Never take your mods videos down. I'm 36, just got into Nerf moding due to my son, and you my good sir are a fountain of knowledge for this

[@836dmar]

Ha. I’m 55 and have no kids! Hopefully I can find some “old man” games!

[@natis413]

adding a tiny length of fishing line across the back of the brass tube should prevent vacuum loading if you need an example think of the no smoking circle

[@cobbabuilds]

natis413 thanks will definitely try it out 👍🏼

[@leopoldo3884]

good idea dude

[@thesuit4341]

+COBBAcrazy can u help me make one

[@peace198]

Vacuum loading is good

[@Framed_Niner]

No, Vacuum loading will pull your dart back into the plunger, and ruin it

[@The_Real_Ryan]

"How do they get that on in the factory" I wonder the same thing all the time.

[@Sphyxx]

That spin looks so smooth. Great video.

[@arasin.staubly]

Instead of crimping the outer tube on only two sides, next time you might try indenting some friction rings. Get a cheap pipe/tube cutter of the kind that gradually clamps down a rolling cutting wheel and round off the cutting edge of the wheel. Then you can use it to put a uniform indentation all the way around in order to make for a more snug fit.

[@radspeed113]

Could a make a 6mm brass version. I want to be able to take one of these things to an airsoft field and rek scrbz. Sadly there is no nerf community around me

[@cobbabuilds]

highly possible, I would love to see that. As long as your seal is good. I see no problems.

[@jasonward345]

AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE. (nice to see another Aussie in the hobby)

I'm an Aussie

[@twosiwel6609]

Same here booooooooyzzzzz

[@Europium]

Might want to correct the 19/16 brass in description, it currently says 9/1

[@cobbabuilds]

billna billy thanks man 👍🏼

[@You.Never.know.]

You would be suprised how the epoxy and unsanded metal burrs , not being exactly smooth effects air flow ..you end up with a back pressure that causes a sort of blow back hammer effect in the chamber. I work with air tools and know how it can effect the air pressure

[@theaverageredneck8426]

Nice job. Prob. The only you tuber that wears safety glasses

[@neoseeker7160]

well, i building one right now. Crazy thing is i just finished my bullpup khoas. moding us too fun to stop lol

[@twosiwel6609]

Glad to know I’m not the only Aussie planing on nerf modding

[@tamoemetcalfe1666]

great mod guide I just finished modifying my dart tag sharp shot and started modding my firestrike

[@Demonanimator]

Honestly this blaster just needs a spring upgrade. And to prevent dart rupture with long darts, just stick to short darts and the brass barrel wont be necessary. Personally, In my opinion, I just don't like cutting my blasters. Breaches are cool, but why add one when front loading requires less steps is all I think.

[@PAPO1990]

If you are going to claim velocities (even just in the title) where's the chronograph readings to back them up? Also, that barrel looks a bit short for that kind of power.

[@cobbabuilds]

PAPO1990 i hit a 153.09 with it 😊, take the data or reject it

[@PAPO1990]

I'll accept it for now, and try to figure out where I'm loosing air in mine... K26, 3D printed plunger, ram-rod loading only

[@harrybottmtb8947]

PAPO1990 I’m guessing 3D printed pt

[@georgecolwill5314]

I like how he has the Dremel so that if it spun of out the disk shattered it would slice his arm open

[@zoomzoom7660]

i also like that george

[@totemotem4243]

Fire strikes are lowkey the best nerf gun

[@jyuan1999]

wait, shouldn't you prime b4 loading dart to prevent vacuum loading or something?

[@cockmastaflex6996]

how 2 secondary with australians

[@flashfoam2802]

I've only changed spring and 120 fps full lenght darts

[@justacameraman4900]

Stock firestrike is more than enough for indoor nerfing! that being said... who doesn't like to have the more powerful version what you give your friends XD

[@panteleyshmelev9260]

isnt the 17/32 a bit too tight?

[@flashfoam2802]

sorry I forgot : reinforced firestrike a bit inside

[@bipedalnarwhal277]

Back in my day, the Firestrike was a top priming Dart Tag blaster with a reverse rail and storage for 5 darts

[@totophi]

Are you sure you're not thinking of StrikeFire and Crossfire? (same blaster, but different name depending on whether sold in 1- or 2-pack)

[@bipedalnarwhal277]

totophi whoops, guess I meant Strikefire

[@Ike_AW]

If it's 40 to make one, imagion making like 20 then selling them for 80 bucks a piece

[@Kipricoffical]

I would rather have a top loading internal clip version, this shows its possible!

