1. Customer Front and Rear Blocks will be finished on monday. The front is done but he mis alligned a whole on the rear block.

2. Breach is done, Came out better then i hoped

3. The bolt Bobbio made is like sex on a PVC stick. I swear to god i could make a PVC spool valve next time.


As of next week all parts will be in, She is almost a sure thing for Charleston.

Here are some pictures of one of the blocks so far...

I would like to thank Wizard, bob, and DrNez for helping me complete this 6 month $1,000+ project. It turned out far better then i dreamed in the beginning.

For now i think ill finish the Mini-Gun, and work on the revisions of this.

We fired the first full Cycle shots tonight.

Hopefully this weekend i will get up a decent video for you guys.

The stats.

At 30 yards we had 6" groups for 15 rockets.
We can currently cycle 3-4 rockets per second.

With a few valve changes and a breach change i am fairly certain i can get a nerf rifle for a tank to cycle at 8-10 shots per second. Problem is one of the valves is over $400 each.

With this cannon we should be able to hit a garbage can Lid at 100 yards with a full clip. which is 10+1 rockets.

My new breach design is going into my shoulder mounted version which should debut Bear Claw or Charleston in the fall. 6 Round Clip and 1 Round per second shoulder Fire Nerf Sniper.

Again Guys thank you so much for your help.

ps. Flicker seems to be having a problem so no pictures for you guys until later.

Too bad your 400$ Iphone would not shoot video. I sent you the grainy video from my cell phone of the 1 nerf/sec test. enjoy!

Interglacials are short and then we enter the nasty brutishness of the glacial periods.

Until you get this monster out of my garage and into the Warthog all you'll be able to empty is my supply of nerfs.
