#101023 Bike Pump Burst Seal Rifle
Posted by Jergling on 12 March 2007 - 03:27 PM in Homemades
Btw: The barrel is half inch PVC, and I still have to cram deflated stock darts in to make them fit, while still hanging an inch out of the barrel. What size PVC should I be using? The only reason the PVC is so wrongly sized is because I'm recycling it from an old mosquito net frame (that I'll never use again).
Would shells be a good idea? or just not worth the time to make.
#101008 Bike Pump Burst Seal Rifle
Posted by Jergling on 11 March 2007 - 06:21 PM in Homemades
I made a burst seal gun, I got it to shoot around 40' with 4 layers of plastic bag (search "burst seal" for a full explanation) I used a bike pump and two pieces of PVC. I will post pictures soon, but I'm in a hurry right now, they may be posted tomorrow.
The pressure sorce was a foot pump, and I just smashed bag between a big and small piece of PVC.
I hope to put a better barrel on it, and then maybe a burst-shell system of sorts could be installed, and possibly a breech.
Thank you Badger
I wrote this in hurry, really sorry I can't post pics right now.
Got more time, here's some pics:
The Gun
The valve/pump connection
I makeshiftly connected the pump by wrapping layers of duct tape over the end of the tube, and sticking a basketball inflator needle through them. The adhesive made a resonable seal.
The burst seal is just crushed between pipes, if you can see that.
I got it to shoot around 15' with no burst seal, and in the open (at an upward firing angle) with 5 layers of bag, it got around 50' (That's an approximation)
Edit: added bottom section
#100986 Concept Dart
Posted by Jergling on 10 March 2007 - 08:31 PM in Modifications
This would work really well with mega's (bigger size), if people are a little disoriented when working with tiny things, or they're just clumsy in general. Also, for anybody who airsofts, you could make a shotgun/sabot round by having a thin slice of FBR infront of a bunch of plastic bb's, and the a FBR sabot behind it. Just an idea I thought I would toss in.
I was thinking the airsoft thing earlier, that would probably work.
I tried the sabot in my modded BBB. The barrel is a crayola and way to small, but if i used a pencil as a ramrod, I got the sabot and the shot to fit, and shot it against the door.
Shot without sabot against door: made weak 'whumph' sound as bbs hit door
Shot with sabot against door: Made painfully loud cracking sound (I think I dented my door)
I'm kind of worried about my door, but the sabot did its job. I haven't made any more or tried paper shells, the paper may make it too big for the barrel. I think I should research pvc shell systems, like in Boltsniper's FAR, those clips should work if I can figure out how to make the loading system out of balsa .
The glue would be easy, but I have trouble with two parts of that:
1: I put markings on the shot to show which sides line up (reason I'm looking into clips)
2: I used up all the hot glue screwing around with old darts, I thought I had a huge reserve pack
EDIT: As follows:
I was looking at Boltsniper's SCAR, which is incredible, but without ever seeing the shell sealing mechanism, a sudden understanding of it came over me, that if I make the barrel out of the same sized pvc as the shell (that should be assumed) then I can use a PVC pipe attachment piece, and have the bolt slide it over the shell.
I think I understood this when I found a pic of the SCAR assembled, with a glimpse of the inside chamber. I'll make a picture of how I think it works, tell me if this is right, or if there's a better way.
I have no machining skills, no machines to improve skills, and no understanding of how people carve custom plastic with what looks like Sketchup (Boltsnipers writup had a sketchup looking CAD drawing)

