#325402 AT3K help

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 17 January 2013 - 08:30 AM in Modifications

Superglue and a quick connect fitting spliced in is the easiest way to do this. Stop trying to use overkill and isten to the advice of andtheherois, the dude kinda knows what he's talking about.



#325198 Gears' Spring Break at Smedley

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 10 January 2013 - 09:35 AM in Nerf Wars

I wanna play nerf guns on a suboptimal field! Count me in!



#324651 Philadelphia Winter Nerf War Dec 22nd DATE CHANGED TO DEC 22nd!

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 21 December 2012 - 06:00 PM in Nerf Wars

I don't know how much nerfing I'ma actually do, but my ass will be there rain, shine, or Gears drizzle.

Hopefully Gears drizzle.



#324406 Philadelphia Winter Nerf War Dec 22nd DATE CHANGED TO DEC 22nd!

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 12 December 2012 - 01:49 PM in Nerf Wars

Hop in the pickup, I'm driving.



#324369 Double Rainbow. What does it mean!?

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 11 December 2012 - 10:39 AM in Homemades

How sturdy is that plunger rod to spring rod bridge? Is there any sort of safety device that prevents it from crashing violently into the ends of the tubes?



#323936 Philadelphia Winter Nerf War Dec 22nd DATE CHANGED TO DEC 22nd!

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 26 November 2012 - 08:57 AM in Nerf Wars

See you all there.



#323062 DCNF#6

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 26 October 2012 - 11:31 AM in Nerf Wars

I'm gonna have to bail on this one as well, unfortunately. I blame the impending hurricane for ruining my nerfing plans.



#322407 NJW10 - 10/20/12

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 10 October 2012 - 08:10 AM in Nerf Wars

Changing my attendance from the 13th to the 20th. I can only make one war due to work wanting me to work one of the next two weekends, and I'd rather not miss a MANL round.



#322174 NJW10 - 10/20/12

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 02 October 2012 - 07:22 PM in Nerf Wars

I am in attendance if it is the weekend of the 13th.



#322041 DCNF#6

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 27 September 2012 - 12:43 PM in Nerf Wars

Five hours in a car just to play nerf guns in the park?

Sure, why not?



#320203 Holsters

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 09 August 2012 - 06:18 AM in General Nerf

Even better for time vs. money is a drill holster, sourced locally at your local Lowes/Home Depot. I paid $15 for one, and they fit Tech Targets, minimized NF's, and similarly sized blasters.



#320164 Philly War 9/1 Smedley Park

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 08 August 2012 - 06:00 PM in Nerf Wars

I will not be able to attend due to me being In Las Vegas.



#320081 Apoc Reaction/Feedback Thread

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 07 August 2012 - 12:54 PM in Nerf Wars

Damn it Langley, I thought no one saw that!

Seriously, this war lived up to my expectations and then some. The rounds were organized, ran smoothly, and were tons of fun. Also, getting out and hanging with fellow nerfers is always fun. The highlight of my day was deathmatch in the forest, where Chops, Jaxon, and I traipsed through the woods to flank the other team and ran the table on them. The only negative thing I have to say about the war was the fact that I had to leave at 3:30, and missed most of the after APOC shenanigans.



#320050 NJW9; A post-Apocalyptic war

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 06 August 2012 - 08:04 PM in Nerf Wars

If only my other plans for Saturday didn't involve the lower half of New Jersey, I'd be totally in for this war.

When all else fails, add on a (sloppily done, just like everything I do) SMDTG to my UMB Raider. Both blasters fill with the bike pump, and there's a check valve so the SMDTG doesn't pop off when the main gun fires. Take note of the Molson Canadian bottle cap, as because all good mod ideas usually come to me while drunk.



#319673 Apoc 2012 Dart Restrictions

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 02 August 2012 - 11:00 AM in Nerf Wars

All darts must be made using a 1/2" diameter 1/8" thick adhesive-backed felt bumper from McMaster-Carr, part#8771K12.
Darts may only be weighted using a single #8 or #6 washer, which must be entirely covered by the felt bumper.


1/8" thick adhesive felt pads are the padding required, the part number listed here is just the green variant. The brown, white, and black are all okay according to this quote.

Also, I have ordered the brown, green, and white felt pads, and have noticed very little difference between the two. The green ones seem to be a little more durable, but still have a propensity to fall apart after extreme use.



#319319 NJW8.5

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 27 July 2012 - 05:28 PM in Nerf Wars

Dry your panties, I'm not gonna be there tomorrow. Family emergency, and I won't be close to home for a few days.



#319024 NJW8.5

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 23 July 2012 - 06:20 AM in Nerf Wars

I will be in attendance, don't get too moist thinking about it.

Also noted, even being drunk is no excuse to not make darts. I've perfected the art of drunken dart making with my latest batch of darts.



