Unusual Modification

Now, I have a rather deviated thought process. I dceided that I could do better. So i took one of my RF20 guns and began to modify it for full-auto rice dispersal. I also came across some problems, like getting the gun opened up, getting the turret back inside the gun, getting all the barrels to fire again, and most importantly, stopping the rice from falling inside the gun's internal mechanics and jamming up everything (although the biggest problem was that I never modded a single fucking gun in my life). I removed all of the barrel posts, but I've been without a clue as to how I should proceed after that. I was thinking of using a piece of metal screen sandwiched between the two sections of the turret assembly to eliminate the rice getting inside the gun's mechanics, but after that, I will be lost again.
I know it is a rather unique mod, but if anyone out there can help me, it would be really appreciated.

As for barrel material, just use whatever is easiest to cram rice into. As with a dart, the more airtight the fit, the better... but I guess with rice that's hard to say.
One problem I project will be ranges. While that At2k can shoot rice 12,' it can shoot a dart 100 feet. An RF20 can shoot a dart 25 feet, so if you put that into proportion, you shouldn't be getting more than 3' with rice. If you want rate of fire, maybe stick with a 3k (auto-rotating).
I just don't think an RF20 has the power you need.
As for the rice, I would barely moisten it (hold it above evaporating water for a couple minutes) to increase the seal potential. But too wet could make it harder to get out of the barrel.

Really, it should work out decently well. The rice's limitation comes from its natural tendency to not fly, not from the lack of power of the gun, so you should be able to get a nice spread and reasonably decent distance. Maybe not 12', but probably around 10' or so.
Yeah, I'd like a follow-up on this myself.

My suggestion is to actually stick one sliver in (and it can be really thin, too, from my experiments), pour in the rice, and put another one on top to create a tighter seal and to stop the rice from falling out.
You might want to think about putting a piece of FBR on top too, to keep the rice from falling out if you tilt the gun in the wrong direction.
Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to get the quotes in a specific order.
