Nice! I was doubtful at first, but my mind was changed by the end.

[frost vectron]

Super clean and nice as always.

I've got two of these stock and I haven't decided if I want to mod them or not... decisions, decisions.

Does packing in the case with FBR make any noticable difference? Weight, sound, stability?

An artist at work.

I need to get me some plumbers goop and a dremel!

[Ubermensch]

Nice, unique, looks cool when it shoots...

Me like! Kudos, Angel.

[OfAllTheNerf]

Very nice. Extremely clean as well.

Does the spring you used as the replacement have a name, or just some random powerful spring?

Great job yet again!

[xNFx 37]

Nice Mod! I've wanted a LnL for a while. I got outbid on the last one though

I'm surprised with the 56 feet though. I thought It would be more.

Either way, Great mod as always!

No, 56' is pretty good for a L'n'L. The reason why they are so popular and awesome is because they look so real.

Which is why I would recommend a black spray paint job and an airsoft scope.

Nice job as always.

Oh, I guess I'm used to the NF ranges.

I wouldn't take it outside if it was black snd had a scope though..

Great, now my write-up looks like shit. Good job, Angel.

I'm curious though; why did you dremel down the lip that the slide used to rest in? Also, didn't you tell us it's a bad idea to glue the plunger-tube down?

Lastly, Why did the spring replacement and seal improvement only wield 10 feet over my mod? It seems like it should be more, doesn't it?

[nerfer34]

That's just a great mod, but I'm also curious as to why only 56'?

Mine hits around that and I didn't replace the spring or lube it or anything really. I think that your barrel may be too long for the LNL. Just a suggestion.

Nice Writeup!

[CS-6Recon]

Wonderful

[penguin807]

After the first minute when you were cutting the stock barrel I thought I finally found proof that you have satanic powers... but then I realized that there was a scroll saw there... but rest assured, I will find proof someday!

Anyway, that's sweet. Is this the mega pistol you were talking about in the WCNO thread or is the mega pistol that "Crazy super pistol of doom that doesn't have an official name yet"?

Very Cool. Probably the first time your modification's directory and my video directory are going to have the same link in them.

Now that you've done this mod, what do you think about Lock-N-Loads in general? Are they worth having?

Nothing revolutionary (honestly I prefer practical to revolutionary, hehe) but, as always, very clean and helpful to anyone who is unfamiliar with the gun. 56ft is a good TRUTHFUL range for an LNL. To achieve more you need to put in too large of a spring which will result in breakage, or sacrifice rof for a longer barrel which defeats the purpose of a side arm. Enjoy your LNL angel. It's the Crossbow's natural mate so......get to it.

[Bomberman]

Great mod. I have a question though, when you put on the gray PVC, does that make it quieter, or is that like just for cosmetics?

[Uterly]

What takes longer, A normal or video writeup?

He put the PVC on to protect the PETG.

Soon.

Reduces sound a by a bit. Very little in this case.

Does the spring you used as the replacement have a name, or just some random powerful spring?

Random powerful spring.

why did you dremel down the lip that the slide used to rest in? Also, didn't you tell us it's a bad idea to glue the plunger-tube down?

I sanded it down so it would pocket much more comfortably. I did say it is a bad idea to super glue the plunger to the shell. This however had to be done. The plunger tube has to go in a certain way for the catch to work. If the pvc barrel were to be rotated it would break the catch mech. Hot gluing it into place solves that concern.

Now that you've done this mod, what do you think about Lock-N-Loads in general? Are they worth having?

The Lock 'n Loads is quite possibly the most accurate pistol I have ever used.
The handle is a little thin, however the whole gun is thin which makes it the most comfortable when pocketed sidearm. Are they worth spending $40 for? No. However they can help deflect darts fired from a pump action shotgun level 2.

Enjoy your LNL angel. It's the Crossbow's natural mate so......get to it.

I have had a crossbow in mid modification over a year. I must think of something diabolical to do to it.

What takes longer, A normal or video writeup?

The modification and video were done in two days. However it was a simple modification.
The Lancer took two months.

[WratH]

Doesn't yours jump up when you shoot it? I thought I seen it do that in that vid, mine definitely did when I had my stronger spring in there, I watched my friend shoot mine and he was holding it perfectly flat and the dart hit the ceiling about 15 feet from him.

[Uterly]

I meant does it take you longer to type a full write up with pictures or to do this sort of video writeup.

[Omega]

Sweet write-up. If I can ever get my paws on a LnL, I'll give this a shot.

Is it very accurate?

[Green Riptide]

omega-

The Lock 'n Loads [sic] is quite possibly the most accurate pistol I have ever used.

Nothing extraordinary here, but there doesn't need to be to have a good mod. I liked the video write-up, but due to technical difficulties and the on-site factor I still prefer images and text. Who does all the filming, since as far as I'm aware you only have two arms?
