Hey guys and gals, I recently bought a broken roughcut from goodwill in hopes that I could fix it. After opening it up, I realized that the gears were stripped. Notice how I said "Gears"? Well instead of it being that tiny gear that people always manage to strip, it is that; and the gear that is underneath the largest gear in the blaster.

I was hoping if anyone could point me in the right direction as to where I could find a FULL gear replacement.

Thanks for the help,

Your best bet would be finding something on the internet and printing one through a service like shapeways.

Go to a hobby store, the types that sell robotic kits and such. Depending on the store, you can probably find some gear replacements. The ones in my area sell metal gears that are almost impossible to strip. Just bring the stripped gear, and find which one matches it.
If not, just scrap the blaster for its springs and pump grip. You can integrate the pump handle into a Longshot fairly well...

Good luck

Bubba
