Sweet! All I have to do is go to Home Depot and find my dad's wire cutters. I am not gonna be able to get the stuff for a while because today I start school.I do this as well. I go as far as actually funneling the PVC in addition to the barrel material. In the below pic, the PVC was funneled by twisting wire cutters into the end (the sides are sharp enough to shave the PVC) and the brass was flared with the same thing except it more bent the brass then removed material.As for funneling. I think I'm the only one that actually does that. But I've found that it is a simple and effective mod. It gives a much smoother transition into the barrel, reduces the turbulence at that point as it does not create any backpressure. And it makes it that much easier to load a dart. It I think is a very important step when doing the RSCB because it also helps direct the dart.
I've never used an RSCB without a barrel like this, so I'm not sure how much it helps. All I know is that my RSCB's rarely jam.

I have two and a half wraps of e-tape and it engages the OVPR on mine. I don't like to pump it ten times because the last time the endcap flew and hit my eye. It was pretty funny, but hurt a little.Pumping seven times won't even engage my OPRV. Maybe your pump count is the problem. Also, BBBB's have terrible o-rings. You have to pump them more than if the seal was normal.

I am using pvc, the rear part is six in., the barrel is twelve in., I am pumping it seven times, the shot is pretty consistent, the first dart will shoot at shoulder level.ok. Time for some more fact finding.
1. What is the lenght of the rear part of the rscb? What material are you using?
2. what is the lenght of the actual barrel itself. (the front peice)
3. how many times are you pumping and are you consistant with that # with each shot?
4. Rather then a target that is only 40% of your maximum expected range How much difference is there when the darts are allowed to fly their full distance? I would expect gradual decreases in range as you cycle thru the clip.
And yes a picture might help.

With the mag full the dart shoots at shoulder level. My barrel material is OMC thickwall petg. I have some pics on my bbbb if that will help. Also I don't think I have posted this before.Have you posted this somewhere before? I'm getting a sense of Dejavu. (and not the club)
Gonna need more info then this. Are all your shots crappy? What are you using for barrel material?
Got any pics of the setup?

I always do.Did you flick it down prior to firing? I know someone's going to say that it shot so little because of the dead space in the empty clip, but my RSCB'd Pullshotty fires further at the end of the clip, than the beginning.

Okay, so made an RSCB for my big blast. I shot a dart with the mag/clip empty and it hit the bottom of a forty foot wall away. What is the problem? This thing is pissing me off.

My big blast with an RSCB. The big blast has a cpvc and pvc coupler system thing.
My cpvc couplered nightfinder with a dtb and lsfb spring additions.
Edit: Really, was that so damn hard?

That is one of my problems, I can't get e-tape under the o ring. The e-tape slips off.
Are you making sure to wipe all of the excess lubricant from the plunger head before applying the e-tape? Also, make sure you stretch it very tightly, and don't use e-tape that is several years old.
Have you wrapped tape around the front of the plunger tube where the two caps that made up part of the AR? You could be loosing air there.
When you dry fire the gun with the barrel plugged the plunger rod should stop or at least slow down a great deal. If it doesn't and you have a good seal between the plunger head and plunger tube, use hot glue, e-tape, and goop to ensure that all cracks and crevices are completely sealed.
I have wrapped e-tape on the two caps. My e-tape is new and how does stretching e-tape help? When I plug the barrel it slows down a ton.

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.
Oops double post.

Hipponator: The blaster sounds a little bit slower. I can't get a longer barrel because I am out of cpvc and when I tried my old Home Depot foam and nothing really changed.
TKRNM: The shorter barrel decreased the ranges and the tighter darts went farther.

Hipponator: I am using mile high foam which is a nice fit. The o ring is a bit of a squeeze. I thought it was my first post for random reasons.

My singled longshot. This took me a while to do becuause of my stupidity. It took me about two months because I would get mad and leave it for like a week. This blaster gets about 70-80ft ranges flat.

I have never seen brass at any hardware store in my life. I once tried almost the same thing with petg and the dart would barely leave the barrel.I would just like to know how you get 50-60 foot ranges and where you get brass?
All i did is what you see in the write-up. I've got brass at Ace, and True Value, but the best place to look is a hobby shop.

Use a but load of super glue. When I changed my dtb's spring I snapped the plunger rod on accident. Then I got my dad to super glue it.Very clean. I would just reinforce the plunger rod because I did this to an old DTB and the plunger snapped on me.

How does that hurt the ranges? If it does I know why my petg'd dtb only goes 40ft. The dtb has only an nf and lsfg srping.Last time I cut out the AR's ( which was like a year ago ) the DTB's ranges went down the toilet. You have to be very careful when doing that step. I'll try to get through them today. Hopefully it will be done by tomorrow.
