Instructions
Sawed Off Shotgun
Mark on the barrel of the gun where you want to cut the barrel down to. The Buzz Bee barrel can be as short as just a few inches beyond the slide portion of the gun without losing accuracy or functionality of the gun.
Place the gun into a vice to hold it steady while being cut. Use a Dremel or other light saw to cut through the plastic material. Do not discard the cut off end.
Remove the end cap piece from the barrel with a Dremel saw. The barrel is glued to the end piece, use a routing attachment to bore out the old barrel from the end cap.
Place the end cap piece onto the end of the Buzz Bee barrel and glue it in place with super glue.
Half Ejecting Shells
Remove the shell from the gun and set it on a flat surface.
Wrap a 5-inch piece of clear tape around the tapered end of the shell casing. This will keep the shell from flying out of the gun after firing, lowering the risk of losing shells and allowing you to remove the shells by hand for reloading.
Fire the gun and open the barrel. If the shells fly out of the gun, add more tape around the tapered end. If the shells are stuck or do not emerge at least half way out of the barrel, remove some tape. Continue adjusting the amount of tape on the shells until the shells emerge about half way out of the barrel upon opening the gun.
Increasing Dart Distance
Place a nail through the hole of the shotgun shell and tap on the nail gently with a hammer until the center section of the shell comes out the open end.
Remove the spring from inside the shell and replace it with a larger spring that will provide more compression and expansion when the gun is cocked and fired. The replacement spring must be able to fit into the shell so cut with wire snips if the replacement is too big.
Replace the center piece back into the shell until it snaps.
Fire darts out of the gun for practice. Make adjustments to the length or type of spring inside the shell to find the maximum results.
