Purpose: After modifying
your SuperMaxx guns (does not include SuperMaxx 250, 350, and not tested on the 3000) you may find that
the trigger is rather difficult to pull. This mod's purpose is to fix all that. The idea is to replace
the spring with a segment of the shell from a Bic Round Stic Pen. This mod may also work on some other air guns. I have
this mod on my sister's 750, both my 1500s, and my 5000 and it works great!
***This mod is confirmed to work on the SuperMaxx 750, 1500,
and 5000 on the new and old versions.***
Materials: 1 Bic
Pen (the kind show here the kind show here )
1 REALLY skinny and round file
1
Hacksaw
1 ruler
1 pair of scissors OR utility knife
Procedure:
1) Open up your Supermaxx gun. Locate
the metal rod that is pulled to release air from the air tank. There should be a spring on that rod. Locate
the spring.
2) Measure the length of the spring in its
relaxed position.
3) Remove the spring.
4) Open up your Bic Pen and remove the internals
leaving you with just the shell.
5) Take the hacksaw and saw the shell of
the bic pen to the length of the old spring in its relaxed position.
6) Take your file and smooth the ends
of the segment of the Bic Pen shell.
7) Using the skinny file, file out the inside
of the shell so that the thickness of the shell is reduced.
8) *Note if
you have a SuperMaxx 5000 skip this step and continue to step 9.* Using the scissors or utility knife
cut a straight slit LENGTHWISE across the shell of the pen. Do not cut the shell in half. If you did it right
you should be able to slip the shell onto the metal rod.
9) Slip the shell of the pen over the rod
into the position that the spring used to be in. If the inner diameter isn't wide enough then redo step 7.
10) Use a small piece of duct tape to tape
up the slit you made in the pen shell in step 8).
11) Connect the original trigger to
the Bic pen in the same way that the original trigger connected to the spring.
12) Close up the gun.
13) Have fun with your new weapon of foamy
destruction.
