Not really, it helps a little, but if the o - ring is too big, it will have trouble moving down the plunger tube. I recommend keeping the original o -ring, but put some e-tape under it but not too much.CrakerJack: Does it make a difference when you lube it?

Your o- ring might be too tight. If the o- ring is too tight, then the ranges will be greatly decreased because the plunger won't move down the plunger tube as fast.

Sounds like a wrestling move rather than a menu item.
What kind of wrestling do you watch?

I personally prefer to buy my cpvc at Menard's. They always have tons of the stuff. If you are near a Menard's, I recommend going there first.

That is one of the most beautiful things that I have ever seen. Excellent idea putting the lsfg on the titan like that. It makes it look so much cooler.

Why would you need to completely open it up anyway? If you are trying to remove the internal parts, you can do the by just unscrewing the gun and gently pulling them out. When I made my super clip, I didn't have to open the clip entirely and it turned out great.

What size cpvc would you recommend? What's the difference? I know that standard and schedule 40 pvc is plain white, or slightly off white.
1/2 inch CPVC. This is what I use for my nitefinders since I don't have any PETG. I use the same foam as you as well. The caulksaver foam in 1/2 inch CPVC is perfect. It is really tight in the barrel and gives me excellent ranges. I just CPVC'd a nitefinder a few days ago. I added an O-Ring and have only the original spring in it. I am getting 52 - 58ft. flat.

I got these at Menard's for $4.99. They are amazing! They are Olympia Screwdrivers and are perfect for Nerf guns. I highly recomend these.

I just did this mod today. I also recomend drilling out the air restrictors in the shells. This will give you an extra 3ft.

The clip is probably not what is causing your problems. I suggest taking out the internals, check them for cracks or any abnormalities, and then make sure that they are put back correctly into the gun by using the modifications internals directory.

You need to lubricate the o-ring, spring and plunger tube. This drastically increases ranges. Use silicone lubricant.

I wanted to make some stefans but I couldn't get any BBs. However I did have some steel washers like the ones used for Captain Slug's stefans but no felt discs. So, I invented a new stefan where you hotglue the washer to one end of the stefan and then put a dome of hot glue over it for safety. Make sure that the hot glue doesn't drip over the ends or it will be a pain in the you-know-where to load your darts.
You did not invent these. People have been making these for a long time. They are all over youtube.

Yes, it has a large impact on the performance, use silicon lube or something else suggested in the Plastic Safe Lubricants Thread.No. does that really change the overall performance? If this is a stupid question, I'm sorry. I'm pretty new to modding and this is my first big mod.Did you lube it?
Thanks.

How did you mod it, doing what to it?
I completely took out the air restrictor, but I left the dart tooth, I reinforced the catch, added a nf spring, and integrated the front gun to it. that's about it.

I have just recently modded my longshot. I added a front gun integration, ar removal, and a nitefinder spring. For some reason, the main gun isn't firing well at all. It is going maybe 25 feet. I have no idea what the problem is. Can somebody please help me????

My first longshot integration. 
Works really great, but hard to prime. Probably, because I added a nitefinder spring to it.

If you cpvc modded it, you can stick a coupler on the end of it. Just put the arrow on the coupler and shoot. Just make sure that your barrel isn't too long or the arrow won't go too far.
