#102739 I Need More Gun Mods !

Posted by zxnam on 28 April 2007 - 09:06 AM in Modifications

What kind of springs should i be using and for which gun
diameter?
Length?
Where can i get them ?
What about stretching springs how does that work?

1. Some of the guns are airpowered and do not need springs, I would suggest bring the springs to Ace Hardware to compare to others.
2. Same as 1.
3. Well longer is better because you can always trim the spring to be shorter.
4. Ace Hardware or McMaster online.
5. You grab the two ends and stretch it until it is longer. It will temporalily make it stronger but it will weaken the spring in the long term.



#102769 Air Tech 3000 In A Ls

Posted by zxnam on 28 April 2007 - 12:33 PM in Modifications

I wouldn't suggest doing that to your longshot unless it has already been scrapped. It would be a waste of money when you could just use a stock AT3K.



#102774 My Maverick Mod.

Posted by zxnam on 28 April 2007 - 01:11 PM in Modifications

Yes, you can just take out the air restrictors, but i highly recommend that you leave them in unless you do a barrel replacement, I have learned from experience.

I think this is what you are looking for. Picture guide



#102941 Clip Fed Maverick

Posted by zxnam on 29 April 2007 - 10:06 AM in Modifications

I really dont see the point of this.... I mean its already a 6 shot AUTO ADVANCE, if you were to make it clip fed it would be very very hard to make it auto advance. If you want something new make a chain fed mav.

If you want faster reload time glue on the turret and cut off the front. More explanation later.

#103424 Crossfire

Posted by zxnam on 01 May 2007 - 05:14 PM in Modifications

I started this mod but then decided i should do a write up.

1. Open up gun(self explanatory)

2. Time to cut, Cut the middle part out, leave either side.

No need for this piece anymore

3. Glue a 5" piece of Cpvc onto the plunger, super glue with epoxy over it was best for me.

4. Dremel down this piece until the Cpvc fits

5. Here is the new plunger assembly:

6. Now put it back together, And you are done! Internals:

I painted it also, i still need to get the barrel but i like it so far,

Ranges: about 55' flat with taggers.

I realize some of the pics are big and some are small, this is my first experience with online photo posting, I will try to fix it, does anyone know why it wont let me resize some of the pics?

#103831 Your Weapon Setup.

Posted by zxnam on 03 May 2007 - 08:24 PM in Off Topic

I am indoors for most of my wars so...

#104578 Modding A A Crossfire, Help Plz

Posted by zxnam on 08 May 2007 - 06:12 PM in Modifications

Do you use taggers or stephans, taggers fire better in cpvc than stephans, in my experience anyways.

#105570 Glock Style Crossfire

Posted by zxnam on 14 May 2007 - 09:19 PM in Modifications

60-70, for the most stinging pain about 1 foot.



I am going to have to say that those are a little high, my barrel modded crossfire can only hit about 60.



#105689 Switch Shots Ultra Mod

Posted by zxnam on 15 May 2007 - 04:22 PM in Modifications

I dont understand why nerf makes a fake air tank!


I am quite sure that that was used for water so if I am correct that bottle isn't doing anything for the gun, please correct me if I am wrong though.



#106493 Crossfire Questions

Posted by zxnam on 19 May 2007 - 12:29 PM in Modifications

I have not been able to get it to stay on for a long period of time but..... i attached a nf plunger rod to the cf plunger. I bought this stuff called Power poxy to attach them for good, its specifically for plastic.

I have not been able to get it to stay on for a long period of time.




#107324 Crossfire Mod

Posted by zxnam on 23 May 2007 - 07:11 PM in Modifications

I just drilled and dremeled till the sucker could come out. You Mainly just need the air flow restricting piece out, but I took out the all the pieces.



#107331 Crossfire Mod For A Noob?

Posted by zxnam on 23 May 2007 - 07:53 PM in Modifications

It shouldn't affect it, you just need to be able to shut it.



#107335 Any Experience?

Posted by zxnam on 23 May 2007 - 08:00 PM in General Nerf

From Here, it sounds like a push pull, basically nothin' to be excited for.



#107478 Glue

Posted by zxnam on 24 May 2007 - 08:52 PM in Modifications

You could superglue it, then pour on some goop.

#109397 Stats 10 Dart Blaster

Posted by zxnam on 04 June 2007 - 04:20 PM in General Nerf

I'm quite sure thats a tek 10 from buzzbee, I have the tek 6 modded, its better than the mav modded but the tek 6 is a bitch to mod.



#109468 Secret Shot 1 Mod

Posted by zxnam on 04 June 2007 - 09:59 PM in Modifications

Is this a secret shot 1 or 2? Also pictures make a world of difference.



#109472 Secret Shot 1 Mod

Posted by zxnam on 04 June 2007 - 10:12 PM in Modifications

Ok, i was just wondering because it says ss2 in the mod.



#110020 Longshot Mod

Posted by zxnam on 08 June 2007 - 08:21 AM in Modifications

1. It will have a better seal if you add another o-ring. You can get them at most hardware stores.
2. Yes you could but it would be a royal pain in the ass if you didn't have a dremel or drillpress.



#110442 Pvc And Cpvc Help!

Posted by zxnam on 10 June 2007 - 02:32 PM in General Nerf

Ok....
1.So what your saying is that 17/32 brass would fit inside of 18/32 inside of 19/32?


2.And yes i am planning on using shells, would they work with brass. As in, brass breech and brass shells? And if it would help i need it for a titan...

3.And CaptianSlug, i head that 1/2 CPVC has the appropriate ID for stock darts..... Is this true?

THANK YOU SHADOW!!!!


1. Yes but dont go looking for 18/32 brass, its 9/16
2. I am not sure if it would work, you may need an ejector.
3. Cpvc fits the the body not thehead of stock darts. The breack wont work if you use stock darts.

#110693 Spring Size Question

Posted by zxnam on 11 June 2007 - 01:17 PM in Modifications

Would I have to do anything to the ace #49 like tempering?

The spring is to short so it will still work but have a very loud noise.

#110733 Rifle Maverick

Posted by zxnam on 11 June 2007 - 04:23 PM in Modifications

So, If I understand correctly, you have to move the whole stock or gun to Prime. Does this decrease the RoF?
