While on the topic of the ballistics of nerf darts:

I for one have pushed a nerf dart past mach 1. The result is a shower of nerf dart confetti after about 10 feet.
This was accomplished by using a lighter than air gas, at around 2500 psi. The sound was insane.

It gun was simply a homemade QEV with 3/4'' porting, attached to a HPA tank, and a CPVC barrel.

I like how the copper PJ goes with the brass barrel.



Thank you.

I will see if shortening the barrel does me any good.... I'm guessing that it will....

Then i will do a few range tests... and let u guys know what i end up with. :alien:

Did you use epoxy putty where the ammo holders used to be?


Nope. No need. there is not a hole there.
Just just it flush with the plastic. worked nicely


the spring was from my parts bin, so its origin is unknown.

The barrel length was tested and optimized and i never really
measured it. just trial and error. :-)

Paint job was all done by hand,
Base coat: Kylon fusion flat black
Details, Testors hobby paints in various colors.

Thanks for the replys guys. Hope fully i can do some range tests soon.

If you got better ranges than a NF you must have a really powerful spring. Unless you didn't replace the spring on your NF.

And 11 inches? Doesn't that seem like a lot?


New spring..... and i did replace my NF spring. With a ace hardware #49

11 inches is probably an over estimation,. might be a bit more like 8
