The Lock n Load was a classic, it was the goto pistol for years, we used to yank off the big yellow slide, PVC the barrel, and stretch the spring (yes, stretch, we did not know how springs worked).
Pretty sure you don't lose any efficiency in the Lock n Load slide return. It's on a separate return spring that returns after the thing actually fires. I believe it unhooks right at the end of the prime. Issue with the K26 is the spring is too large diameter. 5kg or 7kg retaliator spring is perfect for the blaster and gets it 110 and 130fps respectively. Best single shot pistol in my collection.
What I mean is the diameter (7/8" or whatever) being that big scrapes along the catch and makes it either not catch at all or makes it fire while priming. Even a Kronos spring and boomco m6 spring misfire with that scrapeage. Gotta use those retal springs or nothing. Believe me, I did a spring search for a while. Great vid, by the way.
@@Kuli24000 I love my LnL. did you remove the upper slide and add a loop to the plunger rod? then it becomes a very compact powerful single shot. very holsterable.
@@Kuli24000 Haha, tbh, I think removing the slide makes it kick up -more-. It pulls up very hard even with it off. You have to keep a very stiff upper wrist to get it to shoot level either way.
Would it be worth testing the upgraded X-Shot Reflex? The original technically passed but the spring rattled too much. Maybe the longer draw on the 2018 redesign would help reduce that. Or I could be having a dumb moment and the draw would make no difference to the rattle. What about the X-Shot Stalker/Angel Fire? The internals are a bit weird and the plunger tube might be too thin, so that's where I'd expect it to fail. If it can take k26, the bow arms come off easily to give you a rocket-firing pistol with a long draw.
The air zone revolver was produced by Prime Time Toys and branded for Toys R Us, and the exact same blaster is available as the Dart Zone Quickfire 8. I've seen them for sale at Dollar General.
Unsure if you will see this, Cap... but.. yes. Retal springs DO indeed fit inside the larger diameter rival springs! With will be helpful for future high spring power double spring set ups. Rival springs are now added to the growing list of springs which will fit retal springs! The list is now most rival springs, c836, k26, k25, and i will assume the new pro26 foamfreaks has. Theyre perfect fits. And while stock retal springs wont really give any sort of increase in power... 12kg ones will. Bwahaha
I bet the lock and load would work with that spring if it was made direct prime, people typically do that with nightfinder priming handles. Now if one was able to keep the cool priming grip and make it prime/fire more like a strongarm, THAT'D be cool, but I'm sure a mechanical nightmare if not outright impossible.
Ok I think I found a oddball blaster right up your ally to consider for K26. The "BuzzBee Pirate Flintlock Foam Dart Blaster". If that thing can take a k26 and a brass barrel you would have the most styling one shot springer on the field.
The deploy might not be bad if you made it direct plunger and lubricated the parts. It's a shame the performance of a stock deploy is so poor, and it's pretty hard to mod the deploy, thanks to it being reverse plunger and generally difficult to mod, as I adore the shell. Maybe if you added entirely new internals it would be better, but that is beyond me, as I am a new and inexperienced modder. Oh and yeah, anybody who is toxic about the deploy shall face the wrath of the KGB and the foam I shall fling at you, =P
This will sound silly but i'd like to see someone put flywheels in a deploy or something. maybe a mini afterburner using the same setup that flywheel recon has
Finnhazsnitchel Gleeson nah, I am flywheelmasterace to, =P. I just like to have both because I know the springs are better to make long range shots, as there is a limit for how fast you can make a flywheel blasters shoot(FPS), but springs can go a bit farther, and a brassed homemade blaster(like a rainbow pistol or a similar powerful blasters) can shoot stupid hard and far.
the stat blast blasters are really cool.... do you have a Stats Blast power strike 9? it's a van hellsing looking crossbow thing, with the same safety as this one.... if you can find one please do a k26 video on it :)
Have you ever done one on those hvz branded blasters they had out a few years ago that we’re kinda crappy butbinteresting because they were officially licensed hvz blasters?
