Hey guys!! I've modded my longshot by taking the AirRestrictors out but I'm not completely satisfied with it. It dosen't get good range. I'm going to put a nightfinder spring in it when I get my Nightfinder back from my friend. I'm thinking of doing a barrel replacement so I'm wondering what's the easiest material to work with, and makes the gun get good range.

Well, if you are going to do a full on barrel replacement, (that means making a new breach) then brass is the way to go. Why don't you look in the Longshot Directory, and see what mod you might want to do. It is shownhere. And look at Forsaken_Angel24's Longshot. It's got every mod possible, really.

It's not like that. I put lube on it and its the same. Its just stuck. And when I cock it back it goes farther back then usual. Also I push as hard as I can and it wont go back in. I've tried the methods and they wont work. Also pics are up.

I agree entirely with Bomberman. Brass is the way to go and The Longshot directory would be your best bet.

Though i must warn you, brass is a pain to work with. I wouldn't attempt it unless you are a experienced and confident modder.

Good Luck!

I heard that PETG is the best way to go. But TheNERFArmageddon says that Brass is hard to work with. I have never done a barrel replacement before so I want to go with something easy to work with. Any Ideas?

If you use anything but brass in the longshot, you lose the ability to use clips. Simple as that.

To be nice:

If you want to use the clips, use brass.

If you don't want to use the clips, use anything else.

I am sorry for any feelings that might have been hurt. I was getting sick of the ahem...special posts.

Actually a coupler'd single'd longshot is quite nice. I highly reccomend it. Much simpler thant the other mods, and with practice you can achieve a high rate of fire but with extreme accuracy. Brass is accurate but still more expensive. Remember nerf is supposed to be fun so it's all up to you to decide how you go with your $30 toy.

Worst post ever.

Brass=Stock clips or singled
PVC or CPVC or PETG=homemade clips or singled

USE BRASS IF YOU WANT TO KEEP THE CLIPS YOU ALREADY HAVE.

I apologize for the caps. He is too retarded for this otherwise.


Sorry I misread his reply.

Wait so you HAVE to use brass to keep the clips? And also what does the barrel replacement accually do? Such as increasing the range, power, accuraccy?

A barrel replacement does all of that. It increases the range/power of the shot, and will increase the accuracy, especially on the Longshot.

The muffin man clearly misread a clearly worded post. A clarification was in order, and Lynx gave it. It really had nothing to do with you, butt-head. Er.. king. Butt king.


Edit: There, is that better?
