Hey NerfHaven! So when I was drilling out my rampage's air restrictor I accidently damaged a bit of the breech. Though it actually didn't affect performance at all, this got me thinking about making a new breech for it. I want it to still be mag fed and shoot elites. Has anyone tried making a new breech for a rampage? If so, can you give me any suggestions or tips?

Thanks,

If you want to replace it fully then cut some cpvc or petg to do that. But and quick fix would be aluminum or brass. I made a cpvc one time and was amazing the darts would go 100ft+ with an omw 5kg spring. That is my advice.

I've seen a few mods in which the plunger tube is replaced with something either beefier or straight up homemade. I’ve made a few homemades myself but haven’t gone into the super deep end of modding outside of some simple AR removals.



Are there any “gotchas” that I need to consider? My plan is to keep the stock breech and mag system on a blaster (haven’t decided which one, maybe a Longstrike) but replace the entire plunger tube and rod with something homemade. There are some considerations for opening the breech but that doesn't look terribly hard to come up with something either.

Am I missing something? So long as I seal the plunger tube end to the breech and can manually open the breech to reload while compressing the spring, I should be good right?

I haven't tried something like that either but I'm thinking of making a custom plunger tube and rod. However, if you want the basis watch this video (https://m.youtube.co...h?v=d-o7iJ9ThXk). It is psyk's modified retaliator plunger tube. That should help you, but to my extent I would use pvc that is clear or polycarbonate tubing and then shrink the connection with other pieces of pvc to fit the breech. Hope this helps.

I actually use some E-Tape on the bolt sled of my Retaliator and rampage to prevent any air from escaping the plunger assembly. This is a cool alternative, and I will definitely try it out!

Well when I tried to use e-tape my breech would get jammed even with only one layer. That is why I came up with this method.
