Can it Take a K26? - Episode 33

[@robboone5657]

Capt, I can confirm that Tek6 springs make a great budget upgrade to the EAT. With the locks taken out, no spring rattle either! With my various unscientific test, it does hit pretty hard and primes smooth.

[@CaptainXavier]

Cool! Thanks!

[@WalcomS7]

Crap, I wish you'd have told me! I would have left you with my RADS12.

[@radspeed113]

WalcomS7 ok I've seen all your videos and I don't know what that is

[@buckethead1127]

radspeed team 113 several tek 3s put together

[@radspeed113]

Jacob Roberts the Nerf Modder OH

[@1Scimetar]

Then you haven't seen them all. WalcomS7 did a whole episode on it.

[@BPWiffleBall]

Hi walcom s7

[@samthelegoman3990]

The plunger tube from the tek 6 fits a mega round like a glove

[@CaptainXavier]

So I have heard!

[@Kermomancer]

The Tek 10 spring fits perfectly in two blasters I've seen: The Blaster Stock and the Hammershot (and by extension, pretty much any hammer action blaster). It gives the Blaster Stock a much needed power boost, in particular. Putting it in a Hammershot gives it a hell of a draw, but a more than noticeable power boost. As for the Tek 6 spring, it makes a fine first step upgrade for the Elite Alpha Trooper. I slapped one in mine and that has made it actually worth taking into games,

[@megasartshack]

the tek plunger tubes also fit modern mega darts very snugly, so they're good for mega dart barrels

[@wapiti3895]

The tek 4 turrets are not that bad if you remove the solvent welded peg and fill the empty line with hot glue for the spring, I actually put it in my rampage, it as needed a bit of hot glue (I like hot glue) and shaving on the end of the piston rod

[@redacted6969]

I like to imagine that Chaylo's box of springs is his version of the spine trophies that the predator keeps

[@CaptainXavier]

...you have no idea how much I love this analogy...thank you for this. :D

[@JP-JustSayin]

I have found that the Tek6 spring is a drop in replacement for the Retaliator/Rampage. Yes its shorter but it works just fine. Also I have read online that the plunger tubes from Tek6's are just right size to be a barrel for the Hasbro red Megas and can be glued together to make a mega absolver. ... if you have a need for that.

[@sirhenners204]

Tek 10 would be a good master key thing if you mounted it on a barrel upside down

[@rocker4144]

Hi chaylo I appreciate all that you do everyone on the channel and you have inspired me to do a overhaul on my stryfe and I am very VERY thankful for all that you do thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@3tomake535]

Thanks for brightening my day captain!

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@Jonathan-kq6jr]

Your first blaster is the original Tek-10. The more common Tek-10 is the second generation version.

[@CalebDoesStuff]

Congrats on 25k! I'm proudly one of them!

[@Korviliath]

can the Lego castle take a k26?

[@CaptainXavier]

What?

[@griffinteter1878]

James Waymouth unfortunetly, Lego castle is allergic to k26,

[@jensontaylor4801]

Captain Xavier when you run out of blasters for k26 episodes you should start can it take a 3s lipo or can it take a xbz tank

[@griffinteter1878]

Nerf wire/ motors have a deadly fear of lipo battery's, seeing as imrs can kill a stryfe.

[@Korviliath]

Griffin Teter too much spring rattle as well.

[@Mala.chai.tea.frappe]

As an aside, just taking the ar out of the tek 6 (the first one in the vid, the one labelled "tek 6") gets some pretty astounding performance.

[@lukericszi2425]

this is my new favorite youtube series. your technical prowess is impressive. i wish i knew as much in mechanical engineering concepts, some blasters r easier to deal with than others. ill stick with my cycloneshock and rampage. for tiny compression springs i clip out battery - springs in old electronics. its a hit or miss

[@owenkennedy3215]

Ah, my favorite part about Wednesday!!!

[@adrianmarshall5851]

Owen Kennedy Monday there's usually tag back, Wednesday there's usually these and then on Friday there is captain x's fanmail. Great week if you ask me

[@zargax245]

Just what I needed to brighten my day

[@stovinbaldwin7558]

Can you fire rubber bands out of EIR?

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes

[@zacgroszman3509]

Captain Xavier muahahaha wonderful!

[@aperson5006]

How

[@stovinbaldwin7558]

You think the TEK-6 prime is weird? Try the RADS-12, that thing primes like a freaking Luger.

[@beretnarf]

I never ended up picking one up, but have you heard of the Tek-5? It looks like a buzz bee maverick.

[@zacgroszman3509]

By the way Captain X, most older Buzz Bee plunger tubes are actually really great mega barrels!

[@jeffreycarman2185]

Thanks for another great video.

