#228516 The Xbow And Lnl Debate

Posted by umpshaplapa on 06 May 2009 - 12:57 PM in General Nerf

I think you are definitely paying for the prestige that comes with the X-bow. Considering you can get a +bow that gets just as good, or better ranges than it.

#227989 Dual Reactors

Posted by umpshaplapa on 03 May 2009 - 08:06 PM in Modifications

Range is about 90' with stock taggers, this is with an unknown angle
Okay that seems like a bunch of bullshit. There is no fucking way you are getting 90 feet out a reactor with a stock dart even with a 180 degrees angle. Also I would suggest that you make your pictures a little bit. Other then that I like it but i still don't think that you need 2 shots, and it seems rather uncomfortable to hold. But overall welcome to the haven.

180 degrees is flat...

I can't really see what you did that well, the pics are pretty small. Looks like an interesting idea though.

#227683 X Men Origins: Wolverine

Posted by umpshaplapa on 02 May 2009 - 05:03 PM in Off Topic

Even though I liked it, I think it was a cheap play to get more money. The first hour of the movie was just him being a lumber jack.

I think they may do the other X-men's origins, but I hope not.

I can't wait to see it finished! I'm glue you put one of those NB-1s to good use!

#227276 South Seno; Canceled!

Hey, I just realized I won't be able to make this war. As a short term class, I'll be homeless for May 24-30th. I doubt Will will go without me.
I hope y'all have fun. I don't think I'll be doing anything else in the summer, so I'll hopefully see some of you at some of those wars.

#227127 Nerf In Atlanta

I'm moving back to the good ol' US of A (Atlanta) and I was wondering if anyone nerfs out there.

Where do you live in 'Bama? I thought you were in Huntsville, which is not 2 hours away.

#226744 Stefan Dart Tutorial Video

Posted by umpshaplapa on 27 April 2009 - 10:23 PM in General Nerf

My only complaint is not straightening your foam before you make the dart. I would use a ruler also, make your darts as consistent as possible.

Posted by umpshaplapa on 27 April 2009 - 10:07 PM in Off Topic

I'll play zombies, if my xbox starts working. I just took it apart and worked on it. Now instead of having the ring, it freezes occasionally.
On zombies, leave on guy at a window constantly healing it, and when there is only one zombie left, it can't get in. That way you can take brakes/get guns and the like.

Wow! A new member that isn't illiterate!
Nice job man. How big is it compared to a crossfire or a NF?

EDIT- Wow. I have 350 posts. I have to much time...
Also, that was your 1st post? Bonus points.

Lube the plunger tube and head. Did wonders for me.

He's right about that. Just make sure you get some O-ring/ Silicon lube. And not the spray stuff, get the really gooey type they sell at Ace.

#225656 Leaks

Posted by umpshaplapa on 24 April 2009 - 11:59 PM in Modifications

Tantum is right, I forgot about super glue. It will work for sealing things, just don't super-glue your pin.

#225649 Leaks

Posted by umpshaplapa on 24 April 2009 - 11:03 PM in Modifications

Pictures would help, but from what i understand, I think you should try to fill the crack with goop.

That's what I would suggest. Just try not to goop the firing pin in place.

#225610 Tool For Tightening Rings?

Posted by umpshaplapa on 24 April 2009 - 09:08 PM in General Nerf

like this one?

http://www.homedepot...uctId=100001470 http://www.homedepot...uctId=100001470

Yes. Those would do the job.

Don't buy that one. It is listed at $144. You can get good ones for about $25.

I got some for $8. They work fine for me.

#225511 My Recon

Posted by umpshaplapa on 24 April 2009 - 04:40 PM in Modifications

ITs a good secondary but the barrel keeps falling off.

Try using Epoxy.

Or plumbers goop+ something else.

I live right in the middle of town. Same with Wildo. What part of the city are you going to live in?

Mulletman, I think it's time to sack up and address all these complaints.

I got my stuff today, kind of. I got an NIB recon instead of a PAS and AT2K...

Did anyone order the recon?

