I just got a tech target, and its pretty cool. I dont have brass, so I decided to cpvc it. Before I modded it My bro Crankymonky just stuck a 4.5 inch peice of 1/2 inch cpvc with the air restrictor in no mods...It shot ok, high velocity, not too far only like 30 feet...Wanted to see how it did.

I then modded it.
What i did was sawed off the back part of the barrel, a few centimeters after the back ridge, sanded the back of the barrel down, sawed a 4.5 inch peice of cpvc and sanded it straight so it would glue well to the plunger opening. I then stuck the cpvc in the barrel and pushed it in. I then epoxied the cpvc to the small opening in the plunger tube. It's drying right now and I will post ranges tomorrow when its finished, but just sticking a peice of cpvc in the barrel and firing we got 30 feet at a great velocity...Cant wait to see it modded. Im expecting it to shoot maybe as far as brass mods, just like my other guns, looks promising. But you can always do Ragornocks and Mr. Grinch's brass mods, both nice, I just prefer cpvc because it is cheaper, more accessible, I have it on me, and cpvc(a type of palstic) bonds better to plastic...

The thing about brass is that you can telescope it, which most people prefer for a spring gun. Does cpvc form a good seal on your darts? I wanna hear those ranges, I'm still deciding whether or not to buy one.

Xedice: Ill get ranges in bout 2 hours because I want a full 24 hours just in case...Whether or not you have brass or cpvc, its worth getting one, Just looking at the insides I had about 5 ideas on how to mod it. The seal is VERY tight, a little too much than prefered, but it still works well.

Steven: Maybe, Im broke my mom might give me 5 bucks...How much will you give me for that?

EDIT: Ok it got ranges of 50-55 feet flat. I drilled out some of the barrel with a 1/2 inch drill bit so the darts would go in more easily. Its range may not be all that great, but its very nice velocity and rof make up for that.
