The $700 NERF Sniper... Is it even worth it?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 авг 2024
- Whenever there's a budget option, there's a premium option; and the Sabre M20 is one of the most premium options there is out there. The Construct M20 features a completely obscene overbuilt chassis composed of molded Delrin, Aluminum, and Steel that is pretty much indestructible. With linear bearing rails and a hefty weight, it's a buttery smooth prime that can punch upwards of 280 FPS with the stock configuration, and it has a lot of room to grow. Is it worth it? Probably not, but it does exist and somebody will want it.

The most insane thing about the Sabre M20 is that Sabre has made an automatic kit that uses a wheelchair battery to electro-mechanically prime and load the blaster.
It's *hella* expensive but it's such an interesting thing
Sounds very fun and very goofy but also very expensive
I couldn't find it on their website, I mentioned it in this video: so when it disappeared I cut that part out.
@@WalcomS7 yeah IIRC I'm pretty sure that auto kit is a rare thing to have nowadays, I'm only aware of it because I have a friend who has it.
Still, it's such a fascinating mechanism because it's somewhere in-between being a springer and an AEG
@@cas9564 A new and improved auto kit is in development.
Bradley Phillips uses one
That intro... that is insane. Sad it costs 700 dollars, if it costed less I would buy it. Nice video Walcom keep it up!
if it costed less it wouldnt be of that quality XD
@@speurtighearnamacterik8230 you're comparing apples and oranges.
*My sks (soviet one, not chinese) cost me around 180$ back in the days
@@speurtighearnamacterik8230 You'll be surprised but most of the world is not America.
Welp. . . This is hundreds of dollars outside my budget. 😂
700 to be exact
Don't buy anything for a while, save up. The Sabre M20 series is something that once you have it, you will never need another one. In ten years, you will go to pick it up and it will fire just as it did when it was new. It won't snap in half because the 3d printing has gone bad, it won't snap the plunger rod because the plastic has degraded. It will just work. It's a high price to pay, but you only pay it once.
@@MrLilredmachine 👍
Me too, the most expensive blaster I ever paid for was the Prometheus, and I didn't even pay the original debut price, and that's practically a minigun with an insane rate of fire and an a capacity of around 250 rounds. I do admit to buying two, but neither was full price. A $700 nerf gun sounds like someone who either has their own nerf themed youtube channel and has a steady stream of income from that or someone who's rich. There's no way I would even think of paying that much for a nerf gun, that's basicly 80 percent of the cost of the pc I'm posting this comment on. If I were to even consider buying something that shoots foam that costs more than 3 figures it would have to be something even more amazing and over powered than the Prometheus. Something like a Vulcan chain gun but with an fps of at least 120, with a fire rate of at least 3 rounds a second and an ammo capacity of no less than a 200 rounds. Or maybe a giant nerf auto cannon complete with a quad pod firing the old school nerf balls or tennis size foam balls but at Rival standard speeds or greater and a huge magazine reserve. Now that I might actually think about getting. Or maybe a massive cannon with artillery shells filled with 20 or 30 rival balls that just sprays foam everywhere and can hit targets more than a hundred feet away. Or a quad auto cannon, like the old WW2 anti aircraft batteries, that shoots foam darts or rival rounds at high speeds with a high rate of fire and four massive hoppers to feed all four guns simultaneously with the who cannon mounted on a large quad pod. For me to spend that kind of money It would have to be like a piece of artillery, a giant weapon of mass foam destruction not just another high FPS springer. And if I were a rich eccentric who enjoys spending ridiculous amounts of money on frivolous things like the blaster in this video I would just hire an industrial engineer instead and have them design and build one of those conceptual heavy artillery blasters I just described. I mean if I can afford a $700 blaster, I can probably just pay someone to build me a weapon worthy of Mordor!
