Can it Take a K26? - Episode 10

[@scarlettbandit2803]

Wild Berry Skittles. The king of Skittles. You chose.... wisely

[@CaptainXavier]

I did not choose them actually. You will understand tomorrow. ;)

[@scarlettbandit2803]

Oh, I do like to learn...

[@kapincornkernalz5909]

ok....

[@thnx_cul8ter360]

nom nom

[@wardogs3525]

Scarlett Bandit my gf doesn't like that kind she is crazy

[@WalcomS7]

Longshot spring? I have a 16KG longshot spring here...

[@zachkrein883]

hey dude i watch your videos and thankyou for making me laugh daily

[@CaptainXavier]

Hey yeah? That would probably work. You should get one!

[@ahmadibrahim7476]

InstaBlaster

[@MinistryofFoam]

Thank you so much for this series. I have recently acquired some X-Shot blasters and you have saved me valuable time in working out what upgrades are possible. Thank you.

[@laudedbattlecry]

The best spring choice for the BARF is either the stock spring with a omw maverick spring or a omw strongarm spring with one twist cut off. Also you can fit better springs in it if you trim down the plunger support struts.

[@Matt-md5yt]

sweet, hope you have a great Holiday weekend. the Strong-arm reshell would look cool in your colors.

[@hiphip4808]

The Guardian Crossbow looks like a baby swarm fire if you keep the stock and remove the bowarms.

[@meroastisruined3039]

Skittles? Much respect for you

[@benjaminscanlon6041]

what kind were they?

[@meroastisruined3039]

I have no idea, if they are sour I will gain about 30 more respect points for him

[@nicholascoulter3760]

Nathan Beck They are either mystery or rainbow skittles, sour skittles have a green package

[@ENP10]

They are wild berry.

[@snorribjorn5074]

Those are, in fact, Wild Berry Skittles.

[@rap6586]

Lol thanks for the compliments to the Nerf wiki. Happy holidays Captain.

[@CaptainXavier]

Are you somehow involved in the Wiki? Because it is awesome!

[@rap6586]

Captain Xavier I'm not an admin or anything, but I do edit and create a lot of pages there. Thanks for reading.

[@ChewedDart]

13:35 The catch simply rubs a little area of plastic in front of it and the same area at the back of the priming grip. Trim or sand some plastic in these areas and the catch will go much more smoothly. I got the brand new Rebelle Spylight two days ago and mine also had this problem so I fixed it using this method

[@CateChapelle]

The eliminator reminds me of a doubledown I have with 3 springs: The original spring, a cut section of Magnus spring, and I wanna say a triad spring, but it might be just a spring I bought at a hardware store. I haven't taken out the ARs because I'd rather have 2 powerful shots than one weak one firing two darts, but it's pretty beastly.

[@shadewolf5885]

The Xshot Revolver takes a K25 like a dream, cut it the same length of the stock spring maybe a little bigger(by .5-.75 of a coil) and you will be very happy.

[@matthewbecker2544]

Shade Wolf are you just cutting the ends, or flattening them, filing them, or anything like that?

[@shadewolf5885]

Matthew Becker I sand cuz I dont like getting stabbed

[@scarlettbandit2803]

Hey, what about the Doomlands Vagabond?

[@CateChapelle]

Still waiting on season 3 and a centurion with two K26's welded together since you said it's possible in theory.

[@rzrider683]

Have you ever thought or making your stryfes top load able? I know I like to do that a lot with mine, it it makes reloading a lot faster if you do it correctly.

[@jd23basketball24]

Does the buzz bee baron, it has an internal revolving air system

[@Orax1701]

Is it possible for you to do a mod guide on putting the Zuru Xshot Rapid Fire cylinder in a Hammershot? If not do you know if there is a guide anywhere, I have looked all over Google and can't find anything :( Thanks.

[@CaptainXavier]

+Orax1701 it was duscovered that they are the same size and thus thought possible, but you have to fabricate a new rotation mech, which is not easy.

