I recently modded my Wildfire to HPA using nothing but parts from Ace Hardware by throwing a simple blow gun inside just above the trigger and mounted it in place with rubber grommets. Then added a standard air compressor connector attached to brass piping, also secured with grommets, to keep the connector firmly secured in place. It's basically an HPA hardware tool at this point.
Just sniped one on ebay along with a specter, this video definitely got me excited to shoot it. I have a huge soft spot for full auto air powered blasters
I love these! I did a funny Robot video with these, we had to do like 4 takes ( before I knew how to edit ). Poor Mrs. Warhawk got hit by so many darts 😂 I just wish they didn’t break so easy.
They should make a removable cylinder mag version of this and a smaller size and with at least 78 fps, and a newer version of this that requires less pumping or reasonable amount. And i would buy it. Because it doesnt use batteries, and i just like these things a lot.
I just found mine and there must be a crack somewhere because 20, 30, 40+ pumps and I still feel absolutely no pressure buildup 😢 I have all 20 darts just sitting in the front ready to fly again but alas… no pressure, no fun Anyone have this issue and/or know where I could likely find the damage?
You could take it apart and submerge it, seeing if you can find the leak and use some sort of marine glue or something to seal it. It’s a challenge for sure.
these came out in 2001
My mistake! So many releases!
Needs to be more cool new air powered blasters
I have a yellow one of those.

Ha, sounds cool! I’d like to experiment with HPA more!
@@maritimefoam I have a video of me firing the blaster with a pic of the internals as the thumbnail on my channel if you'd like to see it sometime!

OMG I had one of these, but the seals went bad
Mine seem to be decent!
The grandfather of the legendary magstrike.
