Heh, well all i really have to say here is that, im white trash. I don't have any of that fancy PETG or PVC or anything. So my first try was paper :P And that didnt work at all, Who would have guessed? So in my frustration i found my Airtech 2000 Quad Barrel. I opened it up, took out two of the barrels and super glued the two small ends together! Now it took me hours to think of all of this, so im not in the mood to dismantle it again and show you a step by step picture installation. So for now ill show u a finished picture and instructions in the next week or so, when i feel like it :P
Heres a write up:

1. Take out the air restraint

2. Take two Airtech 2000 Barrels and super glue them together on the thin side.

3. Super glue one of the fatter ends to the cap where the air restraint was.

4. Screw it all back together, and wallah!

(Optional) 5. Add a longshot scope to the gun :blush:

(Optional) 6. Add a Butt Load of Rubber Bands to it! (8-9 on mine)

Rangers Vary from 50 - 70 and sometimes like 20 (cause it shoots out wrong idk why)

You have this:

Nice. When I was just beginning to mod for the first time, I was still using crayolas. Are those ranges accurate? If they are, that's all good, but I think you're better off using brass or OMC's PETG. And these random moments where it's shooting 20 feet, I believe they may be caused the the large amount of rubber bands you have on it. I usually use just one, and it works fine. If you use too many, it tends to kill range.

That's a very creative solution. I probably never would have come up with that. I think your gun would shoot better with a shorter barrel, though. There isn't enough air output for a barrel that long. If you saw it down to four inches, it will almost certainly improve your ranges.

I'm not trying to backseat-mod or anything, but I'm pretty sure images in signatures are a no-no. Even snazzy ones.

Oh and yea i got a few im's telling me to take my sig off thank you people who told me. I wasn't aware of the sig pic no no rule.

Oh the whole only went 20 feet thing was not by the rubber bands. It was happening before the rubber bands. While i was modding my gun i think i accidently broke something or moved something cause with out rubber bands the thing you use to cock the gun is shot foward faster than normal, its not slow, it goes from cocked to the plastic of the gun in like half a blink :blush:

Btw, this is my first modification and im a kid so gimme some props.

The ranges are from my eye view, but in a minute im gonna pop out a measuring tape and go shoot it and post some accurate ranges.

Oh and, "yourface", i cant saw down the barrel because its just long enough for me to slide the bullet in and the it gets stiff about a centimeter at the bottom where it enters the small bart of the barrel which holds it, so if i cut it any the bullet would stick of the barrel. Do i still want do saw it anyway?

Ok heres some accurate ranges

In Feet: Micro Darts
43
43 1/2
45
45
64

In Feet: Streamline Darts
51 1/2
53
53
56

It seems like a very original idea. if you want to get some higher ranges try replacing the spring with a ff one.

i am pretty sure you did not use stefans, which would probably increase the ranges a little bit more.

Nice job for one of your first Mods! !-!

Where can i buy stefans, besides other modders? Whats an ff spring?

I tried a Doubel Spring replacement for my maverick:
I thought about using my old broken Dart Tag Guns spring but it was too big, so i cut it a little and then packed it in alot. Ultimatly the circumfrence was bigger so it didnt work.

Stefans are not bought, they are made from foam backer rod (also known as caulk saver)hot glue, and a weight of some type. This should answer all of you dart making questions.

An ff spring is the spring from a firefly.
