Take the plunger apart (take note of the order of things):

Take the orange disc that was behind the white tube in front of the white tube. It should look like this:

Wrap take around the back of the white tube. Not too much, just enough to keep the spring behind it:

Fit the Plunger tube and Plunger rod back into the shell and fully draw the plunger rod. Then make a mark where it comes out of the shell:

Line up the mark you made with the back of the shell and make a mark where the orange disc we moved sits on the plunger tube:

Make a line along the bottom of the plunger tube and make a mark all the way around the plunger tube using your previous mark:

Make a clothespin trigger like so: http://nerfhaven.com...showtopic=20296
(Adjust the nail as needed) I didn't use epoxy putty to fill it, it isn't holding back a [k26]. I filled it with hot glue after I put the nail in.
Glue it to the Plunger tube:

Put the plunger into the plunger tube:

Assemble the blaster with your choice of barrel system and enjoy your trigger! I am using a 3 streamline/6 stefan RSCB.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADDING A STOCK.
First, gather the materials:

Take the endcap, mark, and drill the holes like this (drill bit size depends on the screw size)

Drill corresponding holes in the back of the Xblaster:

Screw the endcap onto the back of the blaster:

Lay out the rest of the materials like so. (you can use a 1/2" 90 instead of the 1/2" tee)

Fit them all together. Glue is optional.

I hope this helps all of you with these blasters and were pissed they didn't have a trigger.
With a 12 stefan hopper with a homemade wye (http://www.nerfrevol....php?f=9&t=3317) and a 12" cpvc barrel, it averages around 83'
Singled with a 14" cpvc barrel, it averages around 90'
All tests done with Revisionfive's Pool noodle darts (http://www.nerfrevol...php?f=26&t=3633)
Here is a picture of the wye I used:
