Hello everyone! (you can call me Xeno for short if you want) Im new here! Anyways on to the mod:





Materials:

Stream Machine water gun

air compressor hose

an RSCB or Hopper Clip

a large hose clamp

zip ties

PVC cement or other adhesive

a PVC 2" threaded male fitting

the front end of a BBB plunger (at least thats what I used but you could probably use something else)











As you can see I was nice enough to take apart my blaster as much as I could and rebuild it for this write up. I couldent get these two pieces off because they are PVC cemented on. now then. Step 1: remove the nozzle of your stream machine. mine was threaded on so that wasn't a problem for me.

after that take the PVC 2" threaded male fitting and glue it to where the nozzle used to be. then I took my BBB plunger section and glued it into the fitting:



Step 2: get about 4" of air compressor hose and jam one end of it it into the barrel. you don't really need to glue it in:




Step 3: take the other end of the hose and jam it into the RSCB like so:




Step 4: place the hose clamp like so and tighten it alot, but not too much or it will break the plastic:




Step 5: take a zip tie and place loop it around the barrel of the BBB and the feeding tube of the RSCB. This it to help stabilize the RSCB and to make a strap point on the blaster:




And you should end up like something like this!:




will measure ranges soon but I do know it is getting way over 100' with elite darts. The RSCB holds 5 elite darts but hopefully I will start making stefans soon.

Reminds me of a HAMP. I like this design a lot better though, cause it's more compact, looks very ergonomic, and probably performs just as well as HAMP. Might be a little more expensive than a HAMP, but I think it would be totally worth it. Nice first post, keep em coming.

[Xenomorph1320-D]

I have abandoned this idea because it was too inaccurate due to the barrel moving around so much during firing. I have decided to rebuild it again. As a hoppered HAMP. Pics/writeup/video as soon as I get my hands on a 1/2" PVC wye. see you then!


If no one else has anything to say about the original RSCB Stream machine then Moderators. Please close this thread.

Is there a way to reverse the airflow so that it comes from the rear of the plunger? Perhaps a check valve? You could mount the RSCB on the grip and have the plunger move freely back and forth, while retaining a fixed barrel. Would also make for a shorter blaster and easier reloading.

Use two 90 degree elbows, and turn the barrel system around. Then turn the whole blaster around and use it like a hamp. I'm sure the grip wouldn't be hard to cut off and turn either, or just replace with a pvc elbow and stub of whatever would fit on the pump rod.

LOL That's exactly what I'm doing XD

Works for ballistic balls too.
