    GOD!! Capitals man!

    -Back on Topic-

    You could Super glue it back on the hot glue the E-tape, but that would make it alot weaker(structually wise)but usable.

    1.Woops.
    2.I have an idea about cuting a buzzbee shell and using it as the rest of the plunger tube.
    i will post pictures as a tutorial maybe.

    You had the idea? Or you saw it on another forum/website, big difference. If you can pull it off it will work fine.

    Told ya your plunger would break.

    Seems to me they aren't worth fixing. Terrible design just buy a big blast.

    I wouldn't bother to fix it. Piece of junk. If you really want a Recon just buy a new one at Big W for $30.

    There is no fix. try Zinv for an Alu plunger maybe, but that will cost more than another recon

    Look in the trading I'm auctioning 2.

    As for the recon tube, it breaks easily, its a weak and piss poor design so you can expect this. You can either as AJ said buy an aluminum plunger which costs as much as a gun or buy a new gun and gently put some epoxy inside the plunger where the break occurs on the new gun, I found if done right and set to dry properly it prevents it from breaking for a longer period of time, no guarantee on forever though.

    If you really want to fix the blaster,i have a tube and plunger in good condition. Might i suggest putting some cushioning in it etc first though ?

    Big Blasts can be found, someone usually has a supply every now and then, not for long though. This has happened to alot of people, I got an Aluminium plunger to stop this. It doesn't fire as well anymore but I could always sell it when I no longer want to use my Recon.
