[REVIEW] Buzz Bee Alpha Auto 72 | Entry Level Full Auto Primary!

[@Coop772]

4:27 HERP DERPITY FLERP. I meant to say stock attachment point, not barrel attachment point. LE WHOOPS. This video was actually filmed a few months ago before my eye issues. Tactical shades will still be used for the next month or so as my eye heals.

[@KyleMPrep]

Hope your recovery is going well, Coop!

[@prabhavkaula9697]

It would be reat if you could compare the good ol' snipe to the current offerings xd [OLD VID](kzbin.info/www/bejne/qmPOlqykrM-Xn8U)

[@waffleguy6457]

Not gonna lie your tacticool shades are sick coop

[@matthewthiele6020]

Honestly I just thought you were trying a new look

[@rorixdragonblade8480]

now imagine getting shades with tacticool rails and maybe an n strike barrel lug on there somewhere

[@MrStrikecentral]

A hidden pro to the slower rate of fire is that it allows the blaster to rev back up to full speed before firing another dart. As most people know, if you rapid fire a rev wheel blaster, subsequent shots will have less power because forcing the darts through slightly slows down the rev wheels as they push the darts through. This blaster doesn't have a drop off of performance because the wheels have time to speed back up before the next dart is fed. So while it may seem like a con initially, the slower firing rate actually helps each dart fired get the most power per shot. The firing speed is only a drawback if you literally need to dump so much foam at one time.

[@nuclearhamster]

Atleast you would have the capacity to fire faster if you mod it

[@PurplSkater]

In today's nerfing scene with a full auto blaster there's no use for a slow ROF. Either either a really fast ROF or semi auto with flywheelers

[@wert7773]

The Auto72 is Buzzbees first step into getting out of the “sick man of foamflinging” spot. Gimmicks are really where they excel, but gimmicks are risky due to how experimental they can be. A High capacity low rate of fire drum blaster is a experiment that worked and I’m excited to see what buzzbee has to offer in the 2023 post-covid recession era

[@jacobyetter7347]

One might say they are getting out of the "buzz hole"

[@crusaderxavier]

@Paul Martin and the ugly colourful plastic makes it look worse

[@averagebalkaner1317]

Tomahawk 60 VS Alpha Auto 72 Comparison: Similarities: Both cost $30 USD Both require 6 AA batteries Both use detachable double-stack drums Both have N Strike stock attachment points Tomahawk 60 Pros and Cons: Semi auto Included darts are excellent Better plastic quality Does not include a stock Loading the drum will bend darts Alpha Auto 72 Pros and Cons: Full auto Loading does not bend darts Higher dart capacity Looks like a Tommy Gun Cylinder spins losely Included darts are arguably worse than Elite darts Poor quality plastic

[@mrdanthesnowman]

Gonna need the 420 dart challenge on this one Coop! 😝

[@m00k61]

That'd be awesome. And I'm sure Buzzbee would send him more drums.

[@morithesillyfrfr]

430 dart challenge

[@sonar6175]

That is what I was thinking! A few drums and he could do it with that blaster.

[@jameswright7284]

If he does a 430 dart challenge with this blaster it would probably take at least 3 mins

[@creepermyeeper]

Yep, it has a nice capacity

[@Black_Knight767]

This reminds me of a buzzbee blaster I had years ago. It was a green "tommy gun" styled blaster with an integrated mag, and was break action with you needing to fold up the front half to load it. Similar trigger mechanism, but I remember a slightly faster rate of fire. It had yellow darts with purple suction heads.

[@typehere6689]

The tommy 20.

[@TheRedRobin96]

I have one of those but the front is completely broken off.

[@Spider-Ham]

Brooo i had that as a kid and it was so cool I clicked on this vid because i remembered it lol

[@spinafire]

Slow rate of fire is something that comes up in actual firearm design. There are tradeoffs between being able to spray down an area, and being able to sustain a long skirmish. I would prefer if this blaster shot faster just for fun, but I think the slower rate of fire is pretty reasonable for playing!

[@icy3-1]

The shades aren't gone. Coop just painted the lenses clear :3

[@mechanwhal6590]

Genius! They’ll never suspect a thing!

[@PurplSkater]

But how did he paint it clear?! XD

[@mechanwhal6590]

@@PurplSkaterWith clear paint, of course!

[@PurplSkater]

@@mechanwhal6590 Ah yes! How stupid am I! Ah screw it i love the painted clear jokes

[@ravensshadow2179]

I think this would be a good blast to lay down a steady stream of darts the slower rate of fire means and the larger mag means you don't have to reload. So if you work as a team and use this as suppressive fire.

[@agpiplup288]

[@joshua5483]

You’re looking great Coop! As much as I loved the tactical shades, it’s happy to see you back to your old self again.

[@MultiverseAsheville]

BuzzBee finally makes a good blaster…and they cast it in 1991 fluorescent green, blue, and purple.

[@Chamdar17]

It amazes me that it took this long for someone to incorporate the rev-trigger electronic switch into the first portion of a longer trigger pull like Nerf did on the Nite-finder back in 2004!!! Kudos to BuzzBee!

