I'll always have a soft spot for PVC pistols in Nerf. They went away with 3D printing becoming big. Glad someone is still making them.

YEEEEES! Cap builds a homemade, this makes me so happy. #Oldschoolcool You’ve got to throw an RSCB or hopper on there, I can 100% recommend Adrian Kelly’s 3D printed wye hopper from thingiverse. I’ve printed 4 or 5 of them and they all work great. Work with short darts and even full length elites. PVC homemades are amazing, they can easily rival the modern 3D printed blasters for a fraction of the cost. I just built my 3rd one (A HAMP) and it’s great. I have a feeling this will give you a greater appreciation for the gift I am planning to give you at the next endwar. (Fingers crossed there will still be one this year) Awesome video.

[@CaptainXavier]

I have one somewhere, could ingots find it for the firing demo. I look forward to whatever it is!

[@brettjc0483]

I made one of these with a 2 ft section of 1/2(?)” pvc attached to a ball valve coupled to a 1 foot 1 1/2” section with a cap on the back I drilled to fit a bike valve. Thing was a blast (no pun intended). You could shoot a dart so fast it would destroy itself on impact.

[@ZakLeek]

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be! Thanks for the video Cap, I am designing a 3D printed kit to make a "snapbow style" blaster out of a balloon pump with a MASSIVE plunger tube, It will be very fun. P.S. Do you have a modular barrel that is just a socket that you can put an old-school speedloader into, that would be very good. Also, you should make a Y hopper that you could use, it would work a treat with the setup you have.

[@jedileader0174]

You should turn a rival mag into an attachment for Eir so you can have a 12 round or 7 round shotgun blast. I would go with the 7 because that might give you the best performance.
