SM 1500 750 Hybrid

I love my SM1500 (aka First Lady), but I felt she'd be better if she had two simultaneous shots.  In order to give her a second shot I integrated a PVC modified 750 into it.  I decided to name this hybrid Kronk.

I integrated my 750 into the orange tank of my old 1500.  This is not an extremely easy modification because it requires some skill with a hacksaw.
 
Materials:
  • 1 SuperMaxx 750
  • 1 SuperMaxx 1500
  • 1 Hacksaw
  • 1 File or Dremel
  • Foam Backer Rod (Preferably 3/8" but you can use whatever diameter you want)
  • Electrical Tape
  • Duct Tape

The following pictures help explain the procedure that I took in order to create Kronk.

My plan on where I want to place the 750 within the 1500.

To accomplish my plan I sawed off a piece of plastic from each "flap" on the top side of the interior of the orange tank.  The size of the pieces that I sawed off were approximately 1" by 1/2".  However, since the hacksaw is not a very accurate instrument I had to figure out exactly how much I needed to saw off through trial and error.  If you are really careful it is possible to keep all the screw posts intact.

I also sawed off the protrusion on the top on both sides.  This allows  the air tank to fit through.

After that I sawed off a piece of the back side of the orange part so that I could let the pump shaft protrude through the gun.  The square was about 1" by 1".

It's all coming together...

Aha!  Success at last!  I put on finishing touches by wrapping a layer of duct tape around the plunger tube to give the 750 a tighter fit inside the orange tank.  A rubber band wrapped around the orange tank and the front of the 750 keeps the 750 barrel straight.  In order to keep the plunger from falling out I wrapped FBR around the plunger and duct taped it to the plunger tube.  The black tape that you see is electrical tape.  I wrapped it around the air tank of the 750 to protect it since it is exposed.  To attach a trigger I did the Bic Pen modification to my 750 first.  Then I was able to put a keyring on for use as a trigger by drilling a hole through the bic pen and sliding the keyring through the hole.
