i'll post my crappy mall-ninja collection
The only one i feel bad puttin in this category is the little Hide-Away-Knife. Custom fitted, and it cost me a pretty penny. Useful as hell, fixed blade stability in the smallest package avalible, but gets me looked at like im a psycho.
Edit: in case anybody dosent know my mall-ninja reference, is in no way relating to bolts katanas. they are beauties.

i really dont know why u would need a bipod for a nerf gun they are not that hard to stabilize with your arms, hands, and what ever you do with your body to brace it.
nerf guns weigh like what? a pound? the range is what ? 200 ft ?
if you cant stabilize a shot like that, you need to work out more.

i dont know if you would actually call it a lemon situation but, 2 of the 3 Titans i own are broken in the same way. (trigger pin pulled away from the breech valve) Might be more of a design flaw.
and as for ranges, I also always get lower distances than those outrageous ones.
The only ranges that i have acheived that were comparable to the ones reported here were the NF, AT2K, and the Titan

I'd give it a 6/10.
In my opinion, the placement of the diagonal lines takes away from the interesting group of 3-d images you have below them. It's kind of cutting the image in half. I'd like to see more of the 3-d stuff, and less of the stripes above the diagonals. Simply put, I think if you move the diagonals up towards the top left corner some more to show off some of the 3-d stuff, it might be a little more interesting. Just my two cents.
You're probably right.
But I do think there is something to be said about the 50/50 thing. its a very "static vs. dynamic" statement.
and not only that but the motif also continues with the circular dealies in the middle.
substance abuse: if you had known what argument you were making in these, i would have given it a 7
but unless thats the case, i also give it a 6
very good attempt
but dont expect or get used to people saying that.
...also, don't just quit on this. keep working on this image.

I seriously like the Hornet from the N-Strike Trinity (it dosent say on the box but the inventory list at Target calls it the "trinity"). The Big Salvo is also pretty good, only problem is that its hard to use. You really have to train you trigger finger for that thing.

dont kid yourself.Okay one more thing I paid next to nothing for this car(1,200), it has had only one owner (who was a lady) it was never in a wreck, it was kept in awsome shape, oil was changed every 3,000 miles, this thing is almost mint.
Plus in 16 years, some one had to have forgotten mabey 2 or 8 oil changes.
Given those are small things, but god knows what else.
In this disposable society, there arent too many things now a days that are ment to live that long.
But anyways, its your first car and 12 bills isnt bad at all for something thats probabbly gonna be totaled before you even get a chance to drive it off to college.
I wouldn't mod it but thats me. Just be thankful you got something sporty and not some old sedan with a broken headlight and all sorts of sun-damage to the paint.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to watch that rod.
But did you actually expect Nerf to come out with a flawless product? It should be expected. Their main business is to cut costs and make profits. not making perfect weapons to be used by teens and young adults who push the limits of the structural integrity of plastic (although we are greatfully thankful they do consider us a small portion of their demographic)
Sorry now back to the topic :
instead of using rod and epoxy, I wonder if there is a long, thin machine screw out there that could take the place of that. It would be cheaper and less hassle to install. That is unless you can find a place that will let you buy 2 inches of stainless steel rod

im a pround lefty, but when it somes to playing with blasters and arcades, i shoot with guns in both hands. since is was a kid i loved John Woo movies, even though i only understood half of the dialouge. i also used to play the arcade game Area 51 when it was hot. played it so much i naturally got bored and started playing both guns.

dont know where your located, but if you were in the LA area i could give you some good resources on some used JDM engines and transmissions.
but if you just bought a car with already 187k on it, im guessin your not in the LA area (it would already be in the wreckin yard by then).
if anybody in the LA area needs an japanese engine or tranny, give this place a try:JPQ corp

everything was in mandarin.
Since it understood what they were saying, it was amusing to me how they butchered it up ( totally understandable though).
I think the reason for the chinese and cowboys was josh whedon's guess at what the circumstances in the future would be. What with a culture of 3 billion people may have a small impact in things to come.
And the cowboy thing... Universal expantion, would not be too much unlike westward expantion.
Wash could be Lando !

triangular screws really would suck.
but if that did happen, i dont think it would be too hard to machine a triangular bit somehow. That is if they dont already make bits like that.
