Re: The Gun Thread

Ok it's Friday, so I'm gonna lay some heavy shit on you. Scheides household has a new armament guarding it. Be wary all unauthorized intruders, lest ye be rained down fire from this new weapon of destruction!



That's right! Nerf CS-18 Alpha Trooper. Anna let me go to Target alone the other day and was making the list of things to get on my phone while we were in the car.

"hrm....what else do we need?" She asked...
my response, "windshield washer fluid, a nerf gun, and oh! Liquid Plumber! I used the last of it last weekend."

To my surprise, when I was looking through the list at the list at the store, there it was. Nerf gun. Right above milk and right below windshield fluid. I bought 3 extra 18-packs of darts so I could empty 4 full clips before having to go pick them all up



After a few days of playing with it I thought to myself....there had to be a way to make this thing more powerful! So off to the internet I went, and let me tell you there are some serious nerf dorks out there. The youtube videos are LOLerskates, but a few show you how to remove some of the safety locks and increase the range/velocity of these things.

So, I disassembled:



CS-18 Mod list:
-Removed 'safety' locks
-sealed bore breach hole
-increased air seal tension w/ teflon tape
-shimmed main spring about 1/3-1/2"



This thing is awesome now! Darts used to fly across my living room with a nice gentile arc...now they freaking rip across with a that nervous "I'm going toooo fasst!" twitch/jitter....it's awesome! Using 'slam fire' mode or whatever it's called, you can empty the 18-dart clip in about 12 seconds. The dogs still don't understand wtf is happening--I'm def putting this thing under my pillow for late-night robberies and in my bag on the cruise for late-night shenanigans.