I wish that Xavier would tell you how many coils/how long the k26 spring should be if successful. And maybe tell you some tips/pain points of disassembling the blaster instead of just a timelapse and results
Get the x-shot tk 6 pistol, huge direct prime plunger tube. Get the new advance white and blue one it is better than the yellow and orange in stock colour and performance.
home made half darts is not really a good idea because you can just buy them cheap, or buy ridiculously cheap full lengths, print a dart cutting jig and make your own. Also, people tend to be irresponsible with dart manufacture, putting weights and other nasty stuff in the tip, so it's probably not best to give people ideas.
Mephiston I’ve had heads blow off when about 150-200 FPS is put through them. And buying cheap darts to cut can lead to dart heads blowing off and foam inconsistencies. And people who put nails on the tips are just irresponsible.
Indeed. However, manufacturing your own darts also raises a lot of quality variance issues too, and you can always just glue dart heads back on. If he did a video on how to do that, I'd be okay with it. Also, most places wont accept homemade darts for the very reason that they are basically an unknown, and there is no real way to ensure quality and safety. Better to have the heads blow off crap darts than have someone injured by an improperly or overweighted homemade dart. People used to put washers and lead weights in the heads of those, as well as other nasty surprises.
Mephiston that’s why I recommended the idea so then this old effective knowledge more effective with today’s amazing advances. And while some people are the kind that enjoy shooting nails at people. The field owners could require felt tips to bring down the chance of people being hurt by darts.
If you really ever run out of K26 ideas, you could always start a new series called "Can it Take a K25?" I thought about doing that as a comic spin-off myself, but I lack the time and resources...
Captain Xavier also, I have skill in fencing, so I was hoping to go against a master in it, after all, you probably did a lot of that back in your militia days
Hey, Captain Xavier. I recently received some cash and would like to get your opinion on a worthy investment. Oh, and by the way, thanks for liking my comment on one of the previous videos!
I passed on that Stats Blast pistol 100 times at TRU, now i want one and TRU is gone!!! Figures!
Great video as usual!
You can find this pistol at some Dollar General stores, though in dark lime.

By the Gods you are right! And yes, the k26 is too thick, thus not enough compression, thus not catching.

Also, the ERTL Pump Action Shotgun and the Air Zone Triple Shotgun [aka Lanard Shotgun] to see if those 2 can take a K26.
And here's the wild card; the SureShot Hover Blaster.

Captain Xavier
try the kid connection dart and disc blaster for 7 bucks at walmart, also the power ranger guitar sword blaster lol
The stat blast pistol just a toy'r'us version of the Dartzone quickfire 8
The first one would look awesome with a more slim lined charging handle!
I have one of those air zone revolvers, they have good power stock, only takes air zone and xshot darts though.
FYI - noticed today that Target is starting to carry Walking Dead blaster line. Also, have you done the Buzz Bee Thermal Hunter rifle/pistol?
Thermal Hunters - ep. 47 (yay search!)
Have you ever done one on those hvz branded blasters they had out a few years ago that we’re kinda crappy butbinteresting because they were officially licensed hvz blasters?
For ep 69
The lock and load looks so much cooler without the slide it'd prolly be better to just make it direct prime from the back.
I wish that Xavier would tell you how many coils/how long the k26 spring should be if successful. And maybe tell you some tips/pain points of disassembling the blaster instead of just a timelapse and results
Gerank Fok I will take that into advisement. 90% of the time the k26 is the same length as the stock spring.
Nice >:]
Do you have a plan for dealing with how the Stats Blast blaster doesn't work well with full-length darts?
Yes. I plan to use half darts.
Do you have one of those knock-off Lego cups
The quick fire8 it's $10 at Dollar general
looks like the offspring of a Lanard Judge än X-8 Rotator
you should try putting k-26 in one of those connects kforce blasters and just watch it explode
Where does west vs zombies always take place?
Well it has only happened once...
