Awesome guys. I hope they can delete the site soon. The spammers were posting random links (which thankfully I didn't click) and the site is just dead, as you said. Also, what about this site : http://canadiannerfers.fr.yuku.com/ ?
Not gonna lie, didn't even know all this shit happened. Been out too long to hear of the demise of the original site, but it's nice to see all my shit got transferred. That site will do for organizing what we need to for the time being.

FA_24 is pretty much retired, Hell before Halloween was the last war he will host, unless something spectacular happens in the GTA. The scene in Canada is pretty much dead, out native site went down late last year and nobody really cares enough to do anything about it, going several weeks without a new post will do that though.
We aren't all dead. If V7 or anything like that pops up I am so in. I need to get out again.

You're avoiding my question. You said "opening" people up.People here use slingshot weights and we are fine with them as well.
What does that mean? Is that Canadian for, "I'm ignorant", or did I miss something?
...Cutting people open? Wounding? Drawing blood? As long as the darts don't break skin we Canadians really don't give a flying fuck.
I'm in. There's no way I'm missing it this time.
#269526 A New Petg Breech

Breech closed:
You're done motherfucker!
Pros:
- Lighter than an all-brass breech.
- Very sturdy.
- Can be glued on to any blaster or placed in a PVC coupler.
- Simple, so pretty much anyone can make it.
- Cheaper than an all-brass breech (1' of 5/8 brass=6 of these breeches)
- PETG, so you can tell if there's a dart in the barrel.
- Pretty damn sexy if it's clean (Though mine is not)
Con:
- Even with the tightening rings, a TINY amount of air escapes between the PETG and the brass. There isn't any noticeable decrease in range, though I know it's still going to do something.
PS. I really want a new camera.

What you will need:
- PETG from OMC (Length depends on what blaster you plan on using it in)
- 1/2" Sch. 40 PVC (Same length as your PETG)
- 2" of 5/8" brass
- A 1/2" PVC coupler
- Adhesive of your choice (I used good ol' Goop and Fishin' glue)
- Electrical tape
- Pipe cutters
- A hobby knife
- A rotary tool
- A cutting wheel for said rotary tool, strong enough to cut brass
- A 5/8" diameter grinding wheel, also for the rotary tool
- A rubber mallet
- Sandpaper (To make your cuts smooth)
- Needlenose pliers )Optional, but extremely useful)
- Measuring tape
- Sharpie to mark where you plan on cutting
Measure 1.5" down from one end of your PVC pipe. Take your Sharpie and put a dot on the 1.5" mark. From that point, measure out 2" or so (Slightly longer than your Stefans). Draw a line along the 2" and trace out the rest of the half-pipe:
Bust out your rotary tool (Or what ever you use to cut) and cut along the lines. Try to clean it up with a hobby knife and sandpaper:
Now, take that piece of 5/8" brass and measure 1.5". Mark it down and then put another dot about 1/2" ahead of it:
Take your pipe cutters and put two or three tightening rings in the 1/5" piece. Be careful, and check the fit on the PETG often. You want it to have a good seal, but you also want to easily pull it out as well. Once you're done, put a very light ring around the 1/2" long piece:
Cut where you marked:
Take the 5/8" grinding/sanding wheel and sand out the PVC ALMOST up to the half-pipe. Be very careful and try not to make the hole too wide:
Take your rubber mallet and hammer it in until the brass is almost flush with the PVC. Be sure to use a rubber mallet, or else the brass will deform when you hammer it:
If you have made it this far, awesomesauce work. Now we're going to go to the other side of your PVC pipe. Cut about 2" off that end with your pipecutters:
Get your mallet again and hammer the PVC completely through the PVC coupler. An alternative would be to just sand out the ring in the middle of the coupler, but I was lazy:
Take your e-tape and wrap it around one end of your PETG. Apply Goop and put your PVC+coupler over it:
Leave it to dry.
Once again, go to the side opposite the half-pipe. This time, use your 5/8" wheel and sand about 1/4" in:
Place the 1/2" long piece of 5/8" brass in:
Get your mallet and hammer it flush with the PVC. This will keep the PETG barrel from flying out when the breech is opened:
Take your two parts and put them together:

Tank is confirmed, and I'm going to see if I can get a few friends to tag along. Aside from SGM and CNP, are there any Americans thinking about coming up to this? 1337 doesn't count, as he just unconfirmed on Canadian Nerfers.
PS. How many cases of VanCo do you think you'll be able to fit in the trunk of your vehicle, my West Virginian friends?

