The “just kidding” at 4:53 was actually really well timed and caught me way off guard. I’m so used to seeing so many channels nowadays just casually whip out the fact that they designed and made a perfectly fitted part after a bunch of CAD work and multiple designs. I totally expected to see that and then you just went “nah I found a pipe that fit it lol”. Idk it’s probably not that big a deal but I personally found it really funny
Hey dr flux, if you see this comment I want to let you know that with the X shot longshot it can take the spring from the Dart zone Max dictator and it’s hitting 285fps on average, give it a try
These were the sidearm to have in the 2012-2014 NIC in Canada. There was a time when they were $5 CAD at ToysRUs. Little bit of shell cutting you could slap a 1/2" CPVC coupler on it. Or nest a brass breech in some 1/2" PVC if you were feeling fancy.
You're bound to find your place on this platform. I feel like we're seeing you figure out your film/content process in real time but you're one of the few who hit the ground running. Keep it up and I have no doubt in my mind you'll make it.
You know, this thing looks pretty similar to a paintball shooter I had when I was younger. I forget what it was called though. I never knew it could have fired a Nerf dart!
The "flintstone house" you mentioned is in my neighborhood! I pass by it all the time. Only recently did the new owners make it colorful and add dinosaurs. Before it was a funny brown clay-looking bulbous house---the personality came with the new owners but there was a bunch of opposition to it. People thought it would be an eyesore, but they went ahead with it and it looks great.
As you know by now, this is definitely a paintball blaster, which is why the spring is so strong. Had one a long time ago. It used proprietary paintballs that were much smaller than standard size.
Yes , 10mm paintballs. I used one of those mini sized bottled waters to make a 100rd hopper for mine. Btw at the time I bought mine 15 years ago ( these were actually around as early as '06-'07 ) they also had the chalk dart version. The port on top was plugged, and they came with these darts that would leave a colored chalk dot on you when hit. I think there were even 2 gun sets with red and blue chalk darts with a plain white vest thing so kids could sort of play a save version of paintball in their backyard.
Honestly I'm more or less concerned about the blaster destroying itself out of power even after seeing the whole thing. I sorta want to see if you can make a version of this project that can reach similar or higher levels of force without any of the self-destruction.
Keep a projectile to absorb the energy and wont have a problem. The problem is when you dry fire, the energy that would go to launch the projectile is redirected into the object itself. Be it bow, or this. Limbs and strings on a bow can explode. Better it to break than explode.
This channel has great potential. In my opinion there’s a vacuum of great nerf content on TH-cam, especially now that coop has retired, and I think this channel, with a little bit of work, could fill those shoes.
Haven't been interested in nerf blasters for years, but still find myself watching the whole video to the end, another great video! Immaculate humor and clear explanations as usual.
I have the exact same one but purple and it's meant for Nerf epicness. It has a 6-dart storage right under the barrel and it used to be the best Nerf gun I owned. Over the years though, it would occasionally shoot like 1ft :C
Just came across your channel and thiught you were a much bigger channel! Instantly subbed, great content, funny and extremely well edited and filmed. Good effort dude, keep ot up!
As a paintball player and referee I just want to say thank for turning that industrial waste into such an amazing blaster. Really does show that ones mans trash is another man's treasure!
Your videos are great, I'm looking forward to more! What's the name of that blaster again? I love how old school this mod is, might have to make it myself
can't believe that within one month and only 3 videos you are 5.35k subs up. keep going, I can see your channel grow to be one of the biggest channels out there!
lol.. I get a good laugh at these kids with the how strong it is,,,,, when they're revieving toys meant to not hurt no matter what... ow ow thay sponge dart him me so hard it hurt.... LOL ps, it''s not the gun, its the darts restricting them....see nerf = for kids under 10 ... airsoft for kids over 10... PAINTBALL 18 or over. this is because kids play paintball and complain how they leave 3" Welts.....its because we cant even feel your " super powerfull stuff" :-\
YT is pretty touchy about anything that could be construed as a firearm, I'm surprised Matt even gets away with this. I highly doubt you could post a similar video about a Roy Rogers BB gun.