#318837 McMaster-Carr Check Valve

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 19 July 2012 - 08:09 PM in General Nerf

I use 7757K41 with all my airguns that have bike pumps, and I've never encountered a leak.



#318273 NJW8 - The APOC pregame

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 10 July 2012 - 11:49 AM in Nerf Wars

Looks like I may have a chance of attending, seeing as my boss Can't Understand Normal Thinking (acronyms kick ass!).



#317774 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 30 June 2012 - 07:35 PM in Modifications

I guess I'm a cool guy now for modding a Sceptor. Still needs some god awful colored tape on the hard tank to complete the look, or maybe I'll wrap it in those shorts behind the thing.

#316946 Philly Area Nerf War, Round Two!

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 13 June 2012 - 06:13 AM in Nerf Wars

Edited: found a way to get that overtime. No dice for LT. DAN...



#316277 NJW7

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 29 May 2012 - 08:08 AM in Nerf Wars

As much as I love to play nerf guns in the park, I'm gonna have to pass on the next few wars. Gotta work that overtime to make my vacation happen.



#315585 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Making Raiders war worthy is the cool thing to do. Stuffed a UMB tank in there, removable barrel, clothes hanger trigger, McMaster OPRV (50265K23).



#314610 NJNO5

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 20 April 2012 - 07:27 PM in Nerf Wars

Damn, Hydro Cannon Kid going almost makes me regret not being able to attend.

Almost.



#313917 Calibrating Oversized Dart Diameter to Barrel ID

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 03 April 2012 - 11:47 AM in Darts and Barrels

I would pay good money to see Chops in an apron cooking up some darts.

On topic, you mentioned that there is a hard, smooth surface formed during the heating process; how hard is the surface?



#313647 Stefan Trouble

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 28 March 2012 - 11:58 AM in Darts and Barrels

Ryan McNumbers posted a comprehensive guide to making slug darts. Follow the guide, you can't go wrong.



#313395 Philly Area April Nerf War

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 23 March 2012 - 11:38 AM in Nerf Wars

I second the whole tired of driving an hour to play nerf guns thingy. I'm in.



#313147 NJNO5

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 19 March 2012 - 06:24 AM in Nerf Wars

A different date would change my attendance from a maybe to a definite, with me leaning more towards the 3rd week.



#312788 NJNO4

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 13 March 2012 - 10:18 AM in Nerf Wars

Those are, in fact, my darts.

I thought I saw someone taking video at the end of a war with an iPhone, but who it was escapes me.



#312611 Do you still use Nerf when you nerf?

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 09 March 2012 - 12:06 PM in Site Feedback

I occasionally use my 2K that I picked up at Apoc 2011 because the damned thing shoots supa hard.



#312548 NJNO5

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 07 March 2012 - 09:08 AM in Nerf Wars

Not looking too good for me to attend this one, but my situation may change in the next few weeks.



#311621 NJNO4

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 22 February 2012 - 09:16 AM in Nerf Wars

Barring an extreme case of laziness, count me in.



#310168 Grid Code Indoor Nerf War in PA

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 26 January 2012 - 04:23 PM in Nerf Wars

Yes. After we build the pillow fort, but before we play flashlight tag.



My mind read this as "fleshlight tag". I'm severely disappointed now.

I like the 19th for this. More time for me to work on blasters.



#307542 NJNO 3

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 19 November 2011 - 06:54 PM in Nerf Wars

I liked playing nerf guns with you guys.



#306859 NJNO 3

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 03 November 2011 - 06:32 AM in Nerf Wars

I'll bring the deep fryer for the turkey!

The 19th is a go for me.



#306182 NJNO 3

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 19 October 2011 - 09:34 AM in Nerf Wars

December nerfing sounds like a hell of a time. Also gives me some more time to tweak my latest blasters and make darts.



#305580 Modification and Paintjob Pictures

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 09 October 2011 - 11:12 AM in Modifications

Because Octoshots are cool. Done the Makeitgo way, with Venom barrel spacers. Still looking for a [k25] for this bad muh-fuh.

Posted Image

Pump replaced BBUMB with McMaster OPRV where the original pump was and quite possibly the sloppiest/lopsided putty work ever. ORPV pops at 35-40 psi.

Posted Image

Last, but not least, rear loading AT2K with 19/32nd brass barrels and Venom spacers. Soon to have an aluminum tank and pump head. Shoots ropes.

#305061 TEPAW 4! Reunion ~ PA war

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 27 September 2011 - 09:30 AM in Nerf Wars

With the date change to the 8th, I'm a no go. I've got a day trip out to Cabelas in Hamburg, PA for a hunting trip the next weekend.



#304891 Homemade Ren Fair Firearms

Posted by LT DAN ICE CREAM on 21 September 2011 - 08:02 AM in Homemades

You guys have some awesome Moderation on these forums.


I'm actually surprised that the moderators haven't jumped in to tear you a new one or to shut down this thread and/or your account.
