Hey I am trying to integrate the DTB into another project and as it already has a round place (where a rocket used to go) I am putting it in there. It is almost a perfect fit for the turret but the front of the gun wont fit and it would look better with the round area already there.

I want to cut the dtb here

So I remove any excess shell that doesnt hold the turret in place. As far as I can tell if I leave enough space for the parts that hold onto the turret as well as where all the internals are it should be fine.

I just wanted your opinions before I go cutting up my guns.

I, too "have recon," as they say. I get him in old country. Then I realize he sucks like bog. So I trade him for potato.

That may work but in order for my true opinion, what gun?

A secret project I am working on. I promise a write up and everything.

It involves a non nerf product a DTB and 6 more barrels of death delivering foamy goodness.

And I am looking into it being painted by direct threat. It will truelly be incredible when its all done. Its only a bit of the way there right now and I havent been able to work on it because my dad decided he wanted to use the basement this week. So hopefully it will be done soon.

Good god you little spammer.

DT is going to charge $70+ for a paintjob, just to make you aware of that.

The idea for the turret would work just fine on a Roto rocket or whatever, but do your best to minimize dead space between the air output and the turret.

The turret is primarily held in place and stabilized by a ring bushing. The front of the shell doesn't really do anything.

The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?

Yeah I know DT and I have discussed a price that I find reasonable for his amazing work. And considering how this thing will probably be not as pretty as I want it to be after it comes out of the oven I think it is a necessity.

And how would you suggest minimizing the dead space? I was thinking a CPVC bridge with an O-ring.

And thank you this is what I was thinking and I wanted to make sure.

Preciate it CS.
