    Was it just a standard nitefinder spring? And also how'd you get the nitefinder spring in?

    I found one of these at a thrift store modded and custom painted. It has seriously good proformance.

  • @t0a5ty32
    @t0a5ty32 12 лет назад +1

    No, that's normal. The dart pegs keep streamlines from going in all the way, but if you do the AR mod, you fix that.

  • @kenji06
    @kenji06 13 лет назад

    I did a similar mod to my firefly. One tip, in the barrel mech, you don't have to drill out anything. I removed the entire AR assembly. And unlike the maverick, you don't need the "ring" portion of the AR assembly to put it back together. I found it has better performance and gives a little extra room for the darts especially if you're using dart tag darts. Try it out

  • @derringer153
    @derringer153 8 лет назад +11

    This is where i'd say that i'd rather be a old school nerfer than a modern one because the old school blasters atleast in my opinion had cooler functions and seemed so much funner to work on then the newer guns

    • @wesleymiller3049
      @wesleymiller3049 8 лет назад

      Agreed. Just look of the shell of this thing. All the new blasters are either focused on power or have gimmicks that make them sub-par to other ones of that time.

    Got one from Goodwill. Then I took out air restrictors and double the spring. Now its a monster

  • @noahviitala
    @noahviitala 13 лет назад

    the thing about the stream darts is you have to push them down hard enough so that they go underneath the orange bar on the front end. But good video anyway and it will work when i am done :P.

  • @0akurei
    @0akurei 13 лет назад

    For my firefly, I removed the air restrictors completely. No discs left behind at all, this makes it so your darts get direct air feed, which fires a lot more powerful than the stock gun. I also removed the orange piece in the front, since to me it holds no use, except to hold back my whistle darts. Yes, by removing the orange front piece, you can use whistle darts which are terrifying and intimidating to you opponents

  • @OneofDawnmist
    @OneofDawnmist 11 лет назад

    My best recommendation is to try gently prying apart the stuck pieces with a flathead screwdriver. However, if it doesn't come out like that or it takes significant pressure, then it's probably not worth opening- you might snap a vital internal component. You'll have to find a new Firefly if you really want one as your primary.

  • @LordDraconical
    @LordDraconical  13 лет назад

    @mplot0 obviously not what I meant to say. I meant dont lose this piece

  • @mrdrock
    @mrdrock 9 лет назад

    After AR removal and dart peg removal, this blaster is firing like a stock Elite series. Just push the streamlines deep in the cylinder barrels and they fly 50+ flat. Highly accurate with suction darts, no wild shots. I will definitely be on the look out for more of these.

  • @OMEGA2669
    @OMEGA2669 12 лет назад

    No idea, I don't use streamlines or own my Firefly anymore. I only have my Maverick and my Praxis. I love love love the Praxis.

  • @o0Warthog0o
    @o0Warthog0o 11 лет назад

    You can open the cylinder from the front. Just unscrew those 3 screws. It's much easier!

  • @LordDraconical
    @LordDraconical  13 лет назад

    @SHITONFLICKS I do do commissions all the time, send me a PM, but turning your ertl into a doomsayer would be somewhat expensive. Im not sure quite how much, but itll cost something around $100. Its just a really difficult build with expensive parts. Angel himself charges upwards of 300 for them.

  • @Varue
    @Varue 12 лет назад

    TO DRAC!!!
    Even though this is an older video, I have a request. The firefly overall is a pretty bulky blaster. Its stock is remarkably huge. So, my request is that you take a Nerf Firefly and 'unbulkify (un-bul-ki-fy)' it. It needs a stock attachment in which you can switch out stocks like a recon, and it also needs some more tactical rails. I hope you try this :D

  • @MYud07
    @MYud07 12 лет назад

    I did the same mods to my retro firefly but I took a saw and cut off the back right behind the coking mechanism (the dart holders and butt of the blaster) and gutted the electronics and removed the mirror and turret/barrel cover (for the individual barrels look)

  • @conspiritor1
    @conspiritor1 4 года назад +1

    Do you just throw away all the air restrictions and springs? Also what the dremelled disks look like

  • @MrCarsonChicago

    I like this a lot. Also found my Firefly lying around in the garage but I don't understand something. The part where you said you would turn the dart pegs into discs...I'm new to Nerf, so what does it mean?

    @OMEGA2669 12 лет назад

    FYI, everyone. The NEW Firefly's internals are a little different. Not much. But in mine the plunger assembly is glued together and there is no spring/blue thing in the front. They replaced it with what looks like a better rubber seal.

  • @MrCrackbear
    @MrCrackbear 12 лет назад

    The reason why the firefly is similar to the maverick is because the firefly is the rifle version.

    • @ravenshade266
      @ravenshade266 Год назад

      Except in the way they fire. The Maverick is reverse plungered, the Firefly is direct plungered. That's why the Firefly is easier to mod, too.

    @Poprocks4u 7 лет назад

    Just trying to get things straight, did you Dremel out the 3 spokes of the dart peg and returned only the remaining ring shaped portion? How did you keep it in place? Were the springs and air restricters totally eliminated? This is my first shot at modifications!

    • @Rocklobster6285
      @Rocklobster6285 7 лет назад

      From the looks of it he just cut the center peg portion out of the dart peg leaving just a ring, then sat that back in the back of the barrel chamber.
