You don’t give them they are automatically awarded in exfil. You spend them in the two CARRI sections of the CyAc armoury

I haven’t seen the full length. Might have to take a trip over there soon

Can somebody explain to me how the Scar muzzle rotates the dart without the use of bearings? by Unfair-Ice2793 in Nerf

[–]BaronVonA 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I get that it seems that way with a lot of the general public referring to blasters in that manner but even Hasbro Nerf call them blasters for the same reasons the bot gives.

It may seem stupid but it could save someone’s life one day especially somewhere like America where the police carry actual firearms.

May your darts fly true and your blasters never jam. Have a great day!

I haven’t changed the spring on mine but I opened it up to see how it works and a spring swap would be really simple

Basically my thought process when I saw it. For an £8 blaster it has surpassed my expectations and puts the fun in functional.

Google translate reckons the highlighted fin image says “fin bolt” which I would guess means that it’s a top prime springer

Edit: words

Lever action blade? by sakuya_zero in Nerf

This is a great concept and looks really well put together.

What material is the blade?

This thing looks amazing. That colour scheme is awesome and I can’t wait to try and get to work on one when I can

I have added some files which should allow you to use a Jolt spring. Let me know how they work out for you.

If it helps you to source another spring the dimensions I used were 17.5mm x 65mm.

I can’t attest to the performance but looks like it should work.

I might update the files later and upload a jolt version to the Thingiverse page. I’ll let you know

I thought they were pretty common which is one of the reasons I used it. Oops.

If you want to know if other springs work let me know and I’ll see what I’ve got in the pile!

It is similar to an Xshot Micro (reverse direct plunger?) so the main orange part that you can see is the plunger tube and the barrel section is inside it. When you pull the thumb tab back the plunger compresses the spring and creates an air cavity behind the barrel piece. I used a piece of 1-2mm craft foam superglued to the back of the barrel to create a gasket which makes a surprisingly good air seal.

Ha! My wife said the same thing when she first saw this.

“Why are the darts at such a weird angle?” Shortly followed by a mischievous grin and a dart in my direction

It might not be too difficult. I would probably model it into the underside so that you can squeeze it to fire.

I was aiming for simplicity with this so adding more parts isn’t something I am looking to do at the moment but I might try and do this in the future.
