You also might want to look into AT2K's or SM1500's, as I've heard that those are supposed to be quite good.

Personally, I love the longshot, but I am usually a spray and pray kind of guy. If I launch enough foam, someone is bound to get hit. For some people, though, it is better to have to make each shot count. It makes you more apt to try to aim better. Sorry for the novel, I'm just trying to help with your decision.

Then again, integrations aren't really needed when the blaster already has 12 shots on tap.
Let's be realistic, though... Does one really require an integration on a Doomsayer?
No, they don't need integrations...that's why I said they aren't needed.

A decent gun that's reliable is better than an amazing gun that lasts only a while before destroying itself. Pick up an AT2k and quad barrel it, then pick up a Nite Finder and rebarrel it and you're set for <$25.

I also have to recommend an AirTech 3000 since it is a little more balanced (6-70 feet shots).
A little more costly and harder to modify though.
Also, if you use a Longshot, expect to have it break, A LOT.

Longshots aren't generally competitive at nerf wars where other nerfers are well equipped.

Wait, really?! Are you including Angel breeched ones in this?
What you seem to be interested in is impressing people on the interwebz. In which case, yes, those are the bestest.

NO! What VACC just said was, if you want to impress people over the web, go with a brassed longshot. If you want to nerf with other competitive people, it won't be great. They can be outmatched in range and accuracy fairly easily.Angel Breech it is indeed.
xbox180, if you are fairly new to nerf, a brassed longshot with a double clip is well, sort of out of reach from your current capabilities. I'd point you to an AirTech 3000 which can get ranges of 70 or so feet with a barrel replacement and a pump plugging. Similar capabilities rate of fire wise, a little less range, but you have consistency and a bit more reliability (durability) in the AirTech 3000.
If you feel like getting a 110 foot shooting brass breached longshot, it will take a great amount of time, effort, and skill. I just don't want you to have a broken longshot, a shitload of brass and a hurt ego after failing one of the hardest modifications to a complicated gun.

I'll vouch this. Stay away from the angel breeched longshot until you get a few mods under your belt. The AT2K and AT3K are great recommendations for a beginner modder; if you find these too challenging perhaps this isn't your hobby.

I will just let you know that I have modded airtechs before. I am wondering should I make a doomsayer or get a pump action shot gun?
Given just those two choices I would say the PAS is good practice before attempting a Doomsayer.
Exactly. It gives you a chance to become familiar with modding the (relatively simple) plunger mechanism, including nearly required reinforcement, before moving on to the more complicated turret system.

DOOMSAYER
I never thought I would never say this, but a Doomsayer is superior to a X-Bow, and more menacing. In a war, the thought that goes thru someone's head when they see someone with one is, "OH S***!!!" But before that, try a AT4K to get a feel for turreted guns.
