Ok, my Magstrike is broken the part encircled is the part that fell out. Don't mind the red circles because I borrowed this pic from FA_24.
I opened the gun andput the part back but after a shot it fell out again. I need to fix this because my aunt gave it to me
and I live in the Philippines which has a limited amount of nerf guns. (Talk about a bad place to take up this hobby huh?) I need to know how to fix it.

Thanks in advance.

In almost every case of broken parts, it really matters exactly what broke and precisely where.
Are you saying that the angled, spring loaded tip fell off from the arm which advances the clip?
Fell out in what way?
When you say you put it back, what does that mean, mechanically?


Exactly, I put it in normally there are 2 holes at the sides right? So I put the metal poles in those holes
exactly where it's supposed to be. Then it just fell out.

Glue the metal axle in place. Problem solved.

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?

Hmm Maybe I can get some help in this thread too. My bladder has some retainment issues at the moment ( :P )

The white piece between the bladder and the pump that connects the two is having some kind of issue.

Every time I get it over say 6-7 pumps I hear a whoosh like the air release valve and a section of the black bladder slides off of the white connector. I have slathered the thing in plumbers goop and it got up to 35 pumps before a loud crach blew away a section of plumbers goop. So now I have the whole thing slathered in a ririculous amount of the substance hoping for a fix. I saw FA24 take his bladder off this piece in his mod, I never touched it.It worked fine before I opened it up and I didnt do anything to the bladder. I could really use some help on this as I have spent WAY too much time dealing with this issue.

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.

If the problem is what I think it is, the bladder is slipping out of the white plastic "cuff" that screws down onto the shell? If that's the case, you need to TIGHTEN it better not just seal it. If it's not screwed all the way down, start there. If it is, get creative with a large hose clamp, but even a couple of large zip ties may work (I did a similar repair to a PowerClip using zip ties). Good luck.
