Description
Level up your X-Shot Longshot with this all-in-one front end designed for both performance and aesthetics. Tired of simple, flimsy, or ill-fitting designs? This isn't a remix—it's a complete redesign built from the ground up, blending the best features from various models into a single, seamless upgrade. Plus, it's fully compatible with the popular EX-Bcar!
This front end offers a perfect fit with on-point tolerances. The included front end secures your barrel with a unique three-o-ring system, ensuring a tight grip while allowing for easy access to the spring.
You don't like your exposed barrel? Don't worry about it! This kit comes with a barrel cover that protects your barrel from hits, mud, and other debris, keeping your aluminum barrel in pristine conditions!
This kit also provides a picatinny extender for the top and a smaller picatinny rail on the bottom, perfect for attaching your favorite lasers, bipods, or other tacticool accessories.
Can't get a good grip on the barrel adapter nut? We've got you covered. The included "key" file is a special tool designed to help you easily tighten the nut, so you're not fumbling with small parts.
To bring this design to life, you'll need the following hardware:
!!Remember to deburre your barrels for better fitting with Bcars and O-ring fronts
For print settings, I used 0.2mm layers, 3 walls and 15% gyroid infill, with tree supports.
“Okay, I have my o-rings, but where do I place them?”. Check the reference image, two of the o-rings are placed in the grooves inside the front end, while the last one (and opcional) is placed directly after the adapter threads inside the front end:
One last thing. As user @Onyx_Furrs points out in the comments, it's necessary to separate objects of different colors onto separate plates. This isn't a multi-color model; you'll generate a lot of waste if you choose not to separate the objects.
