OK,
So I've got my prototype together, and it works very well.
It slides on nylon bushes, and is smooth as and very good to use.
With the nyloc nuts and bushes in place, it doesn't rattle at all, and is much stronger than the blaster itself.
I took it out on our block this afternoon, and what struck me most was the improvement in usability, as you can reload for follow up shots while still aiming.
It is fine with 18 shot clips or drums, but the 35 shot drum would be an issue unless you were left handed.
If I produce a run of them, they will come with all hardware for fitting, and we will do a video demonstrating how to fit it and set it up (it's not that complicated).
And yes, I will include some good polyurethane adhesive tape for enhanced grip.
At 30-35 bucks, it won't be for everyone.
But for me, it makes the longshot the blaster nerf should have made.
I never use one in our wars at home (I always use my stampede), as the reloading was just a pain in the arse, but now it's got some appeal.
I'm going to run one sheet worth of these and see how they go.
I've got a little helmet cam coming, so I might post a video of it in action when it arrives.
