Also, 100th post!
Serious edit: It's weird that he would get such specific information right, like Stefan Mohr's name and fact that people (used) to use Crayola barrels, but say strange things about brass tubing. I know some tacti-cool wannabes like to paint their blasters black, but does anyone really use brass or pvc in their darts?

I used a larger, two stroke pump that fills the Titan tank in one in-out cycle.
The front bushing was puttied on in my earlier modding days, so it's not the cleanest, but it still works fine. This is a pretty easy thing to do overall. The Tec-Six trigger is perfect for fitting over the Titan firing pin. You just have to dremel a lot out of the shell. You lose a few screw posts in the process, hence the bolt through the top.

It uses a cpvc plunger rod with a pvc ring catch. Since it doesn't use a rainbow catch, it's not a rainbow-pump. I don't really know what you'd call it. A ring-pump?
Anyway, I just finished this today:
I wanted to make something a little less, shall we say, diddle-y? Something that didn't shoot as far as my other home made. So, I used some left over petg tubing from when I overhauled my Defender (McMaster #9245K41) and nested it inside of 1 1/4" pvc. The front bushing is a 3/4" to 1/2" pvc bushing. The skinnier part fits inside the petg and the fatter end fits inside the pvc, so everything fits nice and snug.
It used 9" of a [k26] spring and has 5" of draw. It shoots pretty far. Still kinda rapey.

There's a hole between the two tanks. Not in your version though.

I used 6.75" of 1.25" PETG tube for the plunger tube, and 7" of [k26] spring. Like Banshee's, mine fires really super hard. It's really scary.

#286007 Kansas Nerf Off- "nerf Sum Igitur"
Posted by Collective on 24 September 2010 - 09:27 PM in Nerf Wars
Seeing as I have no way to make it to this war, I think I'm going to have to pass on this one.
There was a pretty big nerf community in Manhattan when I lived there. But I heard they outlawed it on campus so it must be hard to get anything going. We used to play CTF in Bosco Plaza every Sunday afternoon...
Anyway, I just made two flags. I'm afraid they're not the traditional blue and red. I hope teal and gold is okay. Also, I'm bringing, like, four good loaners. I'm talking titans, sm1.5k's and ss2's.

The date looks fine to me. I'll talk t my nerf buddies (actually it's only "buddy" now because the other one moved to Minnesota) about coming. We were just lamenting the fact that our summer has been depressingly nerf-free...
Count me in.
EDIT: Confirmed with my friend. We're both in.

Nerfing has given me ample opportunity for self-discovery. For example, through modding these two blasters, I've discovered that I'm turret retarded. I flat out ruined the sm1500's turret, and I got half way through messing up the Triple Shot before I realized I was ruining it and gave up. So, now they're just waiting for a wye shipment. Turrets are old news anyway, right?
The sm1500 pump has been replaced by a Hornet pump., and the Triple Shot has had all the vogue mods done to it, including a ls spring addition. Also, to cover the gaping hole left by removing the turret I hand-crafted myself a little cover:
The sm1500 will be getting the same treatment soon.

The LnL is modded a la popatchi, and the Spitfire has a brass breech on both sides for easy loading. They can be pulled out separately or one at a time.

This is really freakin' cool! How are you going to accommodate the bladder inside the Firefly shell? Or will it just be an external kind of thing? I CANNOT wait to see this thing in its final form!

A little pre-war hot dogging.
The hat and the sword make for a formidable ensemble.
Kieth, looking very Kiethly.
A lone bowman.
The dude with the double shot!
Thanks to my buddy Steve for taking these awesome pictures!

The following tells the story of one brave team of Nerfers, thrown into battle with one objective: CAPTURE THE BLUE FLAG!
And what a ragtag team they were.
The enemy team was a savage horde of battle hardened thugs.
They immediately brought their full strength to bare, grunting unintelligible threats and wielding swords of questionable legality.
However our heroes stood strong, resisting even as wave after wave of foam broke against their defenses.
Suddenly the unthinkable happened! A hole broke in the enemy advance, and the defenders quickly became the attackers!
But the enemy had saved their most terrible instrument for just such an occasion. He took careful aim with his trusty bow and fired.
Whoosh! The shot barely missed one of the advancing hero's right ear as he threw himself wildly to the left to avoid the shot.
And, with the rest of the enemy team either waiting to respawn or stuck reloading, the heroes were able to capture the blue flag, and all the glory that came with it!

+Being the last man on my team and taking out the rest of the other team to win the round.
+CTF rounds on the slippery ground.
+The formation of the DUEL RAIDER MEGAZORD.
+Blasters holding up very well.
+Having a lot of people and a great playing field.
-Everything getting wet.
-Not painting my darts enough to see them in the snow.
Overall the weather could have been a lot worse. I'll get the pictures that Steve took and post them soon.