Regardless, the way you've worked this whole thing out is still amazing to me, my mechanical building skill is minimal.
Edit: had a few missing commas, periods, capitals (very careful about that now)
#100975 Concept Dart
Posted by Jergling on 10 March 2007 - 09:21 AM in Modifications
I haven't tried loading multiple rounds per barrel, but that would be awsome.
Hmmm, magstrike-shotgun combo. Have to ask my bro's permission to use his. That would be murder to anyone, 8 darts per barrel, times 20 barrels, I'd be firing 160 sprayfire shots in around 3 seconds! I have to try that, And that's only with 2 shells per barrel.
I'll try to make paper shells. How should I keep them organized, I just thought about that last night. Still, airsofters and paintballers don't go back for their spent ammo, why should a nerfer have to. (Unless it's inside, then it really becomes a problem with dogs)
#100969 Moddable?
Posted by Jergling on 09 March 2007 - 11:02 PM in General Nerf
Oh god.... THAT THING.
that was my first reaction
it's not designed to shoot far.
I don't think so, it's just that it's launching what looks like a half pound bobber, if you completely removed the hook and line system (and if it uses air pressure) this may shoot pretty far with a barrel mod. If it's not air powered, forget it.

#100963 Concept Dart
Posted by Jergling on 09 March 2007 - 10:11 PM in Modifications
By pie-slicing a short (to conserve foam) FBR dart body, and attaching BBs to the end, I made a shotgun dart, which shoots up to four incredibly small darts every shot. I'm still trying to perfect it, but it fires reasonably strong, and I can shoot it out of any stefan-capable gun.
I need suggestions on how to get better sealance with the cracks, and I thing this would only be effective in shell-loading guns, as it takes around 20 seconds to get the pieces together. Speaking of which, maybe their's a better way to put them together.
Here's some pictures that were mostly too close for my camera to focus on.
Suggestions?
#100613 Soldat Nerf Mod
Posted by Jergling on 01 March 2007 - 12:25 PM in Off Topic
Other thoughts:
Maybe the spas could be replaced with the manta gun (forgot the name) that shoots 4 darts at once.
Not nerf mortar, TITAN!
I think this would be a good game for modding bullets, since they are actually visible, and have a trejectory rather than an unstopable, direct path.

Then my trigger shattered, and It became even more defective.

The shotgun part of it is going to be helped by the dart pushing approach, since my shotgun idea has absolutely no seal to help the dart ge pushed out, and in fact works almost like a vent for pressure-a bad thing.
Also, I am probably going to be able to pick it up this Friday.

#100566 No Clip Rapid Fire?
Posted by Jergling on 28 February 2007 - 05:39 PM in Modifications
The show has THE WORST writing of any show I have ever seen on any of the Discovery network channels. The garbage that issues forth from the unintentionally comical host is at best 25% accurate and 75% marketing drivel with a very limited selection of adjectives that make him sound even dumber. He's a decent interviewer, but a terrible host. They should not have bothered to let him say anything on camera.
Yah, I know and totally agree, the host uses the same nonscientific terms repetedly, I just put it on mute and watch for the bizar, or more practical things, this was probably an impractical, bizar thing. I was thinking that the pressure input system here would solve some motion flaws in Nerf design, like some of the supermaxx line, which had structural integrity issues in several places. I do see the similarity to ball launchers though.
added an air inlet behind each dart in the barrel
That was what I was saying, but thanks for clarifying, my description was just the low-res video. I thought that possibly the suction cup headed darts could seal the barrel, but wouldn't allow it to launch.
Ok, I removed the idiot part, he's not good at TV, but he did service.
#100552 No Clip Rapid Fire?
Posted by Jergling on 28 February 2007 - 01:31 PM in Modifications
I watch this show called Futureweapons, where they have different guns, missiles, aircraft, explosives, etc., and they showed a gun that was based on the principle that the only moving part is the barrel, making mechanics incredibly simple, and the gun insanely fast.
The gun (in real weaponry) works by stacking several rounds into each of its barrels (4 on handgun), and then igniting the caps in order, making it the fastest firing weapon ever, and it doesn't require a clip.
I thought that the bullets could be darts, and that instead of igniting anything, air could be pumped in.
To explain, here's a youtube of it.
all that really matters is the part about the chip sending electric charges to behind bullets, what if one of the mechanical geniuses here could make something mechanical to pump air behind darts in order? I think that would be the end of slow barrel reloads.
Just a thought.

