Edit: Oh, and if you can get me a good sized side view of the gun I might be able to help a little more, I tried google but the biggest pic was only lik 150 by 300 pixels.

You could use my action design in a bullpup setup. Like Flamebo said you would likely have to use a compressed gas setup unless you relocated the plunger and spring.

Flamebo, I think it'd still work fine for a magazine fed gun too.It would work fine for a single-shot gun but would lower the power and make the gun bigger with the bolt action mag setup. I think I'll make that my next project, a gun like that would have a lot of power in a smaller package.
The design would basically be 3 layers of tubes, the outside is the bolt, 2nd layer is the reverse plunger tube, and the inner layer is the stationary plunger/barrel
edit: forgot to mention this: Yes the power would be substatially lower but I think that would be better that way. Then people don't have a reason to complain about a homemade hurting too much.

Here are the plans:
I decided it would be a little hard to find a way to make the mag work,
so im just taking out the scope and useing that area to store darts. And avery time you cock it, it opens the compartment dropping a dart in the barrel.

It's called a "bullpup" design, and I'm pretty sure that means that the clip is located behind the trigger assembly. It could be utilized in a nerf gun if the plunger was located somewhere else and connected to the rear of the bolt by a hose. You could probably place it in the upper part of the gun, and make up some kind of assembly that retracts the plunger with the bolt. But your plan is probably the easier way to do it, though it takes away some of the appeal if the mag isn't functional.If I used the magazine how would that work? The mag is placed wierdly on the gun itself. Doesnt the mag have to be connected to the barrel itself or like bolt has it? I was thinking of just leaving the mag there for decoration.

And where and how would you relocate the plunger?

A hose as in a 1/8 inch inner diameter plastic hose - you can get it at any hardware store and it's relatively flexible. I'd probably put the plunger above the barrel/bolt, and see if I could work out some kind of tab that connects the bolt to the plunger so retracting the bolt retracts the plunger directly above it.How would that work?.... What do you mean by a hose?
And where and how would you relocate the plunger?

A gun which expels a dart in slingshot fashion would probably have pretty horrible range. A darts just aren't heavy enough to have their momentum carry them through a barrel - plunger guns still utilize pressurized air to make sure the dart clears the barrel.How about making the plunger be moveable all the way from the front of the barrel to the rear. You could have a huge spring attached to the front of the plunger on the outside of the inner barrel with slots cut into it so it can carry the plunger correctly. To cock it, pull it allong the top of the gun, then when it gets over the back of the mag, bring it down where it locks into load position. After that, slide it forward into the trigger release, then it pulls the dart throughout the rest of the gun and expells it like a slingshot. I'm not sure if I'm making much sense to anyone, so I'll draw up a diagram of it later today.
