Ok i got a master blaster a few days ago. It was not working when i got it. It is an extremly simple gun. i was able to fix the problem with out any problem. but it just doesnt feel right. The plunger in the gun wasnt building up pressure. It appeard to small for the tube, so i wraped some tape around it and lubbed it up. can anyone tell me a better way that i can repair the part. it builds up quite a bit of pressure, but i want it to be a more fluid motion. thanks

Tape probably isn't form-fitting enough. If the original plunger tip is too worn out and doesn't create a good enough seal, first try stretching it out, as you would a spring. But just to let you know, most ball guns don't use very tight plungers. Perhaps it's because they don't expect kids to be able to generate enough force to get the plunger through the tube if it's a tight seal, or there could be some physics involved.

I would experiment with rubber materials, like o-rings from the hardware store. Perhaps you could substitute a drain stopper. Good luck modding.

Nononnononononono, No! the master blaster has an "adjuster nozzel" on the back end of the plunger tube. Turn it to one side, it is easier to push and pull but the balls don't go too far. Turn it the other way, and it's hard to push and pull, but the balls can get 35 feet on this setting.

yea, i realized that thing, but i dont think thats the problem, cuz even when i tightened it nothing happened.

I got the top barrell working pretty sweet every shot the only problem now is the bottom barrell almost never fires anyone got a mod for this?

The same thing happened to mine, you need to replace the vinyl tubing.
