I did a pretty extensive minimization to a nitron. I found that without the from part of the blaster the discs started to veer left instead of right when exiting the barrel.
It looks like the issue with discs veering to the right with nitrons is actually caused by them bouncing off the left side of the barrel which probably causes a good bit of loss in range.
Without the loss of velocity from bouncing in the barrel the nitron might be able to get some impressive ranges with a volt mod.




I also tried weighted discs putting a thick bead of hot glue all the way around the inside of the disc. My theory was that the drag on the discs from air resistance was too much for the discs mass to take full advantage of added power. At 15v the nitron is getting far better ranges with the weighted discs. I can't measure now and probably wont ever take the time to do so.

The nitron is the only vortex that can weight discs around the inner ring do to the way ther torsion springs fling the discs using the inner ring.

That's going to look incredibly silly with a 40 round drum mag.

So do a bunch of adults running around shooting each other with plastic toys, but that doesn't seem to deter most of us.

How did you manage to minimize the dart pusher assembly? Does it just cram into the back part of the pistol?

Made it a semi auto since the gear ratio of the stock mechanism made it so that no matter how much juice you pumped in it, it was still slow.

Great job with the mod and all, but are you going to be making a write-up? If not your post doesn't really belong here.

[Darthrambo]

I was just sharing the info on the barrel bounce and the weighted discs. If a few people ask for a write up I'll do one.

could you make a write up for this? i love minimized guns. i have a smg stampede that i just finished a few days ago

It should be fairly self-explanatory from the pictures. All the cuts he made are clearly pictured, as well as his solution for re-positioning the dart pusher and the battery packs.

(Though I don't want to discourage Darthrambo from making a more thorough writeup)