#242154 Sm1500 Turret Improvements
Posted by

Nicely done. I made my 1.5k turret rear loading, but it's much worse than what you have, partially due to the previous owner fubar'ing it and leaving me with not much to work with.
I especially like the FBR + goop method of sealing. I had to work with hot glue and a metal plate + lubricant ala FA's Doomsayer, and if I'd taken a risk and hotglued my barrels temporarily on (couldn't do the etape deal on account of the stock barrels cut off), the whole thing would probably have been much easier.
The FBR is just there to keep the Goop from going inside the barrel. It works really well. This was actually really easy to do, so if you have another 1500 turret or a 2K turret then try it out.
Lovely! Could this possibly be done with a 2K turret? I've had one laying around for months thats in desperate need of some PETG rebarreling.
I have a friend who owns a SM1.5K that i've been meaning to take off his hands. This will definitely be done once i get it, nice job.
I'm 70% done a 2K turret. That will be posted whenever I get off my ass and finish it.
Oh, and thanks guys. There will be more one of these days.

How do you rear load it if the shell is in the way? Or is for an integration of some sort?
This one is being integrated. If you're planning on keeping it in the shell, just drop a Sharpie down one of the side barrels and drill a hole.
Hardshot: This is 'Roids (It's new name?). I'm turning it into something a little more powerful.

The two goals were to make 1500 turrets rear-loading, and to have absolutely no air loss in the turret.
Materials needed:
- 1500 turret.
- 1/2" drill bit or a Dremel bit of the same size.
- Barrel material of your choice.
- Some sort of rubber washer (I just cut down an EaB plunger head, but whatev)
- Adhesive of your choice.
- Glue gun.
- Hot glue sticks.
- E-tape.
- Claw hammer or flathead screwdriver. If it pries, it'll work.
Let's get to the mod, shall we?
Pry apart the turret. A pic really ain't needed, just pry at the spring rest:
Bust out yo' 1/2" drill (Or rotary tool!) bit and drill out the barrels. Make the holes as centered as possible. I cleaned it up with a hobby knife after this pic was taken:
Take the other half of the turret and drill out holes with the same 1/2" bit. I ended up using a 5/8" Dremel bit for this, so it's cleaner and easier to load:
Now take four sections of your barrel material of choice and wrap E-tape about 1" from one side. Stuff them in the 1500's barrels and make sure they're flush with the back end:
If your barrels don't fall out when they're turned upside down then you know you have put on enough E-tape. If they fall out, wrap more on until the fit is nice and snug.
Shove FBR (Or something of the like) in the barrels and apply Goop (Or whatever adhesive you use):
Once the glue is dried, remove the FBR and fill in empty space with hot glue. Once that is dry, cut it flush with your barrels:
Now, take the other half of the turret and sand down the rotation mech piece. Once the metal rod and spring are back in place and the turret is reassembled it will be nice and centered, so don't worry about it wobbling at all:
Take your adhesive of choice (I used Goop, which seemed to work out beautifully) and glue one side of your rubber washer/sheet with hole in it/ EaB plunger head. As long as it seals with the other half of the turret and can rotate well, it'll work:
Once the glue is dried, lube up the rubber piece (So the turret can rotate better), close up the turret and you're done!
Glue is drying at the moment, but just by putting the turret together, plugging one end and blowing down the other I can see a major improvement in the seal. By major improvement, I mean airtight or damn close to it.
Best of all, IT'S REAR-LOADING! I'll have a pic of the finished product and ranges up whenever I'm not feeling so lazy. This is being integrated into something Effeminate, and I'm not sure when I will unveil it.
... Motherfuckers.

