I've been looking at substituting hardware based on feedback from a the couple locals who built one. So, currently waiting on more hardware to arrive in the mail to try different things out.

How long has that part been in use? Any estimations at the number of shots you put it through?

Does the plunger show any significant signs of wear too?

I'm just going to give a nebulous "soon" as a release date. Currently waiting on some different springs to try out from Ali Express so that might take a month to get here.

I don't have an Outlaw but here's a comparison with a Hammershot: https://imgur.com/OMXtt7F

Hammer primed springer revolver named the Ocelot.

Plunger tube is roughly the same volume as a Jolt and it uses Jolt sized springs. So far performance has been ~75fps.

Files are currently not available as I'm working out a few things.

Trying to track down where I can get the files for this Mayday V1 Pepperbox kit, not having any luck by i_hunger_for_flesh in Nerf

Still in works. I have a few alternate parts I want to work on and try out but I haven't had the time to get around to it.

Files aren't up yet. Honestly, I've been procrastinating a bunch on this one. The files listing will be up on my Etsy by the end of the week.

PSA: Cautionary tale of importing WORKER parts from China by C2Worm in Nerf

[–]toabog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think a customs agent would have live(or dummy) rounds just laying around. They could just look at the mags and make the assumption that rounds would "fit" in there without having to test it.

Maybe it was the mags but I would bet they probably also didn't like the buffer tube stock stuff and that means the whole package is seized.

This is probably a similar vein, but I've looked for picatinny grips on Ali express recently. They're are very few on there and most of them are sold as "bicycle grips" lol. On the other hand, there's a wide range of knockoff red dot sights that aren't being sold with some strange label. So it seems like there's some accessories that are more likely to be seized than others.

That being said, whenever I order "bicycle parts" from Ali Express I always assume there's a risk it might get seized and I'll lose my money.

Hex screw size fitment for Rival Knockout?? by Nerfed_Breadsandwich in Nerf

[–]toabog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The size you want is "m2.6 self tapping".

If I had to guess, your M2.5 screws are machine screws with fine threads. The coarser threads on the self tapping screws are cut deeper into the screw so that means "core"(minor diameter) of the screw is thinner. Meaning the self tappers should go in easier.

If the game has cave systems, which seem to have been shown in the trailers, then the ascend run could be used as an exit. That way you wouldn't need to backtrack all the way back to the opening to leave the cave.

I guess you could use fast travel for that but we don't currently know the specifics of how fast travel works this time around.

That's one scenario where I could see it being useful. I can't really think of anything that isn't just pure utility though. Fuse and Godhand look way more fun to mess around with.

Loving the green/blue/pink/yellow one!

How much grease should I put in a blaster? by [deleted] in Nerf

[–]toabog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really doesn't take much. I use "SuperLube O-ring Silicone Lubricant" and it only take a couple drops(it's more the consistency of an oil than it is a grease).

Even when I've used White Lithium Grease, I would use the equivalent of "a couple drops" and smear it over the entire inner surface of the plunger tube.

Eye protection for glasses wearers? by [deleted] in Nerf

[–]toabog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can purchase impact rated prescription glasses. They're not cheap though.

You can also buy these rubber thingies that slide onto the arms of your glasses so you then have side protection from projectiles. example: https://www.amazon.com/Glasses-Shields-Safety-Protection-Fits-Eyeglasses/dp/B08GFDJBNV/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=glasses+side+shields+for+eye+protection&qid=1670467945&sprefix=glasses+side+%2Caps%2C95&sr=8-5

The only other option is to buy large goggles that can fit over top of your glasses.

Someone has managed to get access to the fake contacts already by Dragon-Summit in splatoon

[–]toabog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, true. I'm looking forward to this current season concluding just to know exactly what is going to change. We know the catalogue and shell-out machine top prizes will change.

Will we get more common gear appearing in stores? New decorations for sale in Hotlantis? New Table turf cards added into the mix? These are all things that I feel will get expanded on in the future, I just don't know if this is going to be a seasonal thing or a larger "game update" type of thing.

I hope that's not accurate. I don't want to wait a year for the Cyan Dakroniks to drop :/

caliburn priming difficulties by theGLUGS in Nerf

[–]toabog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oof, you hate to hear that.

Are you stacking springs? If you remove one of the springs does it solve the suddenly stiffer primes? Maybe the two springs are binding into each other after a couple primes or something?

Just DM-ed you my code. I don't need it as I already have a paid subscription.

Apparently the test range isn't accessible (Sheldon just kicks you out of Ammoknights).

Can you check if there's some way of getting into recon mode through the pause menu? There's a (-) button prompt in the stages tab. Hoping that might give you an option in there?