This year it was in Montana. It will probably move around so peoole can get to go.
Captain Xavier I hope it reaches Louisiana lol.
Louisiana is not in the West...I mean, yeah, technically most of it is West of the Mississippi...bit still...
Captain Xavier oh, wow I sound so dumb right now. Lmao
Captain Xavier Also, not to get on your nerves but, do most hvz events have "prizes" for completing missions?
The etrl rapid fire shotgun?
Some of the Walking Dead are clearancing at your local Target.
The stats blast thing is a Renegade.
Get the x-shot tk 6 pistol, huge direct prime plunger tube. Get the new advance white and blue one it is better than the yellow and orange in stock colour and performance.
i think you should do the older Toys R Us blasters for future episodes
Dollar General has that revolver thing.
Goodwill episode soon?
Probably not. I am out of storage space.
The white one is called a rapid 8
Do episode 420 next
Hi, I was curious if I can ship you a Rival Hades for a K26 episodes. I would be willing to pay shipping both ways if you are up for it😁
Mine arrived yesterday so I'm covered. ;)
Captain Xavier ok, I just figured I offered, can't wait for the the next video. Thank you for replying
Can the new Scout take a K26? It looks a lot like the Quadrant, so my assumption is no
Nice
Five below has some weird off brand Nerf guns
do the X-Shot TK-4 / fury 4
Idea for Monday mod tips
Stefan’s/half darts
And homemade nerf guns/ snap and rainbow catches
Just an idea

"today we will see if these can be upgraded using a K26 spring"
me explaining this "he's gonna try and shove a super sturdy sprang up in there"
Nice
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
If you really ever run out of K26 ideas, you could always start a new series called "Can it Take a K25?" I thought about doing that as a comic spin-off myself, but I lack the time and resources...
Awesome Video Buddy ;)
Yay new video
Hey Cap,
I have another question This time it's
Making rival Scar barrels
Abdulbar Shams what's the question?
Captain Xavier It's another one of my weird ideas
Its a RIVAL SCAR BARREL all I am asking is can it be possible
Captain Xavier Another thing is that you make an extremely overpowered blaster (SNIPER) like an Air warriors Snipe if we can then how
Abdulbar Shams anything is possible. Whether it would be functional is an entirely different matter.
Captain Xavier I am also referring to that matter CAP
WILL IT BE FUNCTIONAL
More words from Luke’s word hoard.
If you run dry on ideas, you could do ones for other hobbies.
This series is awesome. You should try make a legit +150 FPS sniper rifle
I have several and I plan to build at least two more soon.
I am planning on buying the Worker (F10555) Prophecy M82 Barrett 50 Cal Kit, and I would like a review or a build to see how to get the most out of it
Good video can me and you have a talk I’m self is a big fan one year I had all of the Lin of nerf guns
nice.
Yah a air zone blaster
Giggity
Why didn’t you do something special for 69?
...because I am more mature than a 12 year old...
So chaylo, will you be taking a melee weapon to the next Jared’s epic nerf battle?
Probably, a small discreet one. As a general rule melee weapons are not allowed.
Captain Xavier ok, thanks for the tip, because I may or may not bring the swift justice I thrifted a while back
Nice. That is what I brought this year.
Captain Xavier yeah, I was there when it happened, I was the kid who asked you to sign his clear backpack
Captain Xavier also, I have skill in fencing, so I was hoping to go against a master in it, after all, you probably did a lot of that back in your militia days
Alright alright alright...
nice
I want so bad to make an inappropriate joke, but I will not
Neon Man54 the intro?
@@janetpoche3716 yep
Why not make a vid on other darts ;)
Hi
hi
Xavier, no dislikes noice
get a nerf zombie strike scavenger
Can TH-cam itself take a K26?
Yes
[insert 69 joke here]
Hey, Captain Xavier. I recently received some cash and would like to get your opinion on a worthy investment. Oh, and by the way, thanks for liking my comment on one of the previous videos!