[@Orax1701]

Captain Xavier Ah, okay. Thank you for replying :)

[@eyezuh_]

Jesus the plunger is too big? That's a first...

[@briefsonicstar]

MegaBites456 plunger rod. Not plunger tube

[@lucassurgeon4122]

You should add enough brass to replace the barrels and fit two darts in each to have a proper shotgun. ~ Thanks

[@drearyplane8259]

Wait a sec - if it can take hammershot cylinders can it take the 8 round ones?

[@Sturmischer]

Can you do an episode with the Retaliator and the First Order Storm Trooper Blaster. These are my two favorite springers (I like the FOSTB because it reminds me of a DC-15a although it is essentially a re-shell of an Alpha-trooper)

[@CateChapelle]

Where can I buy k26? I think you had a link in the description of one of your videos but I can''t find it

[@KuramaNatsukiOsu]

A tip for spring uppgrade for the rapid fire: original spring and flip fury spring, tried with firestrike spring but doesn't catch

[@rizenzombie9197]

Hey great vids. I like how you resurrect crappy blasters making them usable. What are some others blasters that have gone unnoticed that you've transformed into monsters. Again great job doing what you do.

[@CaptainXavier]

Well if you have not already, check out the first 9 episodes. There are plenty there that got decent upgrades. :)

[@thedreamsaberchronicles1474]

not sure if this will get looked at. but your arm rifle peaked my interest. have you ever thought about adding a full auto verson to both arms? Basically cutting up two strifes and somehow rigging them to your kit? sorta like thr mark - 1 iron man suit. basically buttons somewhere on the hands. so one moment you have your primary out. the next you just squeeze the switch and you have a on demand dart hose. who knows, maybe you might find some other wonderful idea. maybe a motorised drainblast of some kind. your creative, you'll think of a monster to cook up ^.^

[@CaptainXavier]

I have actually. I have considered a number of options. The issue is activation. The only blasters that are really easy to automate are the Full-auto dart tag blasters (Speedswarm, Swarmfire) but they are bulky and not mag fed. Stampedes are much more finicky about being automated and flywheel blasters required two triggers which is just another thing to go wrong. I will eventually find a way.

[@thedreamsaberchronicles1474]

what about adapting a barricade to be mag fed? its not a complicated blaster to open up and mess with. perhaps that might be a idea. who knows.

[@number01dude99]

you are now my favorite youtuber

[@jaboijoefx7712]

Definitely subbing, nice vid man

[@CaptainXavier]

Thanks!

[@wyarttt_]

lord Skittle... lord of all

[@rzrider683]

You could put a longshot upgrade spring instead of the stock longshot spring, to give it some more power.

[@chatotalks5325]

if you somehow either find or mod a blaster to have a bigger nite finder style prime I will lose my mind cuz that eliminator has the biggest pullback plunger i've ever seen!

[@rezaleon7453]

i know this late, but did you said "More complicated than a longshot" when you were opening up the guardian crossbow?

[@Maniac4Bricks]

Yes, I think he meant, more complicated than a Strongarm since he mentioned before the two are similar in style.

[@ollilehtonen6351]

the XShot shotgun plunger+a high capacity smart AR system. That would be nice.

[@capnk6349]

the zuru revolver reminds me of a nightmag I think that is what it is it was made by drac a maverick with a nitefinder integrated

[@Bigos4]

The nerf rebelle spylight looks really similliar to new nerf disruptor.

[@justterrance7876]

hay Xavier can you use the nerf n-strike elite zombie strike sledge fire in the next episode

[@chef3333]

that x shot revolver plunger tube looks identical to a hammershot plunger

[@Dali_Drums]

the xshot rapid fire's plunger tube looks exactly the same as the one in a hammershot

[@DedikateSSB]

good vid keep up the good work

[@matthewbecker2544]

No clue what so ever what the spring you used in the zuru revolver was? What about specs on length, diameter, wire thickness, and maybe a pic?

