Here goes my first write up, ok so I went over my friends house to help him put together a lofted bed. After we had finished putting together the beast(it took awhile) I was looking through his closet because he had a vulcan and I wanted to shoot it(because i hadn't used one since i burnt through 2). that is when i found this:
side standing view.
side flat view.
front view
Now as soon as I got home i thought, "What can I do to make this better?". So I searched around the haven and found no one had done a clip mod like the maverick and other blasters like it had. So I took the challenge and ended up with a very simple easy to do mod. First take a look at the front of the gun, notice the big ring around the rotating barrel? Here is the front view picture with part of the ring i am talking about highlighted.
That is what keeps the rotating barrel on for the most part. So open the gun and cut a section of the ring out with your tool of choice. Put the gun back together with everything in it and take a small flat head screwdriver and start prying out pieces. Once you get enough out so you can take the rotating barrel out the mod is done. Here are some pictures of the finished product.

The "clip" detatched from the gun.
I will most likley post a follow up on this showing how my blaster held up after the rods that hold the darts are taken out and a video with a quick demonstration on how the "clip" goes in and out of the gun and how it can still shoot.
