Ok, I am trying to figure out how I can mod my mad hornet so it doesnt completly suck. The problem is that since the pump/tank/valve/trigger are all built in one big piece I cant take it apart without screwing up the tank. Also the trigger system is gimped, the air output is also the trigger which is fired by having part of the barrel push down on the valve pin.so the air delivery system has one piece pusing down and one pushing up and then for some dumb reason the barrels arent actually glued into the rotator so there are 4 places this gun can leak air before you even get to the barrel =(I can not figure out how to get rid of these leaking points without screwing up the gun, and because of the way it is build I cant even single barrel mod the damn thing. Any ideas?

Wow is that a PC bladder powering a single shot? Does it work well?

IT'S THE FRANKEN-HORNET!!

No, it's just a normal Mad Hornet with a PC bladder replacing the solid air tank. Bladders allow for constant pressure, so your shots don't get weaker as you fire more. This one is too flimsy to be war effective, but you could easily make this surpass the Blastfire. This prototype fires around 12 shots(2 loads of darts) on a full bladder, all around 50'. Here's what I did.

-Cut off the back part of the case to make room for new air tank(you might not want to cut off as much as I did)
-Cut off the white part of the air tank. LEAVE THE GREEN PART IT'S ATTACHED TO.
-Attach the outgoing tube from the bladder to the outgoing hole in the green part. This hole leads to the trigger system, and then to the barrel.
-Take out the MH pump, and cut down the green part to make room for the PC pump.
-Try to glue, tape, epoxy everything in place(this is the part my gun falls short on)


I'd be glad to answer specific questions that you run into while making this...monster, but I'm too lazy to try to write up a clear guide.