[@CaptainXavier]

It was in my spring box...

[@muddy_armadillo]

Will you be doing a giveaway when you reach 10,000?

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes

[@muddy_armadillo]

Sweet! What will you be giving away, if you don't mind my asking.

[@CaptainXavier]

No idea. It will be a simple commission.

[@muddy_armadillo]

That was a fast reply.

[@muddy_armadillo]

It's funny how dumb some people are. He had to reach 10,000 before he could reach 13,000. This was back when he had 9,000.

[@BreakYourMark]

the alpha trooper and break barrel

[@kaiposhard3239]

Break Your Mark plz barrel break I want to see it

[@hades332bc9]

Hey Xavier did you know if you drill a holes in that wheel thing in the zuru eliminator it makes it shot gun I did it to mine and it's awesome!!!

[@CaptainXavier]

I removed the wheel entirely and then bridged the gap with pipe. It make it a little more powerful.

[@braedonsrantsmore2482]

Question can rapid fire take the buzz bee baron spring I am trying get it catch in plunger this is my first time moding nerf gun any tips

[@OsamuWuVT]

for the spylight its the design, my sisters did the same thing

[@lambchops-lol7754]

Do you have to upgrade the catch spring?

[@CaptainXavier]

Usually

[@patrickrandall883]

Merry Christmas!

[@TrappedInTheMatrix]

What was the third spring you used for the eliminator?

[@CaptainXavier]

...I have no idea. Something from "the bin."

[@jedileader0174]

What spring did you use in the Guardian Crossbow?

[@CaptainXavier]

No idea. One from the bin.

[@vegasspaceprogram6623]

I love the nerf rebel shells for some reasons...

[@CaptainXavier]

You should! They are svelte and stylish. There is nothing not to like.

[@vegasspaceprogram6623]

@@CaptainXavier I used to have a 4 victory I found in an old second hand store. I Painted it up and it looked really pretty. I really need to find it

[@CaptainXavier]

@@vegasspaceprogram6623Nice. Still one of the best blasters Hasbro ever made.

[@3bimm]

Two questions Is the xshot rapidfire the same internally as the xshot tk6? Can they take some kind of spring upgrade? Im considering getting one and want to know the modding potential. Please reply, it would be a huge help for me.

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes, and yes

[@lewisferry5156]

The spring is as big as the gun

[@BaconCheesesteak]

I believe the Doomlands Vagabond is essentially the same as the Guardian Crossbow, yes? So it would have the same issues with K26?

[@CaptainXavier]

Yup, basically the exact same mechanism.

[@dannygeorge6320]

I wanna ask about a commission for a volken and a crazy idea if you had the ability to take 2 sledge fires and put them together one trigger but like a rough cut fires one at a time?

[@CaptainXavier]

What is a volken? Do you mean Vulcan? Either way reach out to me via my commission address (on the about page of my channel) I have a friend who is building that very thing with the sledgefires.

[@BryanWasHere89]

Nice, might have to get my hands on all of those eventually. Also, I am curious if the Magnus can take a K26. I'm modding one and it got me thinking.

[@CaptainXavier]

I will be doing an "internal mag" episode at some point.

[@BryanWasHere89]

I had a feeling you might. I was just thinking out loud. I wish the Magnus wasn't the only blaster still in production that used the internal mag system.

[@gabrielgarcia9822]

*HAN SOLO PISTOL AND KRONOS INTENSIFIES*

[@FCtweak]

Glad to see some love for the X-shot eliminator. I rebarreled one to shoot two Mega darts at once, pretty effective. Do you think it's worth the effort to remove all that dead space, make it more of a sawed off shot-gun?

[@CaptainXavier]

It is not really all that much dead space but if you want a shorter blaster it would not be hard.

[@trentremily7928]

Can you make an absolver for ire out of the break action portion of one of the buzz bee shotguns?

