Again, great mod and the paint job is sick to.
Oh by the way, do you still have that stock Mega Missile that you said you'd sell me for 6 bucks? I'll bring 6 bucks to school tomorrow if you bring the gun. I'll just sneak it in my backpack before science class starts haha.

Actually, if you wanna be technical, Liam won. Look really really closely at his final score. Im pretty sure 3300 would win anything.
Hey, Paul, AWESOME on winning this thing.

#245597 At3k Question - Plugged Pump, Remove Goo Gauge?
Posted by

Modifications
An easy way to remove it without fiddling with the tubing is cutting the top portion off with a hacksaw and sealing the stub with hot glue and a dash of goop.
I ended up doing something along those lines. I unscrewed the two halves of the gauge, drained the liquid, filled the clear plastic cavity with hot glue, covered the hole connecting the tubing to the gauge with Amazing Goop and a SSPB trigger on top (to set the glue). Than I put the original rubber sealing disk on top of the sealed hole and screwed the upper half back on, making the goo gauge 100% cut off from the rest of the gun, deeming it virtually gone. I did this because I didn't have any vinyl tube connections on hand.

So you're asking whether you HAVE to remove the goo gauge? I know you do on a 2K, but on a 3k I'm clueless.
I'm asking if it is RECOMMENDED, as in, if I don't remove the goo gauge, will it break because of the pressure with a plugged pump?

If the plug is pumped on my AT3k, is it recommended that I plug/remove the goo gauge as well? Now I know removing the gauge won't increase the guns power (this I did find out from searching), but I don't want the risk of the goo gauge rupturing under the pressure of a plugged pump.
Now, as previously stated I HAVE THOROUGHLY SEARCHED THESE FORUMS for the answer to my question, so don't be the dick who posts a reply to this such as:
"It's called the SEARCH function, see, that thing in the top right?"
OR
"You could have just looked here ("here" being a link) instead of starting a thread"
If you know the answer to my question, please answer it. If you do not know the answer, than obviously don't answer it. The End.
Thank you.

Also, I wouldn't suggest buying those shitty little cutoff wheels (the ones that are less than a milimeter thick) as they break too easily and quickly become an annoying safety hazard.

Well, the ones Im using are very thin, but they are the ones that came with the dremel. Should I buy thicker ones?

For future times, I wouldn't use your dremel at the 30k setting. At that setting the thing scares me from how fast it's going.
I agree completely, I was just in a hurry, and when its at 30k, I feel like it's gonna jump up and kill me.

Do dremels normally go spin that quickly? mine only goes to 10k RPMs and I can actually touch every bit while it is spinning at that speed and it doesn't hurt at all. But anyway, good message to give to people.
Yes they do go up to 30k RPM, and it is quite fast.

I'm gonna go to both sides.
Hey! Idiot modders on the NIC, listen up! Don't fucking do stupid shit! Wear some fucking goggles when you use your dremel. Something is almost guaranteed to fly into your eye if you don't.
As for you, Liam, any pain you've been inflicted, as well as medical bills and loss of sight, is your own, damn fault. It says on the dremel to wear goggles. It says on the box. Further, everyone says, "Wear goggles when using tools." So thanks for being the example to set for everyone.
Do not act like an asshole. I assure you that I have had copiously larger amounts of modding experience than you have. I DO USUALLY WEAR eye protection, this was a simple act of forgetfulness, I am no where near an "idiot modder." Also, do not tell me that all of your mods have gone smoothly and you have simply never even slightly injured yourself. This thread is to make people further aware of accident probability, more than just the tiny little label on the tool.

Bummer. Maybe next time read the instructions. You know where it says "WEAR EYE PROTECTION". Yeah. it actually means it.

I don't care if this isn't "contributing to the NIC" but I believe it must be said, and will give many people a heads up.
I just got back from the hospital because I had been using a dremel to cut something off of my longshot. being stupid I was not WEARING EYE PROTECTION. As I began to dremel off the top rail, a piece of sharp, hot, plastic, flung at me and hit me square in the eye, while the dremel was on it's 30k RPM setting. Luckily I am expected to be okay, but I can not see out of my left eye, and my vision is predicted to not come back for a few days.
Everybody, these accidents CAN HAPPEN TO YOU.
Use eye protection, and wear any other protective gear you can while modding.
This little hobby of ours can be dangerous, and I highly suggest that everybody take this post of mine into consideration.
Off topic: I just realized, it's my 2 year birthday here. What a great way to celebrate it...

How come Nerf Wars are so inconveniently timed that people seem to miss them like; I am going to be moving to California, so I am going to miss DAFT. The really stupid thing is, is that we are going to Arkansas the Wisconsin and a bunch of other places so I am also going to miss Armageddon i mean its so totally OH MY GOD. I hate that i will have to wait till next year to do a Nerf War.
Uhmmm, this is pointless. It shouldn't be in the mods thread. This is just a stroke of bad luck, and probably doesn't apply to everyone else.

This is a very easy to understand write up. And very good.
I like your simple breach idea. How airtight is it? And how hard is it to slide the 1/2in PVC cover?
Thank you very much. And the breech is very simple to slide. After I added a sufficient amount of tape to create a good seal, I used rubber safe lubricant on the internal barrel section, and it slides very easily without coming out of place (when the breech is closed) or losing its seal.

