I just love that unscrewing equipment is becoming a running gag. Also, I was expecting sabots at the end, but a 3d printed dart also works.

[@ANameToGoBy]

@@mattie_y Why would you? Clearly what you're doing works!

[@agiliteka]

a sabot would be sick to see, might not work at this scale, but a subcalibre dart might go a long way

[@aidanlimhuadenghshs]

As a nerf and firearms enthusiast, I thought of tapping gas out like a real rifle when I heard about the dart bursting. If your theory is correct, by drilling a hole near the end of the tube, excess "gas" will be tapped out and you can use it to load another dart /j For those wondering, that last bit was for real rifles. But in this case, I suppose just having a tapered hole near the end of the barrel can possibly remove excess air. Matt, you should really try this and put it back into the shell and do cosmetic mods and make it cooler! Although this was cool enough. Seeing your streak of pressured air blasters, what about using the tapped gas into a extra gas chamber, then using the extra air, why not make a masterkey? Im no engineer but using my logic, it is possible to do so. Also, I almost had an aneurysm seeing you put the blaster into a dryer- I should do that too XD

[@gdplayer19]

Maybe a curved end like a blunderbuss so that the air escape isn't as harsh?

[@Katvanished]

I was thinking the same thing. drill some holes in the long barrel, then stick a "muzzle break" over the real muzzle break to make it look good

[@trap9388]

I think the issue is that the dart bursts before its hardly even moved, the air slams into the dart and bursts it before it reaches any real speed. Maybe isntead he could either use some form of packing material/wadding to absorb it, or use harder darts. the longer barrel was a good idea but maybe not long enough.

[@tovarisch3490]

Maybe you can redirect the air to push back a piston that can do something in a similar fashion to an AK

[@aidanlimhuadenghshs]

[@anatali121]

This was my favorite blaster as a kid, traded a bunch of plastic lightsabers for one! Something that you might know already, but could be useful if you don't, is that this one came with special high density foam darts with solid plastic inserts as reinforcement. Your final 3d printed dart design is not far off how the original darts worked! If you wanna look into it more, they were called "Buzz Bee Extreme Darts" and the stock blaster can do 3-6" groupings at 50-60 feet with them!

[@mattie_y]

[@inkycat191]

you could’ve gave it a even longer barrel my man, that would’ve made the muzzle velocity higher

[@bryonzajicek2419]

What if for the 3d printed darts you increase the barrel length or increase the amount of compressed air that it could hold cause I think that it might increase the accuracy

[@DBZLEGENDS]

To fix this problem you need a 1 inch long piece of 3/8 pex in a brass barrel and thats it. Ive tested this with this gun and its about 215 fps. 3/8 pex is also perfect for a anti suction spacer for most applications.

[@plumbinggamer]

The pain of hearing the noise of a nerf blaster in a washing machine. Nice modifying!

[@teresashinkansen9402]

I think you could glue a reinforced tube inside the dart so its what takes all the pressure and not the soft foam body, also adds a bit of mass to make it go further.

[@Shinoo_B]

[@floppydisk4500]

If you put a little bit of rolled up packing tape on the inside of the barrel of the foam dart, it'll prevent it from exploding

[@shinig4mi0mega97]

I remember seen thebackyardScientist have the same issue with the broken darts, and they put earplugs so the air woudnt go inside them and blow them.

[@kennethpaschall6811]

Making a dart in the general shape as a mortar will most likely give you much more accurate shots also what model of Nerf gun is that so I can find where to get one

[@Jvalde2021]

Now you have an effective defense against haters

[@matildastanford7019]

Superglue darts to harden them up also maybe add & glue a thumbtack to front of dart to increase dart weight. More mass equals more inertia.

[@jannickliche7080]

This is just wholesome!

[@mattie_y]

aw thanks!

[@kozike7488]

You can make the darts stronger by wrapping them in a layer or 2 of packing tape and trimming off the excess, you might need a wider inner diameter on your barrel though

[@rostringstudios4095]

Could you design some Rifling into the 3D printed nerf? Something to induce spin

I had a LOT of success with an Airtech 3000 and using brass barrels, plugged pump and removed air restrictor. 6 shots, auto rotate, a WALLOP of power. I also used Frost king foam to make my own darts, so they couldn't explode. Old ones would still have their heads ripped off, but yeah. Would love to see you tackle that blaster

[@musikSkool]

Holes near the end of the pipe will let air out without the dart taking the pressure all at once. Though it is possible it is destroying the dart in the middle of the barrel.

[@dogdog357]

The idea of needing a muzzle break in nerf is scary. Wonder if a suppressor would work.

[@chilledburrito]

@@dogdog357haha, I don’t know about a suppressor. Though, in the modded nerf/custom nerf scene there are barrel attachments that add rifling for increased accuracy in springers.

[@dogdog357]

​@chilledburrito Well I know scars are a thing. But I'm curious if adding a suppressor would 1. Help reduce the amount of air escaping the barrel through the dart and 2. Make the blaster quieter due to less air escaping as fast

[@chilledburrito]

@@dogdog357 1: It’s possible, I’d imagine it’s dependent on various factors that I don’t fully understand as I only really dabble in nerf, at least the physics part. but if the goal is to stop the dart from splitting, I’d check the barrel for extrusions first, and if there’s no problem there, I’d try a dart with less friction or firmer foam, if none of those work, putting some tape around the dart should stop the splitting, and the 3D printed projectile Matt made is an interesting way of fixing the problem LOL 2: maybe, I’m definitely not an expert on this specifically. I know for certain in a standard springer setup, the sound produced by the air is usually undermined by the plunger, and theres no point trying to put a suppressor on a fly wheeler. But since the setup Matt made, consisting of pretty much a valve and an air tank, it, itself should produce very little noise as you’d expect, and there are suppressors in Airsoft that can dampen the noise of the air exiting the barrel using a design very similar to an actual suppressor. It would probably only dampen it a tiny bit, it definitely wouldn’t be as drastic of a change as a real suppressor. You’d probably get better information from chatGPT than me to be honest LOL

[@Cavemancat88]

Make a scar barrel or even a slotted scar barrel, this allows the excess air to escape, fishing line scar barrel. I tride a tank mod with one of these years ago, it worked, but over powered and split darts, fluted scar fixed that.

[@GerinoMorn]

You need gas port like on gas-operated firearm. Just drill some holes into the barrel about 1-1.5 lengths of the dart before exit - the gas will dissipate and the barrel will still be squeezing the dart to keep it intact :D

[@BasementStudi0s]

maybe this is why my friend was allowed to bring his nerf gun through airport security but not back

[@shipe1627]

drill holes like 2 cm before the barrel ends so the pressure exits through them
