In Topic: A Couple Maverick Mods

This is pretty cool! I especially like the second one. If performed by itself, would you say that each mod would have a significant effect on the ranges of the blaster (given it was modded from stock)? I'll have to try this next time after I visit Target. :D

If you want a airtight seal use Plumbers Goop ($4 purple tube also at walmart) Takes 24-72 hours to dry but is usually a excellent sealant.


Gotcha. Thanks again! I'll be sure to get quite a bit for my upcoming projects.

Loctite all purpose Putty, Available at Walmart for $4 a tube. The only stuff I will ever use. Sticks good, is strong, and I think one of the best around. As always make sure you sand your glue joints for strength before applying adhesives.


Thanks for the suggestion! This will create an airtight seal, won't it? I need to keep that tube connection functional.

Good job! So correct me if I'm wrong, but other than the tubeing the pump is not connected to the gun? Can it can still use N-strike clips? Also, I would recommend using epoxy putty instead of hot-glue, you can find it at Lowes or Home Depot in the plumbing section. Overall a very nice gun/write-up.


Thanks! Well, not yet, but I am going to fix it to the part where a foregrip would go. Unfortunately, it does NOT accept clips... though you could probably replace the tee with a wye and put a clip there. That would eliminate the need for opening the breech each time and reloading it. I'll look into that. The last time I used epoxy putty didn't turn out so well.. it was hard to mix together and it didn't adhere to anything. Also, it kept crumbling.... the packaging said 2 minute work time, and it started crumbling a few seconds after I opened it. Do you have a particular brand that you use?

Nice, I did this to my Longstrike when I saw the "snowwhite" in a video on youtube. Nice way using the metal L bracket.


That's great! Thank you. At first, I attempted to use wire in a pulley system, but realized that it caused too much stress on the shell, so I dropped that idea for a bracket design. :D
