In Topic: N-strike Barrel Break Ix-2

It looks like it has some sort of clips on the black piece on the side of the blaster, what do people think those could be for? In my opinion they look slightly too functional to be just for aesthetic purposes.

Also, that "Tactical Ammo Storage accessory" looks like it might be great for NiteFinder rifles.

No one has mentioned that.. nowhere on the box does it say that each barrel can fire independently. Only being able to fire both barrels simultaneously would make the blaster rather crap in my opinion.

Did you get those from here?

If you did, how did you manage to navigate your way through the website and pay for them? I'd love to get some RF-20s from there...

Is the Deploy uncomfortable to hold with both your R.I.P system, and a drum-mag? I'm considering on doing something similar, but not so removable and with a Big Salvo tank.. and it would suck if I couldn't use my 2 drum-mags with it.

Also a slightly off topic question: how much range do you think your brass breech added to your blaster?

Oh and I've forgotten to congratulate you on being pretty much the only person to be doing very awesome Deploy mods (and having good write-ups), well done.

In Topic: Slightly Improving The Stock Nitefinder "targeter"

If you want to seriously improve it wire up a couple more LEDs in parallel with the main one. Also insulated wire is usually a better thing to dirrect current with, rather than tin foil.


Extra LEDs wouldn't fit in the black tube leading to the lens piece at the front of the gun. Replacing the LED with a higher quality one might help though. And you are right, insulated wire is much better, but it is slightly trickier and takes longer (wires need stripping etc.) to get into the right place.

Could you remove the resistor altogether and replace it with wire to achieve the same effect?


Yes you could, but that would require soldering which most (I'm assuming most) people who nerf wouldn't have the tools and/or patience to do

If you're going to make engineering changes, you should probably do engineering testing.

Put in new batteries, and put a rubber band around the trigger tight enough to engage the switch.

My bet is that something melts, burns out, or possibly even CATCHES FIRE within maybe half an hour.


Very true, I should.

*10 minutes later*

Nothing broke after over five minutes of it staying on with new batteries. I doubt anyone will keep that thing on continuously for more than five minutes, so I thought it was pointless to waste my batteries and test it for longer.

Also an LED of this size/performance with such little power going through it is unlikely to melt badly, and certainly not going to catch fire. At worst it will warm up the plastic then pop and stop working.
