First off, let me start by saying I did not come up with either of these mods, I merely adapted them using the materials I had access to. First, for the powerstock, I used a 3/4" conduit coupler, a 3/4" conduit slip endcap, and about 4 inches of 3/4" conduit. Also, I used 2 springs out of the front suspension of a RC Harley Davidson.

First, take the coupler and sand down the insides by about 1/2 a millimeter all around. Then, take the black thingie on the end of your Recon off, and cut out the end, and lightly sand down the outside.


Take the sanded end or your coupler, and push it as hard as you can on your black thingie.

Take the conduit, and stick it in the coupler.

Put your endcap on the conduit.

Put your spring/springs into your conduit through the end of the black thingie.

Put the black thingie back on your Recon, and it will now (most likely) shoot further than before.

Secondly, I have just finished my Recon's new paintjob. I painted it in what I felt best suited the Recon's reason for being, as a gun for Recon missions.

The orange on the handle is duct tape.
The way I made it this way was first, I sanded down my Recon, and applied a base coat of black paint. When that had dried, I took strips of Frog tape, and laid them over it. I then put down a few coats of tan-ish paint, waited for it to dry, and laid more Frog tape over it. I then finished with several coats white paint. I waited for it to dry, and then pulled off all of the Frog tape, and ta-dah!



Before anyone asks, I do not have ranges for the powerstock since my gun is still in several pieces due to painting. Yes, the powerstock can be used on a Raider. Any questions? Comments? Insults?

Edit: Picture of it in one piece!


Edit: Ranges: PTG-around 54', ATG-around 108'

Might as well post here too. First, my Mega SNAP

Has a 2" plungertube, PVC ring catch, and one big ass spring.
My Cannon

Yes, that's a standing bike pump. Uses a 5' CPVC barrel. Shoots 200' at 40 psi. Shoots 500' easy at 100psi. Used mainly for scaring people, hunting small to medium sized animals, home defense.

I am currently working on a nerf "masterkey". Don't laugh. It's going to be made using a Ultimate Missile Blast tank. The tank will have an absolver attachment glued on the front, a fill tube glued in the back, and a keyring trigger. The whole thing is going to snap into a PVC holder that's attached to the blaster of choice. As soon as I make a working one, I will post pics and videos for everyone to see. I am planning on selling these, so let me know if you would be interested.

Yeah, no problem, I got plenty more to post.

As far as insane ranges, I will be adding a Titan pump to it, but I will also be absolving it, so it'll probably get around 70' with about 8-9' spread. A real room-clearer.

I like the idea because it then adds new levels of fun and difficulty to nerf games. As far as homemade or store bought? I think homemade is better. First, it's cheaper, no explanation needed. Secondly, you can be creative with your homemade stuff. I'm actually working on making a foam scythe, just for the lulz.
Oh, and the word you want is "repeatedly" not "repeatably", just letting you know.

3x Nitefinder
2x Furyfire
1x Doubleshot
1x Ultimate Berserker
1x Ultimate Missile Blast
1x Vulcan
1x Recon
1x Firefly
1x Stampede
1x Raider
1x Longstrike
1x Longshot
1x Barricade
3x Buzzsaw
1x Maverick

For my second post, I thought I'd go ahead with my Hydro Cannon writeup. Here's what I started with:

First pic after I got it out of the box.
First, find a cutting device of choice:

Next, take care of that annoying mesh in the nozzle:

Finally, shove some CPVC into the nozzle:

You now have a water gun that can shoot around 60' flat with 10 pumps. I did test this with Lanard suction darts(all I had).

Eventually, I will coupler this, make a pump replacement, and probably shotgun it with one of these. This was all that I did because I don't have access to any of my tools or supplies, seeing as I'm at my uncle's.

IMPORTANT: For anyone that is going to be keeping the stock pump, do NOT block the hose going to the water tank. The pump works by pulling water out of the tank on the forward stroke, and pushing into the bladder on the back stroke. If anything, simply pull that hose off of the pump.

Figured that for my first post here, I'd go ahead and show all my blasters I currently have.
