Got myself a Worker Harrier for a 300fps event in Denmark next month. And got a BK1S on the way. Bought them after seeing your reviews, keep up the good work! You are very much appreciated!😁👍

[@paullassahn4641]

If you want it to last shooting 300 fps you are going to want the sabre priming block, plunger & catch. using a 1.8x350 Swift spring

[@koenkooiman1490]

@@paullassahn4641 ok, I got the sabre parts. I don't have the spring yet. Thanks for the advice!

[@Kannolias]

​@@paullassahn4641where would you get that 1.8? I got mine off amazon from jcgworker and it's made of very poor quality materials.

[@kingofgames234]

@@paullassahn4641 you don’t need the sabre priming block and if you use the sabre plunger rod and catch make sure to grease the catch a little or the metal on metal will eat the catch even though it is metal. It will do 300 FPS on the 1.6 x 300mm if you just get a tighter barrel.

[@JangoFoamFlinger]

Wow. Great video. I can't believe how easy it is to get a Nexus Pro X to 300 FPS. Have you heard of the Siren Mauler, apparently it can go up to 270FPS out of the box. No modding necessary.

[@mattorama]

"I'm going to be ignoring the downgrade spring entirely." Good man.

[@atmaanu4825]

It is even more impressive that you can prime this thing over and over again for the chrono, accuracy, and range test.

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

It becomes a workout when you do it repeatedly

[@Chamdar17]

great video! Lots of good detail and explanation matched by results, and I especially appreciate the 'survey' of other players at the end. Well done, sir!

[@ScottBionicBlasters]

I know, I've watched video before, and I've comments on it before. But, I'm incredibly impressed with what this blaster is capable of, when properly modded. I remember my old Aeon Pro didn't make full use of it's pluger-system because it was tailored for both long darts, and short darts, and by dedicating it to 1/2 darts, lengthening the prime, removing the 'slop' in the Mechanism, I was able to achieve a rather marked increase in fps/mps or whatever, before I addressed the spring pressure at all. I appreciate the simple approach you took to this mod. Though, I've got to order more barrel material.

[@redxarmy7807]

The quality of these videos are awesome. Im really enjoying them. 😊

[@quasistellar]

I had a feeling this would be the result, considering the tube size and length. I'm still really impressed with the stock performance. I think the only thing that comes close under $100 USD is the Trion, and it's 60% more expensive and needs spacers to hit 200 FPS. For a $50 Walmart blaster I'm still amazed. I will also say that mine does have a perfect seal, which surprised me. I feel like this is the blaster that will really change the way kids view "nerf guns". The original Nexus Pro still felt really clunky, trying to still use full length darts.

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

What you can buy on store shelves is definitely improving and as a result, kids will experience hobby level Nerf as they grow up. The inclusion of a BCAR was a brilliant decision.

[@iank861]

Very nice video Bradley 👍

[@natalie_v0.0.1]

Sweet numbers, now I’m not disappointed about getting it first before the siren mauler was available. Ordered the spring and spacers, might try sealing it better like in this video too. Airsoft speeds are crazy for darts, def can leave a bruise.

[@Vincent-cb5od]

The bcar that came along with the pro x set really has a small inner diameter. And you managed to fit in on a barrel which i presume has a 15cm or 16cm diameter. How was that done?

[@Frissdas1207]

I wonder if the international shipping caused issues with your seal. Mine will not gap with my finger plugging the barrel.

[@jasonschwartz9481]

Just out of curiosity, how much performance upgrade do you think you get by just fixing the air seal?

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

Not much, but it all adds up. Maybe 10fps?

[@jasonschwartz9481]

@@BradleyPhillipsYT I literally only play with my kids...well, 15, 13, and 11... So more teens now? And hockey teammates Lol. I'm in Pennsylvania and everything competitive around here is airsoft or personal. I basically have a bunch of Nexus as a base, but am probably upgrading to more of these. That said, I didn't need anything hitting 300fps. But, getting the most out of the base Nexus pro X would be nice. Appreciate it.

