    If I'm correct, 16mm UPVC Conduit or PETG.

    I don't think I've ever seen it done with a carbined one. So it's very difficult if not impractical.

    You can but you'll be left with a long length of fragile brass hanging out of your gun.

    If you were to nest that brass in conduit or PVC and added supports, I don't see why you couldn't do it.

    Although, it's not at all practical.

    that should be (barely) enough room, just use epoxy putty to ensure it is straight, and use electrical conduit as a sleeve over the brass (find a wider ID batch)

    Sorry.
    I meant the weights of stock darts, like streamlines, suction, tag darts, etc.

    I just need some facts before making a private intellectual rant.

    Hardly any blaster will give you good ranges from stock. It's a fairly simple mod too, and cheap as well...

    Hey guys just a quick question. I'm just wondering if anyone here knows which of informers dart types would perform well with a stampede that has the ar removed, a serv spring, a tighter plunger seal and a 12 v sla battery.

    I'm only asking coz my temporary darts have been the hot glue filled streamlines and they curve in random directions and fishtail a lot.

    Any help appreciated, cheers.

    I think the problem is the same that I had with my wipeout (big guess). Unless I'm mistaken, they both use a lever action that involves a pivot point, and on the wipeout, there is a large circle thing that looks similar. What I think happened is the metal rod that acts as the pivot point for the lever has become stiff in the shell, and doesn't want to come out. I'm not sure how to fix it, but i'm pretty sure i've identified the problem.

    It's ok, I found out the problem. I had to take out the green circle and under that was a screw.... Unfortunately I cracked the shell a tiny bit.

    Does anyone know what barrel material to use in an octoshot? I was planning to use PETG but people say that it should only be used for air guns.
