I was just wondering if there were any other write-ups of the Star Wars Clone Trooper Blaster besides the one with internals shown and the PETG one. This is crucial because I was deciding to do a full clean mod and write-up to my gun. I also had a few other very constructive ideas for it such as a shotgun grip and possible deodorant clip mod. The sky is the limit here (or as my budget allows). Thanks in advance.

The Clone Blaster's mod potential is sorely limited due to its priming mech and weak catch/trigger mechs. Even with reinforcement, the priming mech is such that adding a stronger spring is risky at best.

The best you can hope for is results similar to an oversized NiteFinder.

Deodorant clips, being gravity fed, limit the useful applications of a nerf gun. If you're modding it for general entertainment, they'll serve your purpose, however, if you are modding them for use in a nerf war you will find them unreliable while running and dodging.

Yeah I'm not planning on doing much more than shootin' up some friends with it. I do find though, more and more, that it does have a very limited potential. My BBB and NF are much more reliable and powerful. I do hope to be able to mod the Clone Trooper Blaster somehow for my contribution to the Modifications directory. Also the deodorant clip is a very impractical idea, I know this, but I would have wanted to try it anyway. You guys were right in the sense that it is an elongated NF, but I just wanted to know. Thanks again guys.
