Hi,

Thanks for writing this up. My boys and I are modifying some nerf guns and we are using this guide to mod two Longshots.

Question:

What size tube are people using for the barrel with this mod?  I thought that we were supposed to use 17/32" tube, however, the Elite Darts barely fit inside a 17/32" tube. The fit is so tight that I can't blow the dart through the tube with a strong puff from my mouth. Is this right?

Is this normal?  When I put this gun together will the spring build up enough pressure to blow the dart down the full length of the barrel.

To remedy this I was thinking of using 9/16" for the barrel and using a short section of 17/32" at the rear of the barrel to receive the dart, but I haven't seen a guide that does that so I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong.
