BigFoot: Does the paint make the slide difficult to pull back (because the portion of the gun that it slides on is thicker), or is there not really any noticeable difference? Also, what grit sandpaper (or what Dremel bit) did you use to get such a smooth look?

Is there any problem with the dart's transition from CPVC to brass? If not, I think my redesign of my shotgun concept might work. Since brass shells are expensive and time-consuming to make, I was going to use CPVC ones.CPVC in the shell lines up with the brass in the barrel almost perfectly.

#101970 Modifying A Longshot?
Posted by SHADOW HUNTER ALPHA on 08 April 2007 - 09:05 PM in Modifications
Jamming while feeding darts, or jamming while being removed/inserted from/into the gun?I just modified my longshot... and now my longshot clips jams more then before the gun was modified, does anyone know what the problem is and what i can do?
Either way, make sure the bolt is pulled all the way back to move the clips. Also do not slide the bolt back more than one time per loading unless you modified the system to be able to shotgun-load darts.

No. PETG or brass (17/32" O.D. brass). Since you can't get the latter, contact OMC for some PETG tubing, although I have yet to see a breach made out of it.Is there any other material I can use for the new barrel? I can't get my hands on Brass. Would any PVC or CPVC work for the barrel? and if so what size?

Chill. It was a dumb question, but calm down.What, you can't pick up a fucking spring? Are you a cripple?
If you are not careful, a few springs may pop out, like the one used to hold the scope, but nothing vital. Just remember where all the parts go, and it is a very easy mod.
P.S.: The ' key and the shift key are located next to your right pinky. Use them.

Also, please check the post dates. If the last reply was over a month or two ago, then try PMing the poster or searching instead. Just a heads-up before you get flamed.
Edit:

This thread was one month old, and you contributed nothing. Please refrain from posting things like this just to raise your post count, which is no mark of seniority. Also, please use the Spell Check when you post.I just bought one of these and I used this mod. It seems to work pretty good, I can't wait to see what it can do in a NerfWare
#98873 Longshot Modification.
Posted by SHADOW HUNTER ALPHA on 27 January 2007 - 08:15 PM in Modifications
Why not integrate an At2k or At3k into the front gun and just use the front gun's pump as a means of pulling the airtanks pin? Sure you'd have to find a place for the pump but it's possible.
Sounds like something Falcon would do, being the turret junkie that he is... However, the range and power of not only one, but multiple quickly-reloading back-up shots is something that would make this worthwhile.

I just have two questions, what’s the point of the tightening rings and where can I get them?
You just have to make them by crimping the brass slightly at certain points. As far as I know, there's nothing to be bought except for the brass.

For a better-fitting spring, cut down an AR-15 buffer spring available here.

Also, I doubt that they are going to go back and add a second mag to the package. They might make the move to stock stores with the spares, but I wouldn't bet on it until we get some more info.

CaptainCC is full of shit.I don't think anybody has mentioned this yet:
http://www.amazon.co...LS/ref=dp_olp_2
Guy claiming to already have one to sell. He clearly can't, any thoughts from people?
As a side note, this is the same guy selling a Crossbow for $200 (http://www.amazon.co...6128144&sr=1-17)
On a more cheery note, the release is tomorrow. And all Wal*Marts have the RC in stock? For $20? Kickass.

#135898 Nerf Shotgun
Posted by SHADOW HUNTER ALPHA on 13 January 2008 - 09:52 PM in Homemades
Rest assured, this project is still in the works, despite over a year in development hell. Since PVC is proving to be difficult to work around a CPVC-shell system, I am exploring new options for making the body of the gun. This includes resin-casting and using vacuum-forming for molds. I want this gun to have a nice, finished feel to it, rather than produce a model that looks and performs like crap.
Also, I will be working on that updated directory. This week is midterms (fun fun), so I'll probably have it around the weekend.

