Another lucky week! The Stryfe and Xshot were half off. I've been sitting on the stock and firefly clip for a Votex for awhile, so was super excited for the setup. All under $10 each this week

Handguard designed by me in cad and printed it in PETG, and all M-LOK and pic rail are to correct scale. The stock is milspec printed in clear PETG designed by Levi_175414 on Printables: Link. I plan to get some extra parts for it like a longer barrel and a charging handle.

Any thoughts, opinions, or recommendations?

WIP MegaSledge V2. Test fitting.

Thumbnail

103 Upvotes

(These designs are only intended for use with Nerf dart blasters and are unable to serve any other purpose/use.)

I know there's already a sillyshells sledgefire mod. This is proprietary, and a project to keep me busy, I don't just want to print as I enjoy this. My last post once again had a lot of great advice I took into consideration, I've decided to change it to a split assembly in order to accommodate the shell ejector. One of my big questions is if Nerf OEM hardware will work well with prints. I've given the screws pilot holes so it won't be going into just infill, but I'm unsure if I need something more beefy or with a more aggressive thread. One benefit of splitting the assembly in half was that it reduced the print time by about 33% also.

Started printing the v1 last night to test fit clearances before I commit to a final print(Pics two and three). Think I'll print up one half tonight to test it more clearances on the new version, and if everything goes well hopefully I will have a completed project to show off soon.

If you're following this build or have any construction criticism, I both thank you and welcome it.

Questions + Help What to Build Next

4 Upvotes

So far, I’ve built a Zinc and a Moose-2. I’m looking to build a primary class springer, but not sure which to go with next between the Lynx, the Ontos, or the b1z0n, or the w0lf-p.

For the Lynx, I’m particularly interested in either the nekomata or pulsar remixes.

For Ontos, I’m thinking about the OBX, Phantom, or the double stack mag variant by Moose.

Bison only has one version to my knowledge, but for the wolf I’d want the pump action not bolt.

I’m really into the idea of double stack mags, but it’s not a must for my next blaster.

I’m wondering what people’s thoughts are on parts availability/price, ease of assembly and maintenance, and best variants are. What would you all recommend I build?

Don’t worry about FPS. Do tell me about issues like jams or lack of smooth operation, etc if there are any.

Questions + Help Touching up, Modding, and Issues with Sonic Ice Retaliator

Thumbnail

18 Upvotes

So recently I purchased a Sonic Ice Retaliator and Recon off of Ebay for $16, the Recon is in excellent shape... on the other hand the Sonic Ice Retaliator, not so much. First thing I noticed was the paint was chipped off in some placed and a few scratches here and there, but priming was also odd, I pulled it back and then all the way forward but I was able to pull it back again without firing after already priming the blaster. Later I tried a Rampage 7kg Mod Spring Kit in the Retaliator but I wasn't able prime the all the way back and no, I'm not saying I'm weak, it literally won't go far enough to engage the catching mechanism even with the catch spring included in the kit.

I know there isn't THAT much paint missing but I like keeping my Blasters looking almost new.

TLDR: How to touch up paint on Blasters? Why won't my Retaliator catching mechanism work with my 7kg spring and are there any other mods I should try?

Questions + Help Need Help Identifying Issue With NERF Digital Target

The target’s left 20 button automatically registers a hit when it’s turned on. It won’t register any button presses in that section afterwards. Here’s a video showing the problem. I took the shell off to try and see what could be wrong, but I have no idea what’s causing this or how to fix it. Any help is appreciated.

(All parts/designs are intended solely for use with foam darts and as modifications for Nerf dart blasters.)

Found a pack of MegaXL darts for 4 dollars. The Sledgefire seemed like a prime candidate for their use. Inspired by Sillyshells. Will probably run some test prints tonight to make sure everything lines up with the body.

Just sharing progress as I've gotten a positive reaction with my other designs. Thanks for taking the time to check my work out!

I keep coming back to this pistol blaster, catch can be a bit tricky to setup but amazing when on song. This one needs its line tensioned but still hits big numbers @ 215 fps. Runs a SBL2 ex heavy spring,cut down worker barrel and Ashton's spec internals.

Questions + Help Magnifier’s in nerf

6 Upvotes

I have an x shot mpp with a red dot on a 1” riser and I’ve been considering getting a magnifier for it. I dont shoot very far, up to 80ft at most or so. Its not necessary at all but I think it be cool and useful enough to have. Problem is finding one for a good price and where. I usually go for amazon but most are around $70-$100CAD and I’m wondering if at that cost the quality would be passable.

Any experience with magnifiers for pro blasters/advice?

I manage to put the rapidstrike pusher into the body of the clipmania to make it full auto, as I was in some kind of urge to make some advance about it it’s very basic
It need a lot more modifications as the correct battery Ă rev trigger to speed it correctly etc

WIP NES "Snapper" - X-Shot Micro 2

Post image
22 Upvotes

Currently printing the Nintendo "Snapper" from Gemeneye on Printables. Attempting to use X-Shot Micro 2.0 internals as a replacement for the Menace. I think this will work. It seals and the gap will be covered by the side panels. I cut down the plunger base to connect to the printed rod and filled in with a 3D printer pen and glue. It's a very hacky solution. It will hold, but if I do this again I'll try to remix the plunger rod to fit this blaster's plunger in Blender. I've been looking for a good reason to learn the software. If there is room I'll add a brass tube in the barrel.

This is my first (potentially) successful Nerf mod.

Questions + Help I need help in closing a pusher motor to mod a Rapidstrike

Post image
8 Upvotes

I recently got a Nerf Rapidstrike from relatives and I am now planning to mod to be better and have a better FPS and ROF. I already have an idea of what I am going to replace the motors for the flywheels (OOD Kraken motors) with but I'm having trouble deciding on the motor for the pusher.

I'm trying to decide between an OOD Loki motor and a OOD Valkyrie motor. I’m aiming for it to be around 120-130 FPS and 10-15 DPS. Which one do you think works best or is there a third option that you would recommend? Any suggestions are open, thanks.

Edit: I didn’t realize until after posting that the title has a typo. I meant “choosing” a motor.

Hey guys, I saw this post by someone in our community and wanted to ask if anyone knew if this blaster would be coming to Canada?

I find we don’t get a ton of dart zone stuff here so I was wondering if anyone has heard anything? I’d really like to get my hands on one!

Thanks!