[@anothrnoml]

many custom blasters have been doing this for a while

[@ddm_gamer]

Buzzbe literaly has already done this kind of trigger with the autotek

[@bravo6959]

It’s been done many times before

[@Chamdar17]

@@ddm_gamer Thank you for that reminder! 👍 I am only finding it in BuzzBee and a custom or two. I am very surprised that Nerf didn't use it in their blasters, it just seems so intuitive and they already had it in the NiteFinder. Weird...

[@MeanBeanComedy]

Buzzbee did this four years ago...

[@totes1378]

And I thought Buzz Bee died but it looks like they're making a comeback

[@monkeyboy1647]

Its good that you recovered from the surgery! I'm gonna miss the tactical shades though!😂

[@josefsieffen18]

Read Coop's pinned comment. This was filmed before the surgery

[@StevenHouse1980]

Well after seeing this video, I can think of a few modifications that would make one of them better. 3D printing a few higher capacity ammo wheels might be an intresting challange.

[@TheSybermedic]

How many years will the 440 dart challenge take with this blaster?

[@nomic655]

9:11 the aftermarket Woozie is the one extreme end, the Alpha Auto 72 is the other. Yes, there are advantages to a slower RoF, but this is way too slow to be effective in battle. Just shooting it on your own becomes really boring really fast, as this RoF is slower than semi auto. I can only assume the slow RoF comes from the drum design. While the capacity and ability to remove it makes it the best drum system so far, the fact that it spins so easily on it's own and the slow RoF just diminishes the point of a drum. Not that I was ever an advocate of them, as traditional box magazines are far more effective. I don't think there's that much reason to buy this blaster. I was almost about to tell you a congratulation on your eye recovery but then I saw your comment about it. Really makes you wonder how many videos are recorded and edited in advance. Though admittedly, the lack of tac shades does reduce style points.

[@A__KyleLim]

Googoogaga, happy your eyes have recovered, Coop!

[@waffleguy6457]

It’s so satisfying seeing it basically reloading itself

[@indominous117]

Hey Coop i got a quick question, will you be reviewing the new nerf "gel" blasters? Their a lot different than the normal nerf blaster, but they still fall in the nerf "blaster" category.

[@PurplSkater]

I doubt he will. And if he does i doubt he'll like it XD

[@eggbag4182]

Shorten it, put a better battery and pusher motor in it, make that drum a little tighter so it doesn’t move around as much, and you’ve got something amazing

[@Train115]

That is a creative way of making a drum mag

[@itiswheat]

5:47 coop looks like that one sus uncle

[@h3avenlyphant0m689]

Hey Coop! Do you think this blaster is worthy of supporting? Like good for heavy gunners or no?

[@penismightier9278]

Get two of them and dual wield.

[@mennograafmans1595]

Well, it taking almost a minute to run out of ammo means it's amazing to keep your opponent behind cover while your teammates flank them. So I'd say it's amazing for that role. Also, the decent projectile-velocity means it can compete when you get jumped as well. So I think it's great for a heavy gunner.

[@lunarkomet]

I'm more worried about the drum rotating with any slight rocking than its rate of fire

[@daftysnake7019]

4:28 year is 2022,humanity invented backward barrel lug

[@LeroyZee]

I think you should make a T shirt saying “There’s No N-Strike Barrel Lug”.

[@Fregithedrag0n]

Yooo Coop good to see you back hope your eyes Arne doping Well

[@DevoutSoldierYT]

Hmmm. Interesting. I'll wait until they'll make a second version with better quality parts, higher rate of fire (100 FPS kid friendly), etc. Hopefully it happens in the future. Seems like a wonderful gift item for a group of kids.

[@chipsahoyboy5407]

They just had to be different with the battery installation

[@Beegrene]

They probably couldn't make it shoot faster if they wanted to. That's a real big drum to rotate into place for each shot. Moving it any faster would probably cause mechanical problems.

[@typehere6689]

That could probably be done, but may require reinforcement of the indexing mechanism and a stronger motor.

It’s available on pre-order now!

[@newbthinker]

Same, reallly curious on Coop's opinion of Gel blasters and would love to see him run them through his usual review process

[@IchiroSkywalker]

I'm interested in the loading mechanism of this blaster because, at 6:18, it is clear that the darts from the inner circle drop into position, but how does the dart stay in the shooting position instead of slipping back into the inner circle?

[@Thelothuo]

Just a lightly sprung lever in the drum itself that pushes outward in the Up direction which can be seen through the clear front plate in the drum loading section. This is also why the drum freewheels- to load all chambers you will have to roll the topmost chambers away from the firing position so the ramp is no longer sticking into those chambers.

[@Jan_Iedema]

You healed up nice dude! Wouldn’t even know anything had happened if hadn’t read your update. On another note, is it just me or is that blaster huge? I mean you’re a big dude and it still looks large in your hands. Would look funny in a kids hands I guess
