Cmon people, learn to actually pay attention. Just do as you would to a scout or a crossfire. Ok?

Just keep working, and if you brake a gun, don't worry about it, its not like a Sm5000 or a Crossbow.
Yeah, it's only $30 compared to $50 right?
Yeah, I was a total dumbass when I was new so it's excusable if you've never opened a gun before. I just assumed since you knew the terminology that you could figure out what to do. Basically search for "Scout mod" and do what ompa did to his, pretty much exactly. I did these exact mods to my LS pistol in fact, and it's getting a respectable 40' flat. So just find ompa's mod, open the gun and dig in!

(Ah, finished the pizza and washed my hands, time for 69 WPM)
Then I found out that 1/2" cpvc fit perfectly into there. Duh, it's a xfire clone, right?

Life sucks when you find an easier way to do something AFTER you did it the hard way.
Lesson, get something that'll fit into the female plunger and wrap clear tape over it until it will move in and out of the female part smoothly (if you are over 13, which you should be, you have to understand the deeper meaning of my words if you want to do this mod correctly ) but will not fall out of the female part unless you pull it out.
1) open gun
2) get barrel, wrap tape, blah blah
3) place barrel in female plunger and make sure it moves in and out nice and smooth and that it will tolerate repeated action until the barrel explodes
4) be sure that you knew step 3 is not absolutely necessary
5) fit all innards into the case
6) glue the barrel into place and make sure it can't move anymore because from now on, the female part will do all the work
7) close case and put more glue around the barrel to make it stable, trust me when I say "Don't let it move!"
8) load dart and hope it fires
If it doesn't fire, your barrel might be too tight. This gun is so weak, it's not funny. Especially if it's the only thing you have at the moment and you're in you friend's basement having a little skirmish.
The information I just gave you is not complete. I will not baby you through the entire process. I like getting noobs on the right track. I hate when noobs don't take my help and decide to put garbage on this great site. Not that I want to play moderator, but the place is my haven (yes, yes, the pun is intended) and I love this place. I don't like when things I love are full of garbage. Yes, that means hookers too. I will do whatever I can to make this place better (better for mature people) because this is home for my greatest and most time consuming hobby.
So good luck and try to fill in the blanks without asking for more help. It'll make you feel better than if you asked for someone to hold your hand.
PM me if you need a question answered, but make sure it's worth my time, and I'll probably make you find the answer for yourself.
And so in the words of the Family Guy universe Spiderman...
Everybody gets one...
Have a nice day

I agree with Hokiefan, Nerfmonkey, chill man. Maverick x is new so give him a break. He probably is very new and unexperienced to modding. Maverick x, dont listen to guys like Nerfmonkey, hes just likes to pick on people on internet forums. Hey, just get some nitefinders and practice, then move on.
Your picking on someone right now, douche. I wasn't remotely good at modding. But I searched the forums, tried many different types of mods, thought of new ideas. My first mods weren't good. So I was able to salvage and do another one. After that mod I found something better I would do that.
In response to the topic I know many people have said it, but try a mod on some cheaper guns. Maybe make a diagram of the guns internals, case sizes, and sizes of possible moding materials I.E crayolla, CPVC, brass PETG, etc. Then draw out different ideas you have. When you find the one thats sure to work. Try it out. If you mess up try again. If you hurt the gun then try to find a way so salvage it and try it again or another mod. Kinda like a trial and error type deal.

Here is a picture of the gun's internals when I modded it. I took the picture to add to my nerf website... coming soon.

Enjoy!
Whoa, how did I not notice this thread? I asked for some internal pics of the front gun a few weeks back, with no response. Thanks for that.

1. The pluger tube has two raised grooves on it. These slide along plastic walls on either side of the case. make sure that those match up.
2. The hinge pin for the trigger catch. make sure that goes into it's resptove spot on the opposite side of the case.
If number two is not followed, the trigger won't pull. Maybe that's your problem.
