This mod was spawned off of OfAllTheNerf's reactor mod to shoot stefans.
Tools
-Saw
-Philips screw driver
-hot glue gun

Materials
-Reactor x2
-1/2 PVC pipe
-Patience


So first! start off either doing this mod--> This mod,which retains the ability for you to play with balls, or the quick way, which does not.

The Quick Way:
Remove all the crap in the front of the gun. (the large spring, and the orange thing. I'm a poet and I know it)

Then open up the gun and take out the air restriction so it will look like this:


The put hot glue on the end of some PVC pipe and put it in the orange tube. Look down the PVC pipe and line it up with the end of the plunger tube.


and then glue it to the edge of the barrel



Now you can shoot micros. Yay. now moving on to the better part.

Okay now cut off one of the reactors' handles completely and one like this:



Now epoxy/hot glue them together (I used hot glue cause thats all I had )


Now this last part is dependent on whether or not you want both barrels to fire together or to be able to fire them separately.

If you want them to fire separately STOP

If you want them to fire together glue a piece of 1/2 PVC in between the two barrels. Be sure not to glue it so far back that you cant pump it.


and you are DONE!

Accuracy is terrible cause the gun moves so much when in use.

Range is about 90' with stock taggers, this is with an unknown angle of fire because of the way the gun fires.

Some of you may have noticed that the lower gun on my set up is smaller, this is simply because I had ran out of 1/2 PVC and the was the longest piece I had laying around. So I had to minimize it to make it possible to load. Also the glue wasn't very strong so I wrapped duct tape between the two orange tubes to make it stronger.

Edit: Resized pictures, and I apologize for the blurry pictures my camera isn't very cooperative.

Okay that seems like a bunch of bullshit. There is no fucking way you are getting 90 feet out a reactor with a stock dart even with a 180 degrees angle. Also I would suggest that you make your pictures a little bit. Other then that I like it but i still don't think that you need 2 shots, and it seems rather uncomfortable to hold. But overall welcome to the haven.

180 degrees is flat...

I can't really see what you did that well, the pics are pretty small. Looks like an interesting idea though.

It's also pointed at yourself...

If it isn't accurate then the range isn't that important, but if it works for you, more power to you.

If OfAllTheNerf got 85' out of his, I can believe that italianhandgun got 90' out of his. Maybe italianhandgun used a better dart or maybe the gun was angled a little bit more.

[italianhandgun]

To help assure my ranges think of it like this:

Imagine a spring that is as powerful as your arms. That is what is powering this gun. Plus these darts are vacuum loaded down to the end of the barrel. Also the gun is very comfortable to hold because its handle is the same size as a standard reactor and it essentially works the same. Lastly, its not just two shots, I can get 8 shots by shotgun loading taggers, but at this time I do not know the range for a shot like that.

I did something similar a while ago, but differently then yours. Instead of using pipe to connect the reactors at the front I used the handle from a longshot front blaster. It's very uncomfortable as their is very little place to grip it. The distance in between the reactors in smaller too.
Here are some pics:

I know taggers don't go inside barrels all the way. You know the whole tagger part doesn't let it. So I guess you mean streamlines?

The heads of Taggers make a perfect fit in 1/2" PVC.

I believe the ranges. I modded a petg'ed reactor which achieved ranges of 80 flat with stefans.

[Echnalaid]

This would be better with 2 inline clips. Ha! A dart shooting Pulsator! That would be an HvZ powerhouse!
I can account for crazy ranges with Reactors. I used ice's and Joe's, and they got 70 with an easy pump, and 80-85 with a good stroke.

Plus 1/2 PVC is great with taggers, a 2 ft tube makes an amazing blowgun with taggers.

[italianhandgun]

I just got outside and tested the ranges of the 8-shot burst

Ranges
30'*
30.5'*
31'*
51'
57'
60'
60'
63'

* These are with my crummy smaller barrel, normally would also be in the 50'-60' range.

@Echnalaid
I'm trying to work out a clip system for this gun, but by the way the gun works, its hard to have a single dart get loaded with a magazine.

[ilzot]

I don't want Talio in here yelling at me about my mom's cleanliness...

But it's not really that clean.

Looks pretty useful for close-range pain, but it's pretty fugly.

7/10.

[italianhandgun]

No offense Ilzot but form fits function, if you wanted to look at pieces of beautiful work you should have become an artist.

I'm working out a system to keep the darts from falling out of the barrel. I was thinking cut a slit in the barrel about 2cm in, and getting a thin piece of card board and a string to put in there to stop the darts from dropping out. Does anyone know if there is a flaw with this? I can't seem to find any, but maybe someone has experience with this.
