[@tr335_]

Thanks

[@colternewkirk6163]

thank you so much

[@woodrowwillson]

thx

[@BillyBob-oc8kb]

I was going to say that

[@plsdontbanus5250]

thx

[@MrMeatballYT]

This Nerf gun is Obviously modeled and Interpreted into Nerf style after the Barett 50. Cal Sniper, on both the size of the rounds and Gun, and also the Range of the gun. The inconsistency isn't helping, though.

[@ep9456]

I even has a juggernaut round so that definently makes sense

[@tangerinepaint3643]

There are more, An assault rifle: Nerf elite Rapidstrike, a revolver: the Zombiestrike hammershot, a Lever action: the Slingfire, and many more

[@callmedragon2753]

The priming sound is so satisfying

[@OutOfIdeas9977]

Agreed

[@Angel-em7ig]

I remember watching this video every day, then I got a job 🤑

[@deadfoxyt10]

pure evil it was the best

[@aradhyasingh7399]

those were slightly angled shots ... so if you fire flat you will get somewhere near 50-60 ft range

[@wjrainbow9797]

Centurion going over 90 feet????? I DONT KNOW WHATS REAL ANYMORE

[@creaturedanaaaaa]

however, it jams so much (as in every 2 shots as fast as u can) and shreks its ammo

[@TheTriforceCrusader]

+Feline Assailant ^ this. It's really unfortunate, but it's true.

[@AwkwardHypernerd413]

I would never buy this, but if I was forced to use this in a nerf war, I would just load in every bullet one at a time, because screw using the clip, also I would use it for a giant club because screw shooting the thing, I would have better luck hitting people with it rather than shooting them.

[@wjrainbow9797]

+bringoutthelegos The range IS better in melee form

[@dedkuky280ftwftw9]

the centurion only shoots max. 40 feet but its completely inaccurate

[@Nytrusdeathcyde]

the mega darts arent realy that new they had them long ago i forget when tho update: im not sure if anyone knows this seeing allthe negativity of this blaster but nerf HAS fixed the deart tearing and jaming issue that was with this blaster. if urs i sthe 1.0 or stock version i sughest calling the number o n the instructions. and just tell them whatever u need to tell them and they will send you a new one that wont jam and shred the darts. im just trying to let more ppl know. i love this blaster now that these issues were fixed.

[@calebkurtz7566]

Was this issue fixed on the sonic ice variant? I'm considering getting one, but if it jams I will just get a standard but newer one.

[@NateNah]

With the dart inside the dart it doesn't jam at all it really makes it more accerate and it jams less

[@nolofinwefingolfin1307]

it becomes heavier from gravity, makes it go down faster.

[@albert9271]

i do that

[@albert9271]

also true@@nolofinwefingolfin1307

[@alecmontgomery4003]

Ñolofinwë Fingolfin It could slow it down, but weight does not make something fall faster. Gravity works at -9.81 meters per second no matter how heavy something is.

[@Zonteax]

Alec Montgomery of course weight makes a difference because force of gravity is mass times gravity

[@OutOfIdeas9977]

Anyone noticed the fact that this video was released before the blaster in this video was released?

[@tommyw.9424]

Thanks for the review. Looks like I'm sticking with the retaliator. Common ammo+easier to carry+consistent range and accuracy+higher ROF+bigger magazines== a far better nerf gun

[@LordAereaus]

I was able to make it shoot 106ft by aiming the gun upwards so aim up to get the high distances

[@Yobyman]

It is realistic for a sniper to have to account for bullet drop and drag, so it makes sense that it would go further when aiming up

[@doublea125]

And that my friends is Howard Wallowitz's review of the Nerf Centurion.

[@iCANhazRECON1]

The two-stage sound it makes when it's fired (aka the Cha-chunk sound) always makes me smile. Definitely buying this

[@Randomshadow09]

While the video ended up longer than I wanted already, I can tell you that the blaster got much more use than just what you see in the video, and the results were pretty typical. A couple great long shots, but mostly underwhelming short shots, and the short shots got more frequent and even shorter as the darts got more use. In hindsight, it is very telling that this is the first Nerf blaster where Hasbro put an estimated range spread on the back of the box.

