This is my Singled Titan, at the Front
Its your normal Barrel, Its a 1in (Or 1/2in) Copper Barrel, With CPVC (Or PVC) Pipe covering it and adding a better Seal. And at the back is a Thick, Long rubber tube(And it isnt Hot Glued)


I simply took out the useless Pressure Gauge, Sealed the tube going to it, Moved the Pump to the side for Convenient Pumping. And I also Removed the useless Giant Pump from the back, and I also removed one of the "handles" from the front, so it is more Pistol like, but still is one of the most powerfull guns made by nerf. (Or any off-brand. Not including the custom ones)

Sorry again for Fuzzy pictures.

You do notice that this wouldn't be war legal right? But if you did this only for the heck of modding, good for you, but this isn't anything new or special. Good singled Titan anyways.

And I hope you have a good dart/barrel fit with that copper barrel.

There are a few things wrong here:
1.) Your barrel is incredibly short, much too short for anything with near the power of a titan. You're going to want more like 12-18 inches of a barrel.
2.) Why on Earth did you use Copper? It has a horrible dart fit with any 1/2" sized darts, and is way heavy, as well as it just sucks. Brass is much better for something like this, 9/16" inch preferably.
3.) This really is just you showing off your uh... Titan. Not anything else, it doesn't really help anybody. Usually only write-ups deserve their own thread, and things like these go in the Modifcations / Painjob pictures thread. It's sticked in the Modifications section, go find it.
As for the rest of the gun, good job with the minimization, it seems like you are a bit new to modifying nerf blasters, so props for that.

First, you don't know what foam this kid's using. Stop blindly believing everything you read here because a lot of it is bullshit. Second, I think 12-18" of brass (as you suggested) would be a lot heavier than 1" of copper so saying it's heavy isn't really a good argument here. And third, brass isn't the be-all-end-all material. Just because the Modification Gods use it doesn't mean everyone else has to too.

Use whatever fits your own darts, not just what someone else uses. People have been saying "x material sucks, use y material instead" as long as I can remember and it's just not true.

Besides, brass is pretty damn expensive, or unavailable to most nerfers.

Pretty sweet, but I see no pump. Or is the pump the little white thing above and to the side of the barrel? Oh, and how did you single it? I'm thinking of doing this to my Titan, even though it wouldn't be war-legal.

Not really a writeup, but the mod is cool. You might want to give it a multiple-barrel attatchment or else you will never be able to use it in an NIC war.

Well, if he's using copper than most likely 1/2", possibly even stock darts if he hadn't his own foam. I didn't read that post over again, and I apologize, Brass would be just lighter than Copper, and even then a longer barrel it would feel like the same. Brass, at least in my experience has been very useful with most powerful air guns like an AT3K or Big Blast.
I've made the exact same mistake when I was quite new to nerf mods and I just Put some CPVC or something on there and singled a titan. I'm thinking of my past mistakes and associating them with this person's mod, so I'm probably wrong about a couple of the things I said.

Lots of flamers flaming flames around here.

Also, Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

As for the mod in question, I'd at least like to see some better shots of the whole blaster. You can't really see much of it, or much of what you've done, in the pics you've provided. In any case, good job for what work you've done.

There is nothing new about this mod, and as such it belongs in the mods/paintjobs thread.
