We inserted a flashlight were the old light used to be on one of the Nightfinders.
It took about 3 hours to make but it is absolutely worth it

I like the slant you have, most Manta NF's are straight, unlike the original. Good job.
One of the reasons that we slanted it was because it just fits our hands better.

It hit's about 75 feet flat for both of the Nightfinders and probably 100 angled
Those ranges seem rather high. Unless you do some really beefy springs in there. What you got in this baby? I also like the split you made with the gun going inwards. Interesting take on the original as Blue said. Also what weights for stefans are you using to get these such good ranges?
Church... gotta soak up that Jesus!

Theres a total of three Nightfinder Springs in each of the guns but its pretty hard to cock Plus we banded the plunger rod so it shoots faster and harder. The weights of the washers we were using in the stefans were size 8 washers
Thats freakish. I was modding my cousin's night finder an with a dtb and NF spring in it, and a cpvc barrel. We hit about ninety feet. When his account I will have him upload it. It was insane, but was acurately tested with a hundred foot tape, so i can tell you it was real. He was so proud it hit farther than my BBBB spring Ls. I showed him who was who with my +bow though...

Ranting bullshit...

I have reason to believe your both liars. 3 nf springs will not fit together correctly to be able to compress in an NF, and there's no way your hitting 90' (flat) with just an NF and DTB spring + cpvc barrel. I have an NF, DTB and cross fire spring in my nightfinder, which also has a cpvc barrel, and it hits no more then 60 flat with good stefans.
Turd stefans. When I pulled these out of the pillow case i was just like, what... the... fuck...

I hit 75 feet (flat) with the springs not 90.

Wait a second, throwing the gun doesn't count. A foam projectile has to come out of some sort of barrel.
No, but all jokes Aside Xtremejump thats bullshit, a dtb spring isnt that strong.
Since you're too young to get a hotel, you should look around, maybe check some aim chatrooms.
Theres alot of really friendly, nice people out there, that'd be more than willing to accomodate a young boy.

How old are your NF's, Because if they are brand new its very possible that they could hit 75 feetI swear the NF's both hit 75 flat

I'm calling bullshit. The way to add springs is to layer them, so they're all on different circumferences around the plunger rod.

That is very much possible. Even though all NF's have the same internals, for some reason some recieve higher ranges than others. I have had 4 NF's, same mods on all of them, new spring, removed AR's, added a brass barrel...etc. One of which hits low 80's, Mid 70's and the other 2 get around 60.

I fuckking swear the gun hits that far. I know because it fucking pissed me off when it beat my lonshot. I never said flat. It was angled. I will have him get a video up as soon as possible. Might be more in the summer time for the fact that he dosen't have a 100 foot tape. I will show you, although it might have been more of an eighty-five, but still the gun kicked ass.

Start purchasing NF's by the gross and you'll see how they are all recieve different ranges.

Thank you! I have a bungie that I have not included in the pictures.
