Is this thing any good? Is it worth actively seeking out? I'm trying to look more into the Buzz Bee stuff.

Are there ever reissues of old guns?

>>6344503
they've re-released the nitefinder and longshot a few times. The alpha trooper had a re-release too.

Buzzbee reuses its shit all the time for recolors. The lever action rifle is coming back after all.

Usually blasters don't come back once pulled unless insanely popular like the longshot or iconic for the brand like the nitefinder or buzzbee double-blast.

>>6344612
Gotcha. I was wanting the star lord blaster from the first movie. Internet prices are insane.

Does it have to shoot? They sell Halloween props for like $10. Of course, it looks like $10.

>>6344670
No. I just wanted the guns all of a sudden and saw repaints people did of them.

x4 12 round mags from china came in. Only a week too.

Stocked up on rebelle arrows cause they take out shields in our Nerf games and and I already had a shitty bow.

I recently got that one really awful rebelle arrow crossbow and removed the locks, tightened the string, and removed that stupid wheel. Do any of you have any ideas how I should use this? Loadout ideas?

Missiles and for now arrows and socks take out shield users.
Thing is there's only two dedicated shieldies and no one brings socks. I'm hesitant to use any more than the two socks I pack because I don't want them used be the other team.
Any protips on how I can counter shields? We fight in a two story building with really straight halls. The only reliable counter right now is to fight through the opposite side of the building and try to flank.

>>6346823
Not sure why they should be giving you trouble. Are they allowed to wield a blaster in the other hand?

You modded it too much.

>>6347264

locking features are removed but sometimes a dart will feed into the flywheels and just stop them
Recharge batteries maybe???

>>6346852
One guy uses a hyperfire+shield and the other is this zippy fucker that just uses two doublestrikes + shield. Second one fakes out new players into thinking he's got some heavy weapons so once they back off to do something else he sprints them down.

>>6347264
Not easy to mod that. Lots of shield guys can't feel the difference between a mega and an elite.

Cellphone charm? What?

>>6346823
>tfw you own so many nerf guns but have no one to play with

I got into it with the Maverick and have purchased sets of two Raiders, two Alpha Troopers, a Longstrike, a Vulcan, a Spectre, a Stampede, two Ravens, Elite Roughcut, two Alpha troopers, two Stryfes, a Rapidstrike, that Zombie Strike hammer pistol with two shots, and a Rebelle Sweet Revenge. My old roommates stopped playing after Vulcan came out.

Maybe cause I modded the fuck out of my Mavericks.

What's an easy blaster to modify to use Stefans? Ive always wanted to give them a try

>>6348531
snapfire lmao
or any secondhand n strike non elite since those have guides to infinity

quick question
what is the pipe that is a perfect fit to elite darts?

>>6348557
Elites like 17/32 brass. Aftermarket darts will be a little more smug, so some do 9/16 brass and run the pipe cutter around a bit and make tightening rings.

in terms of bone stock, does pic related put out the most power per round?

>>6348674
I'm pretty sure it actually puts out some of the least power per round when bone stock due to not being an 'elite' blaster (note how the box just says N-Strike).

Try one of the rival blasters at least.

The longshots now are just re-releases. If anything they're weaker than before. I heard the new ones at least have an issue with sucking in darts and jamming when the AR is removed.
Like >>6348687 said, Hasbro will brand shit blasters to look like Elite but will put just N-strike on the box when it isn't the same level as elite. Also no range claims is also a sign the blaster is shit. Pic-related.

>>6348674
>>6348687
>>6348709
Longshots are popular because they have the potential to be modded superior to many things. Otherwise, they're nothing special stock. Rival blasters are the heavy hitters.

>>6348674
Longshots have a gigantic plunger tube that pushes a huge amount of air with an efficient direct plunger system. Modded they're like entry level homemades.
However, the plunger is incredibly heavy when compared to elite blasters and the spring isn't any stronger than the new ones explaining >>6348687
As for >>6348709, the jamming I hear comes from the newer darts. Every mag fed before the Stampede had a slide down dart gate that slides away after pushing the dart into the breech. Now, the older Streamline darts had a long stem that went down a third of the dart. Elites removed this for better weight and balance, but this change means they will often get folded in the older blasters. Stampede and then Elite blasters have a flip dart gate with a small drop down piece behind it; the breech comes forward, pushing the dart into the breech and pushing down the drop gate, allowing the flip gate to turn away.

