Big Salvo: One Tank Modification

28 September 2009 - 03:32 PM

During my go as a modder, I've always been one to milk the last drop out of everything. This mod uses the rest of a big salvo after 3 tanks are removed to make a marvelous salvo. It shoots like an plugged 2k in three pumps.

Apologies in advance: I only have finished pictures, and they were taken with a cell phone camera with bad photo quality.

Remove the tank/pump setup from the shell. Cut off the every tank but the top, first-firing one.

Posted Image
Pump those three tubing segments full of your glue(s) of choice.

______________________________________________________

And that's essentially it. Barrel the tank that's left however you want (May I recommend an RSCB?) and put it back into the shell. Here, you have a choice of where you want to put the tank. It's a preference call. I chose the top barrel.

Screw it together.

There you go. This thing works like a singled 2k, taking 3 pumps and shooting ~80 feet. This also frees up a TON of shell space for you to put stuff in.

Eliminator Disk Shot Integration

10 August 2009 - 07:48 PM

I don't feel like writing a whole boring intro for this, so here goes.


Note: This will not cover the modifications to the guns themselves, just the integration.


Materials:
N-strike eliminator
Disk shot pistol
Saw
Glue
Arizona iced tea
Pigs in a blanket

Cut your eliminator like so:

Cut your Disk shot like so:

Test the fit to make sure they will go together now, and make sure the primed eliminator will not interfere with your disk shot. You may need to cut down the disk shot trigger. I can't stress enough how important this is!

Now, we'll be gluing these together.
Start with hot glue to hold it while the other glues dry.

Schlop on some mighty/epoxy putty. If you use mighty putty, Billy Mays's ghost will make your gun shoot 10 feet further.

Toss a ton of very strong glue on it now. Use a ton of it. Like, go join the boy scouts, and get the goddamn merit badge for it.

Posted Image

Actually, I forgot to take a pic of the gooping.


Let it dry. To increase stability while it's drying, Follow This mod's guidelines and enjoy some pigs in a blanket with some nice iced tea. After much testing, I find it increases the stability of the glue by up to 35%.

Yeah, I don't have disk shot internals yet.

Expect a PJ soon.

Dart Tag Blaster Modification

06 June 2009 - 02:17 PM

Well, this mod is going to be on how to replace the barrels of your dart tag blaster with PETG. It's a very simple modification.

Stuff needed: 30 inches of PETG

10 inches of 17/32 brass

Buzz bee missile



Tools: Goop or glue of choice

Pipe cutters

Screwdrivers


Step one: Unscrew your gun.

Posted Image



Remove the turret, and unscrew the screws in the turret to remove the orange part. You won't need the orange portion.



Put 10 one inch stubs of 17/32 brass into the slots of the turret.

(This picture was taken on a camera I do not currently have access to and will be put up on Sunday night.)



Slide 3" segments of PETG on the 17/32nds brass, and glue them to ensure they will not move or fall out, and to make sure they are 100% airtight. I used a combo of epoxy putty and plumber's goop, but I highly recommend goop or epoxy. Hell, even hot glue would do the job. Edit: The chopped 4B missile is a barrel spacer.

Posted Image



So Now, we're mostly done. Put the turret back into the shell.

Posted Image

Completely optional: I added a crossfire spring because my local ace does not sell #49's.



Completely optional: I gooped the gray part that fills the hole in the back of the shell to one side of the shell because it was causing problems.



Completely optional: I cut the front handle off because it does nothing more than get in the way.

Close the gun up.

Posted Image

And now you're done. Mine is hitting 55 feet flat.

This mod is great for people who want to mod their DTB but have bigger darts.
I'll be testing this puppy tomorrow at a local war. I suspect with a seal improval and a plunger draw extension mod this could hit 75 feet.




This computer is funky, and I typed this in microsoft word. I'll try to fix any write-up technical problems I see.
Edit: fixed font issue.