[@lauradarkez]

the third blaster, the longer tek-6 reshell thing looks like the thing i got with a Buxton brand floating target system. it had 5 Styrofoam spheres that levitated on air-blower tubes on the top.

[@StSparky]

It's a great shirt; Japan is humid in a way I've not encountered here before. They seem big on the Nerf Stockade at both Hobby Shops & Toy"R"Us. Saw the Stryfe Star Wars re-shell and a target …

[@tatelovell2659]

I sent you a postcard from Arizona hopefully it will get in by next Friday

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@buckethead1127]

Queen.357 is it still really hot up there?

[@baronvonpanzer6594]

Jacob Roberts the Nerf Modder I was just there, yes it is last I checked it was averaging 110 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@nerfinatorrr9981]

Jacob Roberts the Nerf Modder it gets very hot in Arizona but there is relatively low humidity so it doesn't "feel" as hot as a more humid area like say Oklahoma. I've lived in OK and visited AZ and the comparison is crazy. 90° in OK with humidity feels like 120° but 110° in AZ feels 110° (or even less if you are used to the OK example)

[@Crowe0920]

hark! O Captain Xavier, Rejoice for the Beloved Rayven is returning! this fall at Kohl's the Rayven is reshelled as the Nerf rayvenfire! I am so excited

[@flowersonthewall9262]

I have seen one of those Tek10 things in yellow at an outlet store

[@AzuriteCoast]

Actually Xavier, not only can the Tek 6 be the only spring for a Retaliator, it can also be woven into the Retaliator spring and double-springed without issue. (Though a reinforced catch may be needed if the blaster is well-loved beforehand) I made (No kit!) a pump-action Retaliator, it has no spring rattle and I combined the springs. Reconsider it!

[@CaptainXavier]

It is entirely possible, that the string you have is different than the one I showed in this episode. I have about 5 versions of the Tek-6 so who knows. Thanks for the info.

[@AzuriteCoast]

Captain Xavier That was my version of Tek 6. It is the same spring as the Double Shot shotgun, I can confirm that. Keep up the good work! Happy to see you making a video off my suggestion :)

[@bkzander1622]

It's pretty cool how many people like this series. I'm not saying it's bad, but for how basic and simple of an idea it is, it's become a big part of Captain Xavier's KZbin career. It's almost become a meme within the community. I just wanted to add my two cents on this, but yeah. Congrats on getting 25,000 subs, btw.

[@CaptainXavier]

Almost become a meme? I'm fair certain it already is. I can only imagine how many other Nerftubers hate me because of all the "can it take a k26?" comments they probably get now in their comments...I blame myself. :P And thank you! I started it because I knew I need something regular to create so I would not get too lazy. :P

[@skeemeastwood9075]

"I take them from the corpses of blasters i kill" i like that better than "I scravengered them"

[@derpaknight2285]

The pair of tech 10's that I had more resemble the first tech 6 than the tech 10 you had

[@RoryStarr]

If you want a quick, cheap, but decent blaster put the tek6 (or tek4 in my case) spring in a Maverick. Both show up in goodwill with some frequency. For about $5 you have a well-performing side arm.

[@creaturedanaaaaa]

Rory Stevens when you can get the strongarms at the same price if you're lucky.

[@friskyobject4126]

If I want a longshot stock on my blaster for a commision, would i have to pay the full price for the blaster or do you just have extra ones and I could just get one?

[@KDWolf27]

I see those at the Salvation Army for 99 cents from time to time.

[@Ech0o0o0]

You are one of my favorite nerf youtubers! Keep up the amazing videos

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@Pigness7]

i think i might know check etsy, btw working on walcom minifig and a bret saxbz minifig!

[@CaptainXavier]

:D

[@spiff590]

Can it take a buzz bee tek 6 spring?

[@jschlattfunnymic3069]

can the rapidfire as-20 take a k26. you might think this is a joke because it's an air blaster but it uses a spring if you open it

[@CaptainXavier]

I am aware. I am trying to assemble all the similar blasters and do them all in an episode.

[@jschlattfunnymic3069]

Captain Xavier ok thanks you never let me down

[@TheMindRobber42]

I don't think you'll be able to go through your with your Tek 4 plan. The indexer works with the air hole at the back of the barrel, which you said to remove to be able to rear load it. You could instead use a rod and front load it, or figure out a different way to index it.

[@CaptainXavier]

damn...you are right...hmmmm

[@didgeridoodanielle]

i snapped off the dart peg feckers with a screwdriver, thing shoots great now

[@thelgndry1]

Have you ever done the air warriors wizard? I saw the baron but i couldnt find the wizard. I want to make the wizard into an underbarrel shotgun for my super stryfe but I dont know if it will work. Let me know what you think when you get a chance. EDIT: I'm dumb and found the wizard vid. Do you think it could fire all four barrels a short distance, though? You only did 2 at a time. I'm thinking like 30 feet max. I really want it to work like a shotgun.

