Instead of removing the grip like that, you can flip up bottom corner of one side of the rubber grip to reveal the bottom screw. Remove the screw. Flip the blaster around and do the same. This releases the metal part of the grip and should allow the rubber grip to slide off.
Every time my 4 year old hears your voice he says, “Watch heavy darts because that’s my favorite video.” referring to your breakdown of the Worker lightweight and heavyweight darts. LoL
Man I love the look, sound, design, and I’m sure sturdiness of a lot of 3D printed springers… Being a budget Nerfer, I can’t bring myself to snag one when I can get a X Long to 260fps for $50 total. Wish I had more expendable income 😂 Fantastic video!
This isn't a 3D printed blaster, but I can definitely see where you're coming from. Mass produced injection molded blasters like the ones from Worker are definitely more economical to buy than a 3D printed blaster.
Outstanding performance after the upgrades. I’ll for sure have to try the same upgrades to my seagull and take it out on a field sometime! Great mod video man keep it up
Is that new blaster the reason why Sabre doesn’t sell M20s anymore? Look at you, Bradley. Getting the early scoop! (Being “one of those Americans” I’m used to you getting things after us. LoL jk) Love your breakdowns, reviews, and blaster gameplays(wish you had more). Waiting on your next review!
I want to talk to you all about barrel coatings Coming back to this video after upgrading my seagull with a: 260mm barrel i cut down and recrowned from the included 310mm barrel t238 tracer bcar 1.6x300mm spring Sabre metal catch, priming block and still waiting on my metal plunger on backorder But what I'm interested in sharing with you guys is that I've been experimenting with barrel treatments (not waxing them lol) Frog lube is a food grade metal protectant and lubricant used in the firearm industry. One applied correctly it leaves an almost undetectable film on the material that makes parts extremely slick. After treating my barrel with frog lube and letting it cure overnight I'm shooting a high of 270 fps with an average of 248 over a ten shot test group. Lowest power shot was 187 but I don't think I seated the pusher all the way. I feel it would be worth doing a more in-depth study into barrel coatings like this that are super easy to apply and maintain but I'm limited to a Chrono that doesn't go to decimal points and I don't feel I could provide the best data in depth. I was curious @BradleyPhillipsYT if you have ever done any testing with barrel coatings?
I dont understand why your prime is so light. I have the out of darts ood heavy harrier spring in mine and the prime is so heavy i feel like I am going to blow out my elbow.
As I was late getting the Harrier I used other people's numbers as a baseline to compare to with the Sabre one. Others have since confirmed the metal plunger increases velocity with the Harrier. I think the Seagull just doesn't have enough air volume to do the same.
@@BradleyPhillipsYT comparing to other Harrier vids, you are the only one getting 300 numbers with the 365 mm barrel. So... Maybe an add-on vid from the master himself for science sake?!
I’ve seen that some peoples bcars make a whiz noise after a dart passes through because the bearings are spinning so fast, but with the one in the video and my personal ones, the bearings do not spin or do so slowly. Do you know why?
Possibly the type of bearings. Some don't actually use true bearings but use other things like rivets. Or those ones could be contacting the plastic housing. Not a sound I've experienced with the BCARs I've tested, including Foamwork Adelaide and even the initial Chinese ones.
It is twice the weight of the stock plunger rod, so possibly. Though it is padded, the entire power train is metal, and the shell itself is thicker than anything you'd find from Dart Zone, Nerf or Xshot.
That makes sense, as I hadn't actually opened it prior I didn't know where all the screws were located or whether it was only the bottom one holding that on.
@@Tankpacqikcao The guy who won the marksmanship comp at Arma is in my local group, and he uses a self designed pcar. A lot of peole in my group swear that pcars are more consistant than bcars, if you can willign to live with the bit of fps loss.
Hmmm looks like the metal plunger rod is gonna go in my Harrier instead of my Seagull, with the 1.6×250 my sd is already really low so there's no reason for me to take the fps hit. Although I wish you tested with the Heavy darts as I've been finding my Seagull struggles to get good consistent accuracy with them.
Hey did you end up after a while having the blaster firing wrong ie lacking power every 4th or 5th shot after the upgrades and greacing as mine is and its getting annoying
I asked Worker about it and they said in testing they encountered vacuum loading without it. They must be priming their blasters faster than most people do.
Brad you are the person to contact about this. Let's talk about developing micro darts vs traditional 1/2 darts with a higher BC for longer ranges, more accuracy, higher capacity and lower costs... how can we get in. contact. (Diameter) 9mm to 10mm (micro dart(s vs traditional 13mm (half darts) (Length) 25mm to 32mm (micro darts) vs 36mm to 38mm (half darts) (Weight) three different weights .30 gram, .60 gram, and .90 gram (micro dart) vs 1.00 gram (half dart) same fps just more aerodynamics
@@BradleyPhillipsYT I think it would be easy to modify any existing blaster. And the capacity would be higher with smaller darts. Wide adoption would make them lower priced based on the dart needing less material to produce. Im just wanting a dart that is more aerodynamic has a boat tail for a high ballistic coefficient. Just squeezing out every bit of performance out of this round while maintaining the same FPS limits 250 fps to 300 fps not exceeding 400 FPS. Look at the first strike paintballs. These have fin stabilizers. people claim to hit 100 yds or more. Look at the Minié ball or Minie ball coupled with rifling compared to the round balls shot out of smooth bore muskets. Half darts are blunt and very bad at aerodynamics. We streamline this Dart lower its weight give it a boat tail make it more aerodynamic and give it good rifling we can have a real winner. EPP foam would work fine. The lower weights would make its be more affected by wind yes but if the dark is spinning fast enough and is shaped right it will shoot farther and more accurate but won't hit as hurt as bad as a 1 gram half dart or a .68 caliber paintball.
@@BradleyPhillipsYT you are the biggest name that can get this going for the sport bro I've been subscribed to you for a long time I've been looking up to you for a long time
i use the sabr bcar on my storm with a 49cm barrel (MM red 50cm barrel, I sawed 1cm to remove the chambering void) and consistently hit 315fps 9SD with worker 1g bamboo. This is an overly accurate motherfucker.. also use EZ 51 darts drum XD
@@BradleyPhillipsYT I also have a Sabre Ultima, got a pretty good idea ;) hehe Known for the Apex for a while, I'm very happy to see it launch this will be game changing for lots of people, I'm also really looking forward to see what they changed in the priming mechanism

