So I decided to make something a bit more fun. I don't really see this getting any application in a war, although if you have any add on barrels for a shotgun effect, that should work out. My thought process went something like this: Hey, I haven't messed around with my nerf guns in a while... I don't really want to buy a new one, so what do I have lying around I can play with... Hey, my maverick got painted shut before I could do a barrel replacement, and i have an extra titan around... Wow, the titan tank fits almost perfectly into where the mav barrels were... let's get this show on the road. And then I got the show on the road. There isn't much to this, other than cutting a few things. Without further ado, I give you the big fucking gun.







apologies for the crappy pictures, my camera is my cellphone pretty much until I'm out of college.

I laughed SOOO hard when I saw that. Awesome! I bet you could get some wicked ranges with it if you plug the pump, and at a war that thing would have a BUTTLOAD of surprise factor to it.

[Bomberman]

Damn. That is a BFG. How do you fire it? The regular Maverick Trigger?

[Watari]

That would be a great sidearm if you did Bendy Straw's Absolver modification to it, almost wants to make me hack up my couplered/absolvered (?) titan...just to do this...but I know it's not worth it...also, can you tell us where to hack (because usually when I try to find this out by myself....I destroy the whole gun)
One more question...is it awkward to pump?
Although it is a BFG, I don't find it practical as a holister (spelling) to that would be awkward (in my opinion) and if you did use it as a sidearm,
then you'd probably need another sidearm...because it's a pump gun...or you could use that as your primary...
EDIT:

Damn. That is a BFG. How do you fire it? The regular Maverick Trigger?

Probably he just kept the maverick trigger and hooked the trigger to a piece of metal (ie paperclip) or a string and then he tied that (or hot glued...etc.) it to the titan compressor
That's what my friend did to what is now a destroyed IX2k (scout2k...or the "titan pistol" and the 2k internals integrated into it...)

I laughed SOOO hard when I saw that.

I did too

The pump is plugged, it's the same Titan I got 170 ranges with a ctd and cpvc. The triggers are linked via baling wire, so the maverick trigger fires the titan. This thing is all about fun, really. I wanted to mess with some pneumatics, and I really like modding the mav, for some reason. I suppose you could use it in a war, or some role playing thing where you have to blow something up, but really, I get plenty of fulfillment just shooting this thing across the room.

-edit-
Where you cut the front of the maverick is up to you really. I left as much of it on as I could, but you could conceivably get rid of the entire top arm of the front. You will need to cut out a lot of the support structures for the maverick internals to make room for the hose you have to run for the titan. Just go really slow with a dremel and you should be fine. I even ripped some parts out with pliers, because the dremel was too slow. This isn't really a practical gun at all, so the primary/sidearm dilemma isn't a concern of mine. If you're actually worried about it, shotgun or mongo it, and make it a primary.

LMAO!!! HAHAHAHA!!! That's so freaking awesome!!!! Its like a maverick... BAZOOKA! I'd call it a Mavzooka!

Or a 'Bazerick'... does that sound like a German gun or is it just me? Anyway, I like the modification, even if it turns out to be impractical. Now all it needs is a paint job, with the name etched/painted on the side...

[serpent sniper]

Cool. Personally, I'd put the pump somewhere else. Like others have said, that would be badass with a shotgun mod. Maybe even a pvc stock.

[BlackFox]

I seriously did the exact same mod to my titan and maverick. I was trying to create a rocket pistol. I just scrapped it because the pump wasn't as neat as yours is and it was essentially a rifle with a pistol grip. I'm glad to see the concept was feasible though. Nice work!

[Salmon]

Dang it, that was my idea, except with BendyStraw's "Absolver" shotgun mod... You beat me to posting it... Well, good mod anyways. I would recommend putting the pump on the top of the Maverick.

[Knud-Hansen]

haha awesome! not gonna lie though, if that was pointed at me during a war all I would be able to do before i got hit, was raise an eyebrow

[zaphodB]

With the pump diagonal and on the side, I can pump it while the missile is loaded. If it were on top, I wouldn't be able to do that.

[bartel]

When I first saw the title of this topic, I thought BFG=Big Friendly Giant. I was wrong. There's nothing friendly about that thing.

[notthedinkus]

I built my Titan Rifle into a BFG 9000 like the one made by IndyMogul but it broke and was to hard to pump so I scraped it for a more SniperRifle look.

[Dangaard]

twice is nice.

[C5 Z]

LOL very nice

[zaphodB]

Dangaard, very nice. You lose the fun of the pistol, but that looks way more functional.
