#128992 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 07 November 2007 - 08:26 PM in Modifications

Dude, just so you know putting a BBB spring inside the LS does get you better ranges but at a price. Your LS will break after awhile. The BBB spring is just to powerful for it.


Yeah it would have been 20 bucks and a useless bbb to put the spring in there
I had also heard stories of peoples breaking with the bbb spring so I decided to forget it

And also...

Blasphemy how do you reinforce the bolt sled if you wanted to?

Yeh thanks I tried making CDTSs and I could not get them as accurate as my stefens. As for the Angel breech, I would have tried that later but there is no brass in my area.

Thanks for the tips though.

:) It works! I wasn't able to go to Target for a bbb and being inpatient as I am looked for a good spring. I found a toilet paper roll spring that fit the longshot plunger tube perfactly and here are the results
Streamlines
79'
74'
80'
77'

My crap stefens
66'
67'
65'
70'

There was also a wind which affected it but I am only useing stefens in this baby because the streamlines are way too inaccurate.

Anyway thank you for all your help, especially you Captain Slug, You have all warmly welcomed me and I greatly appreciate it

#128820 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 06:01 PM in Modifications

Yeah ok I did this and it made the range slightly less but the noise went away . Anyway I will tell you exactly what I did to give you more info
I opened it up and got to the plunger tube
I used the dremel and cut through the part in the back until it was wide enough for me to pull out the ar
the only thing that I didn't do to the plunger tube and bolt was to take out the peg
should I do this or will it affect the range/accuracy in a bad way.

Sorry but I am new and don't know how to set up pics yet

#128807 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 05:15 PM in Modifications

Hey thanks I plugged the hole and the distance has improved but it still makes that annoying noise and it seems like it is just barely better than stock if not equal. Now what did I do?

#128793 Longshot Help

Okay I think that I found the hole that you are talking about but i cannot figure out a way to plug it with tape from the inside.



#128791 Longshot Help

No the dart tooth is definetly still there and when the bolt slides forward it pushed the streamline back into it like it should. And did you mean the hole that you can see if to take out the mag and look with the bolt closed



#128789 Longshot Help

Posted by dadude778 on 06 November 2007 - 12:33 PM in Modifications

Hi I am new to nerfhaven and am having some problems. I decided to buy a longshot about a month ago. After geting annoyed that it couldn't fire stefens I decided that I would try to do carrtoon mod to start. So I took out the ar and added another spring and put it back together. I shot it and it made a super loud noise and the streamlines went half the distance as before. I tried my stefans, CTDs and every other dart that worked in the longshot and they all didn't work .Whats did I do wrong? I checked the seal on the plunger head and must have opened it up 5 or 6 times with no success.

Thanks

Looks amazingly clean and proffesional, looking forward to more of your work


One question

Doestn't it make the front of the longshot very front heavy?

and if so does affect the ROF on the longshot

Because it seems like it would be hard to get a good grip on the bolt

Thanks

#127448 Do You Think We Kind Of Have An Anarchy?

Posted by dadude778 on 25 October 2007 - 09:17 PM in General Nerf

FA_24 is who influenced me to try harder mods and really got me more into Nerf, If Forsaken wasn't here I am sure that you would be sitting at home with an nf thinking "Whats a Plunger"

So I warn you now, never tell anyone at a war your usar name or you will be personally taken out ( If I knew who you were I would keep on shooting even if you were down

This was for you Angel

#127405 New Nerf Blaster From Hasbro

Posted by dadude778 on 25 October 2007 - 07:44 PM in News

Wait, I'm confused, when it is cocked does the plaunger end come out of the back like an nf?

And if so does that mean you could band it like the nf?


Sorry if this question is retarded, I'm new



#127361 New Nerf Blaster From Hasbro

Posted by dadude778 on 25 October 2007 - 05:24 PM in News

It look descent.

Pros.

Clipped pistol.
Takes longshot clips.
Since you can take off the stock and other parts you won't have to take out about a million screws like the longshot.

Cons.
Stock look flimsy
Laser is probably cheap
And how you have to cock it


I just know that I will get one