@@shadowreaver1851First of all, that was probably the longest comment I've ever seen, let alone reading it. 😂
Second, I agree with what you're saying. $700 into Nerf should set you up for a long time in my book. As far as your ideas, I can't wait to see what the Nerf hobby looks like the next 5 to 10 years. Maybe we'll have something like what you're saying. Right now we're still waiting for Hasbro to make their own half-dart blasters. Lol
I just realized that this channel was under 200,000 subscribers. With the popularity of nerf, community, and the great videos you put out, people need to subscribe.
I'm casual at best and I subscribed long ago. By far the most entertaining RUclips nerfer out there.
I also heard you mention modern rogue, I immediately went over to there and came back to finish this vid.
I will only subscribe if he likes this comment.
Agreed.
Let’s go! Love my M20. So much more comfortable than it looks. Sabre’s discord is great if you want to dive deeper before buying one
Ya got a link for that?

This seems like an amazing blaster and I feel like I might end up picking one up
I'm no material expert, but I work in a CNC shop. We make progressive die-shoes that stamp sheet metal. In the few years I've been here, we have had some Delrin in the shop as an option to cut costs on certain parts. It baffled me that there was a plastic tough enough and wear resistant enough to be used in such a way. I'm pretty sure that is injection molded and it looks thick.
It's incredibly thick, and from what I was told is that Delrin is one of the most expensive plastics for that reason. Obviously not that bad, Sabre sells the blaster shell separately for 100 bucks or so.
@@WalcomS7 Delrin is immensely difficult to mold.
The shell on the M20/M20S is a brick, but the quality of the Delrin moulding is unbelievable. There are a couple of other Delrin moulded blasters about and the shells are awful looking up close.
Match this with the auto kit, its fking OP. Trust me, i played against that squad full of auto kit, dont even dream of advancing, its hitting 300fps continously and consistently and accurate. When i told people we got defeated at our own base, they didnt believe the Raining darts.
Many thanks walcom for doing this video.
I like that this comment has almost no recognition in the comments section.
This is the guy that builds them people! 😂
Thank you for making this! Bought a Caliburn from FF 3D printed. It broke in 1 week. Bought this the very next day. I've had it for yeeeeeears. Serial 124. It is the only high powered blaster I own other than the broken Caliburn. Probably saved me money.
It's still one of the best blasters there is and it's old now.
Seems like it’s a good quality blaster for high fps games. The price tag is a bit hefty, but you pay for quality and that’s what you seem to get
Well that price tag is only worth It if you live in sg, since It does come with lifetime support iirc
Would be great to see some more reviews like this :)
I'm testing a LOT of things in this month of TagBaxMas and seeing what works and what doesn't, it's going to definitely influence my videos going forward.

@@spizun idk if your mocking me lol.....
Man and I thought dropping a total of $400 on my Lynx was overkill!
Granted that price will continue to rise as I buy a metal plunger tube and any more CNC parts that release for it 🤣
Nice, I love your Lynx too. I thought about getting some metal parts eventually. My Lynx gets a ton of use and is still going strong.
@@m00k61 Thanks, glad to hear from you! I was lucky enough to get a Roboman metal catch the first time around, been able to hold up to so many spring loads!
Does a metal tube increase performance or just durability?
@@OwnageNoobify Not sure of performance but definitely durability. My Lynx has a 100% airseal so if a dart were to jam the air pressure could shatter the current polycarbonate plunger tube alongside the turnaround piece.
Great blaster and great support from Sabre and very active discord community. If you have the money to burn I can recommend getting one. It is still cheaper than the full metal versions they have available occasionally.
When he said "and this time!" I had a huge smile on my face!
Great blaster Walcom awesome review
Congrats on 200k!!!
Not yet
After hearing that fishing line barrel Idea I am having some ideas on how I'd might recreate that
you hit 200k!!!