Seeing this thumbnail was a trip, I modified one of these when I was a kid and didn't know they were common. My friends hated me for using it and whenever I did we had to wear eye protection and play outside at longer ranges. It was a blast to mess with, a great platform for getting into modding high fps plunger blasters. Forced me to finally make the switch to 3rd party nerf darts, the stock darts fly straighter than a rainbow at that fps
Love the format of this video! Filmed very well, very informative, and delivery was never slow or offpace - solid work! Also, love the band on your seiko!
Back in my high school days (20 years ago) I was big into homemade pneumatic monster blasters made of ABS with sprinkler solenoids and electronic triggers. My greatest one was a breech loading single shot sniper that could put a nerf dart through a soda can. I still have it but I'd be wary to trust the seals after this long. I made a double barrel style one for a friend but unfortunately he discovered that an anti-aircraft round fit perfectly inside it. He forgot one was in there and accidently put his brother in the hospital. I stopped making them after that.
I had one of those paintball guns as a kid. My older brother and I got them as a Christmas gift in probably 2010 or something. I put a nerf dart in it, as I was curious, and out of the box, it shot it out so hard that it flew across the park, and when we found it, it had been blown apart with a huge gaping hole in the side of the dart. It was absolutely insane and I loved using it until I finally threw it out like 6 years later.
Your logo is so simple yet clever! I like it! You should tag all your Nerf guns with that kinda "brand". Especially since it just looks like you're writing "My" 🤣
Hey, I really love this video. This kind of content is what made me so fixated on "Nerf" and adjacent toys when I was a kid, and your sense of dry and straight-faced humor resonates with me. I hope you get whatever you're looking for out of this TH-cam channel.
lmao i had one of those paintball guns as a kid, the first thing i did when i ran out of those dried up paintballs was stuff the barrel with nerf darts and try to get them to stick onto the celling :))
That looks exactly like a paintball gun I had as a kid.. there should be a top end tube the paintballs go in. Oh!!! He acknowledged it! Thats exactly what I thought it was!
@@matt_yuan Man you brought back a part of my childhood I thought was separated from time and space. That gun was the best final shot nerf blaster when your main gun ran out!
I think a bit longer barrel, maybe just 1 inch longer, drilling out the air vent a bit and having a plastic spacer in the back of the plunger instead of the heavy steel socket (making the plunger lighter=more acceleration) would make it easily go up to 160 fps, if not higher.
When I checked your channel for videos I was disappointed and surprised. Only three videos! I was surprised at the high quality because this feels like a video from somebody who has had years of TH-camr experience. I was disappointed and a little sad because there were only three amazing videos for me to watch 😢. Seriously though, keep up the good work.
I made a Nerf gun from a Tippman 98 paintball gun almost 30 years ago. I had to reinforce the darts with duct tape. It was so powerful it would destroy darts. We played a game on college campuses then called "Assassin" where we were basically Nerf hit men trying to take each other out. This was before mass shooters ruined it.
The reason you could feel recoil from that wad because you put a metal weight into the plunger, if you use a plastic spacer instead oth the socket I'd bet that that force would be reduced It would probably be better for the blaster too, both in performance and in its longevity
My son got one of these years ago for his birthday. I found you could hand load a nerf dart into the end of the barrel. It will fire nerf darts stock. It shoots so hard it would split the foam body of the dart. No mods required to shoot a dart a one bye one.
This is actually a good engineered toy, built to last. Here's why: A) The real reason it has a spring, rather than a restrictor valve, is because if you close the air output, you'll overpressure it for a moment, leading to damage to the plunger chamber over time. B) The plunger tube's rubber, which holds the brake spring, is also designed in such a way that it will expand towards the chamber's walls when pressure increases, leading to a better seal. C) The long lever, rather than a pull rod, has a better transfer of force, allowing for children to be able to properly load it. Unlike some nerf guns. It was made by a company called Tech Group, and this specific gun was built in 2(maybe 3?) variants. The Predator, and the Wipeout.
That first FPS... the JT Splatmaster .50 cal "Low impact" spring powered paintball markers do a little more than that or over double, stock. It has a cool design, but definitely lacking power in the start.
you're gonna break your unscrewer if you keep putting coffie in it
coffee is bad for unscrewing-inators
LORE DOOFENSMIRTS GAVE HIM THE UNSCREWINTOR
I need to buy an unscrewbinator so bad to undscrewinate myself
my unscrewer has a coffee attachment
woah that sounds pretty convenient, so u can unscrew ur coffee too

