Alright, so what happened is I broke the tank by breaking the barrel/ release pin part.
So I gooped it back on. It works fine, except for the fact that it smokes when fired, and it shoots stock dars ~10 ft with 20 pumps. Also, I brassed it.

Goop will not hold something under that much pressure. The "smoke" is vapor. There's probably a leak that leaks after the pressure gets to a certain point. Rip it apart and use epoxy and then reinforce with putty.

Do stock darts fit brass? What size brass did you use?

So, I know we talked about this over the chat, and you said you couldn't order epoxy or putty online, and you couldn't get it at Home Depot. I have a feeling that you could in fact find it at that home depot. If none of the employees know what they're doing (that's the case with most home depots, that's why I prefer my local and much, much smaller Ace) then look around for the adhesives section. You may also have luck with the plumbing section (especially for the putty).
You also said that you could order the said supplies from an NH member. There's plenty of people willing to do that on this site. Just post a WTB thread.
Edit: First determine that it is in fact leaking. Pressurize the blaster with the tank underwater. Basically just the intertube leak finding method.
2nd Edit: A better method would be IPS Plastic Weld-On. I think the number 3 version is the one you'd need. Although, I've never seen this in stores. Online would probably be your only option here.