One of the main selling points on this thing for me was the solid, almost muffled sound it made shooting at such a high fps.. more like a "thwoop" than the jarring springy clash every other high fps blaster makes. Luckily i dampened my Swift with enough hot glue and blocks of dense foam inside it's plastic shell so it feels heavy/solid/ and sounds just like this thing. $500+ saved right there. Just wish there was a. Bearing prime guide for the swift as well
The Sabre M20 looks like the Bozar from Fallout New Vegas
I really appreciate the work put into all this content! You're amazing, keep it up 😁 can't wait for more!
Looks like the Bozar from Fallout New Vegas
the price gave me a heart attack , also very cool!
Over $700, and yet you need to procure a pistol grip and priming grip yourself? Sure, it's interesting, but I doubt I'd spend that much for a blaster that I need to spend more money on to actually finish. It's durability is great, sure, but it's personally not for me.
The grip is not included for legal reasons as Sabre is located in Singapore and many of their customers are located in Australia and other countries who's customs are very restrictive of toy guns and things that look like gun parts.
Tag back is BACK bros
Yeah i know I am five days late
It looks like a thinner Bozar from fallout 2
This is about, uhh, 700 dollars over my budget
"boom, headtag."
[Meat the foam sniper]
It sure is a beaut.! I could divulge the money I've personally spent on research and development for my Longshot alone...
I get same feelings whether I'm target practicing with Nerf darts, a pellet blaster, or the real McCoy.
The video already has 1500 likes so I’m excited to see what blaster Wacom is talking about for the next video. Your footage of the firing, the grouping was tight but why so off target? I also like that it’s called Sabre like from the show “the office”, that alone is almost worth $700 to me.
Because the scope was not adjusted for the blaster. I was using it just for the consistent dot.
No. But congrats on the almost 200K. SO CLOSE!!!
I think it depends what any particular Nerfer wants. Do they want each new, novel blaster that comes out, in which case they could easily spend over $700 in say, a year. Or do they want a blaster that does everything they want, in which case it's a one time buy, then they concentrate on game play.
My Worker Swift will do fine. 😎
Woo! Hype train!!
Sabre sale was on recently, 25% off. Conrad has said the m20c is discontinued so there is no longer a cheaper version which is a bit of shame.
Makes sense, it wasn't really worth it. I don't know what their bottleneck is, but the prices don't feel like they should be as high as they are.
@@WalcomS7 yeah good point you could cut the price down by a lot
@@WalcomS7 its because the blaster is quite durable, go watch their blaster strength test, its quite unbreakable.
@@WalcomS7 it has parts in it that are extremely costly to make and package. It's a simple, pure blaster, but it's full of billet aluminium and stainless steel. The M20X that I have has a billet stainless steel pusher assembly, which is mental, but you can dry fire it till the cows come home with a 30kg spring in it and it doesn't even blink. You pay for durability, none of the 3D printed equivalents (that are all overpriced in my opinion) offer you the longevity or durability that a Sabre or a Swin offer.
Maybe the nerf rampage would be good for the next blaster on TagBaxMas
I’m seriously super competitive about durability… so yah, woulda been interested.
nice gun
You have to hold your Pinky up while firing like a complete Sir to truly utilize this blaster..
I would absolutely get this if the price wasn't guaranteed to make my wallet beat me to death with a centurion barrel
The M20 is kind of like a Dodge Demon. Sure, it’ll do its job very, VERY well, but for the price, you could build something that can match it or exceed it fine.
That thing will not be running with barely any maintenance in ten years though, exactly like the Demon compared to the thing you build.
Dig that accuracy tho
What accuracy? Every shot missed the bullseye!
If I though I'd ever spend that sort of money, on a springer, I's save the cash and spend it on counselling instead. It's an amazing bit of kit, but you can get the same performance for way way less. So it's a no-brainer,
You can't though. This is a blaster that can fire at 350fps now with an 18kg spring and will still fire 350fps in ten years with nothing more than lubrication. There is no other dart blaster that will do that. They will all break and need to be repaired with regular use, especially at that power level.