That was pointless. Let someone who has their design to comment on bump the thread.Achem...BUMP
ER CARS YAY
NF: Yes, the ramp did seem a bit inefficient. However, the carrier that I use will be dependent upon the design of the lower receiver. Right now, I'm thinking of something like the latter. The carrier will be a piece of PVC (like a thin strip cut from a large-diameter tube, not a complete tube itself), and will have a bent sheet-metal tab going from its rear up towards the bolt. When the bolt is in its foremost position, there will be a notch that the top of this tab can rest in, which will allow the carrier to be in resting position. When the bolt moves back, the tab will be displaced as the notch on the bolt moves away. This will cause the carrier to rise. I apologize for the lack of pictures, but the lower receiver is still kicking my ass. I have recently opted for a FAR-esque trigger using steel rod to prevent buckling and spongy trigger pull. This is far easier than bending a nail or music wire precisely and then finding a way to perch a spring on it that will not obstruct movement, (It is harder than boltsniper makes it look. Probably the most annoying thing thus far.) as in the SCAR.

I was going to try for 100th post in my own forum, but that would merit reprocussions from Piney for double-posting. (Although this is technically the 100th reply.)
Back on topic:
I am working on a scale-dimension draft of my blueprints on a 2-D CAD program, so I will probably be done with almost all of my design work and detailing by the 17th, accounting for the time I need to take out for homework, school, and studying. I hope to see blueprints from as many other contributors to this topic as possible, so we can all build different, yet hopefully effective, models.

P.S.: Flaming Hilt, your ramp could work, and if it is what you want to use in place of the carrier, go for it.

I'm following the K.I.S.S. principle as much as I can. That way I can build confidence for more advanced stuff later.
It looks like you might need the confidence if you're not using a bolt. You'll need to be able to get the seal to be prefect with each shell and every reload if this concept is going to work. Another thing is that since you don't have a bolt, you can't have any kind of lockup that will ensure a seal until the grip is pulled back. Your design seems like you would have to hold the grip forward at all times for any seal between the shell, nozzle, and chamber walls to be formed. That's just too much work, and it makes it more realistic and practical to have a lockup and bolt. However, if you can get a model to work, then share how you did it. There could be some useful concepts in it for all of us.
#95687 Nerf Shotgun
Posted by SHADOW HUNTER ALPHA on 01 December 2006 - 05:56 PM in Homemades
The tip is a nail, the body is a cut-down tube from a Bic pen (with hole cut in black end cap), the two springs are from some spare pens, and the springs are threaded onto a second nail. The heads of the nails are touching, and the blue cap is the cut-down base from a blue wall anchor (like the kind used for nails) with the side tabs, base rim, and fluted tip removed.
Overall, the ejector has enough power to put small holes in pizza boxes when fully depressed. Suggestions or comments, anyone?
P.S.: Ronster, I hope to see a successful model of the carrier so we can actually prove the concept in scale for a nerf gun.

Orrrrrrrr, you could not spend billions of dollars on something thats not going to work and buy a nerf gun.
-Butt
Who said these won't work or that they're going to be that expensive? I haven't seen you contribute anything, and unless you're going to, then keep comments like this out of my thread. We get homemades to work by trying, and there's proof in the works of boltsniper and Carbon, and I've never seen anyone tell them that they should give up.

I forgot that the carrier dog does indeed move towards the magazine. Noob mistake #654 - overlooking simplistics. As for the axles, I was thinking some thin music wire or a really skinny nail, something that won't bend or crack easily. I intend to clean and lubricate this gun well, so your 3rd suggestion won't be a problem. As for the gears, I think it would be easier to find some at a hobby store or something, since I'm not paying $3 for a single gear. (and I have yet to see a round, gear-like Lego.)
With these problems mostly solved, I need some suggestions on how to prevent the shells in the magazine from slipping out of the gap when the carrier is raised to load a shell. I have a feeling that my spring-loaded tab on the end of the carrier might not work since it will be too big.
