In the last video with the Thermal Tracker, you talked about maybe putting the front grip on something else. It hit me today...the Thermal Hunter pump grip, maybe.
An old airsoft trick for bolt actions: If you put your thumb over the bolt as you prime it, you support it from both sides and that means the force is applied more evenly. This means you don't bend your bolt handle. The body of the tracker doesn't let you do this but the Covert Squad does!
Removing the AR on the new buzzbee stuff like the snipe/champion/et al actually helps because they use old style Longshot ARs and not the newer Nerf style ARs (where removing them does very little).
Salutations Captain Xavier. I just had an idea. You could remove the walkie talkie part and add a stock attatchment point to increase the modularity of the blaster.
Captain, I was waiting for the revelation that the Thermal Tracker's stock was extendable from as soon as I finished the previous video. It was extremely gratifying.
I really want another Goodwill Nerf run those are my apsolute favorite videos there funny goofy and awesome they really put a smile on my face and give me a good laugh when I'm not feeling like smiling or laughing
Love a video showing how to replace the little spring for the dart guide cap. Or is it working in the thermal tracker . If not huge decrease in performance when dart is out of position . X-gon mod it wit u. Make it happen capn.🖖
@Captain Xavier how did you get the barrel cap off of the Thermal Tracker so cleanly? I had a lot of trouble getting it off of the one I removed the AR from.
Is the covert squad blasters bolts interchangeable with any of the old predators? I mean they are both bolt action and from what I've seen the bolts look similar.
I put a retaliator 12kg spring in my thermal hunter used a small spacer so it’s same length as stock spring I’m not sure fps but it splits darts when I shoot the wall 7kg is a really nice shooting upgrade and has way more power also
Oh gosh don't I have the stampede rip-off and it jamed so I had to open it up but that had also screwed the gun up so it won't fire. Plus it has a switch to turn It on but the switch is on the opposite side of the mechanical stuff.
The springs would do nothing in a Retaliator. The spring load on Buzz Bee blasters is quite low in stock form (they use almost the exact same spring as the Retaliator). The extra performance they get is from the fact that Buzz Bee plunger tubes are basically the same size as the aftermarket expanded plunger tubes for the Nerf Retaliator. More air volume = more power even at low spring loads. You can toss a 7kg spring in a Buzz Bee blaster, remove the AR (always remove Buzz Bee AR's, it makes a noticeable difference) and you'll be hitting 115 fps easily with most darts, and 130 or so with Buzz Bee's Precise Pro darts.
MongooseJake thank you for the clarification, it’s just I used to use a tek 6 spring in my retaliator because it was a lot beefier than the stock spring and was wondering if the same was for the springs in these blasters.
Could you do more of an in depth mod guide for the hades for k26ing it? All the gears scare me some for messing it up when I paid that much for a blaster that works pretty decently as is, but after the improvement the Artemis saw with a better spring, I'd like to do it for the hades as well.
you should try to find the dartfire, the supersoaker dart firing hybrid blaster. its like a hammershot with the action of a snapfire 8, but I'd like to see if it can take a k26
Captain Xavier I have a sonic barricade and it is broken I was wondering if you could give any suggestions or anything like that. (I already tried super glue but it wasn't strong enough.) let me know. I don't want to break it it is my only special blaster
Konstantin Weik depending on location of break friend you can use electrical wire like a splint and a soldering iron to melt wire into the plastic creating a wire internal structure reinforcing frame . Hope it helps.
Hey caption, I was wandering if you do anything with the clippings (the small ones of course) and if you don't I would like to know if you would be willing to sell them to me.
The "word from our sponsor" bit is one of my fave things with this series.

Salutations Captain Xavier. I just had an idea. You could remove the walkie talkie part and add a stock attatchment point to increase the modularity of the blaster.
The way the stock attaches also makes very easy to carry and use as a walkie talkie, separate from the rest of the blaster.
Two very pleasant surprises. As always, the off-brands deliver.
Wait, I just realized that you can make the Covert Squad into a Nerf version of an Obrez
An obrez is just a cut down bolt-action rifle, so I guess? This has a detachable magazine though, and most rifles cut down to obrezs didn't.
If you want to get technical, the walkie talkie one is already cut down to pistol size
Oh, my bad. For some reason I thought the op was talking about the Thermal Tracker.
The first message from OOD was quite touching. It even brought a tear to my eye.
(Yes, even men with beards can cry too. Try and change my opinion)
And i got notified that you made this one
Not as early as I normally am but Cap always makes me happy.
Is it just me or does the Covert Squad thing seem like it was designed to be magazine-fed?
Same... I got a random raider mag well lying around somewhere for some reason
I love the word from our sponsor
honestly cant believe they caught and I hope lifes been good captain xavier
MAG FED BOLT ACTION? Dear God!
The BuzzBee Snipe has been out for a few years, now.
Captain, I was waiting for the revelation that the Thermal Tracker's stock was extendable from as soon as I finished the previous video. It was extremely gratifying.
:D
Do you have a magnet you use to keep the screws in place? I gotta say that I’m using a strong magnet I have and it makes things so much easier.