So, what's the general's opinion on the Rival series? Worth picking up or no?

>>6349225
>100 fps stock
>hop up give magnus effect giving extended range
>chambers round away rather than through the mag letting you have 7+1/12+1 capacity
>40 round mag bigger than any dart system sans linked Vulcan belts
>hoppers anyhow
>balls work better over time as excess foam is shaved off rather than wear out like darts
If they made them look as good as some of the dart blasters, I'd switch completely. Only real downside is the balls will roll from wherever they land, so they're much easier to lose.

>>6349225

>>6349533
Dubs confirm

My experience is that near the end of their effective range they wind up veering off wherever they feel like, sometimes arcing up and going on some bullshit space adventure.
Their wondering souls don't end there though because they really will roll like crazy once they land like they're on some kind of drug and paranoia fueled spirit quest.

>>6351871
Sentinel's good stock. Doesn't use gears so it won't mind an even beefier spring.
Nitefinder and Snapfire are both good modded, though in that line a modded Hotshock would invalidate the both of them. Could still keep the Snapfire as a 90 fps last ditch jolt_(embiggened).

I have a recon spring laying around in my box leftover from a project, anything I can do with it? What other blasters could it fit in?

Got a Retal OMW stage 1+2 kit coming, what can I expect as far as fps?

>>6352022

Didn't have a chrono, but likely right around 100-110

Why does the bayonet not seem to be available anywhere? I am in the UK and its not at Toys R US or on Amazon/ebay. Its not on American Amazon either.

Why is the girl pistol so much better?

>>6352798
Not him but after a certain point, a spring upgrade returns less performance gains than it is worth. The next step is a brass breech, the end all for a top tier spring blaster. After that it's fine tuning barrel lengths, adjusting seal vs plunged velocity, and custom fitting homemade darts.

>>6353157
Probably because the designs are a lot more slimmed down and stream lined versus the boys versions

More like that friend that was a weird ugly nerd in high school and now is muscled and handsome and has everything figured out

Seriously, Buzz Bee is so based. As someone who runs stock wars, Reapers/Champions/Sentinels with EKIND waffle darts are absolutely dominant. The power of the blasters allows for the heavier waffles to be shot pretty hard and of course they're very accurate. It's an amazing combination. I plan on buying multiples of probably every blaster that was in their toy fair show. Hell, I'd replace my entire loaner pile of nerf guns with buzz bee honestly.

Why is it so damn fun to get new blasters? Recently picked up the elite Sidestrike set, Roughcut, and a Triad. All super fun to shoot. I especially like the Sidestrike, amazingly comfortable in-hand despite its small size, and it shoots very very well.

Got my XD close-combat loadout going now!

>>6357473
I enjoy both but prefer Coop, particularly his reviews (the review he did in Drac's style is spot-on, haha). It's amazing how different Coop is now compared to his earlier videos. I'm glad he made the video explaining the change in personality. Good on him for looking to improve himself.

>>6357473

Coop without question. Lots of detail, very informative, chrono readings, usually very objective. Meanwhile, Drac's reviews are "wow this...looks cool...feels okay...yep it shoots...yeah I recommend this blaster." I find Drac quite lazy t b h. Coop can be cringe but his level of work more than makes up for it.

Walcom > coop >= xavier > justajolt > drac

>>6362542

Drac's a slick talker, but his review content is garbage. He takes it of the box, looks at it, shoots it twice, and calls it good or bad. I'm not much into modding, so I'm biased there I guess. I suppose Drac just isnt my cup of tea.

You can tape two jolts together and it would be three times better than the double dealer

>>6362981
While on the subject, a double dealer would out perform a stock maverick but I'd still rather have the stock maverick because it wouldn't jam or have the janky reload.

1v1 the double dealer would beat any stock one-shot blaster unless it jammed.
I'd still take the alternative regardless.

>>6363318
That's more cylinder ala Fearless Fire/Tommy 20 cause of the flywwheel cage blocking the very top. But the Mastodon is BIG, so not being able to load a few chambers shouldn't matter too much.

