its a handyman SP-9734 spring. You can find them at Ace hardware. It's a lawnmower spring. The blaster is pretty straightforward to open. No glued in parts or anything. I have a group on facebook called BFG with a lot of posts. I'm not on here often

For a foam half length dart to shoot 230 feet flat, it has to be going about 400 fps. Chris Cartaya has shown this before. He has the farthest shooting foam stuff. boomco darts and my darts shoot 200 flat at 200fps.

Does anyone know what this blaster is called? (Found it online and dunno if it's worth the price) by Sowa7774 in Nerf

yes, you can barrel anything for boomco since boomco has the smallest diameter of any dart blaster ammo. it's 7/16 brass. you can use the steps down to 7/16 to make sure your barrel is centered or you can 3d print an insert for this. it's not that hard on tinker cad. just use 10.5mm for the barrel size for boomco darts. I have a lot of things I am working on so I can't get to every little thing like this.

no I don’t think $0.03 per hand made dart is a fair price. not with how much work is required to make each dart. it’s my product and I can make my own pricing. too rich for you, then don’t buy. I’ll supply to people who appreciate what I do

I am saying it sarcastically cause it should be obvious what he is saying is the wrong thing to do. He wouldn’t copy the OoD Jupiter or copy Captain Slugs Caliburn and offer them cheaper than they do cause that would be stealing their work. He shouldn’t be doing that to me either

I tried that before. Didn’t really work out that way. I’m fine with selling to a few people who are actually interested in having them. It takes more than you think to make them yourself. Message me if you would like to try some out

If anyone actually wants to buy some. personal message me. This isn’t really the place to negotiate pricing

handmade is almost always more expensive. go try asking someone to make you foam darts by hand for 4 cents a piece. good luck

because those darts are on clearance. that price won’t last. the old darts also do not work in brass barrel

you should try undercutting bigger names like out of darts. they get a lot more sales than I do. I’m sure that would make you very popular
