    You gotta have respect for the engineers that design toys in general. I feel like most of the time they’re not recognized for just how clever they are.
    Not only does this have to work, but it has to be a design that’s manufacturable in a way that makes it cheap enough for parents to buy. Well done.

      I’ll answer how a gun fires: A bullet is made metal contained in a shell with golden coloring, which contains gunpowder and a little explosive in a separate compartment at the back. The bullet is located at the front of the shell, where it is fired from. At the back of the muzzle is a small pin that, when the trigger is pulled, hits the compartment with the explosive. The force of the pin pushes the explosive out of the compartment and into the gunpowder, causing a reaction. This reaction causes a small explosion in the shell, pushing the bullet out of the muzzle and leaving the shell behind. You may see on modern guns and semi-auto weapons a golden colored cylinder eject from the back of the muzzle. This is how the gun discards the shell and puts the next round in the muzzle chamber. Also, the small reaction in the shell renders it useless, preventing you from firing the Same shell twice

    @Ashurion-Neonix 4 ปีที่แล้ว +66

    For those wondering about slam-fire: when you hold down the trigger and pull, the "vertical slider" acts as a ramp lifting the bar on the piston above the bar on the priming handle enabling it to fire immediately. If you were to try this on a blaster without slam-fire it will simply not prime. The bar on the priming handle is triangular so it can pick up the bar of the piston during slam-fire since otherwise it would get stuck behind the priming handle's bar.

    • @valentinopani7442
      @valentinopani7442 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Cool I didn't know how slam fire works
      Oh also, some blasters have locks that prevent you from pulling the trigger when the priming handle is back so if the trigger on your blaster doesn't press when primed back don't try to press it or it will break

    Nothing like mechanical systems to power fun in a very intuitive manner, regardless of how complex and clever the design is.
    Reminds me of the Dart Zone Pro Conquest, that one loads the darts through a magazine inserted on the back of the gun and the darts point upwards, and through a pump load it slides the darts into forward facing and prepares the spring. Wonderful

    With a few relatively minor differences mechanically, this is how a single action revolver works. They didn't invent it entirely from scratch, but adapting it to shoot foam darts is pretty clever. They've had revolving nerf guns for decades, but the older ones where much less reliable and where needlessly complicated for reasons that I could hazard a guess on but don't know for sure.

    Pretty good video! Although in the "Nerfing" hobby, we do have different names for certain parts. One thing I did notice is that you (intentionally or unintentionally) left out the slam-fire mechanism. It's a bar (and maybe some other components) that allow you to hold down the trigger and continuously prime the blaster for rapid firing.

    I actually own a disruptor,back in 2018 i got one for basically free, and it was my one and only blaster at the time. I loved it so much that i would daily use it, until it broke back in the middle of 2020. I currently own 6 blasters but i still love the little broken disruptor because of the nostalgic memories i had with it.
    So today i finally decided it's about time i get around and fix it up. Hats off to you because after watching this video i managed to fix it up, apparently both priming notches broke off.

  • @icrazyfish2661

    Good video, but you got several terms a little wrong. The "piston" is called a plunger rod, and the tube surrounding it is the plunger tube.The part that engages with the plunger rod is referred to as the catch, and please, you can just say "prime the blaster". Still, Amazing video, SMASHED DAT LIKE BUTTON!!!

    • @JC-XL
      @JC-XL 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Jared, don't listen to these "modders", your terminology is actually technically more correct than theirs.
      The correct terms for the device (pneumatic cylinder) shown in the animation are piston, piston rod and cylinder.
      To differentiate between a piston and a plunger, you compare the length of the element that provides the seal to the length of the stroke.
      In all modern nerf blasters, that I've taken apart, I've only seen pistons - small height (not the diameter) connected to a piston rod moving inside a cylinder. Maybe some of the first blasters used plungers and people got the term from there.
      If you want to imagine a plunger - think "cylinder within cylinder".
      This picture might make it clearer

    • @icrazyfish2661
      @icrazyfish2661 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      J C with all due respect, the modding community has been using these terms for nerf blasters for decades in some instances. In my opinion, the terms that are used are universal, and will always rule when it comes to nerf blasters.

    Hello Jared, greetings from Australia. If you enjoyed making this nerf gun video, I think you'd love doing a similar one with an airsoft gun (AEG automatic) - a few more moving parts, and timing becomes very important as RPS (rounds per second) is increased.