[@Randomshadow09]

Now now, Michael. No need to get like that just because no one watches your airsoft reviews. You're better than this. You just keep doing you, and I'm sure something will work out for you. Have a good one!

[@dokkae-bae4386]

I loss the bipod, I've been grieving it for years. Also none of my friends know how to use this so I don’t let them try. Broke a bunch of my darts

[@Randomshadow09]

The Centurion's MEGA darts are wider than the old style mega darts, so they are not compatible unfortunately.

[@rajendraprasadshrivastava3073]

You know centourion can be compatible with accustrike mega darts

[@EliPreach7]

Skip to 7:41 for range test

[@RorysRCbashing]

Thank you You are a saint

[@EliPreach7]

CreeperPro 326 yoooo this was 4 years ago crazy

[@GetTooasted]

I know all the reviews that says its garbage, but I am getting this because its massive

[@lilialia2032]

Cant i buy in 2015 in elevania

[@Randomshadow09]

Nope, this barrel is not the same as other N-Strike/Elite blasters. It's not really an extension per say, because it's designed to be a required part of the blaster. This barrel will not attach to other blasters, and the extensions from other blasters will not fit on the Centurion.

[@_ghost.house_3008]

dude i just got one of these like an hour ago and it is MASIVE!

[@thatcodfan7572]

Would you recommend I get one

[@Kurtfruelda11]

@@thatcodfan7572 yes just use mega accustrike darts and if you get a new one you should not put on the barrel extension because it affects your range and dont use it too as it jamms alot

[@Randomshadow09]

Usually it's not a good idea, but in the case of most stock Nerf blasters these days they've done a good job designing enough buffering into the system so dry-firing won't really damage anything.

[@explosivemushrooms730]

Imagine adding Zeus flywheels to this thing... Like 5 on each side... Zeus flywheel + Mega Centurion = SNIPING CARNAGE

[@xaza5625]

it would still be loud, but it would be vary overpowered :P

[@Randomshadow09]

I got mine from Target. It should be popping up in most stores within the next couple weeks. Fastest way to get it is probably site to store shipping from Walmart's website, because that's how people are getting RapidStrikes right now.

[@BraydenGamingNStuff]

Why did i type that...

[@Randomshadow09]

Personally, no. It's a bunch of fun, but the price is nuts for how little ammo you get. After a full afternoon of getting rounds run through it, all of the darts were damaged to the point where all they would do was jam the blaster. Nothing got mishandled or stepped on, just normal use wore them down to the point where they were useless. More darts are about $7 per 10 darts, and that's more nuts than the $50 blaster. Maybe later with cheaper ammo, but I wouldn't early adopt this.

[@ukraineinvasionnews7792]

it doesnt jam it makes it go further

[@jebacpenis]

It doesnt

[@Randomshadow09]

Yeah I agree 100%. I hate making long videos, but being the first MEGA blaster there was a bunch of extra crap to talk about.

[@sylvialukowiak6738]

The air vents on the mega darts make it whistle at least in the rotogury

[@aidanvega9778]

p.s. nice job putting in lots of information!

[@ElNeroDiablo]

I got an Aussie version (detuned for 20 metre, grey trigger), and I do get somewhere between 15 and 20 metres reliably when firing shoulder-height (I'm ~5' 9") it in my backyard, as it goes from the back porch to either just on the rotary clothes line, or sometimes even to the divider posts which are about halfway (a bit over 20m if memory serves) up the block from the back of the house.

[@Randomshadow09]

It's "RandomShadow09" just like KZbin.

[@dannycheek8118]

I am probably wrong but air pressure and humidity pay a role in accuracy and distance as well as many other small factors.

[@TheGuyzShowpohomh]

Check out the guyz show for more nerf distance tests!

[@TheGuyzShowpohomh]

Why?

[@nameisscorpion]

David Wang I guess you have a problem with advertising because YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO ADVERTISE!