Is the metal priming block all metal including the bottom rail ?
@@ryantan1022yes

That would make it a little easier, thanks for the tip!
Is this applicable to the harrier too? Assuming you remove the cutlass style front handguard first
This was way easier to do than I thought!

Just curious what all have you done to your longshot? And has it been reliable
this persons longshot has probably exploded by now do not buy that thing lmao
I just let myself get broke, at least ill be poor with a nice worker seagull to take my aggression out with
Wow. Great vid. Love the overlay of each rifling’s group towards the end
I do this for every video 😆
Each upload is getting better and better mate. Rep'n SA like a boss.
Uh- maybe use a different abbreviation lol
I am also a reseller of the Sabre parts Western Australia. The parts are worth every penny.

The Apex Prime does indeed replace the M20. Video next week.
Thank you for getting me into gel guns love from the US
Being in the US, have you ever tried Airsoft? Similar thing but they shoot further and more accurately.

I want to talk to you all about barrel coatings
Coming back to this video after upgrading my seagull with a:
260mm barrel i cut down and recrowned from the included 310mm barrel

Seems like misalignment
The surface is so smooth
that Bcar is expensive, any other good non-3d printed option for 250-300 fps harrier?
What scope are you using
Scopes intended for actual firearms
No Harrier POM vs CNC plunger rod vid, now that you got one?
As I was late getting the Harrier I used other people's numbers as a baseline to compare to with the Sabre one. Others have since confirmed the metal plunger increases velocity with the Harrier. I think the Seagull just doesn't have enough air volume to do the same.
@@BradleyPhillipsYT comparing to other Harrier vids, you are the only one getting 300 numbers with the 365 mm barrel. So... Maybe an add-on vid from the master himself for science sake?!
Does the harrier also have the same hole in the back of plunger like the seagull too?
Also, is the swift plunger compatible with the harrier/seagull?
Pretty sure the Swift plunger is longer so wouldn't fit, and yes the Harrier has the hole too

