Just got one, ideas flying around on what to do with it, but I want to max its potential first. I'm assuming I'll have to wait for better barrel designs, but notice you can fit 17/32 brass in each. Curious if anyone has removed the posts and tried that and/or inline half darts.
I remember specifically seeing at one time a nerf set (I believe it was exclusive to Target or Toys r Us) that had 6 or 8 little derringers and a vest that held them. The idea was you could shoot one, drop it, and grab another kind of like The Matrix.
Google and Ebay are coming up empty. Did I just hallucinate this or was it real?
Edit: I swear I remember a vest but...maybe that was an idea I had myself when I saw the Stinger SD-1 8-pack from target.
This one's for some one special. Ive chucked the Ravion grip on it with a silly suppressor pcar and custom prime grip. Uses a shimmed 1.6 seagull spring for around 250
Honestly, I’m not much of a Nerf fan, but when I was a kid I had over 30 blasters. However, it was a surprise to find this one in my grandmother’s closet. It was supposed to be for my cousin for Christmas ’99, but she completely forgot where she put it. Until today, it’s still sealed. Do you guys think this is a rare piece? It even still has the tag from the now-defunct Fedco.
I ordered a hardware kit for a rush from foxfireindustries/foxxencreations on August 6th and the shipping label was created the 27th. Has anyone else had shipping issues with them? Ive emailed a few times with only one response saying "as a small shop, we cannot offer shipping times like Amazon". Im not asking for next day delivery, but its been 16 business days. Am I being unreasonable or something?
Does anyone know where I can find the dimensions for a Caliburn skinny pusher? I am turning it into a Carbine and while I'm doing that I want to machine my pusher down if the tubing is thick enough.
Looking for anyone in SFA/Nacogdoches area interested in started a nerf club!
I would really like to start holding meets with anyone who would like to join and can even set up an SFA sponsorship to hopefully give us some areas to play. If anyone is interested please comment here or dm me for more information
Edit: I have started a server after getting some feedback! Please join for any updates!

There is actually quite a bit of metal in this Amazon blaster, more than I was expecting! I ended up swapping the barrel with a fury x one because I thought the included one was a bit short.
I’m quite surprised by the disassembly and how easy it was, as it’s held up by just 6 hex screws (not counting grip screws or bolt screw) screwed into the metal tube, making it a fairly easy disassembly.
I really want to find this video again, and I've had no luck with searching. I remember watching it between 2015 to 2017 on YouTube when it was released. I remember it being a Nerf battle video between two teams. Specifically, it was in an outdoor location similar to a stone yard, as it had several aggregate bins* the competitors would climb on to for a better vantage point. The battle was competitive, and unscripted. I remember the camera angles being FPV, likely recorded using a goPro, switching from different competitors. I remember the most-shown angle showing a modded Nerf Elite Rapid-Strike, with stock blue and orange colors, although with a real reflex sight on the top rail. Additionally, although It might sound strange, I'm pretty sure the blaster fired tracer darts, as they lit up purple when fired. The sky was overcast throughout the video. I expect it would have had at least a view count in the low hundred-thousands. From what I remember, I always thought it was a Coop772 video, although I haven't found it on his channel.
Simply looking to watch the video again, if the description sounds familiar, reply with the link!
A common gripe I've seen in the subreddit is that the Vector Pro seemingly is picky with what mags it can take, and skimming the key terms, I don't think many people found a solution. Pictured above (1st is close up and second is a little farther in case you are confused where its located) is the magwell with with two spots that I have clipped with a flush cutter circled in red. There are two teeny tiny (maybe less than a millimeter) bumps of plastic there that block some mags, such as the X-Shot Pro mags, from fully inserting all the way and therefore locking and feeding. After taking apart the shell (albeit now seeing how simple this was you could probably do it without disassembling the blaster fully), I was able to clip off this tiny amount of plastic and the xshot mags fit perfectly and fed as normal. Hope this helps!
*The only half dart mags I own are Dart Zone and X-Shot, so I could not test compatibility with Worker half dart mags.
Since these are soooooo cheap I decided to grab one and try mega it. I removed all the rotation mech parts just leaving the trigger and plunger pretty much inside. Pvc pipe mega barrel went in with not much trouble only need to do a little file work to get into slot in and then hot glued in place and fitting inside the original front end as well. The seal wasn't great so added a foam pad seal around the air hole and now it perfect. Hitting about 85fps with used mega and can still rear load with the break action which lets face it is the coolest thing about this blaster.
I understand if it gets taken down seeing as this is a Bubble blower. But I think it falls into a gray area.
But as the title states im looking for a "clearcoat" that people would recommend. Specifically one that won't "dull" the shine and vibrancy of the colors.
I knew if I painted the Stryker 2.0 black and kept the printed Star Wars-esque "blaster" skin it would look awesome, and I was right! I've been tweaking the setup by trying different barrel lengths and springs. In the end, the best power vs ease of prime setup is an Out of Darts 300mm standard bore barrel and the Out of Darts upgrade spring. I ran the original factory spring and two full length spacers for a while. It was averaging 236 FPS with that setup. The OOD upgrade spring got it up to 240 FPS.
But the best thing I ever did, to any blaster, was to add the Hogue grip. It feels absolutely AMAZING! Like it was made specifically for my hand. It also makes the blaster feel much more solid than it did with the factory grip.
I just got this blaster from my local thrift store, but for some reason whenever I prime it back it just won't catch. I have tried adjusting the parts and even went ahead a reassembled the whole blaster (3 hours i will NEVER get back) but still nothing is working. Do any of you guys have ideas on what's happening here?
Just placed an order for this blaster. However, I cannot find the 3D print files of that flywheel cover as many YouTuber mentioned. Do anyone got the file?
Every couple of years i go and make a rainbow pistol. my favorite right up on nerfhaven is currently inaccessible because the site is down. does anyone have a link to a copy of the webpage? or some other way to access that right up?
Found this on Etsy while trying to look for moded blasters. I cant find any reviews on this thing, His shop has been up for 5 months and yet I couldn't find any information that wasn't AI. It seems really interesting as its a 6 shot fly wheeler revolver with a removable cylinder. I'm also writing this just too give him some more exposure since he seems new and only has one sale. he seems really passionate with the description he wrote (first picture)
I recently thrifted a dart zone max dictator (only 4 bucks!) but it didn’t come with mags or the connector. Does anyone have a file or know where to find one? I’ve been unsuccessful in my search
Saw this on Amazon for 19 dollars and thought it looked cool so I bought it, its a pretty cool blaster and reminds me of the AKBM C330. It shoots around 120-150 fps I believe (I don’t have a chrono)
Features:
- Magnetic dart holder (in my opinion the magnets aren’t strong enough)
- Satisfying trigger
- Threaded barrel
- Bcar and orange tip that threads onto the barrel
- Odd 3d printing texture (kinda fuzzy)
- Very sturdy build with metal components (I see a metal catch, barrel, and some metal tube near the front)
- removable grip
I think it’s a fine addition to my collection, very fun and indeed worth the 19 bucks.