#224645 Foam

Posted by umpshaplapa on 20 April 2009 - 09:23 PM in General Nerf

I have this, it's terrible. The darts are not durable at all. They don't go very far, and the foam is about as tight as (overtly sexual comment here) in pretty much every barrel you put it in. It's awful, I end up losing most darts after one shot with a med/high-powered gun.

Edit: But hell, maybe I just got a really bad batch.

I don't think this is MH foam then. I use MH foam from heriticorp, and my darts stay together fine; as long as you don't shoot your walls from close range.

#224643 Firefly Intergration

Posted by umpshaplapa on 20 April 2009 - 09:17 PM in Modifications

Only 25'? I've heard of FFs going twice that. I like the 2k integration though. For the trigger, did you just bend the firing pin to a right angle, attach it to the end-cap, and make a hole so you could pull it back?

My bad, I didn't think it was worth making a new thread over. I can edit it out if you want.

Hey guys, I was thinking about hosting a war up here in Atlanta, and I was wondering what date y'all would want it to be on.
Any date except July 10-17th would work I think.

#224600 I Am Very Very Sorry!

I agree with Ason and Bob. We give him some time, and if he is clearly lying about sending the stuff, unleash the dogs.

You can also move the spring to a different peg, to make it pull more on the trigger. It's in slugs mod in the directory.

It looks like the stock is removable to me. The shotguns look the same except one has a big turret on the front.

#224231 Rfsg Rotation Mech

Posted by umpshaplapa on 17 April 2009 - 10:05 PM in Modifications

I glued it and it works. I would also suggest covering the outside of the rotation arm in E-tape, so that it stays pressed against the gear disk. It helps the rotation.

I love the huge scratch you painted down the left side. Your battle scaring is awesome!

#224104 Dreamworks Monsters Vs Aliens

At least you have that nice shell. It looks like you could put some kind of AT2K sized tank in the top, and maybe a shotgun titan in the huge foregrip.

#223960 South Seno; Canceled!

Posted by umpshaplapa on 16 April 2009 - 02:36 PM in Nerf Wars

30th is better for me. I didn't really use the cover at the last war...ever. I didn't really need to use it. I think it's kind of boring if you just sit behind cover and try to pick people off. More fun to rush after them.

#223893 The Foam Shot

Posted by umpshaplapa on 15 April 2009 - 10:42 PM in Modifications

It would probably be better with a spring addiction/replacement, sense you said it's spring was quite weak.

#223874 South Seno; Canceled!

Posted by umpshaplapa on 15 April 2009 - 09:15 PM in Nerf Wars

If I did come, Wildo would probably tag along with me.
I thought plugged BBBBs were banned at most wars now. I leave mine unplugged for that reason.
Also, I agree about eliminating some of the downtime between rounds. I found myself waiting for people to stop messing around when I was ready to go.

#223829 South Seno; Canceled!

Posted by umpshaplapa on 15 April 2009 - 06:51 PM in Nerf Wars

Plugged big blasts? I'm a maybe for this one. The last one was during my spring break.
Also, the 30th would be better for me.

fullmetalgir: In response from youtube question, I most likely won't be there because I can only make two summer war trips a year and those are reserved for Summer SENO and and SoF SENO but good luck with your war. You and jumpy have earned my respect by helping revive the south by hosting wars.

awww ok well tell me the dates of the other wars thanks

The SoF one is August 3rd.

#223319 One Pump At3k

Posted by umpshaplapa on 12 April 2009 - 10:30 PM in Modifications

Why would plugging the pump make you pump more times?

I'm guessing, Because it can hold more air, and doesn't stop at a certain pressure.
I think it would stop at a certain pressure if you DIDN'T plug the pump.

Exactly my point! It DOES stop filling the tank when you DON'T plug the pump. You can keep pumping, and pumping till your tiny arm can't take it anymore, but it's not putting air in the tank after a few pumps, or one if you did this mod, if it's not plugged. When it IS plugged, you will have to pump more than once, because the tank will take air until it blows.

But you should be able to get the same amount of air in on the same number of pumps. I thought he was saying multiple pumps for the same amount of air.
