Maverick Speedloader Mod
09 April 2008 - 10:39 AM
It's me again, but this time I got a real mod, not paintjob thread to jam the board. Well at least it's the draft of a mod that I might actually do, oh well, read on.
I've been thinking about fast reload for the Maverick, I do know there is a clip mod which you can change the entire clip barrel, but you'll have to kill many Mavericks for it.
And I thought about the revolver speedloader device, which look like this.
It took me about 5 minutes to draw up something on the paper, then an hour to create a 3d model. It should be pretty easy to understand. Composed of PVC and spring and a lot of cuttings.
If you still don't know how it works, check out this video. Even if you understood you should still watch it, since I already made it.
Demo video on youtube
I designed it to only hold 5 darts, because even after I do the Russian Roulette Mod, the center still obstruct one hole. But you can make a 6 darts holder if you did the clip barrel mod. You don't need to sacrifice other Mavericks just so you can reload faster.
Easier said than done, I don't think making this speedloader will be an easy task, but if I have too much time I will attempt it.
Tell me what you think. I could use some tips before I commit more time and energy into this. (or if this has already been attempted, please let me know.)

Scout Paintjob
07 April 2008 - 10:44 AM
Last weekend I painted my Scout. Since it's the best "millitary-look" pistol it'll be the perfect sidearm to go with my starfleet-theme Longshot.
I drilled out the venting holes on the slide. Then I added a iron weight in the handle to make it a bit more hefty, maybe more "real".
Since I'm opening it up for painting, I took out the AR so it get another 5' with stock dart.
A little black stain near the muzzle, I hope it'll show through the venting holes.
Now I can get in my full tactical gears with them. Or I'll be the Starfleet special ops with weapons designed for harsh environment (where you can't use phasers).
