#64720 Tired Of Making Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 01 October 2005 - 06:24 AM in General Nerf

If you guys ever get tired of making darts, you may want to use the premature blossoms that come off of plants. I use the round things that come off Crape Myrtle trees. You can't reuse ammo, but the ammo grows back and someplaces you can find ten or more trees grouped together at a park.

Esta aqui!



#61940 I Use Berries For Ammo.

Posted by Whatitis on 14 August 2005 - 07:35 PM in General Nerf

Actually, I've found a better source for ammo. I now use seeds that grow off bushes and sometimes bulbs of small flowers that sprout on those bushes. They do make your gun dirty after a while, but I clean it out with a pipe cleaner and it's fine. I found some sort of a seed that is green when it is growing, then turns a dark brown and falls off the branch. If the seed is too big for my barrel, I can reshape it and still use it. The seeds smell terrible though.



#61900 I Use Berries For Ammo.

Posted by Whatitis on 13 August 2005 - 11:53 PM in General Nerf

I know how you can make your own darts now, stefans, and they shoot better then stock darts. I did this all the time until I got tired of the effort in making them. So one day I discovered that the berries that grow on the branches of my tree are the perfect fit in cpvc. So I shot out the berry to test how far it would shoot. I shot as far as a dart, but was a little less accurate. I decided to just use these berries from now on, however, because I had about a thousand of them growing on my tree. Has anyone else ever discovered this? Peace out. Pull out our troops from Iraq.



#50190 Woohoo! 13 Beat A 4!

NC State is going all the way after they beat UConn! I live two blocks from campus so if they win again things will go crazy!

I can't believe Fairleigh Dickenson lost!



#48718 Best Feeling In Nerf

Posted by Whatitis on 04 March 2005 - 11:01 PM in General Nerf

I was just wondering, what do you think is the best feeling in nerf, capping a guy from 70 feet away, ambushing with an automatic or outsmarting the enemy with a diversion? Although I've only been able to truly do it twice, I think losing someone really sends them to their lowest point. What are your ideas?



#47767 TV Show Nerf Sightings

Posted by Whatitis on 22 February 2005 - 04:12 PM in Off Topic

On the show Mail Call on the history channel, the guy was talking about gatling guns. At the end of the show he says you can buy your own and pulls out a Wildfire.



#47665 Splitfire Problem

Posted by Whatitis on 20 February 2005 - 08:44 PM in General Nerf

My splitfire stopped firing out of the right barrel, but the left barrel still fires the normal distance. What happened to my right barrel?



#47597 Maverick Cocking Problem

Posted by Whatitis on 20 February 2005 - 01:21 AM in Modifications

I did the barrel modification and put everything together, but when I try to cock it I can only cock it once and a small trace of air comes out. I can't figure out why the cocking mechanism won't work because everything looks like it is in the right spot. How can I fix it?



#46468 15 Woot!

Posted by Whatitis on 24 January 2005 - 03:39 PM in Off Topic

Happy birthday to me!!! Hopefully I'll get that Blues Brothers DVD I've been wanting...



#42543 Copper Over Brass

Posted by Whatitis on 25 November 2004 - 08:25 PM in General Nerf

Just a quick question, why is brass prefered over copper? Also for those of you who use copper, what kind of range do you get for certain guns?

Sorry for saying the title backwards.



#42160 Computer Problem

Posted by Whatitis on 21 November 2004 - 04:32 PM in Off Topic

I'm using a 128mb of RAM and it's a little slow. I'm trying to load CoD onto my other computer which has 512mb, but it says there is insufficient space when I go through the installation. Would anyone know why? Thanks for the replies.



#42062 Computer Problem

Posted by Whatitis on 19 November 2004 - 08:05 PM in Off Topic

I know some of you guys are good with computers, so I'm hoping you'd be able to solve my problem. Today I bought Call of Duty for PC but I can't start the game after I've installed it because I don't have enough RAM. Would anyone know how I could aquire more RAM, as you can tell I'm not good with computers. Thanks for the help.



#40779 Legal Issues

Posted by Whatitis on 04 November 2004 - 04:02 PM in Homemades

Would any kind include paintball, airsoft, ect.?



#40713 Cutting Straight

Posted by Whatitis on 03 November 2004 - 07:17 PM in General Nerf

Does anyone have any special techniques they use to ensure a straight cut? I use a hacksaw and my recent cuts have all been slanted, therefore i had to sand the barrel down to make it straight.



#40046 Tape On Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 27 October 2004 - 07:18 PM in General Nerf

It also comes in different colors, such yellow, making it easier to find stefans.



#40017 Tape On Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 27 October 2004 - 03:55 PM in General Nerf

For you guys who said you put electric tape on your darts, was that the kind that surrounds the entire dart or just the collar?



#39947 Tape On Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 26 October 2004 - 09:03 PM in General Nerf

The darts I'm talking about are stefans. Are you guys saying that tape on darts helps or hurts air guns?



