Nerf Rival Pathfinder XXII-1200 Magazine Compatibility Fix

thingiverse

The Nerf Pathfinder has a magazine compatibility issue first generation rival magazines do not catch properly, leading to feeding problems. this is due to a change Hasbro made to their magazines to block 3rd party blasters from using them (such as the Dart Zone Powerball, etc) While most other Nerf blasters are backwards compatible between magazine generations, the Pathfinder unfortunately overlooked this. This Replacement Magazine Catch fixes the problem, to allow both 1st and 2nd generation Rival Magazines to work properly in the Pathfinder. Adds an additional catch surface down the center, similar to the "Rivalburn"s method. -3rd party magazines, such as the Worker 15 have Not been tested. Hardware needed: 1 Volute Spring, salvaged from a Bicycle Wheel Quick-Release Skewer. (see photo reference) Warning: precise 3d printing required! perfect bed adhesion and Z-height is required for proper function. beware of 'elephants foot' and other warping print artifacts! part must measure precisely 9.2mm tall !calibrate your initial layer height accordingly! UPDATE: added compatibility with the Finisher 7rd magazine
