REVIEW: Lepus Mk2

  • Опубликовано: 14 апр 2022
  • All the way back in 2019, a foam-flinger in the UK known as JackRabbitNerfer designed an ultra-minimalist mag-in-grip flywheeler. It made its rounds with others in the hobby, but we were just too busy to check it out.
    This is our (quite belated) review of the second iteration of the Lepus: the Mk2 XT-T variant (which stands for "exposed trigger - Talon magwell"). This thing is pretty barebones, and that's not necessarily a detractor. While its compactness comes at a cost of some usability and comfort, this blaster really shines as a secondary "room clearer" like the D-Dart Tempest
    You can find JackRabbitNerfer and the Lepus on Etsy, though he's currently not processing any orders:

    Files for the Lepus and a list of hardware needed can be found on Thingiverse (though it's rumored the Thingiverse site may not be up for much longer):

    You are getting the jams/ miss fires because the cycle control switch is missing, so when you insert the mag its jamming the pusher.
    It was designed very much as a quick spray secondary when you're entering a building or rounding a corner, paired with with high power springers or HPA, on my thingverse there is the poplock magnetic holster designed to be used with it

      Thanks for letting us know! Still, we'll try not to overload our darts next time. We even accidentally loaded a mag backwards before filming, lol.

    Bolololol.... Know Jack Rabbit personally and have his first Lepus he ever sold 😉. It's lush and the Bololol of the pusher is our (FAUK - Foam Alliance UK) war cry 😊..... He also has a delicated holster you can print out for it too. Needs a couple magnets

    I really like this blaster! It looks like great value to make, with simple hardware and pretty good performance. I wish it had a printed leaf-spring detent instead of using the magazine lips so it could use tachis though, but it wouldn’t be hard to add a thin trigger-guard to prevent mis-pressing it. Thanks for the great review! 💜💙

    I built one it was fun but hard to holster and the switches eventually failed. Ultimately I didn't repair it. Great first 3d build could use a trigger guard and because it was hard to holster it was a primary or nothing. Didn't have the reach for higher fps wars great for cqb stuff.
    I be interested in a mayfly review or build.

    I have one, they're really, really nice. And at the moment, not too many people have done videos on them. I think my video on it might be the only actual review on yt thusfar. Definitely needs more exposure, excellent little design.

    I wonder how it could work as a foregrip blaster. It shouldn't be to hard to modify the files to make it rail attached.

      The top is flat so it should be super simple to design a reverse-rail on top of it

    I think it would be cool to make an automatic high powered springer like an auto longshot. It would be a slower automatic. Probably take a wench mechanism to work the action

      Many years ago, Hasbro came out with something like that called the Stampede. More recently, I've seen news about the QWK Challenger Mk3, which is designed for short darts. Both fill an interesting niche that we don't have much of in foam flinging.

    I burned my switches out four times. Make a quick edit to the STL for a picotinny rail mount on the top of the blaster and it's pretty great, if you can keep the darn thing working...

      They sent us a new lower receiver, and it's on our shelf of blasters to test and review. We do have a backlog of blasters on the shelf, so I can't promise we will come out with a review soon, but it's certainly on our list.