First, take about 13in of 1/2in PVC and cut your breech slot about 3 inches from the back.
Now take your 12in piece of brass or other preferred barrel material that can easily fit into 1/2 PVC. I used this mystery metal barrel that I broke off of a Williamsburg toy musket. It fits stock darts and my stefans perfectly. Anyways, take this 12in section of barrel, and glue a 1in section of 1/2in PVC on to one end.
Now take a 1/2in PVC coupler and put it onto the end of 1in PVC that you just glued onto your barrel.
Now take your 13in section of PVC that you cut the breech slot into, and hammer a 1/2in section of 1/2in CPVC into the short end. This piece of CPVC stops the inside barrel from moving to far back, and prevents darts from falling out, or whatever the hell that can happen back there.
Now take your inside barrel (the 12in of brass or whatever) and line it up with the outer PVC section. Tape two sections on your inside barrel as shown in the picture below. Use enough tape to create a good seal.
Now put the two barrel pieces together. Lube the inside barrel as much as necessary to create ease of opening and closing.
Heres the finished breech.
Heres the breech open. To open, simply pull on the PVC coupler at the front.
Heres the breech closed. To close, simply push on the PVC coupler until the taped internal barrel seals with the end of the 1/2in PVC external barrel.
Heres the breech with a dart loaded.
To attach the breech to the LBB, simply twist it into the guns coupler that you glued on earlier. Obviously, since the LBB has a coupler, it can also accept a wide variety of attachments.
Here is the final product.
And that's it. I personally found this mod to be quite simple. And hell, if you mess it up, the guns only $10, no big deal. This is my FAVORITE primary, and it gets amazing ranges with amazing accuracy.
Range: Around 110'-130' flat
Perfect Accuracy Range: Accurate at about 100' to 120'

This will be a full instructional guide on how to do the following mods to your LBB.
Materials needed:
-Aprox. 15in of 1/2in PVC
-(2) 1/2 in PVC coupler
-1/2in of 1/2in CPVC
-12 in of brass (or any barrel material that can easily fit inside of 1/2 PVC)
-Hot Glue
-Super Glue
-Any other preferred adhesives
-1/16in foam sheet
-Dremel
-Dremel: Sanding Bit
-Dremel: Cutting wheel bit
-Lanard Blast Bazooka
-Screwdriver
-Electrical Tape
-Rubber Safe (In this cape, e-tape safe) lubricant
That should be all...let's get started. First, buy a LBB. This is the best stock picture I can get you, since I took all of these pictures after modification.
Now I do not have a picture for the next step, but the next step is to open up the gun, and cut off the stock orange barrel about 1/3in away from the lip of the air tank. Now, lets assume that you did this step, and then closed your gun back up.
Now, Cut where the line is shown. If you are looking at your gun from the inside, your cut should line up with the wall separating the front empty shell piece, from the section with the internals.
Now, your gun should look like this. (this picture was taken without the internals inside, so don't mind the absence of the pump and the trigger.)
Open your gun back up (if not already opened) and pull out the air tank. It should come out as one piece with the pump and the trigger. Once you have your tank out of the shell, glue a 1/2in PVC coupler to the tank. Center it as best as you can, so that the stub from where you cut off the original barrel, is seen down the center of the coupler. Use hot glue and super glue or whatever the hell you want, until your satisfied that the coupler ain't coming off.
In order to get the internals to fit back into the gun, you have to sand out the center wall on the inside, that used to surround the stock barrel. Do this to both sides.
First half (Ignore the red foam for now)
Second Half (Once again, ignore the red foam for now)
Now, your internals should fit perfectly, and the coupler should sit nice and happy inside the are where you just sanded off the wall.
Now, we move on to plugging the pump. To do this, you must carefully use your dremel to cut off the end of the gray piece that holds the pump in the plunger tube. When you make this cut, make sure that the plunger head is pushed all the way into the plunger tube so that you don't risk cutting into it. This picture should help.
After you make that cut, you should be able to pull the pump all the way out, and get access to the over pressure release valve.
Now, plug the OVP with hotglue. To do this, you must fill the CENTER hole on the plunger head (NOT THE TWO SIDE ONES), and the 4 holes on the side of the shaft.
Front:
Side:
The last internal step, is to glue the trigger to the air tank pin. The lbb is known for its weak trigger, and glueing the trigger to the pin reduces stress on the part of the trigger that frequently breaks, and balances the stress on the entire trigger. MAKE SURE NOT TO GLUE THE PIN OR THE TRIGGER TO THE TANK
Now your internals should fit nice and cleanly back into place. We are now done with internal mods.
After you close the gun up, their will be a rectangular hole left from where you sanded down the internal wall to fit the coupler in place. To cover up this hole. I cut a piece of 1/8in foam sheet to the shape of the front of the lbb, and simply glued it onto the outer ring of the shell. Then, I cut a slit down the center with an exacto knife so that the gun could be opened without tearing the foam. This picture should explain.

Yes, just be careful with the hot glue, the heat can damage the PETG. And maybe you can add a breech.
Yeah, the hot glue, especially on a high heat setting, will probably warp the petg, but only at the bottom. Maybe you could just add a piece of 1/2in PVC around the bottom of the petg before you add hot glue.
