#210330 I'm Thinking About Trying To Make...
Posted by shoeshine5 on 07 February 2009 - 11:12 PM in General Nerf
If your planning to make something as complicated as a Snapbow, you really should be able to do it yourself. You will get more accurate measurements and cleaner cuts that way.
My lowes carries a few springs, but they don't have the selection that my Ace or Home Depot have. A good way to find out would be to visit an actual Lowes.

All it leads me to is a Star Wars site...am I missing something?
It has a picture of a magazine page of information about hasbro. Nothing terribly interesting or groundbreaking in it though.

It refers to a few new blasters with interchangable parts.
Also found this video, at around 24 seconds in it looks like there is something else new next to it to the right

Regardless, the Steelers were the better team tonight. That last play of the first half was a killer.

EDIT: Here are the patients for lazy people:
Raider CS-6 - 76691227
Shadow Fury Foam Swords - 76691228 <------------------Swords are here
Magstrike AS-10 - 76691229
Attack Unit Dart Blaster - 76691230
Slam Fire - 76691232
Stampede Rev 12 - 76691235
Rampage EBF-25 - 76691236
Nice to see that some of my research has proved to be accurate. They look nice, but they would need to beat the Ja-Ru brand foam sword price of $2 for me to take much interest.
The back of the packaging might have info on future nerf releases.
#197399 Pretty Sweet Arse Deal! :d
Posted by shoeshine5 on 20 December 2008 - 02:12 AM in General Nerf
1/2" Clear Rigid PVC Pipe is 1.48 per foot.
They will only sell it to you in 10 foot sections. So for each 10' pipe it would be $14.80
If you were to order 50 feet worth it would be $74 minus 5% for a total of $70.30
If you were to order 100 feet it would be $148 minus 10% for a total of 133.20
If you were to order 300 feet it would be $444 minus 15% for a total of $377.40
Note that none of these figures include shipping, which for 300 feet worth of piping is going to be expensive.
In my opinion you are better off just buying it at the store or privately.
Edit rather than double post: They specifically say that they are willing to ship via different methods if you don't mind the pipes being cut.

I like the idea of being able to play a game off the hard drive, but I have a 20gig, and you lose a decent chunk of that just to system data. I rarely have more than 3 gigs available.

Despite contrary belief, it is not a flat rate for anything more than a pound. It goes by zones. If it was between two and three pounds it would be closer to $10. If you don't believe me, check out USPS.com
Anyway, best of luck with your auction.
#186148 Ebay Failure

1. Price - With shipping this would start at around $20 for me. Shipping either needs to be lower or the starting bid needs to be lower.
2. The modification - I appreciate that you posted seemingly honest ranges, but they are on the low side. Nothing you did was particularly difficult or expensive.
3. The paint job. The pictures aren't very good at showcasing the paint job. Although I like the paint scheme, again this is nothing special that I couldn't easily do myself.
4. The laser light. To me this isn't really a selling point. My night finder will never be accurate enough to warrant using this. Coolness factor doesn't equal performance.
Edit: I agree with TimmyTown above. I've found a good chunk of people who buy pre-modded nerf guns are younger children, who need their parents as a proxy bidder. If I was a parent, I certainly wouldn't want my kid playing around with that. The description of what you wrote may make sense to a member of the NIC, but not to an outsider.

It is a push pull pump. I think if you could get the air seal right it could fire three darts, for indoor nerf range.
I would just check out reactor mods for examples of people who converted ballguns for darts.

#181750 Nerf N Strike Game Trailer Released
Posted by shoeshine5 on 05 October 2008 - 04:02 PM in General Nerf
That would be the R700. And you're right it does look like it. Sort of.
TALKI: I'm thinkin that the long drawback may be used to go automatic, by using only a certain length of the drawback to shoot one dart. Which could allow it to do the whole 3-shot burst shpeal that people are talking about. I know that might be a little confusing. If you pull the priming handle back all the way and pull the trigger once, the handle would move X length down the side, pulling the trigger again will move it another X length. Holding down the trigger will shoot X darts at once. Whew, that was a mouthful. Seeing as I could barely put that into a coherent sentence, someone who might understand what I'm trying to get at do it for me.
Yes, you could make a multi stage plunger with multiple catches, but that doesn't solve the breach issue. You can have it fire three times, but you can't easily get three darts into the barrel. Also, the darts would have to be loaded in from the shortest plunger stroke for that to work.
I highly doubt Hasbro would release the s. rifle. The shell is far too realistic looking. I'm sure from a legal standpoint they don't want it being painted black and mistaken for a real rifle.

