Well i was looking around the internet at some stuff and did my research and figured out how to make a bb gun out of a nerf gun.
Ok im not really sure if i can do the whole picture thing or not so cut me some slack. Alright all you do is cut the orange barrel on the nerf gun down, and take the stick inside out with needle nose pliers or something. Then wrap one end of the pen barrel in duct tape until it fits snugly in the hole. Then duct tape that in tight, put it back in the casing, screw it back together, and shoot some stuff with airsoft bbs. epoxy could be used and would probably be a lot stronger and better. on the sawn off picture of mine, i just happened to have a piece of pvc that reduced from the nerf barrel size to the pen barrel, so i just used that.

Sorry about the picture quality...

P.S. damage pictures to come, it hurts bad, really bad and leaves welts and bruises, dents pop cans pretty bad too.

This pretty much explains how the gun works. the pump is below the barrel, trigger on top.

Well, you can't say he ripped anyone off. Yours is a piston design, while these use precompressed air.
If you wanted some serious damage, replace the tiny pump with a good bike pump and add a longer barrel. You'd also probably need to use a stronger valve, too, like a blowgun.

lol, did you take those pics with a camera phone? i heard if you look on the pump somewhere there is a pressure release valve, if you fill it with epoxy..... but you have to be careful, if you pump it too much... BOOM. :D
