Good to be doing another write-up, haven't done one in quite a while.

So lets get started!

This will allow you to use stefens in your longshot.

Tools and materials:
-exacto nife
-epoxy putty
-rectrangular wood dowel
-possibly a dremel

First you need to open it up, pry open the tabs with an exacto knife or cut them off with a dremel.

After you have opened it, measure and cut your wood, glue it on at the appropriate positon according to the length of your stefens. Make sure you measure and glue it on straight,

This is where I origanly stopped, it broke after 1 use :P

Wimpy, wimpy, wimpy.

Hefty, hefty hefty:

Reinforce the wood with a large ammount of epoxy putty, make sure there is a small gap in between the two pieces of wood when the clip is reassembled.

Now, take the slider piece and cut it so there is about a 1/32th of an inch gap between it and the wood.( If you do not do this properly you will not be able to fire the last shot in your clip!)

Posted Image

Grab the spring and glue it in so that the spring is flush with the open edge of the slider.

(sorry couldn't get the camera to focus properly)

Reassemble it and your'e done!

This clip is much more durable and, in my opinon, easier to mod!



Questions? Comments? Flames?

It's a distinct possibility. But seriously, that's all you could come up with? You are a terrible Troll.

Wow, that is going to fix a hell of a lot of problems in my next stefan clip. I recantly fucked up a clip and when I get another one, I'm definatly doing this. One question though, how does the sping fit in the bottom of the clip?

Isn't that what TIG said to avoid?

Is it fear or courage that compels you?

How does the clip work when you have one dart left and you try to return the primed bolt back into position? That's why you're supposed to keep that back part of the ramp in there, to avoid jams. Can you just not fire the last dart?

On the other hand, the guy who posted before me used the word 'fuck' a lot so he probably knows what he's talking about.

I use 1 3/4" stefans and havn't had to modify a clip yet. I still don't understand why people keep modding them.... But nice job, your clip seems like it isn't breaking anytime soon.