[@CaptainXavier]

I probably could...

[@jacobsmokey7]

try some of those 14 kilogram longshot replacement springs on the x-shot eliminator . they are wide enough i think

[@meroastisruined3039]

I think it actually does work

[@mikeycardiff7423]

Could the X-Shot shotgun take a K26 if you decrease the diameter of the plunger rod?

[@CaptainXavier]

Probably, but you would probably have to fabricate a whole new plunger rod and it is easier you just use a different spring. There is technically nothing special about K26 except that it is the same size and many Nerf Springs.

[@madeline4082]

can season 3 be electric springers. Stampede, swarmfire, Vulcan/havokfire, etc

[@CaptainXavier]

It could...but it would be a really short season...

[@angellara1113]

Where do you buy k26 springs?

[@CaptainXavier]

OutofDarts.com

[@jensontaylor4801]

believe it or not I was able to cram a full length Xploders spring in to the bug attack rapid fire and it caught and well revolved

[@CaptainXavier]

I'd believe it. Those Xploder springs are thin so they compress very small but still have plenty of power. I have a few. I will try them, thanks!

[@Jonathan-kq6jr]

Of all things, I'm surprised you never included the Hammershot in the revolver series. Are you doing ones with hammer primes together at some point or something?

[@CaptainXavier]

That is correct. ;)

[@dieselhead7961]

Not sure if you knew, but the guardian crossbow is the same guts as are present in the Vagabond, so I must know what you put in your guardian for my Vagabond build

[@CaptainXavier]

Also similar to the internals of the Battlescout...but in that case they removed the Slam Fire...no idea why. Anyway, I have no idea what I put in it. A spring from the bin...not very scientific...

[@creativeusername9352]

That's a lot of springs

[@bobtehdog145]

Where can you buy k26 springs?

[@CaptainXavier]

McMaster-Carr

[@bobtehdog145]

Thanks

[@zay5894]

please do raider soon it would be really cool keep up the good work

[@JoeKen]

15:11 a little more complicated than the longshot 😂

[@epleprekahn4238]

can a rival magazine take a k26? not to use in a blaster, but to be used in a radio controlled mine. or just a rival mag mine.

[@CaptainXavier]

The spring is not the issue. The release mech is. Designing a remote release mech that can hold the weight of a k26 would be difficult.

[@epleprekahn4238]

+Captain Xavier will the rival magazine fountain if the catch is triggered normally?

[@CaptainXavier]

I think so...I have not played with Rival much.

[@epleprekahn4238]

I know the kaos mag will fountain, but that is a lot of money to spend on creating a mine.

[@Dr.Ravendale]

will you be doing the retaliator in the next season?

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes

[@Dr.Ravendale]

Nice. hope it works because the recon line is my favorite line.

[@joshuellejulian8058]

Nice vid senpai

[@michaeltorna1756]

You should include more shooting test for the k26 to see how much farther they are shooting if you can

[@CaptainXavier]

Well none of these took k26, but I do plan to do more tests in the future. Once I get all the equipment set up.

[@michaeltorna1756]

Captain Xavier sounds cool love the content

[@rzrider683]

Can you do a complete detailed mod guide for the eliminator? I would love to add something like that to my arsenal.

[@CaptainXavier]

...this pretty much was the complete mod guide. What details do you feel were missing?

[@rzrider683]

Captain Xavier Well, I was kinda hoping you could show how to remove the revolving system,but I haven't seen the stock internals, so I don't know if it would be simple or not.

[@raymondwest125]

i got an eliminator with a broken air restrictor, so it can bruise someone at point blank

[@adamroquemore6410]

You have good taste in Skittles, sir.

