Wow, I didn't think they would gather that much attention.Thanks for all the complements guys. My
Next project is a longshot done in a similar fashion. All of it is krylon camo 'cept for the silver model paint used for the worn look.
I discovered nerf again while watching the behind the scenes stuff on the robot chicken dvd's. So far I've done two mav's with the help from this site. The green one has the peg, AR removal and a stretched spring. For the desert tan, I removed the peg and drilled out the AR but left the black three prong and spring in the cylinders. Then I added the spring from the useless forward gun of the longshot. I stretched it and the stock mav spring. That along with the AR mod i estimate a gain of about 10 feet. Flight path is much flatter and the sting is exceptional.
Thanks to direct threat for the artistic inspiration!
