I found copper at my local Home Depot and found that it is a little heavy and doesn't fit darts very well. Not good barrel material. At least for my darts.

Copper pipe is non-traditional barrel material, and it's heavy, but some people's darts fit in it very well. To each their own.

Well then what is this site for. Nerf last I checked. Now he was asking how to clean the pipe so he could use it on a nerf gun. So don't try to come in here yelling at people.. Also here we all answer many off topic questions like "should I get a PSP or X-Box 360." Don't come in here and be like this. I understand but please use your head. Also I would bet if you look at the pipes in your basement they are very dirty too. Especially if they have been sitting unatched to something.OK, I can't help it. This is not the place to be asking about having your pipes cleaned. There are other sites for that and I didn't need to know that your "basement piping" is "really dirty".

Anyhow, what length of pipe is it? If you really want to use copper, you may just be better off buying a foot or two for $2 at Home Depot, rather than waste some lemons. If it's a lot of pipe it may be good to rescue it...
If anything, I find that copper pipes make good blowguns. My favorite primary is a 4' section of copper piping. Of course, if I had any brass, I might favor that... I haven't had the money or initiave to order online yet, and good luck finding brass tubing in western PA. It's nigh impossible. Of course, since I spraypaint my darts hunter orange (makes them actually findable), and I think they tend to be a bit thicker than most people's micros in the first place, I get a better fit in copper. While I might skip using it as a barrel material, it definitely works out very well as a blowgun.
Still, it seems like something quite heavy to mount a barrel in. I don't know if mounting something in copper would actually help.

Of course it was a joke. Used to be a time when someone would post something dirty and you could run with it. Who was it that posted detailed instructions on blowing darts down a barrel. Man, those were the days.
