If you don't have enough time to have a write up, then why are you posting?

[Whisper101]

Man, that looks really nice, but as Hummer said, wait until you can really put some effort into the post before you actually make it.

This looks interesting. I love the stock, I was considering slicing off the bladder there and gluing it up there as a stock. This is way better though.

You know you could have cut away the blocking ridges of plastic, so the bladder could expand more. People have gotten 3 mags outta that stock bladder.

But then, this is just too sexy to pass up.

Is the pump glued where it is in the pic, or is it loose? If it's loose, do you plan to glue it into the stock position?

As for the paintjob, I think a bright, metallic blue, drybrushed with black. Also weathering like gouges and stuff. Black and silver highlights, not drybrushed, just for detail work. That'd look sick on something with a stock as big as that, cuz there aren't that many details there.

He doesn't need to post a write up, because this has been done several times, before. if you can't figure out how to attach a larger PVC tank in place of the bladder, then you probably wouldn't be able to assemble it properly, either.

My question is; how many extra pumps does it take to get to the 3 clips? I remember another nerfer friend of mine did this (only without the stock) using a bike pump, and it still took about 35 pumps.

That is actually pretty cool. Pretty big, too. Not sure how practical it would be in a war, but
I guess it's whatever floats your boat.

Ok guys question answering time!! But first i just want to say that the main reason i didn't post a writeup is because this mod is so flexible. You can put the air tank on the side, bottom, front, back, and pretty much anywhere. Also i used extremly thick plexiglass so you have to use a chopsaw to cut it. If you don't have one you won't be able to do this mod. Ok now to the questions!!

Angelfalcon-the pump is loose because i haven't gotten around to glueing it because i am working on another mod. I will probley glue it sunday or monday

Wes7143-it takes a crapload of pumps to get it fully inflated, so much i am considering useing a bike pump.

HOTH-i made this gun so big and heavy because i am used to shooting metal airsoft guns not nerf guns. It just make it better for me.

dartmaster1101-no, the gun is very comfortable and fits my playing style (charge and shoot)

Hope that answers all of your questions for now!
