Hey it's your boy,duke.Back at it again with the tutorials. This time I would be covering about reinforcements of the Ret. When I mean reinforcements,what I am saying is that your stock internals won't last long.Hence buffing up your blaster for optimal performance uses up power to a point that the joints of such other parts tend to ware out. To compensate for power,you need to strengthen up other internals where friction occurs most of the time.
One part of the Ret that often breaks is the plunger rod due to the rapid slamming of the breech to the plunger,it can ware out quickly.
In this tutorial,I would be using the Worker Boltsled and Plunger Rod Upgrade Kit.
Step #1
Unscrew and open up the shell of your blaster.You should be seeing the internals you might have or haven't modified.
For this tutorial,I would be performing on my personal Ret.
That's why it looks different from the other tutorials.
Specifically for this kit,the parts we are changing out and enforcing are these two. (and yes,maybe the catch plate at the background.Depending on the strength of the catch spring.)
And of course,these are the parts you'll be using that comes with the kit.Not to mention, you also have that small zip lock bag containing small parts and a small capsule of lubricant provided.
Step #2
For now,let's focus on the boltsled.
Remove the pin retaining your pusher breech.This one's a stock breech because I use this blaster mainly for games that uses that dart type.
Ever since this blaster was broken a few months back,I wasn't playing seriously such as using bizarre blasters and a blowpipe.
Anyway,back on track.
Here's a tip! If you happen to struggle with the pin itself,like if it is too tight,friction-fitted you may use a pair of pliers to pull it out.Well,providing that a good portion of the pin is already out.
Take note,this is optional but if you mind the locks,the boltsled has one installed.So be sure to remove it or else you won't be able to deprime!
You'll be getting this.Some upgrade boltsleds may not come with the locks pre-installed for obvious reasons but personally,for an upgrade part without a lock,is doing a favor for both the company and the modder themselves.
Now,that you've modified the sled,you may want to install back the pusher into the new boltsled.
Just insert the pusher to the slot and place a pin through to fasten them together. It maybe too tight so be sure to use a hammer when necessary. A tap will do and excessive force will surely break your newly attained part.
If you happen to use a pump grip,be sure to put them back in.The modkit happens to come with two pins. So be sure to use your own ones. As for the golden pins given,I have no use for them so I just left them in the bag.
Step #3
Now that the boltsled part is done,now we shall be focusing on the plunger rod.
Take the O-ring given and sleeve it over your plunger rod like this:
And you're basically done.
Technically,not really.You still have one last step to make this work it's wonders.
Knowing that these are parts of friction. Be sure to lubricate them evenly.The modkit comes with a capsule of lubricant so you can use that.
Don't dispose the capsule after use! You will still need it for future use!
Insert the plunger rod into the plunger tube and use the rod to coat lube within the tube.
Also,remember to lubricate your boltsled. Wherever friction is present on a certain area of a shell or internal.Always use the lubricant.
Step #4
Now that that's done, put back the internals:
This time,I've decided to install an Artifact trigger for the looks.
Close up the shell,screw everything tightly and you're done!
Congratulations! You have completed the mod process. :D
