Well this is my attempt at a first post. I'm hoping I don't get banned for asking a noob question.OK so yesterday I was having a nerf war because I had just finished my CPVCed Big Salvo. I was kicking butt when my dad comes up to me and starts going on about how his DTB wasn't firing. I thought, well I'll go get him a different gun and fix the DTB later. So after the war I opened the gun and was pretty shocked. I had never seen anything like this. The plunger snapped right in half. I am unable to post pictures because I just woke up and it's 5:50. I guess I'll just try to draw it.

The weird thing is is that it snapped in half right on the catch. I'll try to glue it with some loctite epoxy because thats what I have. So I guess all I am asking is what should I try to use to connect the two pieces or should I just scrap it and make my dad buy me a new gun of around the same price.(sorry for the run on sentence) If I just scrap it what would be a good war worthy gun. Sorry if someones already come up with a fix for this. I searched and didn't find one. Unless you count finding how to fix a broken PAS plunger with blurry images as a fix.

Epoxy should work, but make shore to put epoxy on the side of the plunger to.

Thanks guys. I sort of did what was in the link for a plunger fixing. It should work really good. I drilled a hole through each broken piece and ran some really thick wire through it and then put epoxy over it. I definetly recommend using loctite brand epoxy. It is dry now an it is harder and stronger than the original plunger.
