I’ve removed the pressure regulators, modified the chamber to swing all the way out, custom built a laser from a keychain laser and an aluminum box i found, rewired it so that the switch you see by the trigger turns it on, I switched out the bearing in the front from plastic to a brass fitting, added another spring on the trigger to give it better action, solidified the clutch for the trigger and the chamber revolver to be one piece, and of course lots of wiring and batteries and such, oh and the bottom light you see you can buy as an accessory except it mounts on the top where you see the little orange square I wasn’t into that so i modded it so I could have it on the bottom. I have a few other things to do and of course I’m gonna paint it.

Dude, you seriously need to get in ARs if you like tinkering with damn near everything on a gun and nerf doesnt provide a product with the range your looking for.
Oh, and that hot piece of modded plastic sexiness needs a replay button.

That’s pretty hot, any special ammo or stuff?

Soooo Geeky, but I can’t criticize anyone who would put so much effort and affection into something so fun and silly.

I played HvZ (humans vs Zombies) at Penn State last semester and gonna do it again this fall. I have one of these too. I’ve modded it (it kinda sucks stock), AR removal, chamber swing, trigger fix, put 3 pennies behind the main spring, put an air restrictor spring in from of the chamber to push it back for a slightly better seal. The laser with the nice integrated switch is awesome, I’d do it but then the gun wouldn’t be approved for HvZ use cause of Penn State’s stupid policy against laser pointers.

Yeah right on, heres a video of the gun now that I’ve added a few more things, kind of crazy, but it’s just so moddable. Heres the list right now of what I have done:
1. removed the air suppressors
2. modded it so the chamber swings all the way out
3. added a spring to the front of the chamber
3. glued the clutch for the rotation mechanism to the gear so it spins better
4. added a spring to the trigger to give it better action
5. done the penny add for the main spring
6. custom built a laser sight from a pen laser, a electrical project box I found and a switch (that’s the switch by the trigger)
7. mounted the night light to the bottom instead of the top where it goes
8. added a light, a microswitch and all the necessary wiring and chamber redesign so that each dart will activate a light
9. replaced the front chamber bearing with a brass bearing
10. installed a switch on the side of the bottom light for the chamber leds
11. and most difficult modified the chamber and gun in such a way as to power the spinning chamber while its moving
The gun weighs about twice the normal weight, it contains 2 AA batteries, 2 AAA batteries and 2 smaller laser pin size batteries along with all the wiring necessary. Pretty much all I have to do left is paint it.

Natedog, you stole my line.

Oh and no special ammo, it will fire both the original nerf darts and the better smaller micro darts, though with all the camber modifications that I’ve done I’m only slightly better then stock now instead of extremely better as far as distance goes, but all the weight seems to help with accuracy, less recoil if you would believe it.
