THANK YOU DUDE!!! I made it completely direct plungered in two days and performs smoothly, but it doesn’t shoot that far because I’m using an alpha trooper spring. God bless.
Wow, I'm glad It works. If you want a really good spring I suggest old buzz bee blaster springs, they're heavy but not heavy enough to require both hands to prime.
Bro thank you soooo much for this video!!! It will help me sooo much. I always wanted a direct plunger tube longstrike. Stay safe during these troubled times!!!!!!!
Well I'm glad it's helpful, tell me how it goes and if you have any issues with it refusing to catch. That was my number one problem the first time I did it.
@@springsandsanity6366 Yeah I did the mod and had problems with catching but it was me not securing the plunger tube properly with the plastic posts. It had some play and wouldn’t catch so I used electrical tape to secure it and angle the tube a bit up so the plunger can be caught by the catch.
No I messed up. It wasn't quite aligned so when I forced it the brass caved in a bit wrecking the seal. But if you DO brass the barrel you'll need a heavy spring and the bolt sled isn't gonna like that.
@@springsandsanity6366 Cool, unfortunately mine broke the same way and I've been epoxying it back but would break again :( I don't know if it'll work but I am getting the retaliator parts from worker's prophecy kit.
@@BlitzMantis18 If you feel like it, try to find some, it'll make your blaster better and more robust. But whatever you do don't use grease from a can like WD-40, it'll eat up the o-ring and then the plastic.

Thanks, it didn't take me very long. I could make videos like this every 2 days. But I only upload once a week to stay consistent, and keep a good stash of finished videos/ideas.
Unfortunately no. I have tried numerous times and it just resulted in a deploy that won't deploy anymore and only hit 80 fps. Then I tried just modding the stock internals and got 100.
Dude I have a question - my longstrike was used when I got it and I thought it was fine, but it doesn't shoot further than 10 ft and rlly no power also it makes like a fart sound and Idk if its broken. Do u have any tips?
Certainly. I've seen the breech crack in those things allowing air to escape before propelling the dart. The seal could also be going bad. Try lubricating the O-ring and shoving something under it so it's tighter. Teflon tape would work best.
Hey SAS! I'm quite late on this vid but I have some questions, number 1, how did you go wrong with brass breeching because I am trying to do that too but I really don't wanna break mine :) number 2, why not take out the retaliator AR? It will only cause worse airflow right? That's it!
I messed up the brass breech because I kept carving it down to compensate for the lack of travel from the xpt. And I wouldn't remove the retaliator AR because it's a good design so removing it wouldn't do anything besides make dry firing harmful.
Hey, I've been looking to supe up my longstrike for an event that allows most mods, except aftermarket springs for safety reasons. This conversion is really impressive and I was wondering if you have any advice on how to do this while using the full draw of the retaliator spring instead of swapping it. Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated, thanks!
once you do the mod for the longstrike, it'll require a new spring if you want performance since it will shoot below what the original longstrike did and also once the mod has been completed, the stock retailator spring doesnt compress all the way which is the reason why the stock spring underperforms. the point of the mod is change it to direct plunger and be able to put a stronger spring that wont break the internals compared the the reverse plunger where people have put stronger springs in their unmodded longstrike to find out that the springs break the stock internals. a 5kg spring will do you fine for ur situation
I'm pretty certain they're identical, you could look up internal pictures of both to compare them. I'm also acquiring a MK ll next week so I can open up both to physically compare them for you.

Very nice mod guide. If i get my hands on a longstrike and a spare retaliator i will definitely be doing this.
I ruined a retaliator for the first one, and happened to have 2 more lol

That’s perfect! I have a broken rapid fire tek.
AWESOME, that thing'll pass elite range easily!
It performs great! But it’s super gritty.
That's the spring coils scraping the catch because the spring is too wide.

Just bought a longstrike from goodwill, passed a retaliator on the way out. Guess I'm going back tomorrow
Quick update: got everything shaped up and in the blaster but it's refusing to catch. Here's to hoping I can find what went wrong.
I am still working on the catch of my tripleshot
Good I can't wait to see it
@@springsandsanity6366 this is where the tripleshot story started lmao
@@greenscreenman1717 I remember
Of all my years of nerf modding, I did not think to use a pipe cutter for breaches. Holy fuck why didn't I think of that sooner.
Hey dude, what do you mean by something going wrong when you brassed the barrel?
Are you saying I can't brass the barrel after this mod?
No I messed up. It wasn't quite aligned so when I forced it the brass caved in a bit wrecking the seal. But if you DO brass the barrel you'll need a heavy spring and the bolt sled isn't gonna like that.
@@springsandsanity6366 Cool, unfortunately mine broke the same way and I've been epoxying it back but would break again :(
I don't know if it'll work but I am getting the retaliator parts from worker's prophecy kit.
@@jamespond1816 Worker parts SHOULD be much stronger than stock ones.
@@springsandsanity6366 Maybe, the only way to find out is when the parts arrive...
Im doing this mod when I get a second retaliator
Very Very nice mod tutorial if i ever thrift and extra retaliator and a longstrike i will do this mod.
Late to the party but, Genius! Excellent work here!
Nice mod! I took the air restrictor out of my Nitefinder and I'm getting better ranges then the grey and yellow Nitefinder I got from goodwill
Have you tried making the seal better? That would be the next step, teflon tape and silicone grease.
@@springsandsanity6366 I don't have Teflon tape or silicone grease
@@BlitzMantis18 If you feel like it, try to find some, it'll make your blaster better and more robust. But whatever you do don't use grease from a can like WD-40, it'll eat up the o-ring and then the plastic.
Now I’m thinking about integrating a Longshot and a Longstrike, the Longshrike.
Get rekt I have 200 feet of yard. I WEEN!!
Longshrike is Longstrike in Drac's accent, tell me if I'm wrong.
And have you actually measured your yard? My range is 92 feet across, but diagonal it's about 150.
Across it’s about 200. Diagonally probably 300 to 400 feet.

I used a nail for the taking apart of the metal bolt holder and it worked great, don’t use a drill bit.
I used a spare bike spoke I had haha 😂
Just bought a Sonic green Longstrike!! I think Im gonna try this
imagine a nerf rival apalo spring in a LongStrike.
Does it matter if I use the Longstrike dart tube instead of the retaliator’s? My retaliator has the AR removed.
The longstrike AR is terrible, it might not work as well.
Ok
What about using recon MK II internals
I'm pretty certain they're identical, you could look up internal pictures of both to compare them. I'm also acquiring a MK ll next week so I can open up both to physically compare them for you.
buy/thrift Whiteout Longstrike
Remove internals
Replace internals according to mod (or simplify the process by using Modulus Longstrike internals)
Upgrade Spring
Add Picatinny top rail and whatever optic you want to
(optional) Add Nexus Pro magazine adapter if you want to use short darts
Result Whiteout Direct Plunger Longstrike.
Hope it's not in perfect shape
