Well nerfings been fun, but nobody around me plays, and my friends gave up. So I'll be selling off my stuff in the next couple of week, including these.

Anyway I did this mod some time ago, but never really got around to post it here. So here it is my final contribution!
Well after my first attemts at modding mine, with 3 large bands they got up in the 40's. So I decided to try something ive never seen or talked about(that I know) before.
Tools/items required for mod
Dremel
Around 12" of CPVC
warthog
Glue gun w/ glue
heres a pic before I did this mod
Posted Image
it was OK but... On to the Mod.

Heres the Gun without the barrel and plunger assembly.

Posted Image
Now heres the barrel assembly, VERY fragile, BUT it doesnt matter becase all you need off of it are these.
Posted Image
Just hack or dremel these off, because everything else wont be put back.
Heres a pic before I cut them off
Posted Image

Now take about 4 and 1/2" to 5" of CPVC and hot glue them (STRAIGHT) to the pieces you just took off the barrel assembly, THEY(as in its no longer one piece) should look like this.
Posted Image
Now, place them in the plunger, and set them down for a moment.

Take your shell and place hot glue in the place pictured below.

After

Let both sides sit for a few minutes, to let the glue dry, dont over flow it, or you cant fit the barrels in.

When both sides are fairly dry take the case that fits the springs, put them in with your plunger assembly.
Remember, Your glue shoulnt be over flowing, and make shure you get the catch on right.
Posted Image
Now keeping the front part tilted up place hot glue in and put your barrels in place.
Posted Image
Dab a thin layer of hot glue on the cpvc, and on the other case and place it on, remember to have to trigger in place as well. DONT FORGET!!!!
Screw in the screws, and allow 5 or more minutes to dry.
Finished product!

It now gets more range without bands, then it did with bands, around 50'+.
Ill have ranges up soon, this was my first write-up by the way. Sorry if there are Too many Pictures, but for the mod, it had to be done!

Ranges (all where shot with light wind)
no bands
both barrels
stock darts
Outside 35', inside 45'
stefans
Outside 35', inside 45'

With bands
both barels
stock darts
Outside 50', inside hits wall with great force
stefans
Outside 50', inside hits wall with great force

Pretty consistant they are. I love them, I suggest this mod to anyone, but especialy those who have broken the barrel assembly. :-D
Question, Coments?

Nice mod, I've always wanted a Warthog but I also didn't know they had 2 barrels. Couldn't you also do a spring addition/replacement?

No, I tried find ing one, and anything more powerful would just destroy the gun. 50' is alot for this gun, and two darts oh yeah, its good.
I have two modded this way, and one with PETG, but theres a seal problem, so unknown on that one.
My fourth one is broken :D

I don't get my kicks out of you,
I don't feel the way I used to do.
I know its bad,
After what we had,
But I’m just not the angel you knew.

Please, don't post in old topics unless you have something useful to say. It's right there in the Code of Conduct, and it really just wastes everyones time. This topic hasn't been posted in in months now. I would suggest editing your post or something before the admins come after you.
