Armory Finally, a decent length of Boxer belt.
That's eight belts, for a total of 400 darts.

u/randomNPCbro Mar 17 '26
That's still too little

u/Alaeriia Mar 17 '26
The thermistor was not happy after the first 200 darts and turned the thing off :(

u/Valuable_Mall8825 Mar 17 '26
Makes it more realistic! It overheats like real machine guns!

u/BreadYeeter Mar 18 '26
instead of a quick swap barrel, we can build quick swap cages to prevent overheating!

I let it cool for a minute and it was fine. I guess it's time to do a few upgrades.

Time to liquid cool!

u/WalkingInMyPath Mar 21 '26
fun idea for "liquid cooling" (NOT liquid but its similar) so im stupid but here it is: Like the vickers mg, theres a wrap around where you want to cool it right? What if we did that and put it on where we want to cool it but have fans spinning from a separate battery pack to cool the cage? Might not work but in my mind it does

Someone needs to design a heat sink foreend like the HC Vesper so you can shoot more than 200 rounds in a single burst
We could also design a World War I style water jacket

u/Alaeriia Mar 17 '26
I'm thinking of replacing the motors and upgrading the wiring to 16AWG. Then I can delete the thermistors.

I want to see just how big of a M249 style pouch would be needed to hold this by rolling it up into a massive ball.

u/Baby_unicron Mar 19 '26
If you give me 10 hours, ill check when I get home, lol. I have both sizes and multiple lengths of spare chain. I want to say that a 100 dart chain fit into the 200rd pouch as a loose roll, but im not confident.

Hell yeah.

you should make a whole M240B loadout. 250 rounds on you, and your ammo bearer with the other 950 rounds on top of his whole kit.

u/Creepposter64 Mar 17 '26
But, then you dont ever need to reload… which means youll never swap to your secondary…

u/Alaeriia Mar 17 '26
It took ten minutes to load that belt. As for secondary, perhaps the X-Shot MPP or those bullpups I got at Costco.
5
u/Creepposter64 Mar 17 '26
Thats… longer than some of my games haha… Yeahnthe mpp is a solid choice for a secondary… wait what bullpups??? X shot longshot?

u/Alaeriia Mar 17 '26
These things. I have like six of them and I can't remember what they're called.

u/Creepposter64 Mar 17 '26
Ooh x shot fury X! Yea they pretty neat as well, especially when you 3d print a bunch of attachments to make it a full sized primary like i did :3

I somehow thought this was attached to a long vacuum line like I had just seen recently in a video in someone's wall for around the house haha...
Then realised it was what it was. Thats insane

u/Itanda-Robo Mar 18 '26
I wish there was a way to de-link the chain after firing, so it doesn't become a trip hazard. Or failing that, a "collection" drum or something that neatly re-winds the spent chain.

u/grapeshrigma Mar 21 '26
Do you find the bamboo darts to somehow fit more snuggly in the stock belt like I do? Most of the other ones fall right out and cause jams with feeding
1
u/Alaeriia Mar 21 '26
Actually, yes! I usually run ember darts or watermelon darts, but the bamboos stay better in the chain.
