Glock-like Compact Sidearm

First, cut off the ammo holders and remove the slider like so:
Then, take the female part of the plunger and cut a small part off the front and replace it with 1/2" pvc that is of the same length so the total length of the male part is the same as before.
Next, cut a niche on opposite sides of the 1/2" pvc so that they are in accordance with the existing crevices. In other words, cut the pvc in such a way that the piece of pipe can fit in nicely with the track on the inside of the casing.
For the barrel, I just used a crayola barrel, and I also had no O-rings so I just used e-tape for a seal. Although you don't see it in the pic, there is also tape over the back end with a small hole punched in it to tighten up the air flow.
Insert sexual innuendo here. Whoops, I mean lube up the shaft and stick it in. Super glue the front end of the barrel to the inside part of the casing where it should fit perfectly/rest snugly.
Close it up and it'll look like this.
As you can see, I also made slightly smaller stefans to use with this, just because everything about it is so tiny. Also, in the picture, I haven't put on the zip tie yet, but for those of you who can't figure it out, just run it through that slot on the top in front of the orange part that sticks up. This will serve as your means to cock the gun while maintaining its compact size. Just as a disclaimer, this gun is really best for people like me i.e. people with tiny hands. Seeing as the ultimate goal here was to make a powerful sidearm as small as possible, this is not recommended for those of you who have dustbins for hands.
And for those of you wondering why I didn't just take off the slider and put on the zip tie: I wanted a better barrel (and one without air restrictors, for that matter) for a little more distance. Also, the original male part of the plunger had that retarded arrow like shape to the front of it and I didn't want anything sticking out of the front of the gun. Cutting that part off would have just made that part of the plunger too short and the darts still would have been sticking way out the front because I couldnt remove the barrel stem and restrictor, so I would be using only micros. This way, I can use either stefans or micros without anything sticking out of the front. Again, enjoy-

I decided the zip tie was too boring for a means to cock the gun, so sacrificing a little bit of compact-ness, i took the sliding cocker of the mav, cut it down at an angle, and then cut off the tabs on the bottom part of the piece so that the entire thing could fit on the gun flat while still using the original horizontal pin to cock the gun.
You could also keep the tabs on to keep the cocker more stable (tuck the tabs into the thin track that is already existing on the gun), but if you did that, you would have to drill holes in the cocker and pass something new horizontally through it to catch on the plunger. By doing so, the entire cocking piece would not be lying flat on the gun, and i didn't like that, so i did it like this and just settled for it being a little loose.
It looks pretty nice cosmetically too, I'll probably paint it too so the colors don't look retarded and so it doesnt say "NER" on the side of my gun (cutting down the cocking mechanism ditched the "F"). Here it is:
Hope you all like it-

G-bus christ. This is over two years old. Check the dates. The original poster hasn't been active in months.

Main thing is, oftentimes the original posters/ last posters are long gone to answer any questions, so Splitz' idea of going to the mod directory is right - on.
I'll close this in case a noobie-doobie wants to join the flame party.
