Baby Bottle Hopper

(the 4B is a work in progress.)

This concept is obviously meant for high (over) powered blasters. It operates just like any other hopper in that the ranges and power decline as the hopper empties.

It does misfire once in a while but with a flick of the wrist, the darts realign themselves and it's ready to go. I've fired off the entire hopper many times and I get 2 or 3 misfires per hopper. Not bad in my opinion.

The great thing about this concept, other than the dart capacity, is reloading the hopper is very simple. The back end simply twists off, you grab your darts and shove them in. You don't have to load one at a time. You don't even have to look. Once you close it back up, shake it around once or twice to align the darts, prime and fire.

I've tried this concept with other similar baby bottles but found that this particular bottle design the most reliable.

Thank you Dollar Store.

...In case you wanted to know, my 4B, with this set up still gets 100' by the last dart.

That, is awesome.

Wow ahaha, I just love the things you come up with. Keep it up MIG!

This is hilarious. Thank you dollar store indeed! Good to see it's *mostly* functional too.

@Tyler Did you really have to quote the entire post... including the hi-res pics? -.- The page takes ages to load because of that lol.

Yeah I just fixed that. Though depending on browser it shouldn't load the images twice. Most browsers these days can detect that the images are from the same source and only download them once.

That aside it was long and annoying. Please guys don't quote the WHOLE thing just to say "cool", especially if you are just replying to OP.

On topic post: How often does this thing jam? It looks awesome. I assume you rubbed off "Baby's choice"...or kept it on for the lols.

This is easily the most hilariously awesome thing i've ever seen in nerf. Good job man.

I had no idea I even quoted the post, sorry about that I must of done it subconsciously.

Suck on this baby!

Brilliant idea, and is fantastically practical for war use to boot!

I was thinking of doing something similar but never got to it. Good job ^_^

You could have 10 bottles full on you in a war and they would take up less room than 18-clips

I'm more into cosmetic mods, but I have to say, the sheer thought and cleverness of this made me want to reply.

Genius.

I may have to try that.......

Hey GirlyGamer! I'm glad this gave you a little chuckle. I am (as I'm sure everyone here is aware) of your talents as well. The weather has started to warm up here in Canada and I've just unpacked my paints and compressor. I may have to venture into your territory soon.

@makeitgo
Oh you're Canadian.. well I like you even a little more now lol
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. I showed quite a few people your bottle hopper. I just love it when people think out of the box and seeing a baby bottle and thinking "ooh gun hopper" just made me smile so big haha.

Get painting! ;p

Is that your face in your avatar image cuz that doesnt look like a 12 yr olds face also check out my channel on YouTube it's called GruglikesMinecraft I do videos about nerf stuff.

keep it in your pants guys. aside from that, another awesome piece makeitgo =D

The only problem i have with this mod, is that the baby bottle used, might not be available in Australia. If it is available, then do the mod yourself!
