#50512 Nested Brass Mods

Posted by Arcanum on 25 March 2005 - 03:22 PM in Modifications

I forgot to say, its a breech barrel. You could probably tell from reading the write up, but anyway, the pictures are sweet so as soon as i can get em up, you'll see how mine differs (not that much from falcons).

I also got those ranges without plugging the pump, because on my other one i broke the air tank. I would say this gun is just downright powerful.

Alright, thanks Talio, but since i already had a single barreled 1500 i decided to re work it. I'll see if i can't get pics up. Its crayola/pvc barreled.



#50494 Nested Brass Mods

Posted by Arcanum on 25 March 2005 - 11:23 AM in Modifications

Well I have been recently thinking about my guns, and my future use of stefans. I have seen the ranges on a nested brass gun and they look really good. My dream mod would be to have a 17/32" brass stub attached to the air tank with coupler around it, then have 9/16" nested in the pvc, so it would not only nest the brass but pvc as well for extra hold. I was just wondering if you guys had any input on which gun I should be modding. Also, how is it that a sm1500 has never been brassed?

Edit: I don't have the materials to brass right now and I got bored.
Anways, here is the Mod write up for a sm1500 i just did.

First, completely remove the turret after opening up the gun, you won't be needing it (Note: Only do this mod if you are willing to give up a nice turret gun or if you already have one)

Next, directly attach a cleaned out crayola barrel to the air tank.

Now slip on about 2 1/2" of schd. 40 pvc over the crayola and put some 1/2" coupler on it. Your crayola barrel should stick out about 1/2" from the coupler.

Load your dart, stefan or stock, into the crayola barrel.

Now just slap on a 5-6" barrel on the other end of the coupler. The crayola should fit in nicely. I just went outside and range tested, here are the results:

Stock Whistler Micro - 75' flat
loser Micro (stock body, stefan tip) - 90' flat
Unfortunately, I couldn't test my stefans because it just started snowing, I'm goin on spring break too, so I'll get back to you on the stefan range.
My estimate would be around 85-90 feet. This gun is sweet, even though the rof is crap compared to a quad barreled, its hella fun to shoot. A good primary.
Please Note: the coupler comes after the pvc because now it can shoot without the 5-6" barrel, very shotgun like. Then, when wanted, the barrel can be slapped on.

thanks J_cobbers, I simply sawed off the end cap thing so now it fires both rockets and darts, while my friend knew i had trouble gettin mine open so he tried to dreme...apparently it took like 20 minutes, this took about 30 seconds.

#49926 Problem With 1/2inch Pvc

Posted by Arcanum on 17 March 2005 - 10:30 PM in Modifications

sorry for the beastly amount of questions...my lbb doesn't seem to have that great of an air output when i fire the gun. Nothing like an at2k/sm1500 but im told they get awesome range. Will the air pressure increase from pvc or is mine just defective?



#49632 Problem With 1/2inch Pvc

Posted by Arcanum on 14 March 2005 - 09:40 PM in Modifications

One other question...will nested brass fire stock darts? If so, what kind will they shoot, only sonic darts, yellow stock, or airjet or all types? I know stefans will work but sometimes we don't use stefans for indoor wars



#49628 Problem With 1/2inch Pvc

Posted by Arcanum on 14 March 2005 - 09:01 PM in Modifications

I didn't know where else to ask this, so I'm gonna ask it here. I'm thinking about modding my blast bazooka. I wish to try a nested brass barrel, this would be my first attempt at a mod like this, so i was thinking...I'm gonna put a small stub of 17/32 brass with coupler around it at the original barrel stub, then nest some 9/16 brass in 1/2" pvc. Do I want schd. 40 or schd. 80 for nested 9/16" because right now all i have is schd. 40...

#48842 Dart Wars

Posted by Arcanum on 05 March 2005 - 11:30 PM in General Nerf

I recently posted this on NerfHQ. This is really interesting. It's an article about like 200 high schoolers who are hardcore nerfers. They nerf every spring within their entire community. Its a annual thing, its really insane. I don't know if this has been posted before...it's fairly old, but here it is...

#48207 Maveric Rev-6 Mod

Posted by Arcanum on 27 February 2005 - 05:52 PM in Modifications

Hey, I've been on NerfHq for a little while and decided to join here. Tell me if I'm completely off the wall here but, it was under my impression that the whole front is not needed. It's simply there for looks. That is what I thought...tell me if I'm wrong.
Determining that this is unnecessary, why doesn't someone just saw off the front end, so the revolver section is open, and extend the barrels?
