It's worth mentioning that the collet attachment is not only more convenient than the grub screws, but also more accurate. If you don't manually tighten those screws carefully, the bcar ends up slightly misaligned with the barrel. The collet, by design, can't misalign since it's radially symmetrical. It may not be a big deal in most applications, but for precision and accuracy at extreme ranges, it definitely comes into play. There's really no justification for grub screws on such an expensive bcar when collets are widespread at this point.
@James-nd2yk6 ай бұрын
That is definitely true, especially for both swapping barrels (or bcars between blasters) or for alignment with the barrel itself (as collets are generally self aligning)
@BradleyPhillipsYT6 ай бұрын
I definitely prefer the collet design myself. Hopefully Sabre add one to their bcar.

holy heck those are both exceptional groupings. Time to retire my fishing line unit... though at my ranges (the full length of the bedroom hallway), I suspect they'd perform similarly 🤣

Been using F&A BCAR since they popped up on OOD awhile ago, before the Sabre one was out. I liked it so much that I bought a second one for another blaster. I can't get over how freaking cool the hiss from the F&A is. And the laser accuracy. I still want a Sabre.. but that F&A hiss is just neat as heck.

Very good video! I really like the way you are testing the blasters, it's probably the most objective tests in nerf hobby. Are you going to make a review of the new worker bcar in future?
@BradleyPhillipsYT6 ай бұрын
Yes that's next week

Solid comparison video. If I can offer a piece of advice for accuracy testing though, you’d really benefit from building some kind of remote fire testing rig. Some kind of setup where the foam blaster is locked in a consistent stationary position, where you can pull the trigger either from a distance or otherwise in a way that imparts minimal influence on the blaster. It might seem overkill, but you clearly are interested in precision and it’s something I haven’t seen others in the space doing

@Dryxhyl6 ай бұрын
Perhaps one criteria not being discussed yet is the precision and quality of the bearings (ABEC rating). I've tested between ABEC5 and 7 bearings, and the ABEC7 do have lesser lateral wobble, and feels to result in better grouping
@stihl8886 ай бұрын
Very interesting, would be interested in seeing a pointed tip mod to increase the ballistic coefficiency while you're at it, see how far you can take the accuracy and tighten the groupings!

Currently I'm using a GavinFuzzyCustoms 9 bearing, 8° BCAR on my Nexus Pro and a Worker 20 bearing, 8° BCAR on my Worker Swift. The GavinFuzzyCustoms BCAR actually uses o-rings for its friction fit and it works exceptionally well. Very good accuracy out of it. For $30 it's priced very well. The Worker 8° BCAR is just a standard friction fit, no garden hose clamping method, no set screws and no o-rings. I had to use a bit of electrical tape to get a firm fit, but it also seems to be very accurate. $45 is also very reasonable for the quality. 8° Just seems to be the best all around angle for BCARS, but the amount of bearings seems to make a bit of a difference too. Loved the video by the way. I'm always excited to see your testing videos to help give me ideas on how to make the most out of my blasters.

I use the flag and armor 10 degree printed BCAR and they are very accurate for my 200fps blasters. I might have to give one of these a try as well.
@jemeljordan-butler45106 ай бұрын
Did you ever do any more testing on the JCPB “air BCAR?” I got one and I thought your theory on it helping performance with barrels that are too short quite interesting.

Hi Bradley, isn't that F&A/JingJia BCAR 15 degrees? The out of darts version is (not sure if foamworks is selling the same or a slower twist) but if so that would expect the poor grouping at this velocity. Might be a better comparison to also throw gavinfuzzycustoms (8degree) and a mego (5degree) into the mix.
@BradleyPhillipsYT6 ай бұрын
It's definitely 8 degrees. Not sure whether OOD may have mislabeled theirs as 15 degrees.
@James-nd2yk6 ай бұрын
@BradleyPhillipsYT I went through the photos and the jingjia images for flag and armour for the 5degree and 15degree models are all 8degrees, so wonder if it's just one batch and all mislabelled. Sabre measure as 5 degrees atleast. Had a look at a few other brands labelled as 5 and they also appear to be 8. Atleast sabre can use a protractor!
@mhebert3506 ай бұрын
no surprise here, sabre products are high end. I rock their bcar on both my storm and my ultima (got 2 of them, one came with the ultima), cant use anything else now that ive tasted it lol

I have that flag and armor bcar, and it makes darts shoot out of my harrier like a laser. Although that Sabre bcar is sexy, its like... more expensive than some mid range blasters, which is silly. the F&A is like 95% of the bcar efficiency at 40% the price, its like a no brainer.
@Antmac7513 күн бұрын
I just fitted a sabre bcar to my baize. It has a sabre barrel and averages around 325fps with worker bamboo heavy darts. I am gutted , darts fish tail out of control with a random laser every now and then. With around a 3+meter spread at 20m. Honestly i wont be using it. 😢

You can get a size of aluminium that fits over the brass perfectly and then you could use any normal BCAR
