Can you describe where the small blue pieces go?

Like I said above: "Umpshaplapa: The whole blaster is blue, what parts are you talking about?"

I'll get pictures within the next few days. I'm horrible at describing with words.

where did you get the gun?

I owned an original ArrowStorm last year, before I took a break from Nerf, and loved it. Sadly, I sold it and have been hunting for one ever since I started modding again. I saw in the awareness thread Air Zone had a remake out, so I went to TRU and picked one up for only $20. This is the basic modification of the new Air Zone Arrow Storm.

Sorry for the unnecessary post but... THAT IS A HUGE SPRING!

I'm sure Coop has realized that, along with everybody else that commented on that.

Hey Coop my A.S. just arrived, and you were right. That "clickty-clack" sound is frighteningly loud! Have you found a way to quiet it down, or are we stuck with it? Also, which reloading technique do you prefer/settle for it? (I'm guessing the classic "pole & tube")

I haven't found a way to quite it, a combination of lube and FBR may do the trick though.

I don't know what you mean by "pole and tube". I just pull the handle back half way to rotate the turret and push two darts in, and rotate it twice and repeat until full.

Sorry Coop, I just mean poking the stefan into the tube/barrel with a pole-like tool (a pen/straw/chopstick/etc)

He means ram-rodding. I was having trouble with my gun vacum loading my darts. I just glued a peice of wire across the plunger tube opening. Another thing I would suggest doing is filling the giant gap in the plunger head with hot glue. Cut down on that dead space.

I made it rear loading for a reason. I just push the dart in through the back so it's loaded in the back of the barrel. No ram rod.

umpshaplapa: I don't have those issues, but I didn't improve the seal or anything.
