So long is the barrel? Still really cool.

[A side of nerf]

Can you still do this without cutting the longshot into a shorty?

Great modification Ice! It also seemed quieter than a modded gun might be. And I like the paintjob as well...

Of course. shorty is just my style.

Ice

I tried to cpvc it and a was Succsesful, execpt for the handle I epoxyed it and epoxyed it and every to time I tried to prime it and it snapped. Just use a 1/2 cpvc T and put and end cap on. There you have it a air tight seal and you do not have to worry about it snapping off. Sorry for the late post.

P.S.

Is this your new Primary/best LS

[hereticorp]

You know what I'm going to do with this?

I'm going to integrate CaptainSlug's shotgun handle into it.

All I have to do is shorten the arms, and put a threaded rod through directly above the barrel...

NO MORE BOLT SLED!

Oh this is going to rule.

Thanks for the idea, pictures will be forthcoming when I figure the details out.

[darkstar42]

I imagine a T coupler would work a ton better for this.

That is exactly what I did.

Is this a simple and easy-to-do mod?

[xbox180]

Yes, its a very easy mod

[darkstar42]

Okay, I did this, but I cannot get it to shoot if i put the dart in from the back of the barrel, i have to muzzle load it.

You need more spring power, or your darts are to tight in your barrel.

Yeah I just checked that, thanks, works fine now

[nightfinder]

Okay, Ice i am a VERY nooby modder and I was wondering since you did the dtg integration what the lengths of the cpvc were?So i can be more exact, and also will a recon spring make it shoot well?

[Nonsense Man]

Ok I'm not answering the first question. But adding a recon spring with the stock longshot one (if both can fit on the plunger rod) would increase the range. If you are planning on replacing the stock longshot spring with a recon spring don't as it is much weaker (the recon spring). A good LS replacement spring is a spring from a big bad bow or an ar-15 spring.

A recon spring fits decently, and i guess im not THAT nooby, (i can mod several guns)And also i looked at the DTB post and should i all a lil bit of cpvc because that would be a tee fitting into a coupler

[Nonsense Man]

If it fits well go for it. Another spring that works well inside a LS is a stock NF spring.

Ive tryed that but i stretched it too much, BTW im giving this gun to my 10 year old cousin so if i added a stock NF spring + recon + longshot do you think he could cock it?

[Nonsense Man]

Well I have never used a recon before so I won't be able to comment on that. But my 9 year old sister was able to cock my nf/ls spring combo.

So has my cousin who also is a modder, and he cocked the LS with the recon spring easily, sometimes he gets where he bends his wrist when he cocks it

I went and found a good pen spring but its WAAAY long so how would i cut it?

Depends on what kind of tools you have. With a dremel and a metal cutting piece it is easy. Another thing you can do is work at it with wire cutters (just the ones that are like heavy duty scissors)

Ya I'm totally stalking you because it would be outrageous for me to be asked a question and answer it.

Your punctuation and capitalization are horrendous, please fix these immediately. Also have you read this? Please do. And follow it, because you aren't right now. Furthermore, necroing is highly looked down upon here. Especially if the topic is more than a 3 months old. If you have a question that's terribly important for the thread starter, than PM him. ( Or her. I can't really tell ice's gender ) That's what its for.

/rebuke

A pen spring? are you talking for the catch? If so, yeah pen springs are pretty perfect for LS catches.