Saber m-20 are interesting. Not very different just metal shelled. The Liner Rail is the only thing I find compelling.
the thing to learn here: Delrin is absolutely overkill for a blaster, unless you travel around the world, and don't want your custom blaster mangled and molested by the TSA.
I love your youtube ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Way to expensive for my taste! But custom CNC machined parts especially for that is definitely not cheap,I should know,I’ve gotten many custom parts made for my hobby so the price is reasonable cause it is certainly not cheap to make but in the end it does not justify buying it for $700
why do I have a feeling the next video he's talking about is gonna be the Milsig M79?
This price tag is ridiculous considering the harrier is only $200 with most upgrades, how much are they profiting on these things?
This is only $650 out of my budget, it does look very interesting though.
Who needs this when you can friction fit nexus pro mags in the deuce pro, and put a acog on it. im all set for any foam flinging event.
Have you done a video on the S.S. AS-1? I have one that I absolutely love, and while it does not fire standard darts, it does work with half darts at around 90fps. They came out in 2004, so it would make a good tag back if you have not already done it, and have one.
Wdym they do
i like these
1100 likes, so close
walcom what would you think of a nerf 40k line
Cooooooool
it goes TOOOFT LOL
It is awesome, but you can buy and boost more than 5 Nexus pro for the same price...... Yeah I would choose B
idk. if i am going to buy an insanely expensive blaster i will buy the terrifying spitfire products mega sniper thing even tho it’s quite a bit more expensive.
I can buy many devices for flinging many materials at that price 😂
850 now
Kind of wild it costs that much and is literally useless out of the box, you'd think they could include even some cheap grips.
I believe it's because of shipping related firearm stuff, but even then that doesn't check out for me.
@@WalcomS7 a lot of customs that the blaster has to pass through will open it up and confiscate it if it has firearm parts (IE a grip and a foregrip for example) and it's a lot of money to lose for a 10 dollar plastic part.
My M20X which is a 1600 dollar blaster had been opened up and searched through when I received it. There is a high chance that if it had had firearm related parts in there it would have been confiscated, so I can see why they don't have them in there.
Sniper!!!
I feel like a modded nexus pro modded might be able to do this.
Nope. No way. This isn't even maxed out. It's a 350fps blaster with the 18kg spring in it. I have vids on my channel of Sabre blasters hitting 450fps, they will also never break, even at that power level.
hello mr nerf man
This company is going to send a pro nerf team to come take him out for not recommending this blaster.
I might as well buy a real nice f@n pistol for that price 😂
Amazing gun but the better the gun the more it’s closer to a $1000
Day 3 of asking Walcolm to review the TASKQWIK blaster
Is there a list of the outro songs he has used?
also you open it with like 20 screws
What's the new outro?😍
DARCI called, says it wants it shit back (D2 reference)
Looks more like Borealis imo
What's the _most_ expensive non-vintage blaster available?
Hard to say. There's lower production more boutique stuff than the Sabre from the likes of Xplorer.
Pretty certain Xplorer have blasters in the 3000 dollar range. This is a cheap Sabre by the way, I have a 1600 dollar version. 😂
...I feel like this is like idk too much haha
I accepted 50 tf2 sniper reference cmon professional have standard
There are a couple of things I'd like to point out from reading the comments on this video.
1) Durability. I would love to see all these homemade/3d printed/ABS/Polycarbonate blasters that are capable of 350fps that are going to outlast this M20. This will fire at 350FPS with the 18kg spring today, and 350fps in ten years, every time you pick it up with nothing more than occasional lubrication. You can dry fire it all you want, run over it with your car, leave it in the sun, get it filthy... It honestly doesn't matter.
And before anyone mentions the swift, yes it will get near 350fps maxed out, but the shell WILL break in half at the take down points eventually. ABS has it's limits.
2) keep seeing weird arguments about a real firearm being cheaper. What does that have to do with dart blasting? I'll just kill the argument dead right here. A semi automatic high point pistol can be bought brand new for 190 bucks. That is cheaper than many, many dart blasters. Does it mean that all of them are not worth it? NO.
