Im in the middle of integrating my secondary gun from my longshot to the main gun and the question of what should i do with the barrel? came in my head. So i was wondering which barrel should i use? Should i just leave it with the standard barrel which shoots farther but not nesessarely as accurate?


Or should i take the barrel from the secondary gun which is more accurate but decreases range.



I have removed the AR and added another spring. Im new to modding Nerf guns so i just want some opinions from those who are more experienced. Im bad at making decisions

Stick with the original barrel until you have enough experience to to an Angel breech. The longer barrel will kill both accuracy and range. Without a brass replacement, you probably won't be getting great ranges or accuracy anyway (I'd imagine in the ballpark of 55-65' or so depending on the spring), but the front gun thing won't help at ALL.

Agreed. See how loose darts are in that barrel? Yeah, it does nothing.

i didnt care for the bipod and the secondary gun looked like crap so i just wanted to put in with the main gun. The main gun shoots around 90 ft and the secondary gun shoots like 40 ft. But ye i think ill just keep it with the main barrel i guess.

Wait, 90ft flat? What kind of spring did you add to your LS? I can't imagine a non-Angel Breech LS getting that much range...and I second .Z4's suggestion.

I believe that those ranges have to be angled rather steeply. I can't see a non-Angel (or any other decent-great breech)modded Longshot getting 90' flat without breaking after about 6 shots. A spring that could get those ranges without any other mods (AR excluded) is most likely going to break it.

ye it was angled, sorry failed to mention that