[@TheStacheIsEvil]

Congrats on 25k subs (:

[@CaptainXavier]

Thanks!

[@griffinteter1878]

TheStacheIsEvil won't be long till he catches up with walcom

[@antblaster9k]

is there anything that can be done with the buzzbee rangemasters tank assembly

[@harrishammond7129]

I picked up a Tek 6 yesterday for 63¢ and wanted to see if it could take a K26... too bad!

[@TheCatpirate]

Fun fact: My first mod was the murder of a Tek 6 to put the spring in a Triad almost 4 years ago.

[@CaptainXavier]

Nice

[@xaviermunoz5357]

catain xavier can you make a integration with the stryfe and the ps3 move blaster

[@SofaPop.]

You are the most underrated KZbinr ever!! In my opinion you’re better than coop an drac!!

[@williamroberts4372]

do you think that the "Tek 10" could be shelled and turned into a Demolisher pistol??? if so how would you do it?

[@alexnam1230]

New Idea: Can it take 4 IMRs stock? (See how long until motors burn out)

[@CaptainXavier]

If you are volunteering to send me blasters to destroy...I still would not do it. I do not approve of needless waste.

[@petersmedley459]

A little bit off topic...well, quite a bit, really...Captain, where did you get your sewage block/anvil? It’s lovely!

[@CaptainXavier]

...my what? O.o

[@petersmedley459]

Captain Xavier, the heavy-ish steel object at the left upper part of the layout on screen, has half round grooves in on end/face and looks like a small anvil at the other end... Very useful for metalworking! Should I see myself out...?

[@CaptainXavier]

Aha! A time stamp would have helped. That is a section of railroad track I had cut and then milled into a fluting anvil for making armor. I have several such sections with different surfaces.

[@alexmarsh4800]

Buzz Bee sidewinder

[@finnvlogsgames6643]

i "modded" a jolt by drying the lube and then switch the way the primer was

[@Mr.Chunggg]

The rouge Buzz Bee nerf gun would not be able to be a rear loading absolver because it would need to click at the bottom, but if you could find another way GREAT could you make an video on that

[@altwelve1]

ok so question for everyone in general but if the captain would like to answer then by all means. What are the internals of each alpha trooper? are the yellow and orange ones reverse plunger and the elite alpha trooper is direct plunger? also does having reverse or direct plunger even make a difference on performance?

[@CaptainXavier]

The Yellow is Reverse Plunger. The Blue and Orange are Direct Plunger. And it make a huge difference. Both in performance and in mod potential. But especially in mod potential.

[@altwelve1]

Captain Xavier ok thank you

[@liamarmstrong7815]

Would the tek 6 spring work in a strongarm? If so, could you use both springs or just the tek 6 spring?

[@CaptainXavier]

Maybe?

[@liamarmstrong7815]

Captain Xavier Okay, I'll try it anyway and see what happens

[@gmurphy1028]

Captain X, could you brass one of my tek 4 cylinders for me? i have no clue how and id like a full out psudo primary made out of a tek 4/rouge.

[@eggbag4182]

How do I take on/off the Tek 6 spring?

[@mikelstimpson9157]

You should see if the blaster-action light saber in your next K26

[@CaptainXavier]

I don't have one...yet...

[@mikelstimpson9157]

Captain Xavier oh I thought it would be cool to take of the extra plastic and attach a reverse rail and attach it to the side of a nerf gun I might be able to send you mine

[@mikelstimpson9157]

Actually I don't think I could but I found mine at target

[@theexterminator3468]

i put a tek 6 spring over a stock spring in a hammershot

[@ronfries696]

You should do a can it take a k26 for the air zone walking dead blasters. They are some of the better stock blasters and would greatly benefit from k26, so I've heard

[@CaptainXavier]

Cool. If I get them I will do them.

[@jenlewis484]

Could you do a China blasters edition of this?

[@drivveofanime391]

can you make a video how you make your monitor attachments ?

[@CaptainXavier]

My what?

[@drivveofanime391]

Captain Xavier your attachments for ire

[@joshking6045]

when will you get new items on etsy

[@yaboidustin2447]

the rouge made a hole in my door stock

[@CaptainXavier]

I assume you live in one of the Japanese paper walled houses?

[@yaboidustin2447]

Captain Xavier no i live in tennesee

[@yaboidustin2447]

in a normal house

[@yaboidustin2447]

and i can barelly prime it

[@hanktheguy3237]

i used a tek6 cylinder as an absolver and it works ok

[@CaptainXavier]

I did not say it would not work. I said there are better options. ;) One of my first absolvers was made out of a Tek-3 and it worked "ok."

[@davengreen8927]

HOPEFULLY

[@bleach1738]

Did you make any mods to your lego castle?

