Nerf longshot .50 cal

this is my longshot. it took me about 2 days to modify and paint it. the mods i did were doubling up the spring with a recon spring, removed both Ar's, and i took out all the safteys. oh and it is about 4 feet long with the extended barrel.

it doesn't really look to much like Barret .50. you could make a muzzle brake. But that might be a little hard. GOOD JOB OVER ALL

well my friend, "Barret .50." that's vague isn't it?
because Barret makes lots of different firearms, you might be thinking of the M107 or m82A3

yes very true indeed..but this m82 has no muzzle brake soo this is more of the m82a1 ;)

When you say "Flash muzzel thingy", do you mean the muzzle brake?

Apr 17, 2012. 9:37 AMMSgt_JGC says:

It looks like a flash suppressor.

How did you take the clips apart to paint them? I tryed but the tops are glued shut.

Wait... Your supposed to take the clips apart befor you paint them? :)
I just hung them from the ceiling with wire and spray painted them

Okay... I was getting worryed there. Check out my recon m16/m4 cosmetic mod. d:)

ur supposed to take the apart, take out the 2 screws, and take one of those little tabs that are holding it together and just kind of pry it up, but make sure it doesnt break

Mar 5, 2011. 4:21 PMHitman227 says:

Already done.

Mar 2, 2011. 6:27 AMeman414 (author) says:

Yea I tried to take apart the clips but they wouldent come apart so I just painted them put together .

Feb 23, 2011. 5:58 AMkve23 says:

what size pipe did you use?

Mar 2, 2011. 6:38 AMeman414 (author) says:

I used 1/2 inch PVC but that long barrel is pretty much just for show because the dart doesn't even come out the barrel if you don't have it perfectly parallel to the ground.

Aug 31, 2010. 9:52 PMlazyboy13 says:

it doesnt really look like a 50 caliber rifle. try using a copper pipe instead of pvc cause the dart goes out faster cause it doesnt rub against the barrel. i tried it and it works great! good attempt tho. :):):):)

Nov 23, 2010. 4:37 AMHitman227 says:

You should use 3/4" unless your rifle is very powerful

thanks

I've been moding nerf guns for a lil bit now and I've learnd a few things and first don't use copper for your barrel it would cost so so much for a lil bit and second you should use PETG you can't buy it at hardware stores but go to nerfhaven and there should be sellers there and then ou nest in your PVC an the second thing is just using Cpvc (you can find that at almost any hardwhere store) it's bout as cheap as PVC

Nov 23, 2010. 4:36 AMHitman227 says:

I use copper. For me I only need 2' so it costs me like 3$.

Nov 14, 2010. 10:48 AMeman414 (author) says:

Yes I know all that check out my other slide show for my other guns it needs to be updated but there cool

Sep 28, 2010. 4:16 PMeman414 (author) says:

the front barrel doesnt work any more:(

Aug 31, 2010. 6:08 AMeman414 (author) says:

Im having a problem with the barrel where the dart barly falls out of the barrel if it doesen't get stuck in the barrel and as for range I shot it a few times without the barrel and one dart hit around 80 feet.
