No. Well not of a BBB at least. Slug is modding an SM1.5k for the winner now.

If you're using a breeched gun you get:
PROS:
1. Quicker ROF
2. You don't have to carry around a ram-rod, (even though it's obviously not a major problem just figured I
throw that out there).
CONS:
1. Worse seal.
2. Slightly worse range.
If youre using a singled gun you get:
PROS:
1. Perfect seal (depending on which gun you use).
2. Slightly better range.
3. It's cheaper, (unless of course you use a brass singled barrel).
CONS:
1. Slow ROF
2. You have to carry around a ram rod, (even though it's obviously not a major problem just figured I'd throw that out there).
What gun do you plan on putting,
A: The breech on.
B: The singled barrel on.

Dude, take a shot at making the gun rear loading.
I do understand it could be a challenging process, but it would definetly be worth the risk. I also understand
that you could mess up and risk breaking the gun, but like I said before it would be worth it and a lot better than having to ramm down all the darts.
First of all ramming darts tremendously decreases rate of fire and it makes not only slower, but a lot harder to
use.
Also it looks very nice and if you don't make it rear loading your the only one that needs to deal with loading
it, the decreased rate of fire, and difficulty to load, not us.

Instead of changing both the barrel and ammo you just changed the ammo.
That looks like a great ball launcher.
Try and find a way that you can load in like 3 Zoom o balls and have them advance as you shoot kind of like a
pump action shotgun.

This does greatly improve the stock blaster.
It also greatly improves basic mods for this blaster, and even some advanced mods.
It looks like a great job, and this gun should be very useful in war.
That thing would look sweet with a paintjob.

This is a very clean mod.
This really isn't very related to the topic, (the actual shotgun grip) but does the recon have any mods done to
it?
I also second the fact that the only dislike I have to this mod is the fact that you have to salvage another recon
to complete it.

Very nicely done.
It looks very good and I love the paintjob.
Also in the beginning of the mod you said that instead of pushing it to prime you pull it. It may just be me but
to prime the BBB you pull it back and then it's primed. Do you mean just the motion of pushing it back in and
then pulling it out again, or was it just a typo?

The gun in a whole seems like it functions well.
You may want to find a way to work out the little problems.
Ranges would be nice though.
I mean I know ranges vary.
It depends on:
1. If you angle it.
a How much you angle it.
b If it's shot flat.
2. How tall you are.
3. Your dart barrel fit.
4 The wind.
5. Obviously the power of your blaster.
Though you can still take the range and give us an idea.
EDIT: Sorry you posted your ranges while I was in the middle of posting this.

I'm pretty sure you could take the gun apart. Take the shell with the sticker on it. Soak it in water, and peel
the sticker off.
Thanks for the suggestion Moonlight, but I can certainly vouch that in my experience this is not a good idea. This type of sticker (which are the same as the ones on the E-a-B ) are very much like paper. They may have had a coating at some point, but it's most likely long gone if there ever was. On the E-a-B, all the water was able to do (even when just simply trying to scrub them off after they were ruined) was to soften the paper itself.
I think our best hope would be some way to loosen the glue's hold, but I havent the foggiest on a good way to do this.
Sorry for the bad advice
I've had no past experience with the secret strike 1 at all.
I do know that method works with other stickers though so...
#243108 Homemade Arrows

Have you experimented with a pointy tip?
The only reason I ask this is because I think there may be an good increase in the arrows range consider the
pointy tip would makethe arrow a good amount more aerodinamic.
One way you might be able to do this is by molding and folding the craft foam into a cone like shape and fill it
with hot glue.
I haven't yet.
That could be one way, although I fear it might be structurally unsound and a little heavy (all that hot glue).
I'll look around for something, maybe at the craft store or my hardware store tomorrow
It doesn't neccesarily have to be filled with hot glue either.
1. Take the craft foam.
2. Rap bend it into a cone shape.
3. Secure into that shape with small amounts of light weight tape.
4. Fill tip with A LITTLE hot glue.
5. Coat the bottom of the ring of the cone with zap-a-gap.
6. Stick it on the end.
7. Then possibly if the bond is not strong enough put SMALL amounts of hot glue.
If you follow this, and it actually works out you should have lesss weight and more aerodynamicy then the other design.

Does anybody have any ideas for preserving stickers?
I have a beautiful Secret Shot 1 with near pristine stickers on it, and want them to last. Seeing as this Blaster is 15 years old I'm pretty sure they won't hold up to much abuse.
As a precaution, I'll be working on getting a good scan of them, in case anyone wants them (or I eff them up and need new ones). This brings another question. Has a conclusion been reached about how to safely remove old stickers like these, or is it better to scan whilst the stickers are still on the blaster? The set on my E-a-B weren't very nice, but attempting to remove them thoroughly ruined them, and that was technically even younger than the SS1.
I'm pretty sure you could take the gun apart. Take the shell with the sticker on it. Soak it in water, and peel
the sticker off.
I am not sure if this is the right way to do it so don't unless someone else confirms it, but I'm pretty sure it would work.

Alright, sorry for the double post but, I just realized that the hole in the back of the slider bar just wasn't
cutting is so I had to completely cut off the back.
The only down fall of this part is the fact that it only leaves you one screw post, (I'm gonna try and figure out
that problem later.)
I also added E-tape on the plunger tube, behind the spring, similar to what is done to the recon, to increase
power.
I don't know how much the power was increased seeing as it is pitch black outside and have absolutely no way
of doing a range test, (I will hopefully update this tommorrow).
Thanks for all the great feedback keep it coming!

What if you were to "manta" (stupid term, but it gets the message through) and put a PVC handle between the priming grips, so that way you reload them both with one prime, that with a plunger tube replacement and you have a 20-shot 50-foot-or-so plastic diddle machine!
Yeah we have to keep positive and think of all the great ways to mod this gun, like the above ^^.
20 shots, 50 feet... That would be good!
Also reverse plungers can still be modded and this particular gun seems that it may be able to get a
spring replacement.

Just wondering....Since this blaster can accept long shot clips will it also accept the raider drum magazine. If so, this will definitely be a mod I will be doing.
Yeah I would assume it could, but it may need some extra support because the drum mag has to be a good
amount heavier.
Also you HAVE to make the clip accept stefans, (if you haven't already).
