I haven't gotten around to really doing anything to Ellen Page yet, as I was just in China for a month. Got lots of cool stuff planned though.
I was dicking around with the blaster today, and realized a Raider priming handle had a nice friction fit in the front area of the gun. Cleanest integration ever, lulz.

I'm not sure if this counts as a mod or a home-made, so I'm going to post it here for now.

I'm calling it the sinkfinder, due to the fact that it is a nitefinder with a sink drain plunger tube and a bathtub plug plunger head.

Posted Image

Uses a magnetic holster

Posted Image

The plunger head gets a near perfect seal, though I did have to cut it down a bit

Posted Image

Hits 90-100' with an 8.5" cpvc barrel

(Lame 1st post, but whatever)
AR removal, spring addition, padded plunger head, increased seal, reinforced boltsled, "stockblock", and frontgun integration. Basically the standard list of longshot mods. I attempted my first paint job, but unfortunately I would rank it at under "fangtastic"... which is quite a disappointment. Oh well, I guess there's nowhere to go but up from here.

First post ever, woo!

I recently broke into painting, and used my friend's Praxis as a test. While there are some imperfections, I'm happy with the results:

I should have waited longer for the paint to have cured before I put on the painter's tape.

Currently painting my girlfriend's Maverick. I'll post that when it's done.

Management told me that I wasn’t allowed to have a Nerf Gun on me at work, so now I have a watch.

MODS:
• AR Removal
• Custom Paint Job
• Custom Cosmetic Additions

Followed the Banshee Candy Coating guide on this Maverick for my girlfriend (I even used purple because she wanted purple). Pleased with the results.

I had it perfect (no visible orange peeling and shiny as hell) for a few days, but noticed I missed some areas with the clear coat. I ran out of Rust-Oleum on one side, and so I switched to Krylon on the side with the barrel drop button. Bad idea. Ruined the finish on that side. Looks good despite.

Nothing too special. I clip converted my Barricade using a Recon magwell, and added a barrel attachment piece so I can attach my front grip I made from a leftover LSFG. Still a work in progrees. I just completed a decent stepping stone towards the final product. It still needs a lot of cosmetic work, 9V upgrade, automatic firing capability (gearbox is finished),stefan compatability and a slick paint job. I'm thinking purple. If I can get all of the above completed successfully and cleanly, this should make for a really mean HVZ blaster(it can potentailly shoot 6 darts/second 40 ft.), or war worthy secondary. If I can pull it all off I'll post a writeup.

Saw THIS last week and got inspired:

Posted Image

I used a larger, two stroke pump that fills the Titan tank in one in-out cycle.

Posted Image

The front bushing was puttied on in my earlier modding days, so it's not the cleanest, but it still works fine. This is a pretty easy thing to do overall. The Tec-Six trigger is perfect for fitting over the Titan firing pin. You just have to dremel a lot out of the shell. You lose a few screw posts in the process, hence the bolt through the top.

Glad to see another "Tek Titan"!! Good job man. When I built mine I was surprised how well the titan tank fit
In the Tek 6 shell. Almost made for it.

Allow me introduce you to Sasha:

Posted Image

Normally I wouldn't give a blaster a name like this but this girl has some personality. She's somewhat temperamental when being reassembled (if her magwell is screwed in too tight, darts can't advance at all- too loose and she locks up like crazy). Obviously, she's based on the Sonic series 'Pede and has been cut down to an SGNerf style SMG. The physical capabilities are standard modded 'Pede but I've taught her a couple neat tricks:

Posted Image

This is her brain: the Arduino Nano based on the ATMega168. The idea to use this is from d4rk354b3r (over on the hvz forums) and his Rayven ammo counter. I rewrote the sourcecode from scratch and added the ability to display double dashes when no mag is inserted. I also upgraded the state change detection on the magazine and trigger switches.

Posted Image

Sorry about the poor image quality, my camera doesn't like the led display and translucent shell.

Posted Image

The default magazine setting is for 18 rounders but that's not all she can do:

Posted Image

The rotary switch in the grip also lets her accommodate 12, 25, and 35 round mags.

Posted Image

The ammo counter circuit is completely separate from the firing circuit. Any failure in one is completely contained and has no effect whatsoever on the other.

Posted Image

This piece is on the main circuit. Also inspired by d4rk354b3r, this voltmeter allows monitoring of Sasha's power to give an idea of how much juice she has left.

Posted Image

She's a very pretty lady.

Longshot with pump-action and slamfire. Just a little demo vid

My phone was in an awkward position which made the firing a little wonky. If it looks a little awkward to fire that is why.
When I took this I had just got done fixing some stuff and still had a light spring in that I could pull back by hand while the blaster was open to test it out. This is just a little preview since some people expressed interest, I'll do a write up on here eventually http://nerfmodsandnews.blogspot.com/

I'll post up the important parts of the write up here too, it's just I'd have to reformat so much stuff to get the full version over here and have it look presentable.

Nine, that paint-job is certified bad ass.
Darth, awesome Longshot! I really like the pump-action ness.....
Anyway, I just finished some HvZ primaries

Longshot with basic mods. I bet everyone knows what they are because you've probably modded one already. :P

I did this.*

*I may or may not have done this.

Just like I pioneered the wye handle on Sceptors, I am pioneering long-exposure no-flash night shots of Nerf blasters. Also the Longstrike stock is the best stock on this gun.

For the curious: The pump handle is called a "trap joint."

This is a Mad Hornet. It is the best shell, with the worst internals. Plugged pump, a billion pumps, full turret of darts, twenty feet.
