My father and I have been working some time on an effective bb full auto and a similiar design that incorporates some type of nerf projectile, which appears to be reusable paintballs at this point. The deisgn is based of the m19a larc, a very simple,continous air gun that used bb's at the bottom of a clip to be essentially spit out at ~400 FPS. You may have also seen the recent strafer design that is a rip off of the larc only using compressed air instead of freon, although compressed air adaptors were common for the larc. Thirst among many others have been working in parralell to discover an effective design that's simple enough to be made in a basement. Anyone have any other design ideas they're like to share? Maybe using leaf blowers?

I'm in the market for an admin to run my site. The project is called nerfhub and The sites format is already solidified with forums, shoutbox, and a great flash "Nerfhub" presentation all put forth by Taita Cakes. I've been the sole funder of this project and will continue to fund it, but I've rezlized that my technical expertise is far behing what being an Admin requires an the time I have available to me is limited also. Instead I want to devote myself to writing various articles and continuing to add to my collection of reviews of eccentric and rare toys. Does anyone know of a good hosting site where I could use a template to make a reviews database as well as a mods section etc.?
#43507 Common Types Of Fbr Brand Names

Homemades
I am starting to collect data to streamline the needed amount of research for selecting barrel types given a certain type of foam backing rod. I know of loghelp(grey) shortshit's pink stuff(similiar in size to grey) and Denis' Comfort Seal that you can buy at aco(black). Also if anyone can find approximate barrel nominals that would also be helpful. 1/2" PETG is .53(grey) 17/32 brass is about .53(grey) 9/16 brass is about .56(Comfort Seal) 19/32 is then .59. These brass nominals I just figured by doing simple division,but if anyone knows of anymore accuracte measures, be sure to tell me.
edit: I've recently figured out the nominals for all brass and copper, but I need knowledge of what brands of FBR fit in what types of barrels and that barrel nominal.

#37047 Constant Pressure System
Posted by
on 12 September 2004 - 04:13 PM
in
Homemades
As Vintage posted on the open nerf forums, in order to maintain enough pressure for a semi or fully auto nerf gun, we need a cps. There are several candidates for this, including layed bicyle tubing and rubber hose and washer hose. Unlike hard tanks that release a great deal of air in one spirt, a "soft" flexible tank enables air to be released over time, becoming less efficient as the air has to operate the mechanism for more time. Has anyone experimented w/ this design yet?

If you embed the bike pump into pvc then you want a check valve, otherwise it doesn't hold any air. A tire pump valve(schrader valve) works as a check valve within itself, elimininating the need for a check valve.

I'd just take my FBR or stock darts to the harware sote an see what fits. 1/2" copper many seem to fit but it really doesn't fit too well on any fbr I've tried. If you're asking about material, they are equivalent, only brass comes in precise sizes that fit FBR darts. Some people claimed to have found some rare 1/2" copper with .53 nominals which fits the log-fbr stuff really well.
#62668 Thoughts On The New Xm8 Assault Rifle?
Posted by

Off Topic
The XM8 appears to be a great rifle in its ability to be quickly converted to just about any type of weapon. The recoil shouldn't be bad and the weapon itself is quite light. They do say that it's ability to fire high volumes of rounds is unproven and that the saw does well in that area. The barrels can be removed quickly as just about any other part of the weapon can from its modular design.
Through all these neat features still lies a clone of a G36, basically the design itself is no engineering marvel from the respect that there is still a firing pin and it is still gas operated. I read on NHQ from boltsniper stating that the AR has better accuracy because of its gas piston? I just want to hear people's thoughts on the possible switch.

The rifle itself is deisgned by HKUSA. Its still foreign, but I wouldn't think we'd risk our nations sovereinty by choosing the XM8 the M4. Isn't this system supposed to be easier to maintain vs. the M4? I suppose the M4 already has these capabilites considering that we have commando,loser, and support variations of the M4. Now what would you think of the military switching to .308 for their main rifles vs the .223 Remington? I read the reasoning for such a hot, flat shooting caliber but with the M4 a three shot burst/semi rifle only, do we still need that ability to carry more .223 than .308?
#52028 Objective Statistics On N-strike Line

General Nerf
The testing inlvolved multiple tests of each gun on multiple days (4 titans) (3 Hornets) (2NF's) (6mavs)(4 scouts).
Here are the ranges(stock):
Titan 126 feet maximum; 87 feet semi-flat
Hornet: 53 feet maximum; 41 feet semi-flat
Scout: 46 feet maximum; 37 semi flat
Nitefinder: 56 feet maximum; 42 semi-flat
Maverick: 47 feet maximum; 36 feet semi- flat.
This pretty much clears up the confusion over what a stock nerf gun gets when pointed at a 45 degree angle, but fails to show an accurate flat range since the ratios of flat to angled aren't nearly as great as they should, suggesting an error in what I perceived as the gun pointed parallel to the ground.
The standard micro shooters don't deviate much in range suggesting a tight ceiling imposed by nerf on the basis of Kenetic Energy Density of the projectile.
For those of you wondering why I still use angled ranges, it is because nerf toys are very irregular in shape usually and its hard to tell when you are perfectly flat, whereas shooting at an approximate 45 degree angle can be calcuated simply by observing the optimum distance vs. the angle of the pointed gun.
I was very surprised with the scout, which I thought to be half as powerful as the rest perfom average in range tests after many on the forums made the mav out to shoot 2x as far as the scout. This erroneous interpretation is probably due to the "awe" that ensues the maverick and the inflation of its ranges compared to other N-Strike guns.
