Adventure Force Thundershot Internals and mod potential

[@jeremymay7171]

Someone should integrate a slingfire stock on the grip area. That would make it a beautiful revolver rifle.

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

I already have plans drawn up for a western styled rifle build.

[@ninjaeddy1717]

This looks really cool! Definitely picking up a few of them.

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Same here, I plan on a number of them for builds!

[@vaquero2322]

That thing needs a proper colt saa grip and it would really fix the proportions. That things just looks like it’ll be so pretty painted up

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

Thanks for the all the new informative videos lately. Keep it up Brother. I really appreciate having such a knowledgeable source. I'll definitely be waiting to get a pair of these Blasters, along with that chain-fed shotgun with an extra chain. They'll look so cool painted up.

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Thanks for watching, means a lot to see some growth in the channel!

[@damion9742]

Mongoose, as always, awesome vid. Question, new camera? Man, i am loving Buzzbee's new blasters. Definitely picking up a few of these. Congrats on getting featured on Foamblast. Nice to finally see all your hard work paying off and you getting the recognition you deserve.

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Yes, new camera for some shots including the workbench, trying to improve on overall quality. And thanks for the heads up, didn't know I had gotten featured!

[@Lebronjameshairline1998]

wow I bought one I didn't go to the trouble of getting it open yet I was thinking it was like just a hammer shot in a stupid shell but Buzzbee and their strange ways still amaze me

[@Essrayle]

Ok, I'm liking that there's potential here, seriously hoping some modders take this and run with it as it seems a better interface with the direct plunger (if I'm not miswording that?) instead of how the hammershot/storm/6sh are wired up. Potential for some more punch or range lurking inside? Oh and quick q- recently my revolution suffered an accident, beyond repairable. Would a 1902 be a suitable and as good replacement, or look in to obtaining a new revolution?

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

There's some potential in the Thundershot for sure, mainly just needing a good spring that fits, along with a good brassed cylinder. Then top that off with a custom grip, barrel, and hammer and you've got a great pistol! The 1902 and Revolution share the same internals, so similar performance there, and same modding potential with either. The main difference is that the 1902 has a heavily solvent welded front that in my opinion is easily to just cut down the shell split instead of separating. The Rev is easy to work with overall.

[@Boomtendo4tw]

Looks workable. Not too shabby

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

I think there's lots of potential there. I need to get one in your hands asap when they're out!

[@null_v2983]

Hope it becomes available for Europe eventually.

[@EmonWBKstudios]

I was interested until you said "8-round cylinder" and now I'm invested.

[@zanecone380]

Cant wait to get these and mod them up

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Same here, I want to do about 5 builds with this thing!

[@user_demonz]

bruh that looks sick nasty

[@Matt-md5yt]

man I hope someone makes a kit for it to fire Half Lengths, it would be cool and nice to see what people make for it

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Absolutely would be great to see people take this and run with it!

[@rudyd1772]

Jake, was this a pre production sample you got? The one I just bought has different internals.

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Mine was off the first run of them. Still production but very early production.

[@fil131]

@MongooseJake Have you modified any yet? I had a hammer break on one so I took it apart to see about printing another one. When I pressed the hammer pin out the one of the black rod pin holder holes separated at its seam.

[@BishopGantry]

How much leeway does the back of the plunger have with the plunger tube primed/unprimed? How is the plunger attached to the plunger rod? See a possibility to extend the rod and move the hammer pin back about one third of a inch to get a slightl increase plunger tube volume?

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

Lots of possibilities to be honest, as the plunger rod is connected to the hammer and plunger head with press fit pins that could be pushed out, and you could 3d print an altered version, new hammer, and with the way that the PT is in the internal shell even possibly do a expanded or lengthened PT. I'm seeing plenty of options, just depending on how much you want to dive in.

[@vitodambra72]

Do you think if you remove the dart studs will the performance get better? Cleaning the hole as well for each cylinder? Looks promising, great video thank you so much

[@milosmods]

Great very nice

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

I think it's got potential!

[@aaden2626]

pretty good system :o

[@ppgdeliverycharlotte7570]

Remove the dart posts from the cylinder to make a judge (Shotgun pistol)

[@GlowRiderzEntertainment]

If we give it a stronger spring i don’t think the hammer or catch to be strong enough to hold up

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

That remains to be seen, but the internals look solid.

[@GlowRiderzEntertainment]

@@MongooseJakeNerf good point, only reason why I say that is I plan on putting a cut down k25 in it

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

@@GlowRiderzEntertainment Well, a K25 is going to break the vast majority of stock blaster components from any brand, so just be prepared to fix it!

[@GlowRiderzEntertainment]

@@MongooseJakeNerf That’s what I feared, if it being too weak

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

@@GlowRiderzEntertainment But that's not a knock against the Thundershot. If you jam the K25 into anything other than Rival blasters, and a few select dart blasters it'll break them without upgraded parts. Heck, Retaliators break on 5 and 6kg springs, with the boltsleds splitting in half where the breech mounts.

[@froogy9218]

Can it take a k26? Probably wouldnt get enough compression/just shatter

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

I personally don't advise K26 for blasters, we just used them in the past because they were cheap and available. Now, you can get better springs specifically made for blasters.

[@froogy9218]

@@MongooseJakeNerf cool

[@dragons_hook]

That's definitely going to hurt the trigger if it's stock. Might even break it.

[@connerturner529]

There's no getting around it though that trigger guard needs to go, doesn't matter what grip you put on it that's too tight of a transition for you to ever hold it comfortably.

[@GlowRiderzEntertainment]

Can it take a k26 ?

[@skrebbytdg]

When does this gun come out?

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

That's still to be specified, but it's supposed to be later this month/August. Walmart has as much to do with the final release as Buzz Bee does.

[@skrebbytdg]

@@MongooseJakeNerf Thank you! It’s nice to have a youtuber that responds to comments. Keep up the good work!

[@MongooseJakeNerf]

@@skrebbytdg I try, but I'm sure some slip through even though I try to get to them all. And, thanks for watching & commenting!