Nah that got me DYING. I was laughing for a good bit with that cut.

Agreed, it's neat that 3d printing tech lets people make custom precise parts, but nothing beats good old jury rigging!
it was good, i was literally thinking, uhhhg, boring. then he was like, just kidding, that was great.
The stock version of this paint-blaster is legit a Flintlock Pistol with extra steps.
to be fair all you do is put a nerf dart in and cock it
@@laundromast well you have to use something to push the dart in
@@beafIsAposer yeah but it doesnt need powder
It should have a plastic feeding tube that goes in the top.
@@laundromast bro, this is nerf gun not an actual gun. Its simply really similar
I've never wanted a flying car, jetpack, teleporter, or any fictional gadget as much as I want an unscrewinator.
You’re going to be a great TH-camr Matt
I meant a successful one
i hope so!
He already is
🥺
Agreed
Wow that Blaster is nuts! Might have to grab one of these. I feel like with that priming mech we might be able to do a brass breach.
i def think you can squeeze more fps out of it with a more efficient barrel
Agreed
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!

@@matt_yuan i've seen some blasters that go past 200 fps
These were the sidearm to have in the 2012-2014 NIC in Canada. There was a time when they were $5 CAD at ToysRUs. Little bit of shell cutting you could slap a 1/2" CPVC coupler on it. Or nest a brass breech in some 1/2" PVC if you were feeling fancy.
i did the cpvc coupler back in the day
Wow are you younger me? Lol I bought them from TRU Canada about the same time and modded it similar.
@@matt_yuanthere actually was a plastic tube used as a magazine for it
Yo that's sick, I was wondering where my grandpa got it for me when I was a kid. Cool info

pew pew!
it is a paintball launcher, it just also shoots darts
I had something similar, too! never realised that it was a paintball shooter, though.
There’s a few versions of it
Supasplat is the name
“Unscrew-Inator!” Bruh literally doofenschmirtz
This pistol will be very useful against people who don't call their shots.
The "flintstone house" you mentioned is in my neighborhood! I pass by it all the time. Only recently did the new owners make it colorful and add dinosaurs. Before it was a funny brown clay-looking bulbous house---the personality came with the new owners but there was a bunch of opposition to it. People thought it would be an eyesore, but they went ahead with it and it looks great.

yea, however I'm noticing all nerf guys have a certain tone to their voice...(homosexual), probably because they don't fit in the gun community.

Thats just what happens with a lot of nerf guns ocasionally they just plop out
Moreso if you don't push the dart in all the way
In an year, we will come back to this video for your humble beginnings when you hit 1 million subscribers
Just came across your channel and thiught you were a much bigger channel! Instantly subbed, great content, funny and extremely well edited and filmed. Good effort dude, keep ot up!

oh damn that's so impressive. i love finding new engineering and contraption channels like this, cant wait to see more of your stuff.
You’re doing great Matt, keep up the hard work!!
some of the strongest springs i’ve found have come from umbrellas, the spring(s) inside of a folding/collapsible umbrella are insane
😳
I really like the vibe in your videos. Looking forward to the next one : )
thank u, that means a lot :)
Now that I have these schematics I’m going to build the perfect weapon for winning all nerf fights, Perry will never stop the bruise inator.

Don’t you just hate it when anti-aircraft rounds fit perfectly into your dart guns >:(
I HAD THIS SAME BLASTER YOU JUST TRIGGERED CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA. Also modded it into a nerf gun and made darts tipped with washers
"mmm, the screws smell pretty good too!"
You have no idea how amazing it is to see that myself and my friends weren't the only ones to use that exact "paintball" gun as a Nerf blaster.
300 fps or more is achievable with the right bits and bobs. Quite funny too.

For some reason your videos interests me the most compared to other nerf videos. 🤔
It works nearly identical to how break barrel air rifles do, replace the parts with metal and youll have a weapon to surpass metal gear
Yeah, I was going to point out the same thing, it pretty much works exactly like an under lever or side lever air rifle.

The reason you could feel recoil from that wad because you put a metal weight into the plunger, if you use a plastic spacer instead oth the socket I'd bet that that force would be reduced
It would probably be better for the blaster too, both in performance and in its longevity
“Hm the screws smell pretty good too” bro wtf be smelling screws 😂💀
You're feeling recoil because that socket is very massive compared to a plastic insert. The plunger would also move much faster, by moving less mass.
