This is just a simple barrel, but it's really fun.

I was out shopping yesterday (and found a variable medley of stuff, some of which you may see soon) and found these Zoom-o refill packs for $1 per at Walmart.
After playing with them, I found they fit quite nicely into the Titan's orange rocket barrel.

A very simple mod. All you need is:
Titan barrel
A gun with a large airtank that the barrel fits on

Cut out the baffling AR at the end of the barrel, but leave a small lip around the edge so it catches the balls. Load in up to 5 balls and fire.



When fired, it shoots the balls in a staggered fashion, about half a second behind each other. This allows you to swing the barrel when firing to create a spread of fire.

Ranges, from a Titan @ 60psi are about 25', not great, but it's a shotgun. Arched, this would be excellent to rain down foam death at people behind small walls.

That's purty freaking ninja in my opinion.

2009 is the year of the shotty mod: way to bring the innovation!

I can see this being good to clear an area around a flag station or The Core, so there might be practical use here. Not that “practical” is the only reason to mod a blaster, this deal looks just fun to have around.

If you have a job in a cube farm I can see you freaking out your neighbor with a shower of balls, that might also be fun.

Fantastic!
That sounds like the best ball launcher for a titan.

Instead of changing both the barrel and ammo you just changed the ammo.

That looks like a great ball launcher.

Try and find a way that you can load in like 3 Zoom o balls and have them advance as you shoot kind of like a
pump action shotgun.

I will try tomorrow.

That's what my dad said. But considering the priming time large air tanks like the Titan have anyway, it wouldnt be too much extra time to simply load one ball at a time. That said, the best chance of something like this working while keeping it simple is having a bigger lip on the end of the barrel or using a large O-ring (like the Reactor). I've never really tried anything yet, as I'm pretty happy with it as is, but I'll see about monkeying with it this week.

Where in the store are these usually located?

[SPV999]

Sorry it's been a few days.

These can be found usually with the Nerf stuff. However, they seem to be clearanceing them out, so you might try the clearance section if your store has one.

And for what took so long: I finally got a video!
