I apologize in advance if this is not original. I just figured it out myself.
There are many nerfers like me who are not allowed to use stefans, and must use stock darts. Usually, your options are limited to either using stock megas or sticking a crayola in the relocated barrel.
New mod: So simple, pictures aren't necessary.
Relocate the stock barrel.
To do this, remove the tubing from either end of the barrel and plunger tube.
Remove the spring from inside.
Cut a ~1 inch section of the tubing.
Remove yellow piece from forward exit of gun (where ammo holders attach).
Connect the stock barrel and plunger tube with the ~1 inch section of tubing.
Thrust the barrel out of the forward exit of the gun. With a little modification, you should be able to fit it in there without cutting the screw-hole. The "edge" of the barrel should keep it inside the case and straight ahead.
Close up your gun, the rest is external.
Take a crayola barrel (hollow out a crayola or preferrably "rose art" marker) and wrap it in e-tape so that when you put it down the stock barrel, it will stay there firmly.
Make sure it is VERY SECURE. Now, cut a 7 inch section of .5 inch sch. 40 pvc. Attach it to a pvc coupler as securely as you can. If need-be, hot glue it.
Wrap the stock barrell in enough e-tape so that the coupler fits relatively snugly on it, but can still be removed with a hard tug/twisting motion. No should be used, because this will be your breech mechanism.
Now, attach the stock barrel to the pvc coupled pvc pipe.
Congratulations, you have just created a pvc breach that fires stock micros-in under a half hour!!!
To operate, stick a stock dart into the crayola that is nested in your stock barrel. Then, put the coupler over it securely. Fire! Remove coupler, replace dart, and repeat!
You can either integrate an at2k/ sspb into the original barell hole or stick a crayola in their like an ammo holder.
You should be getting ranges anywhere from 60-70 feet accurately, flat. As for ROF, I can get off about 1 shot every 4 seconds with a little practice.
EDIT: Official Ranges:
Flat: 56', 61', 58'; ACCURATELY.
Angled: 72', 74', 77'; Fairly accurate with ~30 degree angle. (45 degree is maximum range, but not accurate at all: more like a mortar)
Enjoy,

Just a question. Why the heck cant you use stefans.

My case actually isn't so rare. Many Nerfers like me have overprotective parents who won't let them use anything that isn't made by the company as a projectile. They just care about me and don't understand. Also, stefans are dangerous to use indoors, which is mostly where I NERF.
Hope that answers your question,

Try to take pictures. Good mod write ups these days usually have them. Take some pics of what you did and have them go along with your directions. Another thing you may want to try doing is posting some accurate range measurements with the gun parallel to the ground and at an angle.

Shinny: About the pictures, I don't have a digital camera, so I can't post pics, but I'll edit some ranges into the original mod in a few minutes after I range test it.
Thanks for the feedback,

EDIT: Ranges are in. Surprisingly good.
