Failed Mods
They don't always turn out good. Here are a few of my Epic Fails.
Singled Maverick, it shot further than stock but not as far as a NF.

Blast Bazooka sniper gun, front handle and barrel are cpvc. Barrel was too tight for darts. It was difficult to ram darts all the way in

Dual rscb, it worked if both darts loaded correctly. Usually only one dart would fire and the other would stop halfway in the barrel.
Super Dart Tag blaster. For some reason the barres would not rotate and I could not get the trigger to release the catch.
The NF with Maverick barrel, nobody seemed to like this one. The barrels were too short and the turret seal was not perfect so some darts would only go a few feet.
I tried to put a trigger from a 2k on this Super Soaker but it never worked out. I ended up putting the internals in a 2k shell.
Nerf Hornet tanks on a Spider Man Dart Tag gun. After pumping only one tank would fire, could never get the others to fire so I put it back to stock.

I expanded the tank on this Sonic bazooka using some pvc pipe. I dont have a pic of the tank in place but it didn't work, the 1/2 inch cpvc held the air plug in place. Since it uses back pressure, when the trigger valve oppened all the air would release out that oppening instead of going out the barrel.
AT2k BBB. I did get this gun to work but it was a waste of two perfectly good guns. Plus it was weird having the trigger in the front handle.
The Pop Shot Dart Tag gun, this didn't work because of the back pressure air tank. I could not figure out a way to make a trigger work. That was my only hangup.
Marker barrel Recon. This mod actually made the Recon shoot a lot further but after about 30 shots the marker came loose. The Recon was scraped when a friend tried to remove the restrictor and melted the stock barrel. The marker was my way of fixing it. If I would have used something stronger then hot glue it would have worked.(I may recreate and do a write up on this mod since people are interested)
This blaster also worked as long as you didn't pump it up all the way. About 4 pumps is the max, any more and the hanger attached to the trigger and pull pin would just bend and not pull the pin. I didn't have anything stronger I could run through the gun.
Marker barreled shotgun, the markers are way too short for this much power.

I think the best barrel material is brass but I have yet to find a place locally that sell it. Brass can be ordered in any size you need, check this chart for reference.Here is a good thread on NerfHaven about barrel materials and sizes.

I coupler all my guns so I can use different attachments.
