you're my child self's hero lol. i loved taking toys apart and thinking i could improve them, would usually just end up playing with the springs and magnets
Perfectly stated. I used to take apart my nerf guns and would either loose parts, forget how to put them back together, or simply break something 😂. I love watching this guy do what me as a child dreamed of. Can’t wait for more videos!
Yes! I thought it would be ages before we saw another upload, but you had content lined up for us! Love the nerf projects, I used to do research on modifications, early TH-cam days but never performed any myself. There was a double barrel "Buzz-Bee" nerf gun I thought would be amazing if it shot more accurately. The darts were loaded into plastic "shells." Very cool double barrel design. From old models to new, so many design tweaks are possible!
@@mattie_y if you can find that model online, it might be a good starting point to seeing how one that was manufactured works! I can't wait for that video! Love the work 🙏
@@jumanjithemusical I presume you are talking about the Buzz Bee walking dead shotgun style blaster? I own one of those myself That one has a spring in the barrel, which pushes against a part of the shell and is locked into the barrel by some plastic bits at the back of the shell and closing the blaster releases those catches and when you open it, the shell ejects.
@@thebfiaid957 yes! It sounds like they are still manufacturing it, I had it many years ago, around 2009 or so later? I hope it's improved in a good way!
Always love seeing up and coming DIYtubers, these beginnings are very reminiscent of the beginnings of several large channels in the TH-cam DIY scene. Even if it's just fun projects like this, the content is super enjoyable and I can't wait to see more!
That was a novel solution for the prime length issue! I would've ended up trimming the spring a coil or two and probably ruin the squared ends forever haha
The re-enactment of you taking out the old spring and putting a new one in to fire small blue balls out of a long, hard plastic tube was truly inspiring 🗿
This technique is called "shotgun loading" and you can do it with some stock nerf blasters! I've been out of the nerf sphere for a while so it's hard for me to think of any examples off of the top of my head, but still. I saw your other nerf modding video too and I'm a big fan! I like how you (seemingly?) don't have much experience with nerf modding, nor do you seem influenced by what people are already doing/have already done. It's very fresh and entertaining ^^
@@mattie_y I guess that explains the impression I was under. Back in the day people didn't have much to go off of and so there was alot of experimentation and everything and I think you have that energy with this stuff. Like it's the wild west again! XD
Usually what you do is cock it once, then often there's a button you can press that is meant for clearing out jams but basically just lets you cock agajn
Maybe you could make it shoot 50cal foam balls! They are smaller than rival rounds so I think you can fit more in the blaster without having to use a more powerful spring
You should see if you can print off a barrel that holds those "mini" rival balls and have them closer together, as well as a new rotater that rotates it less for every prime so you can shoot three shots and have more shots (if that makes sence) very cool idea with the stronger spring! It looks like it adds a good bit of fps.
When i saw the title i thought that he was makin it into an actual shotgun that shoots reall ammo that can kill things. I was relieved to find out i wrong lol
You've only got two videos and I'm already hooked, the fact you got the blaster to open up by talking about it's feelings made me laugh so hard when the shell clacked open that I choked on my soda. Liked, subbed, favorited, keep doing this good and I'll be proud to say I've watched since the beginning.
I've never used a Nerf gun, never really had any interest in them. Not sure why TH-cam recommended this to me, but I'm glad it did. You make the video interesting and entertaining, and I look forward to seeing more. Keep it up!
If you made those barrels brass or just drilled them out a little I'm sure you could get 3 to fire. A rival ball in a mega barrel is a pretty tight fit.
Just watched your first vid and began the rest, the sub was earned the minute you made the "shotgun" open up about its feelings 🤣. Love you style of editing content/vlogging, and how you engage with the camera!
I remember watching vamp somethin YEARS ago, when rival first came out. He complained of how expensive they were and looked for chinese knockoffs, found some for cheap that worked great BUT were too small in diameter to make a good seal with the rival blasters or run reliably through flywheels. It might be worth it to order some chinese knockoffs and see if they work better in this niche application!
Matt: takes apart Nerf gun. Other Nerf guns: Compact SMG is next. Compacr SMG: What did I do? Other Nerf guns: You don’t reload from the top like THE REAL ONE!
Hey Matt. I'm a teenager that's pretty into nerf, and this might be my first mod that I ever do. I've never modded anything but this looks relatively simple. Keep up the fantastic content! You're the best nerf TH-cam channel!
former spring manufacturer here. if you want to shorten a spring by a few milimeters you can infact put both ends to a grinder and hone the ends flat. almost no preformance of the spring is lost this way. and the thing that the spring will seat in wont have to change. this is done all the time when producing model specific springs.
I viewed all three vids and clicked on your channel and saw that you only have three vids. Your videos make it seem that you've been doing this for a while and although I am sad there are no more videos from you I am excited to see what more funny yet educational videos await!!!
Blue balls is an accurate here. For example: If you watch spicy content with no release, then you get blue balls. Also, if you play with Nerf guns whilst imagining the potential of a real gun - blue balls? See - the metaphor works
Drilling out the cylinder bores a bit should help. Measure the ball diameter and get a drill bit just slightly smaller. Wet sand to hone the bores smooth and it may even shoot four balls. Be sweet to hydrodip it too.
Hey your videos are awesome I love what your channel is about and it is exiting the someone is exiting about nerf so keep up the good work and I hope you do well