[@grandpaschmeckle2524]

I checked out your channel, nice job, thanks for the info! what's with the dumbass who said not to advertise? I don't understand people who say that! do they wish they lived in caves away from human society? are they not a part of the human race? do they not understand advertising allows us to find new things that we may be interested in? or do they just say that because they're dumb?

[@nameisscorpion]

Grandpa Schmeckle Right on Gramps! you tell em! I think it's because he's a dumbass! click on his name, he has nothing to offer!

[@nameisscorpion]

David Wang What a baby!

[@joni2622]

You didn't angle the blaster and nerf/hasbro does that so your range test isn't complete

[@teosaksida6543]

its like a fucking 50 cal

[@teosaksida6543]

Actually i meant it shoots bigass darts. Like m82a1 shoot bigass bullets

[@teosaksida6543]

damn you are smart

[@Maverick9k]

Scorpio Coltman I held a real 50 call bullet before and a mega dart there actually almost the same size...not trying to be a downer

[@gabrielgermani8444]

nerfsharpshooter32 yeah but the .50 cal holds both , the powder and the part used to penetrate the target but here it is all foam , and we love it :)

[@fangpyer]

It is too terrible to be a 50 cal sure it has a long range but it has terrible accuracy.

[@DartblasterDe]

I am kind of dissapointed about the lack of accuracy. I had hoped, those Mega Darts would fly like Whistlers... Do you think after removing the dart peg inside the tube, you could do the trick with sticking another dart inside the Mega to increase accuracy? Stylewise it's awesome, however.

[@tr335_]

Get to the point

[@dbowen8887]

If you didn't know anyone can go to any point in a KZbin video

[@DominusZeikyu]

The very first red nerf blaster in history :D

[@BraydenGamingNStuff]

I'm Thirsty...

[@BraydenGamingNStuff]

Heck no. Iced tea it is.

[@mangobot232]

When I modded this I made the bolt more stable and it improved it a lot with the constancy

[@zef6749]

Lol... 31 feet for a mega nerf gun... even my english grey trigger can do better than that.

[@budderfreak204]

mine goes 103 ft no mods

[@ultimatemastergamer8760]

TheMysticBannana Mine has even gone 150 feet once, no wind, firing at an angle of 20 degrees up. There must have been a problem with this one or a lot of headwind.

[@creaturedanaaaaa]

no matter what 50$ is too much for how often this jams

[@Wolvie287]

Even though you said there was no wind , that's not the only thing wrong with this shooting range test just like a real gun there's many factors to consider wind , temperature , humidity , and how thin the air is where you're located at but I know I'm missing some other factors but thats majority of them.

[@Liltskater23]

Nerf guns are so terrible😂😂😂😂

[@jackjesterhateaccount9768]

Just like your IQ. 😂😂😂😂

[@isuckatthis8929]

CraftBit ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@kazemiharada6197]

OOOOOOOOOOOH DAYYYYUMMMM

[@jackjesterhateaccount9768]

honestly, how did I get so many likes for that it was a really bad burn

[@tatootalker332]

What and the cheap ones at the dollar shop are good? 😒

[@Wolvie287]

Also when they advertise their Nerf guns they measure them indoors not out so no weather elements can interfere with the guns.

[@CMW648]

This thing is trash airsoft 4 life

[@thehauntedkids]

Why the mother fucking sake are you watching a nerf videos then

[@monsterj.f.agenders8230]

it is good if your in Australia and airsoft is banned!

[@slendermanpabon489]

Then why are you watching nerf stupid

[@nathanbearden165]

Air soft is gay. Get a real firearm, kid...

[@CloudMcFoxx]

Nathan Bearden The whole point of airsoft is to be able to experience as much realism as possible without going to the military and without going to jail for shooting other people, kid...