[@shiikon2193]

If you don't have epoxy putty, you can use hot glue instead

[@cobbabuilds]

preach to the hot glue

[@polarbearjf]

@COBBAcrazy Yeh i tested the spring instore cause I could feel it was weak as hell in store so left it behind but this mod looks great!

[@rcupgrader908]

The trigger on your fire strike is grey mine is orange how is that possible?

[@syismadas]

7:13 says plunger head but grabs plunger tube lol

[@liamohara1198]

Funny! He made a front loader into a breach loader! If THAT thing is your side arm in you nerf wars then your missing out. Try a slimmed down and internally modified Retaliator

[@nutwatee5310]

AUSSIE CUZ OF THE GREY TRIGGAAAA!!!!

[@citizenz2605]

Dude i cant buy one of the springs cuz they dont ship to the netherlands what now?

[@rickadriaanslaan6314]

Citizen Z Het leven is kut bestel gewoon een 12kg veer

[@elfdawn1953]

Doesnt matter use 5kg

[@jeffreycarman2185]

I’m going to make one! Awesome work!

[@finnmckay6202]

I didn't know you had a 3d printer how long has that been there

[@cobbabuilds]

Finn McKay not long haha

[@The_Mythical_Potato]

This ain't no Firestrike, this is Ambersmite 💀

[@sachahorgan443]

Woo a Aussie, great Video, lots of help

[@djpon3andoctaviamelody790]

i tried to make a compressed air modificarion to my nerf retaliator but it somehow exploded not like fire everyware it just launched parts of it all over my workspace

[@syismadas]

Nice bro seems a bit too much an advanced for me but Ill stick to my 836 bunnings spring brass barrel mod lol which cost 12$ lol

[@jamesjordan318]

I'm planning on doing a shotgun using mega darts with 3/4 brass tube, however the air tank only can fit 9/16, so what brass tube(s) could I keep pressure fitting to get the air to flow correctly and get it down to 9/16 brass?

[@tunaburnak5650]

Alternate option: One piece for the long barrel plus a ramming rod

[@jadewolf7761]

Where can I find the shortend darts

[@benjaminmacdonald593]

U actually chrono this thing?

[@cobbabuilds]

The_Backwoods_Nerfer i have a homemade with a scar barrel that fires 160fps with a scar barrel, and this is hitting about the same as that. I also hit a 30m flat shot

[@hetspeelkwartiertjeslaatte2624]

COBBAcrazy my jolt can reach 30m

[@vintan8400]

Het Speelkwartiertje Slaat Terug boii a jolt hits 30 feet

[@hetspeelkwartiertjeslaatte2624]

Frost_Bite Nerf mine hits 100

[@vintan8400]

Het Speelkwartiertje Slaat Terug stock?

[@eamonanjaz1074]

wait so could i put like a clip or mag somewhere and make it semi auto?

[@madhatten00]

Those aren't full length darts? How far do u cut down ur darts?

[@qupm]

That Is With Shopee Free Shipping? 7 Dollar

[@AryanGupta-fc2dh]

Could you give measurements for the brass

[@xSpeed2137]

Please mod nerf nite finder yellow Version.Please!

[@waatao9856]

Where did u get the spring

[@ima_bread]

where do you get your brass from?

[@MRDetailing]

It sounds like there is a pterodactyl in the background

[@randominternetbro6562]

Why is the trigger gray? Is it normally orange or am I just an idiot? EDIT: Used Google (I should have from the start lol), and it turns out that Nerf guns actually have region locking. Gray-trigger blasters don't perform as well as other blasters. I think it has to do with AU toy gun laws? The more you know, I guess. Unfortunate that things other than TVs/Videogames/related are region-locked :(

[@pozzycuz9703]

Sounds like fkn nerf doctor “insert the brass and seal it if then cut it off once the opoxy is dry”

[@richardkelchlin8395]

Would it be able to take 9kg with a catch spring upgrade or would it need a metal catch?

[@troybelanger974]

Do you have any data with different length barrels to optimize the darts? Does a skar barrel help with accuracy?

[@boostaddict_]

Can you put a Nitefinder plunger tube in one of these?

[@cobbabuilds]

have seen them done like that in the past yes

[@lucasgregson9057]

How do you know it shoots at 150 FPS?

[@cobbabuilds]

magic

[@sadseal8118]

Lucas Gregson chronograph

[@narco4714]

wow really kool mod cobba

[@georgeskrypec3405]

Great vid bro thank you

[@maorilegacygaming3239]

bro can you mod the fortnite desert eagle man

[@adamgardiner5869]

Great video mate! I've liked and subscribed

[@683dxwww8]

I'm surprised your allowed nerf guns in Australia .😛

[@ohyeahyeah8326]

683dxwww wh wouldn't we???