[@cjckdbdhx]

Could you see if a hammershot could take a K26? I'm considering putting a very heavy spring in mine

[@phoenixlord7818]

probably not because of the very specific shape and size required for the hammershot internals the catch and everything could handle it no problem

[@Flygonial]

More spring in a Hammershot doesn't make that big of a difference. The plunger's indirect attachment with the spring rest and reliance on transfer of energy through bending pins means it'll get markedly lower performance with the same spring load. That and the very specific shape and size needed for it. The stock spring is already pretty beefy, around 4 kg iirc, maybe a bit heavier even. It's not reaching full compression either, and chrono tests have shown that putting a spacer on the stock spring to get more compression is better than a heavier spring. If you want to put a spacer along with a heavier spring, then go ahead, it'll just be pretty difficult to prime and get a good ROF - which is compensated for by getting over 90 FPS.

[@bradmurray1736]

it cant but i would put OMW's spring in it

[@phoenixlord7818]

Orange spring will be more then enough to shred competition without snapping your thumb knuckle after 3 primes, its fun to overkill nerf guns but with the hammershot anything much more then the normal prime and it will start hurting BAD late game like an hour in.

[@LucasoftheSlimes]

Phoenix Lord That's why the blasterparts kit is nice, the prime is much easier with the extended hammer.

[@choppysloppy5728]

Why did you do the hammer shot

[@MrRimant]

Did you ever do the hammershot?

[@CaptainXavier]

Not yet.

[@benjaminscanlon6041]

can i take a k26?

[@gmurphy1028]

Demitrx it depends, probably somwhere

[@WasItSky]

Gavin Murphy I'm probably the only one that is thinking about a wierd place, even though it will probably take k26! xD don't think about it.

[@KuramaNatsukiOsu]

[@jamesdormer4952]

can you post a mod guide to make the eliminator a real shotgun

[@boblovepotato1138]

Where are the air restrictors in the x shot shot gun?

[@CaptainXavier]

+Bob Lovepotato near the end of the barrel

[@boblovepotato1138]

Captain Xavier I just started taking apart nerf and such and “moding” them I really don’t know what to do with them that much so I just take out the restriction’s and see if it made a change but thanks!

[@braedonsrantsmore2482]

You should mod the new version of rapid fire called reflex 6 blue and white one it has long plugger tube I got a lot of power out of mine not sure what fps is I dot have cronograph but it's probably getting 100fps at least stock it gets 80 from what I learned online

[@optimoosejones9493]

I wonder can a buzzbee double shot take a k26

[@Drakonaut]

you should do an episode of like "oddball blasters."

[@grey_the_color5705]

where can you get a k26

[@lalshortshot2051]

Grey Fowler on eBay or etsy

[@Dyfuka]

Nice!

[@thatbaconguy2768]

How about the Star Wars first order storm trooper blaster from the force awakens

[@ninjaguys1000]

do the dart zone blitz fire, (also might make an awesome absolver)

[@vathouisk]

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@KoboldPaladin]

if you had to chose between useing only vortex or rebel for the rest of your nerf wars

[@CaptainXavier]

Vortex. High Capacity (I have several 40rd drums) high rate of fire (that slam fire though) and trick shots in close quarters (ricochets with vortex count and we all know it)

[@boonkiousgangulous8221]

[@eviljester1169]

cool cant wait

[@adamdg12]

could you see if the Skylanders Maverick could take a k26

[@CaptainXavier]

I do not have one, but looking at internal pics online I very much doubt it could. It could probably take a lesser spring upgrade though.

[@CaptainXavier]

Which one?

[@adamdg12]

Captain Xavier the gold one

[@meroastisruined3039]

I found one of these on the ground:P

[@gmurphy1028]

where is the hammershot/sweet revenge?

[@CaptainXavier]

*points to his revolve bin on the shelf* over there.

[@gmurphy1028]

Captain Xavier nice, wheres the episode on the hammershot/sweet revenge

[@bloogaming8827]

Gavin Murphy This is the last episode of season 2. He isn't doing any more revolvers. There is no point anyways. I have a hammershot and it can't take a spring anywhere near that big. K26 is probably more than twice as wide as the spring rest.