Posted by Jergling on 28 February 2007 - 01:11 PM in Homemades
I also left my 20' length of FBR at my grandparents' house to straighten, its been a month since I left it there, and last time I wen there I slept the whole time with the flu, so I will bring it home next time, and use BBs and hot glue to make real stefans.
Is there anything that I can do to conserve that foam, I'd rather be using the skewered length to make stefans, could I replace it?

And yes, that drawing is exactly what my gun looks like from the top, down to the detail of the tapered stick.
I don't have the gun with me, I built it with garbage at my grandparents' house when I was bored.
I'll draw a actual picture now, I guess I should explain like you said.
(the dart had this giant lead tack in it)

#100468 Nerf Shotgun
Posted by Jergling on 26 February 2007 - 06:49 PM in Homemades
Is your shotgun going to fire off multiple darts? Or is it just going to work like a shotgun?
Even though I'm a noob here, I'm a gamer, and this is really irritating to me too, you people need to understand that shotguns fire SHOT, which is a bunch of projectiles at once, please try to understand that.
#100463 Cheapest Homemade Ever!
Posted by Jergling on 26 February 2007 - 06:37 PM in Homemades
NOTE: a shotgun is a gun that shoots SHOT, rifles are very different from shotguns, to be a shotgun, it needs to fire spraying particles.
Don't laugh at my noobiness, I only intended to make a slingshot in the first place.
#90874 First Try At Stefans
Posted by Jergling on 30 September 2006 - 09:39 AM in Modifications
1) weight could be an issue. By BBs we mean metal BBs for airguns. Somepeople use those. Others use size 3/0 fishing weights. Weaker springers require lighter weights.
2) BBBs require a longer barrel than a crayola
3) The dart to barrel fitmight not be correct. You have to remember not everyone has the same brand of foam and barrel materials. Not every pack of FBR is going to be the same exact size.
Im getting unbelievably long ranges with a 1/4" tiny pvc ring in the barrel, I don't belive in long barrels working, its just a myth
#90873 New Version Bbb Mod
Posted by Jergling on 30 September 2006 - 09:31 AM in Modifications
Very nice. What is the BBB's stock range or out of the box by the way?
it does shoot around 30' stock, but when I tried it with Big Salvo arrows It went somewhere around 70', It was pretty awsome. the salvo arrows were more front heavy and shorter, plus the wings dont fall off. But now my bbb only shoots Micro darts because of the liberally applied duct tape around the barrel.

#90700 Barrel Extension Idea
Posted by Jergling on 28 September 2006 - 03:46 PM in Modifications
1. A dart should not have to pass fully through a barrel, this was the fatal mistake nerf made in the Ls
2. without the factor of a dart passing through the barrel, there is no reason to elongate it.
I am not inducing a flame here, I just don't feel that longer barrels serve a purpose, only tighter-more pressurized-barrels
#90635 Super Easy Bbb Mods?
Posted by Jergling on 27 September 2006 - 06:51 PM in Modifications
I want to get a BBB, and to mod it, but without getting any stuff from stores(barrels, foam, etc.). I've checked on google and the search, and I can't find anything! Help!
P.S. I know I that i suck, just gimme a break.
Okay, i did an incredibly simple bbb mod, following loosely along several others, I unscrewed it, and took out that front air restrictor, remember, ONLY the front, not the thing with the little spring attached.
I dremmeled down the four little nubs that keep that front button thing from spinning or coming out.
Then i simply shoved a 2" crayola barrel down it and duct taped it on like crazy.
At first i had this dumb pvc ring instead of the crayola stuck to the front, but it was really inaccurate and i won't try to explain it.
Apparently it's "impossible *********" to get 105' which was my record until i was told it was "--------" So I have been instructed by General Cole (i think that's his name) to remove the apparently "false" distance from my stated record.
