Topics I've Started

The Thunder Clip

20 June 2007 - 08:15 PM

Well This started this afternoon when I decided I should make a clip. Pieces just fell together and I got it working in no time. Also this Is a brand new design. The name is from the roaring thunder while i was finishing it up.

You Need:
-1/2"repair sweat piping copper
-1/2"nut
-17/32 Brass
-piece I don not know(someone help me)
-1/2" cpvc coupler
-1/2" cpvc pipe
-glue

1. Take your copper pipe and attach the piece I am trying to find out. The pipe should me at least 4" long.

2. Mark the pipe for the dart entry to the breech. Refer to above picture.

3. Cut the hole in the copper, I used a mini roto zip.
Posted Image

4. Put the coupler on the end of the copper, it should be a good fit, glue in good.

5. Cut a 1" section of cpvc and hollow it out really good so it will fit over the brass, then cut it in half.
Posted Image

6. Place a length of brass that works good in the gun you want to use(it has to be 17/32 though) into the copper pipe.

7. Slide 1 of the cpvc pieces over the brass until the coupler keeps it in place nice and snug. Mark it and then pull it out and glue it in.

8. Hollow out the nut.

9. Slide over the cpvc and glue into the piece I do not know the name of.

10. Put on a clip system you like.

Your Done.


So when the dart enters you shut it(of coarse) the dart is pushed back but enter into the brass by the brass. There is a lip of the piece i dont know of the keeps it airtight. It is held in place by the cpvc coupler/cpvc.

Also the steps 8-9 can be bettered I am sure. Hope you like it! Completion time is easily less than 2 hours for sure. I hope to get a bbb or some other higher powered gun to try this on soon. Questions/comments?

This is a 2 part mod, First a double barrel to fit Gengar003's Clean Coupler Mod, and then a an extra mounted shot in the laser beam area.

For the Double barrel you will need:
Two 3" cpvc lengths 1/2" and one 3/4" section(approximate for both)
Two 1.5" lengths of 3/8" vinyl tubing
Electrical Tape
Glue

1. Cut both vinyl tubing like so, so the tubing will fit.

2. Fit both pieces into the 3/4" length of 1/2" cpvc and glue it down good.

3. Wrap E-tape around the the end of the vinyl tubing so it fits snugly.

4. Slip the 2 sections of cpvc over the vinyl tubing.

5. Glue it down good. Connect the 2 with glue also.

1. Cut a 1/2" hole in the shell just forward of the trigger.
Posted Image

First off I got this Idea from godzillasoaker65 and Frost Vectron.

All you need is:
A nail
A drill
And A cutting tool

1. Drill a hole that will fit your nail right in the middle of the 2 pieces that originally held the bar in place.
Posted Image
Posted Image
2. Cut the nail so there is ~1/4" of nail on either side of the cocking slide.
Posted Image
3. Re-wind the return spring around the nail.
Posted Image
4. Slap it all together and glue it in place. Sand the edges of the nail so you don't cut yourself or someone else.

And you're done! Congrats, your mav. works again.

I started this mod but then decided i should do a write up.

1. Open up gun(self explanatory)

2. Time to cut, Cut the middle part out, leave either side.

No need for this piece anymore

3. Glue a 5" piece of Cpvc onto the plunger, super glue with epoxy over it was best for me.

4. Dremel down this piece until the Cpvc fits

5. Here is the new plunger assembly:

6. Now put it back together, And you are done! Internals:

I painted it also, i still need to get the barrel but i like it so far,

Ranges: about 55' flat with taggers.

I realize some of the pics are big and some are small, this is my first experience with online photo posting, I will try to fix it, does anyone know why it wont let me resize some of the pics?