X-gon mod it wit u. Make it happen capn.🖖
Another great video. Thank you sir.
The thermal hunter is almost same as a snipe you can also fit worker Kronos springs in bolth hunter and snipe works awesome
Can the new stormtrooper rival blaster take a K26?
Rival springs tend to be the just as powerful, if not more, than K26 anyway.
Yeah K26 is usually just a sidegrade for Rival blasters
I mean it’s a Helios reskin, so I think yes
almost certainly, as it's a rival blaster.
No
Great video ! Since the stock point is detachable have you thought modding it or making it "modular" in true captain xavier fashion.
0:06
*OOF*
double surprise nice one cap
Best intro ever 🤣
I wonder if you could make the second blaster pump action.
You should do a build where you mount the covert squad upside down on a blaster/barrel (kind of like you would do a magnus)
@Captain Xavier how did you get the barrel cap off of the Thermal Tracker so cleanly? I had a lot of trouble getting it off of the one I removed the AR from.
I didn't. It was just poorly glued.
Is the covert squad blasters bolts interchangeable with any of the old predators? I mean they are both bolt action and from what I've seen the bolts look similar.
With enough epoxy...
I put a retaliator 12kg spring in my thermal hunter used a small spacer so it’s same length as stock spring I’m not sure fps but it splits darts when I shoot the wall 7kg is a really nice shooting upgrade and has way more power also
you know i never saw anyone ask this before, but how can you tell those springs apart in that bin 0_o looks like a giant mishmash of springs
How about the new Zuru blasters?
hell you could use the stock as a walkie talkie or a stockie talkie
Hi Captain. have you tried putting K26 into any of the blaze storm blasters?
Nope
Oh gosh don't I have the stampede rip-off and it jamed so I had to open it up but that had also screwed the gun up so it won't fire. Plus it has a switch to turn It on but the switch is on the opposite side of the mechanical stuff.
I feel like Captian is running out of things in his collection to shove k-26 into...
Can you please attempt to make it full size, or provide some tips to do so for cosplay
he Covert Squad may fire now, but after a nerf battle, it will break
One could make a bolt action air blaster from the Covert Squad blaster by replacing the stock with one with air tank/compressor in it.
Yeah, technically that already exists. It is called the Range Master.
@@CaptainXavier I know the Range Master exists but it's so big and bulky. Also the pump being operated by the bolt handle is not very natural.
How much will the walkie talkie blaster be? I love the bolt action
$25 at Target for a pair of them. Reviewed them on my channel and was surprised at the price.
Is there a way you can make the Covert Squad Magazine fed?
Yes
If both blasters were hitting ~80 fps, what would those stock springs do in a retaliator?
The springs would do nothing in a Retaliator. The spring load on Buzz Bee blasters is quite low in stock form (they use almost the exact same spring as the Retaliator). The extra performance they get is from the fact that Buzz Bee plunger tubes are basically the same size as the aftermarket expanded plunger tubes for the Nerf Retaliator.

MongooseJake thank you for the clarification, it’s just I used to use a tek 6 spring in my retaliator because it was a lot beefier than the stock spring and was wondering if the same was for the springs in these blasters.
It would have been funny if they put a magazine cutoff in the Thermal Tracker
Oh yeah
Dope!
I get inspired by you by moding nerf guns it is really fun to do
Could you do more of an in depth mod guide for the hades for k26ing it? All the gears scare me some for messing it up when I paid that much for a blaster that works pretty decently as is, but after the improvement the Artemis saw with a better spring, I'd like to do it for the hades as well.
It really isn't scary. The gears don't even come off.
@@CaptainXavier oh ok do you remember how long it was?
Did I not say it in the video?
you should try to find the dartfire, the supersoaker dart firing hybrid blaster. its like a hammershot with the action of a snapfire 8, but I'd like to see if it can take a k26
It can't. I covered that one a while ago in a video with Walcom.
@@CaptainXavier oh, well that's a shame
@@CaptainXavier could you send me a link to that video?
Captain Xavier I have a sonic barricade and it is broken I was wondering if you could give any suggestions or anything like that. (I already tried super glue but it wasn't strong enough.) let me know. I don't want to break it it is my only special blaster

Can someone tell me a recommend epoxy for plastic?
Broke my toe right after watching this video... Send a 💟 for my broken toe also happy thanks giving yall
Thanks Cap i can always count on you👍
Hey Captain, I've seen the Dominator pop up here and there on the TH-cams and had to ask: "Why 3 sets of Fly Wheels?"
It acts like a rail gun. Each set accelerates the a bit more.
Take the radio/stock. Slap it into something else.
That’s all I have to say.
I got a new zapper with out the cord can u turn into a nerf blaster
It has no ar tho at least mine didn’t
Rtfm Cap, rtfm.
Hi captain Xavier
Hi
Fastest click, was watching a vid by Mister Nathan then I saw this and had to watch
Also what are the pros and cons of metal vs plastic flywheels, fang revamps and a 42.5 cage and semi auto
Hey caption, I was wandering if you do anything with the clippings (the small ones of course) and if you don't I would like to know if you would be willing to sell them to me.
I do use them
Ok
Can a maverick take a k26
Can Captain Xavier take a K26? (Just a joke)
Can any of the Rival springers take a K-26
He can take a k26, and k26 is as strong and/or weaker as the springs in rival blaster
I was watching one of your videos
Can Walcom's 5 dollar tank take a K26?
Wait for it...
🤣🤣🤣 yeah lets see if a jolt can take a k26.
@@christopherwinter2099 I've already covered the Jolt. :P
@@CaptainXavier oh I must of forgot.
The increase in speed is just disappointing
Help us against the furries pls help!!!
Skittles and root beer can it take a k26 video plox
