Nf Help

Here is what I did:
1. Drilled out both the air limiter and air restrictor.
2. Hot glued a mega-firing barrel onto gun, filed down the insides so it would fit.
3. Used a bead of glue to attach the catch spring to the catch (because it kept annoyingly popping out)
After all of that, it would not fire at all. After I banded it, it achieved about 10 feet. The only thing that might be wrong with it is that I used a relatively loose barrel. I was unsure whether to use a loose or tight barrel on the NF. Even then, it should be getting some range.
Anybody know what's wrong?

Okay, I modded my NF to shoot megas. Everything seems like it should work, but the gun barely shoots at all.

I think that your method was what caused the problem. Every Nf I've seen never required drilling to take apart. Most of the time, once you open it, the restrictor comes right out. I think you may have left some unnnecessary tooling marks that are causing a leak. That's my only advice, i hope you can find the problem.
Additionally, I question the concept of removing the limiter. By removing that, all of the air is pushed directly at the dart without being concentrated. The limiter actually utilizes the Bernouli Effect to speed up the air coming out of the barrel. The larger colume of air being pushed through the small opening makes it necessary for the air to presurize even further, causing more push on the dart.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I also hot glued the outside of the limiter, once again as it PN's mod.
