Well, after seeing a Nerf Maverick in Fred Meyer for only $8 ( ), I decided to pick one up with about 10 extra sonic darts. I bring it home, and get right to work, removing the restraints on the barrel of the Maverick. My final product: Now, my next step is to increase the strength of the spring, but I don't know what spring to get. Any recommendations? Also, show off your mods/guns as well for bonus points.

oh god, those would have been great for the tell me a story photoshop thread. dammit i loved nerf, just so much fun when you had enough of it.

Last month's nerf longshot thread has some good info.

Also, I removed the limiters in the chambers, so that the shots should be more consistent now. The limiters are those three-pronged things with springs behind them.

I had frame one of that comic happen to me just a few days ago. I was at a party and somebody says "Hey Alfonso." I look up just in time to stare down the barrel of that exact nerf gun and catch a dart straight in the eye. Oh man are drunk people fun.. and by fun I mean assholes.

Spraypaint that shit black. You might be shot by a police officer but damn will it look good.

That longshot is so fucking awesome

I really want to mod my longshot, but I'm too lazy. That thing has serious fucking potential what with it having an awesome rate of fire in addition to being spring powered. Not to mention cocking it just feels bad ass.

This internet fad is starting to show its age... How about we mix things up with that whole Aereo Ace fad? But don't go shooting the plane, it moves too fast. Try to shoot a Picco-Z RC helicopter! ~$30, and made by the same firm, even though it's sold under a different brand. Looks cool enough.

I just got finished reading the Longshot thread. Someone there mentioned that they've been looking for replacement darts. You can get packs of tag darts and glow-in-the-dark darts at retail stores, but you can actually order large packs of ammo from Hasbro directly. Nerf Order Form You can get small darts, Nerf balls, large arrows, even replacement missles for the big Titan 3-in-1 monstrosity.

I have the longshot, and I want to work on modding it to shoot over 100 Feet.

GSM, Man, that heli-cop-tor looks badass. How high can you fly those things? I would like to put a little camera on it and fly it though traffic.

Not to mention cocking it just feels bad ass. Assembling it, cocking it...Nerf has somehow managed to make a plastic gun that shoots foam darts badass in every way. I do not know how this was accomplished. I theorize it involved elven magic.

Too much down-time to pump them.

Maverick Edit: Actually, the Maverick is semi-auto, I think (though I'm not sure). It's also only a six-dart clip. However, the Maverick is only $8 each, which means you can dual wield for less than the price of the Magstrike.

Heh. cock.

Spraypaint that shit black. You might be shot by a police officer but damn will it look good. Oh...like this?

Spraypaint that shit black. You might be shot by a police officer but damn will it look good. Oh...like this? You just sold a nerf gun...and some spray paint. Seriously though what kind of paint did you use and did you coat it with anything so as to not be that kind of awkward somewhat sticky texture that paint can be at times? Or maybe I just put too much paint on stuff... And did you take it apart to paint it piece by piece?

I want to paint my Longshot black. That'd be fucking badass.