Nice pictures. Your grandfather has a nice camera. Applefury, when was the picture of you dancing taken?
After you left, the people going to APOC decided to get some dodging practice in. Basically one of the people going stands about 50' from everyone else and has to dodge everything they shoot at them.
Duffy, and I are both definite, Apple is a maybe. That pic was taken as he dodged a dart.

Like Keanu, with Down's Syndrome.
You can open up a dance studio, Apple.
I honestly cannot believe we won that round.
Duffy trying (and probably failing) to dodge.

+ Kicking ass.
+ Taking names.
+ Wingman with Duffy. We diddled, as usual. Tag Team champions baby!
+ Getting numerous headshots with my 1500.
+ Shooting chicken out of the Mongo Titan. There's a really good pic of it too.
+ Talking shit about Split and Langley with everyone else.
+ Duffy's funny ass stories at lunch.
+ Pumping my 1500 so angrily that the pump broke.
+ Dodging practice, and being really good at it.
+ HeadHunters. Basically it's Team Deathmatch, but only headshots count. A big kick in the face to all you pussies out there.
+ Getting a feel for my 1500 and taking mental notes on what to improve. Those of you going to APOC are fucked.
+ A second Wingman round with Apple, in which we somehow won. I guess I am an alright Nerfer.
+ Seeing some bright new faces and the new face of Duffy.
+ Getting 250' of foam for $30. Good ol' APOC discount, thanks Duffy!
+ Realizing how soft and squishy Hardshot was. You have quite the welt collection from my 1500 don't you?
+ Rocking the zombies round.
+ Sprinting around in combat boots.
+ The shitty weather stopping shortly after the war started.
+ Some awesome pics. I'll post them up later.
+ The art of deception. During the tagteam with Duffy, I was shot by Apple and had cleared near the edge of the field. He thought I was out but I was actually on my last life. While he was firing at Duffy, I flanked him and picked him off.
You're right, it's too powerful. It unbalances the game, and no one else has any fun. Obviously it's too good for it's time.DeadDumpster though, is your sm1500 on steroids? I have 3 fucking welts from that bitch.
Let's ban it.

+ Getting a Sharpshooter I from FA, a Titan from Joey, and most of Joey's box of goods.
+ Getting this great shot on Tank with a Big Blast. He was up on the jungle gym, so I angled it and it fluttered right to him.
+ Going to Burger King, getting food for MSDFS and K9, but not eating anything?
+ Being the last man standing during zombies. The K9 Special pisses away darts like crazy, but with another spring it could easily take on Doomsayer.
+ Going one-on-one with FA, and winning with a shot to his eye protection.
+ Being a brute with my Big Blast, like running by Dude13 and shooting him pretty much point-blank.
+ Missing SGM whilst laughing about his accent.
+ Having pics, I'll post them up when I get home.
+ The crack pipe.
+ My guns suddenly shooting further than they had at home (Except my NF)
+ Throwing my NF against a tree repeatedly.
+ FA and I raping everyone else during Wingman. Y'all got destroyed!
+ The CTF taking a while, but we won by a longshot (No, not the POS gun)
+ Applefury's yellow Angel Breeched LS.
+ Seeing how much different everyone played as people left.
+ Testing out VIP. It's was fun, but it would be better with more people.
+ K9 and his Marvelous Salvo bandaged to his arm.
+ Getting so many headshots on FA it's... actually kinda funny.
+ The rain seemed to make our guns shoot far, but there was no fucking accuracy unless you've got a Big Blast.
+ Running out of darts and all of us relying on dart sweeps to get more.
+ Tank and FA taking a lot of painful shots from me.
+ FA having more lives than me, and him taking point.
I'll edit this post as I think of more. This was definitely a good warm-up for APOC.

Ok guys. Weather network is saying 80% chance of light rain, 5-10mm. Im hoping this plays out like HbH2, where rain is forcasted, but none actually happens. I will be bringing an umbrellla just in case.
Dude13: I think we should PM all the maybes. Crooked is one I have heard from Dumpster.
I just said I want him to go. I miss him. I don't think he is though.
Tank is pretty much a definite though.
EDIT: I just spoke with Crooked, he's in Quebec. I can't believe he's hanging out with a bunch of Frenchmen!
