Hey guys! So finally I have something to post on NH. I know it's not a huge extensive mod or anything, but I think it's pretty cool. Basically what I did was take the innards from the recon tactical light and fit them inside of the big blast shell; this is the result:





And the trigger:


Then finally some internal pictures:






I achieved this by using a wood engraving kit to melt through the plastic to allow space for the front end of the light to stick out. I then hot glue everything in and voila!

Thanks for reading, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to post.

Cheers,
Fuzz

I love how clean it looks at first i thought you did a before picture.

Welcome to the Haven!

Not bad for a first mod. I would place a better bulb and batteries in also. The ranges of a BB are way further than that little light will shine.

[fuzz080]

Thanks for the positive feedback guys! And yes, I should replace the bulb, but my skills in wiring and electronic are pretty low, so I don't think I'd be able to pull that off. Anyways thanks again for the suggestion.

Cheers,
Fuzz

First off I'm not directly saying this at you fuzz080. But does this really even deserve it's own thread? All you did was take out a recon's light and glue it inside of another gun. I think that it would be good to post this in the modification/paintjob pictures thread. Allot of people have been posting their newly modded guns on it's own thread. All that this seems to be doing is clutter the forms. So please just post your guns in the modification/paintjob pictures thread instead of making a topic for every gun you mod.

Flame: hierarchy this is a mod that has never been done before. He has a total right to make a writeup and contribute to the nerfing world. Yes, not everyone will find this mod effective and quite possibly, worth the effort but it still is a mod. So shut up!

On Topic: This is a neat mod, if you were to replace or strengthen the light like fuzz already said it would be very nice to have in a indoor war, in the dark, that allows BBBBs.

[fuzz080]

Sorry about that hierarchy, but I think that this qualifies for it's own thread.

Tornado13, hierarchy does have a point, this belongs in the mods/PJ thread. This thread isn't really a write up, It doesn't show a process, It just shows a couple of finished pictures and an internal pic.

fuzz080, welcome to the 'Haven, and I think your going to fit in well here.

Alright then, do you think I should get an admin to lock the thread?

No, you shut up, please, and let me explain.

First off, I find it slightly perturbing that I only recognize about 10% of the people here that still post on the Haven. I stopped Nerfing like a few months back, and already people are having more posts than me, seems like we have a ton of postwhores.

Tornado, this doesn't actually do anything to add to the functionality to the gun, and if you're all about indoor in-the-dark wars I'd doubt any parent would want a BBBB firing projectiles all over the place. It absolutely pointless in my opinion, and therefore shouldn't have a thread in the first place. But since it is "new, something nobody's done before..." whatever the hell everyone says. First, I can guarantee someone has done this before, and have you actually looked around the forums to see if anyone has? this forum has been around for years before you came. Maybe you did, and if so I'm sorry, but I doubt you've looked through the countless pages of mods here at the Haven.

I'm not trying to flame anyone in particular here, and that's just fine if you like "integrating" pointless (imo) lights on guns which will dent walls, but I just thought everyone should be aware.

try intergrading an airsoft laser into it.They arnt too expensive for a low quality one, and if you have a friend who is good with wiring, you could actually use it for somthing good.But overall, very nice and clean mod, but not too helpful.

fuzz080, welcome to the 'Haven, and I think your going to fit in well here.

I agree, I find this an interesting mod and until I saw the second picture I didn't know what the orange piece was. Yes, this could've gone in the mods/pj thread but it can also have it's own thread. Anyway nice job.