#39926 Tape On Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 26 October 2004 - 07:21 PM in General Nerf

My at2k is multibarreled.



#39921 Tape On Darts?

Posted by Whatitis on 26 October 2004 - 07:06 PM in General Nerf

Has anyone ever tried putting packaging tape around darts? I did this for some pink ones and the range was terrific in my cpvc at2k (95-100 ft).



#39380 Sox Vs. Yanks

Posted by Whatitis on 20 October 2004 - 07:38 PM in Off Topic

In case no one has noticed, tonight is the seventh game of the championship series between Boston and New York. I'm a diehard sox fan and I was wondering if anyone else out there has been following the playoffs.



#38469 Spray Painting Guns

Posted by Whatitis on 06 October 2004 - 06:43 PM in General Nerf

For those of you who like to spray paint your guns black with Krylon Fusion, do you keep spraying the gun until it turns a very dark shade of black or do you spray it once and it will become a dark shade? Sorry for the run on sentence.



#37391 Nested At2k

Posted by Whatitis on 17 September 2004 - 07:10 PM in Modifications

Okay, thanks for the replies.



#37388 Nested At2k

Posted by Whatitis on 17 September 2004 - 06:59 PM in Modifications

Could I have a nested at2k multibarreled?



#37383 Nested At2k

Posted by Whatitis on 17 September 2004 - 06:31 PM in Modifications

Allright, thanks.



#37375 Nested At2k

Posted by Whatitis on 17 September 2004 - 05:31 PM in Modifications

I plan on nested brass modding my at2k, but how long should I make the 17/32" brass.



#37210 Pink Darts

Posted by Whatitis on 14 September 2004 - 07:44 PM in General Nerf

If pink darts have a tendency to retain a new shape when manipulated, will they work well in a nested brass gun since there is the smaller size of brass?



#35712 The Lnl

Posted by Whatitis on 28 August 2004 - 10:45 PM in General Nerf

Why do people love it so much? Is is because of accuracy or nostalgia? I would rather just buy a Nitefinder than a gun that costs up to five times the amount, but that's just my opinion.



#35710 At Breech Mod

Posted by Whatitis on 28 August 2004 - 10:40 PM in Modifications

Yes, it's an unknown breech.



#35701 At Breech Mod

Posted by Whatitis on 28 August 2004 - 10:04 PM in Modifications

Hey guys, if I were to breech mod my at2k with brass, how long should the 17/32'' barrel be?



#32958 Modded Nitefinder

Posted by Whatitis on 02 August 2004 - 09:58 PM in Modifications

Take that and rewind it back.



#32297 Where Can I Buy Fbr On The Internet?

Posted by Whatitis on 25 July 2004 - 09:53 PM in General Nerf

Loghelp looks like it will be useful, has anyone ever ordered fbr from loghelp?



#32291 Where Can I Buy Fbr On The Internet?

Posted by Whatitis on 25 July 2004 - 09:15 PM in General Nerf

I want to know where I can get fbr from the internet and what would be the shipping costs. A'ight?

By the way, can I get PETG on the internet so that I don't have to pay a large s/h fee?



#11757 Stefans

Posted by Whatitis on 23 October 2003 - 04:27 PM in General Nerf

What's do you do to a stefan dart to make it more noticeable when you're looking for them?



#6519 Packaging Tape On Darts

Posted by Whatitis on 03 July 2003 - 09:03 PM in General Nerf

Has anyone found that wrapping clear packaging tape around their stefans helps to straighten darts and may increase range? I was using some on my darts to help them fly straight. You have to wrap the tape around the rim of the dart or else it will just twirl in the air. The dart has to be stretched and becomes thin to compensate for the width of the tape.



#6402 Stefan Length

Posted by Whatitis on 01 July 2003 - 10:52 PM in General Nerf

I've been wondering about this a while and was going to experiment on stefans but decided to come here in the interest of saving time, money and foam other than the fact that I was too lazy. What is the best length of stefans and does it vary with the gun? Thanks for any answers, unless they aren't any good.



#6183 North Carolina Nerfers?

Posted by Whatitis on 28 June 2003 - 07:09 PM in Nerf Wars

Hey that's cool, I never knew there were any nerfers in North Carolina. What part of Johnston County do you live in? If it is close enough to Wake then my guys and I could nerf with you and your guys.



#6168 North Carolina Nerfers?

Posted by Whatitis on 28 June 2003 - 12:17 PM in Nerf Wars

Holy crap that is pretty lucky. I live in Raleigh walking distance from NC State. I and five others guy nerf.



#6166 North Carolina Nerfers?

Posted by Whatitis on 28 June 2003 - 11:36 AM in Nerf Wars

Does anyone live in North Carolina, maybe even the triangle area?



#5609 Price Of A Powerclip

Posted by Whatitis on 11 June 2003 - 11:00 AM in General Nerf

Could someone tell me what the average price of a powerclip is?
