So let’s get this thing started:
Open up your longshot and take out everything. The only parts you will need for this portion of the mod are as follows:
Now take the shell and Prepare to reinforce it.
You will be reinforcing this:
This part of the mod is important because it increases the life of your longshot.
I used knex and hot glue to reinforce, but you can use any thing that you want.
Next you are going to close up your gun then trace an out line of ½ in. cpvc on the back and cut it out like so:
Now set your shell off to the side.
Take out your bolt. Remove the back screws, take out the spring. Cut the bolt and remove like so:
Now take some ½ in. cpvc and single your long shot with it like so:
The cpvc runs through the back of the piece and is hot glued in place.
Now superglue it to the back of the plunger chamber.
Next glue on a ½ in. cpvc coupler.
Now cut yet another piece if ½ in cpvc and insert half or it into your desired length of ½ PVC. (This will be for the inline clip, what ever length you choose is the length of your clip.)
Glue it all together and you should have this:
Next take a small length of PETG and E-tape both ends so that the one fits snugly in the PVC and the other in a ½ in. cpvc coupler.
Glue it all together and you will have this:
Congrats you just inlined your Longshot.
Now take your plunger out. Now cut a small length of ¼ in. copper tubing. Super glue it into your Plunger rod.
Then put ½ in. cpvc over the copper that is hanging over. Superglue it in place.
Next add what ever springs which you desire, strengthen the catch spring and put the gun back together.
Now take a ½ in cpvc t-coupler and drill a hole through the coupler.
Once the hole is drilled insert the cpvc from the back of the gun and then screw it all together.

Start by unscrewing the back of a recon stock.
Now widen this hole so that ¼ in. copper can fit through.
Next take a nub of the copper and a nub ½ in. cpvc both of about equal length and put half of the copper in the cpvc:
Next Epoxy putty the nub of copper into the widened hole.
Then attach a cpvc coupler on to it.
Next take a ¾ in cpvc Coupler and cut it like so:
Next insert a ½ in to ¼ in cpvc reducer into the whole hole.
Hot glue it onto the Recon stock like so:
For this next portion you will need:
Cut a long length of cpvc.
Set up the parts like so:

Then hot glue the orange piece:
Then add the stock.
For the next part you will need the following:
For this part there is no need to use whole cpvc, you can just use scraps as pictured.
Hot glue the two knex.
Then glue cpvc scraps on to the knex until it looks like this:
Now attach the cpvc to the reducer like so:
I added e-tape so that it looked better. Also make sure the 2 knex are flat against the bottom of the longshot.
Next hot glue the knex on to the longshot shell.
Take this piece:
Fill the cavity with a shit load of hot glue.
Place it on top of the knex.
And that is it. Here is what I turned it into:

How sturdy is the stock? I wouldn't think hot glue would be strong enough to hold it.
The stock is solid. It does not bend, flex, or distort in any way.

i expecially enjoy the double shot integration!
i cant say that i would sack my LS to do this or buy a new one for this purpose but if i had an extra laying around i may concider playing off of this idea.

Pullbacks have always had a special place in my heart, though, so I'll let this one pass.
