This is my first complete mod write-up so, enjoy!

here is a picture of the gun:


ya, I know, the hotglue makes it look kind of sloppy but it is effective.
Step 1: hot glue the pressure chamber and the power gauge. glue the chamber on the bottom and the gauge on the side so it is sticking out
Step 2:attach the pump to the side of the gun. Move it foward or backwards depending on your what you prefer.
step 3: add the barrel and barrel stablizers. take a small 3in piece of 9/16 brass tubing and hot glue it on to the chamber. Then take 2 1in pieces of pvc pipe and glue them onto the barrel and the side of the gun for stabillity.
step 4: add the key-ring. simply attach the ring to the firing for easy pulling.

ranges: *note* the maxshot and at2k have already been modded before I combined them.The at2k has a plugged pump and the maxshot I just added a new barrel.
range on at2k-90ft
range on maxshot-80ft

Been done before but very nice write-up. This would be hard to get clean with no adhesive showing but all in all you did a very nice job.

Thanks, I'm off for the night.

I think that Dave's looks better than Vasseli's because Vasseli used e-tape all over the thing.

I don't know if we can call this a true "integration".


It's more or less some AT2000 internals, minus trigger assembly, hotglued to the bottom of a MaxShot.


While it is indeed integrated, in the most raw form of the word (to incorporate two items to become one functional item), it lacks creativity in form and improved function. Most anyone can slap their naked 2Ks to anything with hot glue.

Is there any way to contain the internals, either by cutting away at the bottom of the MaxShot, or perhaps utilizing large-diameter PVC pipe to create a containment unit fastened in similar fashion to the bottom of the MaxShot? When I made my "Toothy" (Sawtooth/ SM1500/ SecretShot2 integration), I hacked and cut away much of the Sawtooth shell, gave up on the box magazine from the 'tooth (it couldn't stand a chance against a Longshot anyway), and used lots of hotglue/ epoxy to make it all come together.




I still used some duct tape and hot glue to attach the SS2 pump to the side, but most of the pieces are contained in the Sawtooth shell.

But heck, that's just me. I'm a picky son of a bitch. If it makes you happy, who cares if I'm distracted by all that greeeen glittery, booger-like hot glue. Git 'R done!

I'm so siggin' that.

Holy shit, that's reached Hawaii?

Why wouldn't it? It's just a short, catchy phrase that emboodies the blue-collar work ethic.
Piney, from what I know, obviously has a similar ethic. Look at all he does: (both here and in real life) it obvious that he knows how to, well, Git 'R done.



On topic, though, I don't agree with piney. I often duct tape whole guns together just for the hell of it. Call it the Po' man's integration. If it works, it works. I don't give a shit about how plastic, foam shooting children's toys look, as long as it is effective.

[OfAllTheNerf]

That's a pretty good first write-up.

But I do agree with Piney. I wouldn't call slapping some airpowered internals onto a gun and adding a keyring to be an integration, no offense. It doesn't take a whole lot of skill to do that. At least not as much as actually putting the innards inside the gun. I did that, basically, with my Nasa-3k, but now, to me, it's looks pretty ugly. Going to have to cover up all that... gross crap somehow.

That looked like a nice Paintjob ont he Maxshot, but with the glittery glue and the PVC all over the place the at2k doesn't really seem to fit. I would suggest that, next time, paint it after you have put other things on it, or paint it again. I don't paint, but since it looks like you can, I think it would make it look better.

[General Cole]

I think we need a new word, something like, attachment, because hotgluing to the side is not an integration.

[neomike88]

Heh, all the glittery stuff is interesting, maybe you should have just gone with the sliver by itself.

[Forsaken angel24]

I don't even know if I can add this to the directory as a write up. I mean nothing was really done to the Max shot itself. It is just the guts of an AT2K hot glued onto the side of a Max shot. I gotta say that green stuff looks horrible.

I agree with pineapple, it isn't really an integration, just an at2k glued to the bottom of a maxshot.


PS: I did something similar to my bbb

[chefdave]

ya I know, it's kinda sloppy, but I meant it to be like a prototype. If it works well in wars I will epoxy it.

note, I will try to add the write-up for modding the at2k and maxshot.