>>6365607
I feel the same way. There is nothing masculine or feminine about a nerf gun. GI Joe and barbie make sense but not nerf guns.

>>6365607
>>6365674
I disagree. Most Nerf guns are styled for boys. Women don't care about being tacticool. You don't see girls roleplaying zombie and apocalyptic settings. You bring up GI Joe and Barbie, but GI Joe is all about shooting people, while Barbie has no gun-related accessories.

The Rebelle line was created because Hasbro clearly saw from their sales that girls were not part of their buying audience.

It's the same thing with Lego. Lego saw that there weren't as many girls demanding Lego as boys, so they created Friends and Elves. People may call it stupid and sexist, but I've seen first hand how many girls ask for Lego Friends over just plain Lego sets, so these companies seem to know what they're doing.

>>6366635
>Sponsored by Maliwan

>>6366635
I have it. It's great. I dunno about fucking STRONG, but it should be on par with Elite ranges. I was looking for a sidearm that was more substantial to hold than a Triad and this fit the bill. It goes into the tacticool quickdraw pocket of my bag, so the Rebelle streamlining makes it even more perfect.

Unfortunately, it's a smart AR, so you can't really mess with the obvious air restricting that goes on. but I did remove the little cover in front of the UV LED that blocks forward lighting (probably because flashing UV light around isn't great), so it actually works a little better as a makeshift tac light. I was thinking about replacing the UV LED with a white LED or even a laser because it is just such a neat little blaster. Grip is a little cramp, so I sometimes just let my pinky go free.

But yeah. I waited for it to go on clearance for that sweet 50% off. I should have bought another.

She's came a long way. My wars are primarily stock so she usually does really well with the Magnum too. Still tsundre as hell about it though.

Anyone tried using upgraded batteries with stock internals of stryfe? i mean, thermoresister can go so that can be disregarded

>>6369043
I have this awful little thing with the locks removed, the jam door switch in place of the rev trigger for motor braking, and 16 gauge speaker wire. I only run it on rechargeable AA batteries, but I noticed it spins up faster than the stock Stryfe on the same batteries. I think that the brushes in the motors would die a fair bit faster if you put IMR's in them, rewire or not.

They accept full-length and shorter dart magazines of all types. It can use K25 or K26 springs and will get between 155 and 210 fps depending upon the spring and darts used and whether or not you bother keeping the o-ring on the ramrod.

The rear part of the plunger tube is clear so that you can see when the plunger is primed.

The standard barrel allows you to load up to four darts at a time if you want to shotgun multiple darts.

like, holding a weapon in front of himself and colliding with people? I've dealt with a dude like that at my local nerf meets. Good way to counter it is to lean into it and make sure your shoulder is the first thing he runs into, even though he gets the kill you end up knocking the wind out of him and if he's smart he won't do it again

Sounds like he means he just rushes down his opponents with help from the shield and blasts them when he's close. I would hope he doesn't mean what you're talking about.

My group tried to do that shit a couple years ago and I put a stop to it because it was slowly becoming football with toy guns

>>6346823

Coax them into coming at you and have a dedicated person (you in this case it seems) in position to down the shields. Pop the shield and have hidden teammates nearby ready to drown them in darts as soon as soon as that shield hits the ground. You said you play in a building, so I'm assuming there are rooms you guys can hide in?

Spring/summer is for Super Soakers. Fall is when the new Nerf stuff comes out. Unless you live outside the US. In which case, some of the new Nerf blasters are already out. Biggest news is the select fire Modulus and the 10-shot MEGA Roughcut.

I passed up an open-box Doublebreech for $12. How'd I do? It felt nice in the hand, but it's hard to just get around the fact that it's a complicated 2-shot blaster. Plus, the TwinShock is right around the corner.

I know they're judging me on the inside, what can I say about it to not sound like a sperglord? I tried talking about how "If you paint them to look like steampunk, hipsters will eat that shit up on Etsy." And maybe that works?

Damn, that's nice. I got mine for $20 but it didn't have the tripod and the battery tray was eroded.

Is there a way to decock blasters?

The Hammer-Action ones you can just hold the hammer down, pull the trigger, and ease it up, not unlikely real steel revolves, but for all the other blasters, there doesn't seem to be a non-firing method for decocking.

