DartKrafts Retaliconshot Plunger Spring Retainer by DartKrafts

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is a spring retainer for application when converting a Nerf Recon to make use of Nerf Retaliator internal components.
Due to the Recon having a greater diameter hole in the plunger spring stop, the Retaliator's spring will not rest, and passes through. This eliminates that.
Can also be used for XPT (Expanded plunger tube) Retaliators to assist in adding guidance to the plunger rod, which is nessesary due to the greater diameter plunger head yet smaller spring diameter, which if not guided, can result in misalignment of the plunger rod during firing, resulting obviously, in lesser performance.
The retainer will take up to a 12KG Turf spring (27mm compressed length, most springs are around the 21-22mm mark). The retainer can be used with the supplied 1, 2, 3mm shims to fill out the compression on any shorter compressed springs. If you print the 3 shims it will give you combinations ranging from 1-6mm, if you print two 2mm shims with the rest it will give you a combination ranging from 1-8mm!
Update: File changed to 'Open ended' version so it is compatible with stock Retaliator tube and plunger tolerances.