Real steel firearms are simpler than an Airsoft gas blow back. They are literally a trigger connected by a mechanism to a firing pin that activates a round that has It's own propellant on board. Anything that fires dead projectiles from an onboard power source at high power levels is going to be more complex and difficult to make work well than the majority of firearms. Once you start making them out of high end materials that are billet rather than cast, the price will start going through the roof!
My Sabre M20X has a *billet* stainless steel pusher assembly in it that weighs more than a Hasbro Nerf pistol by itself. There isn't a firearm in existence that requires anything like a piece of billet engineering such as that!
I have three Sabre blasters, as well as having home printed Lynx's, zinc's, bought 3d printed from professional builders, factory worker blasters and nothing comes anywhere near the Sabres, not even close during actual gameplay.
I'm just commenting cause you said to
So let me get this straight, you waited 2 yrs, did NOTHING to really maintain it, its nigh indestructible, primes very well and shoots accurately with high FPS?! Well I must say, worth the long term investment for sure!! 👍👍👍
Yeah this thing is pretty legit. I took it to an event and let countless people use it, plenty of dry fires, and it didn't care.
Fastest ive been in a looonggggg time
For 700....i'll buy something a little more lethal....i meant powerful
First foamer I've ever thought about pissing my wife off by buying 😂. Honey! Check out this long gun! She loves guns and knives, then launch a short dart. Yes Ma'am, damn near a grand to kill that white claw with them foam baddies! 😂 I might buy one just for the meme!😅😂 Edit: btw it's not steel projectiles unless is steel core armor penetraters. It would be hard cast lead or copper jacketed lead. If you and flux ever in South Central Pa, the boys and I can take ya on a range day!
I shoot my kids with foam blasters, so no, I can't have one. I shot my youngest son in the back with an Ultra 5 once and I felt horrible. Shooting him with one of these would make me a monster, even at extreme range.
I really wish I would have known about your trip to Texas ahead of time. You were 10 minutes from my house. If you need a place to crash next time, let me know.
Haha the Modern Rogue housed me, but I am going to Jared's Epic Blaster Battle Holiday Edition here on the 18th and tickets are still available.
@@WalcomS7 Thanks for the heads up! We'll try to be there!
They could’ve atleast tried to make it look decent for that price
Wow
You can get an airport rifle for the same price... you can get a REAL firearm for that same price!
A Radical Arms AR-15 16" chambered in 5.56 cost $600!
I mean, a hi-point pistol is a hundred bucks. There are nerf guns more expensive than that. It's a stupid argument.
Actual firearms are nowhere near as difficult to make as a high end nerf gun, you don't need the motive power for the round in the gun for a start! It's all done by the ammo!
I'm happy to be in tomorrow video, just hit me up when you're free
Where could I procure one of thems right there
Noice
Less expensive than some Keycult keyboards lol
Commenting to make the algorithim happy
whats up with the quality options? O-o
no, the answer is no
that is real precision bolt action money
The foam dart hobby; Where some people can justify spending $700 on something that isn't a real firearm or shell ejecting, just powerful. Nice to see Walcom admitting something's overpriced when he's usually praising stuff over $100-200 USD.
I don't think anybody is justifying the $700 price tag....Not even the video is telling you to buy it and he got it for free.
@@captsomeguy1 I'll fix my comment.
For 700.00 I would buy something real, not a toy. But I am not really one to talk because a few years ago I dumped about 500.00 into a gas blowback airsoft SVD Dragunov
I could buy a pretty decent real firearm for that price; I can’t imagine it being worth it.
Think of it as a high grade magazine fed air rifle that happens to fire foam darts and you are closer to what the M20 series is. That makes the price easier to swallow. I have an M20X which is the bigger, metal version of this and it can fire a foam dart so hard it almost breaks air rifle laws in the UK.
