About: Welcome to the F.A.N.G., the world's largest and most advanced tactical Nerf team, and the founder of the GFDC. We are The Bite Force, and we're here to have fun! This account will share all of the F.A.N.G. In… Alpha Trooper CS-18 • Barrel Break IX-2 • Barricade RV-10 • Deploy CS-6 • LongStrike CS-6 • Rapid Fire AS-20 • Spectre REV-5 • Stampede ECS Some of the first-generation versions of this blaster have issues with accepting 18-dart, "banana," and drum magazines. This problem stems from the shape of the plastic on the blaster shell, which makes the magazine well and surrounding area too small to fit the protruding portions of some magazine sizes. To fix this, we simply need to cut away a few pieces of plastic from both halves of the shell. Here's how:

Today I am going the show you how to do basic all-around beginner--intermediate modifications in the Nerf Recon CS-6Cosmetic modding, when done right, yields stunning results. A humble foam blaster can become anything from a dystopian “steampunk” gun to a clean cut weapon right out of science fiction. They can even mimic weapons out of video games and movies. Pry out the grey piece and its spring from the inside of the magazine release button, taking care not to let the spring fly away and get lost. This method is demonstrated in pictures two, three, and four. Keep these pieces, as they will need to be replaced. We hope your modified blaster gives you many years of pleasure, and we wish you the best in the future of your Nerf modding hobby!

If you have made it this far, congratulations! You have successfully modified your Nerf Modulus Recon MKII! You will now be able to enjoy being able to use any magazine you wish, and (provided you completed the AR and dead space modifications as well as a spring replacement), experience an increase in power as well.

Replace both halves of the blaster shell, replacing and tightening all screws as in pictures two and three.

Step 2: Remove the plunger from the plunger tube and gently pry the O-ring out of its groove with a flat head screwdriver. Be careful not to damage the O-ring if you plan on reusing it. (Pic. 2) Step 2: Use gloves to hold the plunger tube and drill from the end that has the O-ring. It will take considerable pressure to get the bit to catch the plastic. Wearing a glove will prevent you from suffering a burn on your hand, should the bit catch the tubing and start to spin. (Pic. 4)The front of the original Recon has a small protrusion near the bottom with a five-dot "dice" pattern on each side. This prevented attaching tall barrel extensions, such as the Mega Dart Barrel Extension from the Tri-Strike, to the blaster. The new version has this protrusion removed to give the blaster a flat front.

The Recon CS-6 features a reverse plunger plunger system. Because of this, it is usually disliked in modding communities. The 2008 version of the blaster notably has a shorter plunger tube, due to the 2008 product recall and redesign of the plunger. Familiarize yourself with the internal mechanism of the blaster. A reference photo has been provided in picture eight. The mechanical modifications of this blaster are now complete. To rebuild your blaster's internal components: Step 2: Remove screws. Be sure to make note of each screw's placement, because sizes differ. It is helpful to place the screws on the table in their original positions relevant to an outline of the blaster. There are a total of 15 screws. (Pic. 2) Hasbro Inc. Recalls to Repair Nerf Blasters; Child's Skin Can Get Caught in Plunger of the Toy (Article). Hasbro. Archived from the original on 2008-10-12.These problems can be fixed with a number of simple modifications*, which we (a Nerf war team) will show you in this guide. These mods include: In 2019, the Recon MKII was re-released as the N-Strike Elite Recon CQ-12. This included new accessories and had a new, blue color scheme. Step 2: Tape around the plunger tubing to seal the holes. If you're using glue, make sure no excess glue drips into the plunger, as this may cause the blaster to not fire properly. Removing air restrictors ("AR's") is a common modification for air-and-spring-powered Nerf blasters. We generally do not recommend removing the AR's, as the performance increase gained from such an undertaking is negligible at best, except in terms of projectile speed, which is nearly meaningless during a foam dart event. The primary reason to remove AR's would be if the user wished to shoot stefans out of their blaster, in which case the dart peg inside of the bolt would need to be removed.