[@CaptainXavier]

Yes

[@TheCatpirate]

Captain Xavier Can it take a K26?

[@Sirenhunter5]

Can a Sonic 6 take a K26 or can it be scrapped for parts?

[@irishjoshplays636]

Captain X, what's your opinion about the Buzzbee AirMax 10?

[@CaptainXavier]

Don't really have one.

[@irishjoshplays636]

It's a nice air blaster with a 10 round rotating front cylinder. It has a very nice air tank. In its stock form it already makes cracks in every kind of dart I put in it. If you want to see it, I can see if I can scrounge up the money to ship it to u

[@CaptainXavier]

No no, I have several of the blaster. I just don't have an opinion on it.

[@tommykneeland5436]

By the way, I know you're not doing commissions but at some point could you still fix the strong arm that I originally got from you around December 2016?

[@sir_goofs9456]

I completely forgot it was Wednesday Lol

[@angellara1113]

Will one of these springs fit in a elite alpha trooper

[@CaptainXavier]

Probably

[@kolbieostrowski769]

the (tek 4) I have and it's called rouge

[@LocomanThemasterofnerds]

Hey cap. Could you do a hammer shot mod guide? And if you have already done one could you link me to it. And also on a scale from 0-Chalyo I am a My grandma because she is pretty much ready for the opocolipse. Hope you see this

[@baileydalton3415]

if you see this please check your commission email I have left some important info

[@adalvlorihuela8172]

is it Sierpinski's triangle?

[@jomolettman9258]

congrats on 25k

[@chatotalks5325]

say capt'n I left a sonic-green deploy at my goodwill because it was not working properly and I aint skilled enough to take apart and put back together a deploy, should I have gotten it?

[@CaptainXavier]

Meh?

[@chatotalks5325]

thank you capt'n for always answering my nerfy questions

[@legitnerf9136]

Do you like sweet revenge or hammershot better

[@CaptainXavier]

Neither. They both have aspects I like. The Hammershot matches my colors and fits my pouches perfectly. The Sweet Revenge is svelte and comes with it's own holster.

[@legitnerf9136]

Nice to know

[@Ryan-br2gz]

the slides would be good for integrations.

[@CaptainXavier]

Very true!

[@nerfinatorrr9981]

Ryan Click personally debating on using the tek-10 slide for a pump grip build. Its large, gray, comfortable

[@Ryan-br2gz]

Nerfinatorrr99 Maybe, maybe I think it is probably best for a fore grip.

[@osmacar5331]

so you're a blaster necromancer?

[@potatortheomnipotentspud]

Can you do a Rival and Vortex episode?

[@CaptainXavier]

Not only can I...I already have...

[@zacharykeen8735]

love your vids

[@donthecon]

would you like the yellow variant of the tek 10?

[@CaptainXavier]

Not particularly.

[@rmboffroading9104]

Obviously we all know a tek 3 can take a k26

[@spacecommunist7374]

I think you mean hex-ah-go-nal

[@huntermiller8451]

can the flipfury take a k26

[@bleach1738]

BLASTER MURDERER!!!

[@CaptainXavier]

*evil laugh*

[@toasatoshi]

Captain Xavier very nice response

[@epleprekahn4238]

Ethan Frederiksen it's only murder if you don't eat every part

[@jrholloway7919]

the tek 4 is a rogue

[@dreadlord5555]

Omg captain your a plaster killer 😱

[@CaptainXavier]

Muhrduhr!

[@dreadlord5555]

Jacob your right I might encourage him what have I become

[@griffinteter1878]

which episode is the deploy in?

[@CaptainXavier]

15

[@alaskanadin]

Is there a spring that is more powerful than k26?

[@CaptainXavier]

Probably

[@LightningEagle14]

I just went to ace hardware, and looked through there springs. There were a couple that I couldn't compress. Like, I couldn't even get them to move. Im not really a kid either.

[@aubreyredding9925]

Me: *Watches this video* Huh. Wouldn't it be cool if I found the three of those I don't own? Then I found 2 of them at a thrift store and have a friend who is getting rid of the third one and letting me have it. Kinda weird.

[@ctgslayer]

Has somebody solved the contest?

[@CaptainXavier]

C t g s l a y e r yes

[@abrokenemmo9254]

Wow buzz bee teks make good parts (not the blasters)

[@abrokenemmo9254]

That is why people give up their life support

[@dewitt3453]

Nerf magstrike or buzzbee destiny?

[@CaptainXavier]

No idea, never used a Destiny

[@dewitt3453]

Captain Xavier good luck on your 4 shot sniper then

[@davengreen8927]

OMG HE RESPONDED

[@banterracoon5987]

Can your castle take a K26

[@CaptainXavier]

What?

[@xaviermunoz5357]
