Steampunk Maverick (Nerf) Blunderbuss

I have been looking for a Steampunk Blunderbuss for a while and could not afford some of the wonderful creations I had seen so armed with an old clock, a nerf maverick rev 6, a funnel, a glue gun, and some Warhammer paint I decided to resolve my armoury issue. This is my first attempt at doing a Mod - Hope you like it

Step 1 Buy yourself a Nerf Maverick!

Get yourself a Nerf Gun, I chose a Maverick for its size, and duelling capabilities when taking over other peoples airships.

Search out an old clock in a thrift store and dismantle - watch out for flying springs

Buy a funnel or steal one from the kitchen, I'm probably in trouble next time my wife looks for hers!

[Attmos]

[ZachFejes]

This looks great!

[willdeh2]

I really appreciate your Rolling Stones reference.

[moocowdog]

you could also use spray paint

[sonofstone]

i agree, spray paint looks way better, 'cause you dont have al the marks the brushes leave behind

[sithlil]

does it shoot further?

[lil larry]

It looks like some kind of alien gun dude

[Fractal Art]

This one actually looks almost exactly like the Switch Shot EX-3. Are you sure it's not an actual Nerf gun?

[daftmorgan]

Planning on painting the decals and marks back in they look like a coat of arms 8)

[MrSalvador]

Yuo should try some things like taking apart the gun and filing away company marks and decals. Here's mine

Looked at the Longshot and Recon - I think the Recon looks more suitable for steampunking!

I have always loved Flintlocks and Blunderbusses. Steampunk is meant to be Victorian, and Blunderbusses are 17th Century and Victorian era was 19th Century. Steampunk takes existing things and imagines them in a more Victorian style and powered by steam or clockwork so that was the inspiration - I saw my funnel and my maverick and bomb the Steampunk Maverick Blunderbuss was born. I forgot to post picture without the Blunderbuss end because it has two very different looks!

I do like the idea of Modding and also have a Steampunk Whisky Powered Grappling Hook Crossbow as a Work in Progress - Too far in Progress to do a Step by Step though.

I posted a pic as an extra step to the blunderbuss of a mini nerf style mod I have made - Thanks for the comments - nice to see some positive comments for my first Instructable.

If I manage to snag a Recon or Vulcan I will post that up too!
