This is the breech open:

I used the original piece that kept the gun from working unless there was an arrow on it to push the darts into the barrel. You can barely see it in the picture. I was wondering if anybody had any tips on increasing the range. I would prefer not to have to open the trigger section of the gun.
Also, has anyone else noticed that a 1/2 inch piece of cpvc fits perfectly inside a longshot clip? I am working on a stefan longshot clip that will go over the breech currently (I may have questions about it in the future; be ready).
Thanks in advance!
Note: Because I said thanks already, you have to give me some helpful info. It's like paying in advance.