Honestly i was expecting him to turn it into an “actual shotgun” this would guarantee a 100% winner at any nerf war.
LOL me too... nerf is meant for toddlers... men came to watch him put a real shotgun in it... aka ACTUAL SHOTGUN... LOL
why would you think that? its not like its in the title!
@@siqsteen i think they mean an actual gun, the kind that shoots real bullets

Same, I would've broke out the dremel and took some coils off lol.

The production value has already gone up a ton, excellent video
glad u can tell the difference 🙏
the two little pats on the piece of painters tape after the dramatic reenactment was just perfect xD

they sell balls the same diameter as elite darts which i might try in the future…

As a nerfer/modder, it's really cool seeing a new channel introduce a bunch of people to the hobby!,
The therapy joke got me laughing, you’re gold dude
This video is great!! Other videos following the style of these first 2 would be awesome.
I love your content and humor, very nice and fun to watch!
That spring replacement part of the vid 😂 solid gold!
what can i say the blaster has a great stunt double

Awesome! Loving your channel and multi shot conversations are always the most fun mods to do
Great second video!! Excited to see more man!
Great video! Hope you get more popular!
Honestly an amazing channel. Keep up the good work. ❤
Legends say that the camera still isnt broken to this day
Really well edited! Can’t wait for more!
Bro's doing what I've wanted to do during quarantine and i love it
now you got some very interesting ideas that actually work! Very good job

I absolutely loved this video. Ur so funny and the video was very educational. Well done. Keep these videos coming man. Im a big fan now.
Matt: How excited do you want me to be in this video?
TH-cam: Yes.
i don't know if you Actually didn't record the spring replacement or not...but the dramatic reenactment was very good. keep it up, my dude.
I love this guy, makes enough jokes where its funny and doesnt over use the comedic aspect. Thank you for making my day better!
appreciate it!
You've definetly got to design a different cylinder for other ammos, especially 50cal foam balls. Not sure if you've heard of them or not

Yo this is awesome, different from most nerf mods I’ve seen
I like how every person in the world has the exact same caliper and needle nose pliers
why was i expecting him to turn it into a actual firearm

Drilling out the cylinder bores a bit should help. Measure the ball diameter and get a drill bit just slightly smaller. Wet sand to hone the bores smooth and it may even shoot four balls. Be sweet to hydrodip it too.

I love how a single man can make a better gun than a million dollar company
Brilliant! You have a new subscriber! 👍
ngl the dramatic reinactment was mad helpful lol
Great work can’t wait to see what you do next

He was the happiest man alive when that gun worked for the first time
For those who want to have a gun like this, you can get the same effect by loading extra foam balls into the barrel of a nerf rival pistol.
Awesome mods and very fun presentation!
I love these videos. Keep em coming 🤓
Hey your videos are awesome I love what your channel is about and it is exiting the someone is exiting about nerf so keep up the good work and I hope you do well
This is really rad. Good call on the spring problem. I would've just cut the spring and lost power.
thanks! i think my approach loses a bit of power too but def easier than cutting the spring given the tools i have
Good job it looks great
Another solid video
nerf hyper sounds like the way to go for 3 balls at once
You look like a TH-camr that should be super popular, wish you the best.
Ok i like the short visual gags you put in this video. There vary entertaining. More please.

He opened up the shotgun in such a violent manner. I hope nobody has to go through what that shotgun went through. 😥

Nice! You should get the shotgun cylinder for the for the Nerf Boom dozer. it turns a mega xl into a shotgun that fires 3 darts at once
props to the stock you made looks excellent.
