    That increase in the Longshot is really impressive. I didn't know it was capable of that with just a spring upgrade.

  • @CrimsonHiroX07

    The super short spring in the barrel is free-floating. It acts as a dampener for the plunger head. The included "scar" isn't a real scar sadly.
    Sorry if this was said before.

    The poll has an option for 'crusher and regenerator' but we did the regenerator in episode 108. Proposal to change the poll to 'crusher and mad mega barrel'
    That lonxshot doubling the fips with a new spring is impressive! Mine's still got the original plunger tube in it as well. I have the aluminium pt as back up, but haven't needed it yet

    My longshot has 18 coils of k25, its about 7.5inch long, so it can actually take even more because yours was only 16 coils great video as usual

    • @rabidpichu7391
      @rabidpichu7391 3 месяца назад

      Mine is 19 coils of pro25. The precompression flexes the prime bar, which is the only reason you'd need sabres. The turnaround broke on mine also, so padding an some madman making a cnc turnaround and pusher would solve everything. GREAT system, just needs better components.

    I'd love to see this design, but manufactured with a higher price point. I really like the profile and look of this blaster.

  • @blendervendor2220
    @blendervendor2220 6 месяцев назад +1

    I put the 3d printed half dart rear loader kit in it and that seemed to get a lot better performance without changing the spring. I think that kit might make it perform better with the k25?

    Yeah, the lock blaster doesn’t like being opened up. My brother got one, and I offered to try opening it up to see if I could do anything, and we spent the next 4-5 hours trying to get that !@#$&^! rotation mech to work. It works now, but it’s a little weird.

  • @dgresham2729
    @dgresham2729 6 месяцев назад +2

    You might need to reinforce the priming linkage on the lock by filling in voids with putty. Possibly on the shell, too. X-Shot's thin plastic loves to flex with heavier springs. Hopefully, it didn't just decide to eat itself. This does give me hope for the reshell that got leaked recently!

    Aw, I liked the editing error...
    I do suggest looking into Foamdemics BCAR for the longshot, replaces the current muzzle. So no more attachment spot, but nice svelte rifling.

    Would an electronic alarm/light system be interesting as a way to confirm hits on the 75 and 100 feet range targets? Like an extra light pressure button so it could still trigger even when darts are out of thud at range..

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  4 месяца назад +1

      That would be awesome. But I would have to set it up and tear it down everytime. Otherwise the miserable rain and damp of the PNW would ruin it. :(

      Or alternatively a solar shed(but the panel works with light) and have it connected to a battery(perhaps a car battery)

      I mean, if I wanted to spend several thousand dollars to solve the issue of "sometimes it is hard to hear if the dart hit the furthest target"...sure. But I don't really feel it is that big of an issue.

    Thank you for this video. I am a big fan of these 2 blasters.
    You are causing me a bit of dissociation whenever I hear you mispronouncing aluminium. It reminds me that you are in fact a North-American. Although your demeanour is mostly European.
    No, I don't mean anything by it. Yes there are differences between people living in the aforementioned geographic areals.

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  6 месяцев назад +2

      Hey now! I didn't mispronounce "aluminium." I correctly pronounced "aluminum." We pronounce it differently because we spell it differently. :P
      Apparently, it was originally going to be alumium, since it was the metal element found in alum salt. But the man who discovered it opted to go with aluminum (no idea why he put that 'n' in there). However, the larger academic world felt an "ium" ending was better as it would match the other salt metals (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, etc) but instead of dropping the 'n' they opted to throw in an extra 'i' and so ended up with "aluminium." And thus started the great divide.
      TLDR: We are both wrong. It should be "alumium." :D

    Please do a video showcasing your upgraded xshot longshot with explainations on why you went with said upgrades.
    I've upgraded 1 with a 400mm barrel, 14kg spring, and metal plunger tube. It hits 210. I'm gonna do another with a metal catch, tube, priming bar, 450mm barrel, and a bcar. I was told 450 is too long, but I'm gonna do it anyway.

    I bought the Lock and love using it for plinking and family nerf battles. The QR code is just a sticker, so you can scan it then take it off. It’s a fun blaster to use in my opinion, kind of biased because I really like lever action lol.

    Please don't snark, but I did notice at one point, when talking about what upgrade the Longshot got from K25, that you said the FPS doubled from 120 to 140, not 240. It was at the 8:47 mark. Otherwise, it's an amazing episode like always.
