Wii Zapper DIY Airsoft Mod

I wanted as close to a real pistol as possible with the wii zapper. The Nintendo one just doesn't cut it. I made this in one hour from a cheap airsoft gun i had laying around. The grip safety works and the trigger pushes the wiimotes trigger (b button).
I skinned Chung Dha's paper wii gun template (chungdha.blogspot.com) with a glock skin making this the first ever barettaglockenspieler.

Step 1: Take apart airsoft gun

A lot of airsoft guns can be taken apart. This one was easily broken down. I can put it back together if I really want to later too!

I wouldn't mod an airsoft gun for a wii shooter. You'd be better of buying a gun from Target and they even have them at Dollar Trees or 99 cent stores.

It's good, but I think I would rather with the airsoft handgun. But It's a smart way to make a Wii Zaper.

way to waste a wii mote...unless it can be removed...if it can then AWESOME

[miols]

FAIL

Be nice now, its a cool idea to do with broken airsoft guns.

[steamruler]

If you want, you can open the controller and integrate it...

 KINDa suxs. like i get that ur not good at electronics or whatever reason u used a "extended trigger pulling mechanism" but i could get that at radioshack

no hate here, jjust sayin if ur gonna make stuff like this, go out and make it rigth

[meddler]

If you're going to rip someone about doing things right. Then use grammar correctly. Just sayin, no hate here

[Riann13]

too bad the wiimote doesn't have a "black" color option...

[drc2311]

Black remotes are being sold now at local game shops and also on ebay.  They work fine for this mod.

[J Man!!!]

 This is cool

[DeathToSquishy]

Dude! That's awesome, though the print-out box is a little strange. You should post it on WiiArmory.

dude

You really should have taken the wii remote apart completely and worked with that :P

[crankola]

I agree with 5hrp13, chloride and others - the next version should pack all the Wii-mote guts into the colt body - which will take some work, but it would be so sweet to have a Colt 1911 Wii shooter! Heck, you could sell those, or at least I would buy one! Not really, cuz im going to make one now, even though I dont own a Wii! I use a Wii-mote with my Apple laptop, and some days I feel like shooting it! I always thought the 1911 is one of the coolest semi auto pistols ever made! I also agree with poultryduck that the 'Glock' slide doesnt look so great as the graphic - so what about scanning the airsoft slide and making your own? Or use one of these imagesthese images, use the other graphic as a template for folding and cutting (and maybe scaling) and whammo! But overall, great idea, with pretty good execution!

[chloride]

Yeah that would have been better.

[Karv]

Jesus, there is no airsoft or other type of pellet/ball gun whose barrel is the width of a wiimote. If there is, it's a damn bazooka. this is as realistic as the zapper will get!

[chloride]

Actually you could have just rewired the remote into the gun, you would have to de-solder most of the stuff though since the gun would be too small to fit the circuit board.

[Colonel88]

true...

[zmandudesk8]

cool, but would be better with plastic as a holder. very awesome though :]

[nightcreep20]

Im just telling you but that doesn't look anything like real>

[starbucks starwars and lotrs oh my]

very nice looking

[poultryduk]

Just for future reference, that's not a Beretta; that's a Colt 1911. And, no offense, but Colts and Glocks don't look all that great when parts are interchanged.

[ultimachris]

hey, if you look really closely you can actually see something that looks nothing like a gun!

[EnigmaMax]

hey, nice idea! you should add some LEDs on the tip so it blinks every time you fire
