Typically on the haven you start by putting pics up. I can understand it because you're new here, but aquaint yourself with the site a little before you start your own thread.

It seems that unless you plug up all the little gaps between the reducers, the will all be pushed out of the vents. However, I may just been using a really really tight dart.

hmm that's interesting. I need to finish my homework but then I'll try it with my stock streamlines and 1/2 inch outside D copper because its a nice fit.

and did you just do that? If so that was fast!

Hey I have one of these! You have inspired me to do something with it =]

[Ubermensch]

No, he had already done that before, he was just sharing the info with you. Also, please don't double post. Just edit your original post.

It's no good. The air that thing pushes out isn't sufficient enough to put a dart anywhere. A nerf gun typically uses one short concentrated burst of air to achieve the range that we get. That type of gun fires more of a large ball of air that isn't concentrated enough or released as fast so that a dart can achieve your average air gun ranges.

Yea listen to the above post. Also because the rubber film or whatever it is doesn't go all the way up, it creates an enormous amount of dead space. It won't fire a dart anywhere.

There's also a much much larger version of the airzooka with trigger.

Here!

It may be interesting to some people. If you somehow could get the barrel right up close to the plastic sheet, you would be eliminating about 1/2 the deadspace.

I have the Megazooka. I doubt these things have the right mechanisms to fire darts, as said before. They're meant to shoot air only. I'm thinking a loose barrel fit could work okay, but see where you go with this.