#181338 Nerf N Strike Game Trailer Released
Posted by shoeshine5 on 03 October 2008 - 09:06 PM in General Nerf
Did anyone else notice the huge distance the handle on the spartan moves? That's got to be a huge plunger. If it ever was made, it would have some amazing power wen modded.
Well if you look, it is also higher on the gun than the barrel is. This might not leave much space for a plunger to fit that would be in line with the barrel. The clip has to be at the back of the barrel (or at least close) for it to receive any real power. Hopefully Hasbro will release the overall shape, but I doubt it would have that long of a handle throw.
#181304 No...really...this Is A Nerf Grenade

It may be easy to dodge one, but not easy to dodge 5. Especially when you are camping on a flag.

#181277 Nerf N Strike Game Trailer Released
Posted by shoeshine5 on 03 October 2008 - 06:43 PM in General Nerf
As much as I would love to see both the s. rifle and the multiple grenade launcher, I am not hopeful.
I could completely see the Raider being released. It looks like just a recon with the clip on the side, a different barrel and a different stock. Nerf really doesn't have an answer for the Double Shot, which sells only for the fact it is the only toy shotgun readily available.
I think it would be great if the Spartan was in fact released with a 12 shot clip. That would be one of its major selling points.
Rather than double post---

The grenade launcher would be an interesting release for nerf. They really have slacked off in making a more interesting ball gun since the pulsator/ballzooka.

http://kotaku.com/50...-strike-trailer
In all I count about 28 weapons total
Real nerf guns usable: Titan (now with exploding rocket power), Firefly, Longshot, Maverick, Vulcan, Recon.
The complete shot:
This is the gun select screen, however if you watch the video you will see other guns that do not appear above.
Edit: The following nerf guns are now pending patents:
Raider CS-6 - 76691227
Shadow Fury Foam Swords - 76691228
Magstrike AS-10 - 76691229
Attack Unit Dart Blaster - 76691230
Slam Fire - 76691232
Stampede Rev 12 - 76691235
Rampage EBF-25 - 76691236
This by no means is an indicator that any of these new guns in the game will actually be released.
If you watch the video is slow motion you can make out some of the names of these new guns.

#178628 Sought-after Guns
Posted by shoeshine5 on 21 September 2008 - 02:49 PM in General Nerf
Sawtooth: I believe this was the first clip nerf gun released. Back in the day this gave you a huge advantage over the single shot weapons.
Ratchet Blast: This was one of my favorite guns as a child. I recently sold one and regret it. It features a unique priming setup, a handguard, a scope and one of the best stock paintjobs ever found in a nerf gun. Pictures don't really show the shiny blue paint.
AT2K: Many people want this one for its ability to be integrated into other weapons. It has good ranges and a small internal setup.
Maxshot: Can be modded for decent range.
Secret Shot 1 and 2: These are some of the best looking and performing air pistols you can get. And unlike the SM series, they have better grips and look more 'gun' like. Although you would never be able to actually use the secret shot to fool anyone, it was still a nice feature.
Splitfire: This is hands down the best air pistol you can get stock. It has very good ranges and the ability to fire two shots either separately or together.
#178059 Crossbow Plunger Tube Measurements
Posted by shoeshine5 on 18 September 2008 - 12:28 AM in Modifications
You are correct, I am trying to gather this info for a homemade. My goal is to make a bare-bones gun of similar performance that requires less tools and cutting than the +bow. Consider it a poor mans +bow.
#178056 Crossbow Plunger Tube Measurements
Posted by shoeshine5 on 18 September 2008 - 12:07 AM in Modifications
I am looking for the measurements of the plunger tube of the crossbow. Primarily the length, outer diameter and the inner diameter. I would measure myself, but I do not own one.
My searches yielded no help.
If you have your crossbow open and a caliper handy, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

There used a be a topic of google patent nerf guns, but I think the longshot is far too new to appear publicly.