[@enj_edu]

I think MEGA series are 50.cal series because Centurion looks like Barett 50. Cal and new Magnus looks like 50. Cal Deagle

[@SoccerProductions101]

I wish they would make like, an elite Longshot or Longstrike with the 75 or more foot ranges of the other Elite guns

[@racer927]

Thanks for telling me of the "cha-chunk" noise this thing will make. I plan on getting this soon and I would have thought I broke something or the blaster was doing something that it wasn't supposed to.

[@algorithm1193]

I think I'll try to get my hands on a long shot cs-12 but if I can I'll get the cs-6 because it's more practical, customizable, and cam be made shorter by removing the spare front gun or bipod or the mag in the stock

[@TheDalisama]

You should have done the test using the bipod or at least resting the gun on a chair (without the barrel). I think it's possible that the extra weight on the barrel caused you to aim a little lower, thus causing the drastic distance drop.

[@shooter23231]

actually i got the barrel off with a flat head screw driver and you could still put it bak on no problem so you don't have to open the blaster

[@GowEnterprise]

There have been many red recolorations (stock) of previous nerf guns. The original Magstrike was also mainly red.

[@ianfreeman2807]

When I get one, I'll try putting BBs into the rubber tips of the Mega darts. That should hopefully make them a bit more stable.

[@TheTriforceCrusader]

I bought a Magnus and had the same problem with the consistency. It also had nearly HALF the ranges that it claims to have. MEGA is not very impressive so far. Hopefully the Thunderbow will prove to be better. The Magnus really bummed me out, and now I think I might just buy me another LS and give it a better spring instead of waisting money on this one.

[@DarkWolf00100]

i really liked the look of the element scope just the way it looks but instead of having the damn green tint make it add some extra zoom.

[@whisky_tango_fox503]

Those gun is based on the barrett CAL. 50

[@Randomshadow09]

Nope, just the MEGA magazines and darts. However, I'm sure someone will figure out modding it to shoot the smaller caliber darts.

[@TrololTroll]

The reason that the shots didn't go very far is because the tip is very heavy, and if you look closely you can see the shots go down just after leaving the barrel. Maybe some extra added weight on the back of the darts can keep it going straight and not going down and maybe go much further.

[@jonashediger182]

When you walk then the camera is really wabely (dont know how to spell) pleas fix that!

[@snail9604]

By the way, the MEGA darts aren't new, they actually were used in older NERF blasters, but they kinda died out until the Centurion came out.

[@SouthernBrisbaneNerf]

I only want to know, where and how?

[@camcordingkrazyvideo6355]

Is this actually the longest shot nerf gun or is it just the advertisments?

[@scarletlightning565]

If the regular darts are equivalent to 7.56x51mm or .338 Lapua Magnum, then the mega darts are .50 BMG or 12.7x108mm.

[@RockStarPiggy]

The back of the box says that the range depends on the bullets, not the gun. Maybe you should try lots of bullet like 18 instead of 6. Also, when I shoot mine in my 80 feet basement, it always hits the wall. So, otherwise it was a great video

[@moninha2105]

have you tried aiming the gun a little up, so it can go higher and further

[@Kshordywitda40]

the barrell actually comes off with a little force i have one ante without the barrel it goes longer and faster

[@felcon0razorhawk82]

yeah so what im hearing is that if i do wish to get on of these nerf maga i should wait till a model revise

[@jschlattfunnymic3069]

actually they made the ca, chunk sound to make it have a sort of recoil

[@commanderhindsight1633]

that's most likely because of the whistle tip creating an uneven drag when it flies through the air

[@petem613]

Elite fits inside the mega; but don’t fire it this way.... so what’s your point again?

[@aidanvega9778]

just a hint for anyone who might still want the gun, always fire with the blaster at an up angle. It may not sound like a big diff but it makes the dart a lot farther!

[@Hunter12396]

I think the accuracy problem comes from the dart being whistlers but I want to see it fired at an angle

[@mikejonas8608]

How so? It claims ranges of up to 100 feet (presumably shot at an angle, which is how Nerf claims its maximum ranges), and this proves it hits 90 feet when *flat*. Sound like it delivers as advertised.

