So I noticed that the section for the Alpha Trooper in the modifications directory was blank. Just wondering, has anyone put a brass barrel into their Alpha Trooper?

What dimensions (diameter and length) of brass do you nest together? I know that 17/32 brass is the ideal diameter for streamline darts.

(Sorry if these questions seem a bit trivial. I want to know before I commit to buying relatively expensive brass that I won't be able to physically examine for myself.)

The plunger tube? Wouldn't that block the clip feed?

And again... I am asking for dimensions because I do not have physical access to the brass that I am buying.

Most reverse plunger blasters don't have the necessary air output to effectively move darts from a brass barrel. Your best bet is to just stick a stub of 17/32 brass in the bolt so that there is greater pressure built up behind the dart before it exits the blaster. If you're really after a brass breech for it then look up how to make one for a long shot and take your own measurements for your AT.

Blue has a nice writeup for a brassed recon. The reverse plunger magazine-fed blasters are all very similar inside, so you should be able to adapt it pretty easily.