[@OldMateOutdoors]

Good upgrade and not bad groups mate

[@Kannolias]

Could you do a 300fps guide on the worker seagull? I'd really appreciate it!

[@himinplazy2491]

step 1: buy a harrier

[@johnmurcott1273]

He already has a mod video. The gull isn't made for 300fps. As the guy above me says, buy a harrier for 300 fps

[@Kannolias]

​@@johnmurcott1273 I'd have to check for myself, but I'm pretty sure that the npx doesn't have any more pt capacity than the seagull does. It may be difficult but i think it's definitely possible to make a seagull hit at least close to 300. Reason i asked for the seagull is because i simply don't want a blaster as long as the harrier.

[@johnmurcott1273]

@@Kannolias the consistency drops like a stone after about 250fps.

[@elldeebee1465]

Have you considered getting a luggage scale or something similar to actually measure the prime weight? Could be an interesting data point to compare between blasters.

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

I have a fish weighing scale I've used before but could be awkward with heavier primes like this

[@Bad_Rattle]

Did your fore grip fit correctly? I feel like my picatinny didn’t fit right

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

Yes it fit fine, might be grip depending

A cool blaster for only 50 american clams is really nice.

[@davev8387]

I am 9, and I just got a nexus pro x. It is pretty easy to prime. Should I mod it?

[@billy_vr]

What size barrel did you use? I want to go to home depot and get a copper pipe and use it as a barrel.

[@NightFury-jd8ce]

Thanks for proving what you suspected ended up true. I have a second Longshot Pro for $35 to try out a 300 FPS upgrade so not for me - love my stock NxP so much easier than original - why undo that easy prime when you can tag so accurately all day with stock easy prime.

[@koolBOY8323]

curious if the roller on the stock AFG would help with that prime at all. i'm keeping mine stock aside from maybe some cosmetic mods, but being that DZ sort of intends that spring with those spacers to be used on an otherwise stock blaster, i kinda wanna know what just the spring and spacers do, without the additional barrel and better seal, and the vertical grip. it's likely a total catastrophe, but it might be fun to watch the crash.

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

The stock blaster with upgrade spring caps out around 250-270 fps I believe

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

Also the included foregrip is just bad, the roller won't improve that cheap quality

[@NepDouble07]

What made you come to the 35cm barrel? It seemed very consistent with that length.

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

So, like a month ago I calculated the air volume and I think I went with a 1.6 or 1.7 ratio

[@strykerfpv]

@@BradleyPhillipsYTso would you consider this peak barrel length, even with a stock spring? considering getting an npx and just sticking a 9$ kuryaka barrel on it with the stock spring and bcar

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

Stock spring you'll probably want a little shorter. Maybe 30cm or so.

[@strykerfpv]

@@BradleyPhillipsYT makes sense yeah. thanks!

[@knevil753]

such a great blaster evern without the upgraded spring. the spacer(s) x spring make the blaster feel sloppy. its one or the other for me.

[@kingofgames234]

I’m actually cooking up a completely different solution to get it up to 300 fps without a barrel collet. But I like the transparency on how bad the prime is 😂

I mean, you could tap the stock muzzle for a grub screw or something, interested to see what you come up with.

​@@tntchickenwingtnt8598too much drag

[@paullassahn4641]

I don't think this would last long. The catch or priming block would probably break in a day. I was surprised how hard the prime is with the heavy spring DZ sells but I suppose they' might sell more blasters when they break innevitably

[@BradleyPhillipsYT]

Good for business if they break, though I haven't seen it happen yet

[@Donut117]

Anecdotally, I have a group that uses several Nexus blasters. They initially had the upgrade spring in them, but something inside the blasters would make a loud "snap" sound and the tension would release. Nothing seemed to be broken, since they worked with the original spring afterwards. Between seeing that and how hard they are to prime with the upgrade spring, I kept the spring stock on mine, and it's been great.

What does just the longer barel with no air leaks with the stock spring do to the performance?