[@maxklenson331]

I got the firestrike elite but i lost 1 dart but thats ok

[@superwakky2947]

Can I do,this to a night finder

[@cobbabuilds]

maybe, never tried

[@IronDeathStroke]

Oh, cCobba, i didn't even know you had a KZbin channel mate, this was just in my recommended aha. (Manning)

[@dariaamendez8824]

what kind of Spring is that

[@louis2211]

Is it only faster or do the darts fly further ? It's my first ever time and I have no idea about anything

[@cobbabuilds]

Faster velocity = further rangers

[@user-nb1bu5iq2h]

Nice video!

[@CreateVideo]

Great @COBBAcrazy

[@JamieTenikoff]

Still not 190+, cmon boi! ;)

[@cobbabuilds]

$40 for vid, this one aint even mine (now)

[@JamieTenikoff]

I think mine might have even been less than $40 Cobba

[@cobbabuilds]

Tiger Foam from building up parts over time yeah easily less than that, i could pump one out for $20. Well this one costed me $7, but for people that have nothing at all. $40 aint bad

[@JamieTenikoff]

Agreed!

[@joecrosstfxc9566]

'Atta boy tiger

[@kylelyle24]

Hello fellow Australian

[@muchluck7981]

Where did you get the spring from? I am just not sure where to go to get such springs here in Australia

[@cobbabuilds]

Sora.N Minakaze description, and I got them from Aus

[@dislikecadam1926]

It's a jolt reskin

[@kegstafpv5134]

Where did u get the brass from

[@justnerfin5989]

What fps does it get if you use standard elites ?

[@CalebDoesStuff]

Great video! I subscribed!

[@colecrouch4613]

not trying to be a D but u need a longer barel you can hear how loud it is just saying

[@notforsaletoday1895]

G O D Not with brass breeches and beass barrels.

[@notforsaletoday1895]

G O D With brass mods, if its that loud it means the bullet is out the barrel before all the air has been used. I think.

[@BOT76395]

But can it take a K26

[@brucecarlton2781]

What size drill bit did you use?

[@ben-eh3ey]

Can this be done with pvc

[@TNoobz]

nowadays it's better to buy a stock nexus pro

[@K3fnet]

nice stinger

[@TheRealMycanthrope]

The fuckin elbow prime xD

[@curticold6964]

there is a very angry bird living near you

[@bunndyboy]

Hey man were do you get your springs?

[@cobbabuilds]

turf blaster springs

[@daysandwords]

Their website seems to be basically... not happening anymore (none of the links work or go anywhere useful)... Any ideas? Cheers.

[@hkion01]

Very cool ♥️

[@simongavan6266]

Good vid but just saying you should paint it

[@bkzander1622]

I mean, it's still cheaper, easier, and more war practical to use a k26 m6 boomco pistol but okay.

[@liamlorentzen5566]

In America we have more powerful blaster but ours have a orange trigger that's how you know it good

[@evahxh]

I live in america, and personally, i kind of wish that we had gray triggers as well. Idk i kind of like it

[@bunndyboy]

I have two that have orange triggers that i buy from the salvos . X shot rapid fire and x shot eliminator.

[@bunndyboy]

Liam Lorentzen are they from America?

[@twosiwel6609]

But you forgetting that Australia is the best country of all time

[@bunndyboy]

Jarrah Harro it is a beautifully place just shit government.

[@tussalopez]

It was a 8kg spring or 10kg?

[@lymie9155]

7.5

[@drewbenson3558]

no gloves for epoxy putty use?

[@cobbabuilds]

Drew Benson im not scared haha

[@natis413]

Drew Benson they really only impede the mixing of the putty

[@totophi]

I certainly would prefer to use gloves with putty; otherwise it feels threateningly sticky.

[@JamieTenikoff]

I never use gloves myself either, they just interrupt and the putty washes off easily straight after with some good soap.

[@guitarristahobista9514]

Tanto trabalho e o desempenho ficou pior que antes...

[@peterkong8595]

What type of epoxy putty did u use?

[@cobbabuilds]

RaNdOM RoYAle check description

[@googlommolgoog2313]

Lol 7 dollars, in Canada they are 18 dollars. And you wonder why nerf isn't as popular in Canada

[@mitchking1491]

What does the F mean in your FPS?

[@mitchking1491]

Feet? I think that's right. Aussie video threw me off...

[@nerfsquado997]

Fire strike is 15$
