Stampede Mod: Parts Needed

The required parts fall into two major categories:
1.) Springs/pads for pushing more air
2.) A strong battery to pull back the stronger spring

You can go with lighter springs that will give you more power, or just simply remove your air restrictor, but if you want the full effect you'll want to do both.


First off: Springs!


The part you want from this wall is the replacement for the reload
spring.This can be acquired at Ace Hardware for $0.89. The
particular Ace Hardware we went to is located at 1900 Business 
Loop 70 E, Columbia, MO. There phone number is (573) 449-7277.

On this particular board the spring you are looking for is the #1 spring.

The next spring you need to purchase can be found at Home Depot.
The price tag above it reads (11/16"X1.25" 2 7/8"X4" COMP). Most
important is the 11.2 kg spring that is being pointed at which will
replace the plunger spring to give it the crazy power/distance. You
can use another spring from somewhere else but try not to go much 
past the 11.2 kg or you could end up breaking the gun.

Also at Home Depot you will find felt pads. These ensure that when
the plunger spring extends after firing it doesn't crack the plastic 
casing.Both the plunger spring and felt pads were purchased at the 
3215 Clark Lane, Home Depot and can be found in aisle 9
labeled "Hardware". The store number is (573) 814-1900.

This is the bad ass lipo battery that will be used to pull
back the replacement plunger spring.  This battery can be bought in any number of voltage, will last for 1000's of rounds, and has a high discharge rate.  We like this one here.  It's 2200 mAh for$11.  I've run a 800 mAh with no problems as well.

 You will also need to purchase special clips (or just make your own)  that will be soldered to the battery terminals. More information and pictures on that coming soon.

To fill up the new battery you will also need to purchase a lipo battery charger. More will be explained about this charger soon.  They run from $10-$20.  We also have a few and would be more than willing to change your batteries for you (it will last the entire game and some)
