Ok so I decided not to spend the money on a shock pump, so I used the entire tank assembly from an old bb gun and affixed a 5.56mm barrel to it. I have been trying to shoot darts out of it but all the darts I design don't go far enough, but then when I give them more wieght, they are no longer able to sustain stable flight. Any aeronautical engineers here??? I need a good design idea. :?

Not sure what exactly you are looking for, but i would suggest taking about a 1/2'' section of pipe the same diameter as your barrel and melt hot glue into it, then stick a needle/nail in the middle.

Keep everything lubricated, makes everything work so much butter...

if its 5.56mm why not just shoot .22 cal pellets?

I am shooting pellets, and bbs, and anything that fits down the barrel, but I want to shoot darts :lol: .

Good point, if you're shooting darts a wider smoothbore barrel is more ideal.