@@BradleyPhillipsYT gotcha. Ty
Wouldn't the metal plunger cause increased wear on the outer shell?
It is twice the weight of the stock plunger rod, so possibly. Though it is padded, the entire power train is metal, and the shell itself is thicker than anything you'd find from Dart Zone, Nerf or Xshot.
Seagull is one of the Best rental blaster
When taking the grip off, just take the sling mount off beforehand, it makes it way easier to slide on and off.
That makes sense, as I hadn't actually opened it prior I didn't know where all the screws were located or whether it was only the bottom one holding that on.
Thanks for this video!
要不要幫上膛模塊做低阻力改裝？
daaaaamn that bcar is $115 USD?! That's craaaazy, Almost as much as the Seagull itself, lol.
Probably its hard to make, or the results speaks for itself. Probably the top 3 in marksmanship competition uses that bcar.
@@Tankpacqikcao The guy who won the marksmanship comp at Arma is in my local group, and he uses a self designed pcar. A lot of peole in my group swear that pcars are more consistant than bcars, if you can willign to live with the bit of fps loss.
How are the metal parts holding up after some time now?
If I used hard plastic tip darts would it hurt? And do I need the metal parts if I put the stronger spring inside?
Hmmm looks like the metal plunger rod is gonna go in my Harrier instead of my Seagull, with the 1.6×250 my sd is already really low so there's no reason for me to take the fps hit. Although I wish you tested with the Heavy darts as I've been finding my Seagull struggles to get good consistent accuracy with them.
With the Harrier the heavier plunger rod should actually improve fps.
@BradleyPhillipsYT That's what I'm hoping for when using the Heavy darts to offset the fps loss, which Harrier likes the heavier darts thankfully
Do we need to change the metal plunger rod? Does it improve FPS or is it just for longetivity
?
Hey did you end up after a while having the blaster firing wrong ie lacking power every 4th or 5th shot after the upgrades and greacing as mine is and its getting annoying
Wonder what would happed if you remove the eletrical tape and see if it is any different?
Pretty sure there wouldn't be a difference, but other people online claim it boosted their fps by a lot when they covered the hole.
I see we have the same amazon screwdriver set
When I installed the OD 300m spring I couldn't even pull it back and you were doing it with 1-2 fingers, was I doing something wrong?
Guessing either you got a different spring, or didn't install it correctly. It should go down inside the buffer tube.
can you plsss do a review of the hl 015 honeybadger v3 gel blaster🙏
Do you happen to know how many degrees the BCAR is?
The string SCAR is 90 degrees, the BCAR looks to be around 10 degrees but I don't have a protractor.
First, btw great work brad!
Great vids man
Despite performance I actually prefer the look of my Seagull with the longer barrel
Hey Brad, just wondering what the best BCAR is for the Harrier/Seagull from your testing so far in terms of accuracy/consistency?
I purchased the 15 degree one from frontline foam and its been working great for me, a definite upgrade over the included worker SCAR
I would think a lighter pushrod to be better as it has less mass to accelerate.
i think my seagull may have an air seal problem
Any idea the source? I'd guess a damaged o'ring.
Or not enough lubricant.
Durex? 😅
th-cam.com/video/tlF4fdPajOE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U6MKJG2ZvwJlO7Dk 👀 😂
Can’t believe there’s a hole in the plunger tube. I didn’t even look.
I asked Worker about it and they said in testing they encountered vacuum loading without it. They must be priming their blasters faster than most people do.
Argh, ordering the metal plunger from France isn’t worth at all 😅
Id still reccomend leaving that little hole on the plunger tube just to avoid any vacuum loading, but im not ya mum so ya dont have to
I think it would only become an issue if you're priming the blaster incredibly quickly
@@BradleyPhillipsYT sometimes massed rounds is better than a single tag.
My Prime is destroyed...the plastic.....so metal is better ❤

Would also need to figure out a way to shoot them. A blaster made for that size, plus magazines to suit.
@@BradleyPhillipsYT just a barrel change, newly designed magazines, and internals for a smaller shorter dart

second!!