[@thesheit9491]

Dude, I don't want to sound patronizing, but you have done a fantastic job of critiquing this blaster. Nice one!

[@abrahamrosas8513]

You have to shoot the Nerf gun while in a prone position to get the maximum velocity. Firing the weapon standing up will increase bullet drop.

[@dfa_skorpion6942]

I don’t think this test is accurate because the wind might’ve been blowing a little bit and just the atmosphere of outside vs inside makes a huge difference

[@aquila3958]

Is it improving the range when you seal the holes in the plunger tube with hot glue?

[@yvngfist]

yes use tape or apoxy

[@bibieibrahim3034]

Akaks

[@rhenan6421]

Does this gun sell a lot in the US?? it's just that I'm from Brazil and there's not much of this weapon

[@Commandrew99]

I watched all of his vids and made this analysis: If you want a dart once in a while that will get astounding rages, get the Centurion. If you want a pretty good average range, get the Revonix360. If you want your gun to have a good absolute range it will always achieve, get the Lumitron. If you don't care about the ranges as long as the shots are close together, get the Vigilon. If you don't mind a 60 ft. spread from darts as long as the ranges are good, get the Centurion.

[@MrGunmaster43]

the all over the place shots was because the front barrel wasnt on it happens with the longshot and long strike

[@lifeofjab9583]

So what is the most consistent and best long range blaster dart combination??

[@kirbiscuoustyler1152]

Where do you get all those awesome nerf guns from? Because i only see the regular guns at toys r us and walmart.

[@RexCT7567]

Great vid as always RS!!! but It appears to me that the air 'catches' the dart's holes and brings the dart to the side or down. If this is the case would you or anyone recommend covering up the holes...?

[@SneakyVonPotatoPotatoes]

i lost one mega dart from fire it in my neighborhood :(

[@Legolvr1121]

How the heck do you get multiple Centurions?!?!

[@am37_SR]

It's coming out on my birthday, August 1, I'm getting that beast.

[@BlazeJedi]

Me and my friend were using this gun in my dorm's Assassin Games, If you fire it with minimum to no movement, it hits 100ft very easy. The issue (which is probably in the comments) is that when you fire it,the dart isn't straight and hits the extended barrel >.

[@chrisnzella]

Someone needs to mow the clover and the grass too. :) Great blaster demo.

[@maryhartwell1253]

you can take the barrel off. but you need a screw driver to pop it off

[@DetectiveDeuche]

yeah you should definitely aim it at an angle or resting on something

[@littlecrab199]

when i got the gun it said 75 feet straight and 100 feet angled

[@Xyridin]

So Random, what do you think of the Centurion? Most of the videos I have seen, the darts have some extreme air drag which causes the darts to go nuts in flight. Do you think it's worth the $50 price tag as-is?

[@shaguftaabbasi3668]

did you customize the blaster mega centourion

[@zenvost2]

why make the darts so friggin big? all that does is shorten the range of the blaster (i hardly think the "bigger the size, the better chance of hitting opponents")

[@ForsakenSinner]

Though some of the shots were short, I would not base my final results on one firing test. I would rather see quite a few tests and then see the averages of those.

[@Bannanawaffles2]

Knowing Nerf, is there not a post that gets pushed up into the center of the dart once its loaded? I haven't actually seen the internals of the Centurion yet, but I would assume that to be the case and the reason for it jamming with a elite dart jammed in there.

[@HoisonHead]

I have been waiting for this

[@project1029]

Does the Centurion eat darts like the longshot does? My longshot keeps ripping the streamline darts, and I'm debating getting a centurion, but am unsure if it would be worth while.

[@yvngfist]

it used to, now they fixed it, if it does then call the phone number on the instructions and theyll send you a new one that doesnt jam or rip darts for free.

[@project1029]

Oh ok, awesome to know that, thanks :)

[@fangpyer]

same thing is happening to my long strike. Every time I shoot it 4/5 times it jams. It's user garbage, just like the centurion.

[@soggysocx4022]

i bet ur camera's mic needs some serious repairing cuz i can't hear a thing