Is there a way to mod it in?

>>6382631
depends on what youve got
single shot pistols hold the charging handle or whatever, pull trigger, ride down gently

Ok, i don't normally post in nerf threads, but my nephews are driving me crazy, so I need to show up next time with something to end their tiny lives.

1) Is there a gun that fires those tiny football esque missles? Like, the underslung big on the ak47 lookalike?

2) Stryfes are like, not a buyable thing right now, right?

as an aside, was there a nerf gun that was a pistol that fired 1 yellow/green ball, or was I dreaming that? is it impossible to find?

So, I might be too late for mergemasters, but I had this idea, I call it the Nerf Hydra, it's a firestrike base, with two jolts/one triad mounted where the ammo holder is, and the top plunger gutted and replaced with a doubledown. That's about it so far, I'm still open to new ideas

>>6387670
I was thinking of putting either the two jolts or maybe a triad underneath. Get a rail-to-rail coupler and maybe it could be a good underslung "masterkey" blaster.

Yes. I host one in my area twice a year and have 16 attendees. California's biggest Nerf War is tomorrow and should have 60+ attendees. New Jersey's largest war is on August 5th and should have 40+ attendees.

There's also Humans Versus Zombies, which I personally find to be pretty gay, but other people enjoy it.

wut? How is a kid buying toys embarrassing? That's like women too embarrassed to buy makeup.

Unless you're buying pretend toys makeup. Then yeah, that's gay.

>fired off about 750 rounds in one night of blaster testing

Is there any resource for finding replacement springs that aren't overpriced Orange Mod Works or similar?

What's the appeal of breach-loading blasters??? My Tek 4/Rogue can fire faster than one of these things.

>>6389814
I kind of want to buy an Ionfire for the attachments, but the base blaster just seems so terrible.

>>6389814
It's different, which means someone might buy it rather than some other re-shell. Also,

>>6390065
I think they do this on purpose: package cool accessories with the meh blasters. I certainly bought a Retaliator because of the accessories and not because I wanted a top-priming blaster.

McMaster-Carr, springsfast.com, or you buy them from a Nerfer that sells them individually

haven't bought a blaster in a while and found several at the second-hand shop today; 6 for $44, how did I do?

the mechanics all seemed okay in the store, but now the rough cut makes a grinding noise when priming. I'm going to have to open it up.

I don't plan to have dart battles, but have some friends who cosplay, so I'm going to paint them up as props

Is there any use for scrap trimmings? I got a bunch of big finger nail sized scraps from cutting down my Lawbringer and I'm wondering if I should just toss them or throw them in a bag and save them for later.

>>6391309
What is that one below the rebelle? Don't recognize that.

>>6391358
firefly?

>>6391368
yes, firefly. strobe still works, I just need to find some glow darts to make use of it.
I always thought muzzle flash would be a cool effect in more guns. was the Rayven the only other that used it?

>>6391449
rayven was just light up mags lmao

>>6390946
>>6391015
How does it feel to rip off good honest working folk...?

>>6391449
Glowshot

>>6391689

Their fault for not researching what they were selling. Feels gr8

>>6391689
even better when I got two long shots for 50 cents each as well.

Nerf guns you can reload >>>>>> that's it

I don't know why, but reloading any gun ever is one of my all time favorite kinks.

>>6392048
But you have to (re)load all your blasters if you're going to fire them.

What are you talking about?

I try to use different guns all the time at the wars I host but pump kit retaliators just make me feel so fucking operator and I can't use anything else t b h

>>6392078
>not pirate carrying jolts and only having one shot each

>>6384617
Look up nerf thunderblast.

>>6389814
It's basically just a different type of loading gimmick. In and of itself breach loading is just kind of "fun" in that it's different, it's just rarely ever effective. The best breach loading blaster I can think of is the Mega Magnus, but that's because it also had an internal magazine to make the whole Breach Loading gimmick worth while. I always wished the revisited that mechanism in a standard dart sized blaster because a breach loading top primed pistol with an internal magazine would make for a fantastic side arm.

