I've had an idea that I would like to try, but would like to know if it would work or not. I do not own a ballzooka, nor do I know someone who does.

My Idea was putting 3 or more stefan sized barrels in each of the ball sized barrels. Then you would have a sort of a rapid firing, revolving, shotgun.

-First off, I would like to know how big the plunger is, and if it would have enough power to propel 3 or more stefans.

-Second, I would like perhaps an explanation or a picture of how the internals work.

I checked the directory and found no ballzooka mods. I also tried searching and found almost nothing under modification.

Let me know if this would be practical, or if this was a waste of a topic.
Please no flames, I am just curious.

I have no idea of the specifics, but it's a push-pull according to the wiki (and in any case it doesn't appear to have a trigger), so it probably wouldn't be worth the effort. Then again, if you're trying a shotgun configuration you're not exactly going for pinpoint accuracy, so I guess it would be a matter of taste.

People usually erotically massage idea threads here just so you know. Also, I assume you're NOT talking about the motorized ballzooka because that has no potential at all. However the old school ballzooka may possible be modded the same way and arrowstorm is. Barrel replacement and and pump away.

This exact topic came up a few weeks ago on NHQ (unless that was you)

It is a push pull pump. I think if you could get the air seal right it could fire three darts, for indoor nerf range.

I would just check out reactor mods for examples of people who converted ballguns for darts.

Thanks for your help guys.

So to fire it you have to pull it back and push forward? Perhaps it is not such a good idea. I thought it was more like an arrowstorm, where you pull back and a spring does the pushing work for you.

I read the NHQ article, and the plunger looks like it has the power to propel 3 darts out of very short barrels, but the ranges woulden't be enough to be of any use outside.

I know "idea" threads are extremely erotic, but due to the lack of information on the ballzooka, and lack of, whell... ballzookas, the fourms looked like the last place to turn.

I think it's safe to say that this would not be an effective mod, so please let this thread die.

Or you could minimize it, paint it black, add a red dot sight to it and you would have a nerf 6 barrell CAW grenade launcher.

Two things:

1: I asked for this thread to die. Your reply also did not contribute to the thread in any way.

2: Adding a red dot scope to a "shotgun" type gun is the most idiotic idea I have heard in a while. Looking at the internals, I don't think the Ballzooka can be "minimized" much beyond taking the handle off. Painting a gun to look like a real gun that you plan on using in public places is the second most idiotic thing I have heard in a while.

Function over form

LET THE THREAD DIE!!!