>>6391449
The Rogue One Star Wars blasters had a light up muzzle gimmick. But between the added electronic and licensing prices and the lowered performance, I've never actually bothered to grab any of em. They do look cool though and there should be another one based on the Stormtrooper's heavy machine gun coming out at some point.

>tfw everything you even lightly mod consistently malfunctions at random

Hot damn I can't wait for Buzz Bee's fall lineup. I'm gonna slap a vertical grip on a Thermal Hunter and main it for the rest of my life

>>6392714
I'm really excited for there lineup as well.

>>6392714
>>6393508

Coop just did a review on the Hunter and it's incompatible with Nerf mags and shoots 75 fps...

>>6394162
Shaving off a little bit of plastic on the Thermal Hunter will make it compatable with Nerf mags most likely. Unfortuantely I don't think we can count on Coop to do that. Drac is slightly more likely, but since he is literally paid by hasbro in is, "honest reviews" I highly doubt we'll see anything on it.

>>6394344

I'm more concerned about the lower than expected stock velocity. I was wanting something sentinel-tier that could eliminate the need to bother modding things but alas. Back to the my OMW EAT and wrist cramps I suppose.

>>6394162
Why would they go through the trouble of making the an adaptor for Nerf rails but stop at the mags? Other buzz bee blasters are Nerf mag compatible so why not this one?

>>6394842

Probably just design oversight, like how early recon mk II's couldn't take 18 mags

>>6394842
>>6394931
It's basically the exact same issue. They just made the magazine well to small on one end. The Recon Mk 2a didn't account for the rear bump on higher capacity magazines and the Thermal Hunter didn't account for the lip on the front of Nerf magazines. Both these issues can and probably will be able to be fixed by a five minute filing/sanding/dremeling job.

>>6395043
>>6394931
It must be a mistake because why else would you go backward on something like that? Maybe they will fix it in the future but at the price point they simply might just not bother. But, as you said, it is an easy DIY fix.

With the thermal hunter, I think the community had their expectations too high. We wanted slam-fire, sentinel FPS, alpha trooper ergonomics, and a low price point. At least the sight is really cool. Might pick one up, I think it would be fun to develop my own slam-fire mech for it and graft on one of my old raider handles

>>6395163

I just wanted sentinel FPS t b h famalam. I'm sure I can get past the grip, I'm not interested in slamfire, but the stock performance being no more than it is disappoints me.

>>6395163
I think a grafted Maverick handle and salvaged Tek spring could fix most of our misgivings. Too bad they fell for the magwell a mile away from the trigger meme.

What about the slingfire?

Literally what is operator at all about the newer zombiestrike blasters btw?

>>6395524

Hammershot seems to fit your bill and it's one of the most popular blasters in recent years

>>6395269

That's honestly not uncomfortable or even inconvenient with a few minutes or practice. Just strike it with the thumb as you're pulling the mag out. I've gotten quite used to it with the Champion

>>6395524
If you're up for it you could make a homemade or two. The way homemade blasters look fits the poorfag slav look perfectly

just bought a shitload of blasters
dunno if worthy of pics but im positive i have too many jolts now

>>6395709
Any more than 2 is way too many unless you go to a game and keep them as holdout pistols for your dudes.

There was a time when the jolt was hot shit but now it's just regular shit.

It's not even fun for plinking and is btfo by literally everything as a holdout pistol.

Is it just me or is the Tri-Strike a giant cunt?

>>6396593

Triad is best holdout

Hell, it's dangerous as something to run around with + a sack of darts if you know what you're doing

>>6396761
Yeah man. The breech doesn't close completely like retalioids so waffle darts jam me all the time.

More Buzz Bee news from Coop. The Monorail blaster is a jamming POS that shoots 70fps. But on the flip side, the Tactical Storm functions nicely and averaged 82 fps.

Tac Storm is literally Buzz Bee's retaliator so I'll definitely pick it up

Agree and dubs confirm triad is fucking based.

Doublestrike hardly competes except in that it can be used one handed, making it a lifesaver when you get jammed.
Pic related is p' sweet too since it's hardly bigger than a doublestrike.

>>6397268

A couple wars ago, I ran a Triad and a dump pouch of darts. I ran around and took pot shots all day and got some of the most hilarious tags I've ever seen. Probably had second or third most tags of anyone there.
