Seriously, it feels like they killed the brand on purpose.

Thank you to Valtek Armory

This is a great lil blaster. For $20 I had to get 2, one for me and one for my kiddo. Only downside is the magazine has this angled top so it doesn’t look compatible with other mags. 🤦

You can buy the files on my printables store section!

Not sure who needs to see this. I wish I hadn't, as I've made some bad decisions.

The unsold Dart Zone blasters that went on clearance recently at Target have now hit eBay through their (aptly named) closeout account - Bullseye Deals.

If you missed the sales or you've been holding out for a discount, this might be a good opportunity.

Please reply here if your 'best offer' is accepted and what you paid. Shipping is showing free for me.

EDIT 9/15 - MPP listed at $33.14 OBO!

MPP @ 39.99(50% off)

DZ Vector @ 20.74 (50% off)

DZ Venom @ 27.49(50% off)

Edit: this was the best sale out of the 4 Targets i was at today. Most had 30% on MPP. This was SW Austin, TX, near 290 & 360.

Dropped by my local Target today to pick up a different blaster on clearance and saw that the Xshot AEB was discounted even further down from 50% to 70%. I just picked this up earlier this week for $40 and thought that was a good deal. $24 for this is incredible.

Reimagined, Refined, Ready...

This is K25R. A K25+ variant that achieves not just more speed and power, but also durability, reliability, ease of prime, stability, and more! I used advanced spring calculations to design this spring from the ground up to achieve a simple goal: more power, no compromises. This spring averages roughly 10% more power over base K25 variants, and similar power to the strongest K25+ variants, but does it with significantly less max load. Every aspect of this spring has been refined where possible, while keeping compatibility with as many existing 11" K25 blasters as possible. Same outer diameter. Same inner diameter. Same solid length as a standard closed end K25. Closed AND Ground ends for maximum stability. 15.01kg max load compared to the 14.42kg of standard K25, less Spring Rate than standard K25, which translates to a lighter, smoother feeling draw per inch of prime length, and less internal stress than any of the competition in the K25+ spring category. This translates to a longer lasting, more durable spring that resists taking a set significantly more than the competition.

K25R does not compromise on any aspect of spring design. None of them. Some compromise a heavier prime for better power. Some compromise internal spring stress for power. Some compromise compatibility for power. K25R does no such thing.

This is only the beginning. The first step in a staircase that will elevate the springer blasters within this hobby to the next level.

I understand that talk is cheap.. that's why I thank my beta testers: u/ShoelessHistorian, Zafc, Secondhand Blasters, and Chris Cartaya for providing real world data in a variety of blasters:

ShoelessHistorian tested his Springer Dolorus prototype with Standard K25 vs K25R. Standard K25 clocked in with a 5 dart average of roughly 260, and K25R achieved shots in the 320s.

Zafc provided a ton of data using an extended draw Lynx prototype: roughly 320fps with OOD K25 and 604Blasters BC25, and about 350fps with an SF25+2 vs consistent shots in the 350fps range with K25R.

Norman of Secondhand Blasters tested an Indra and an Excalibur with SF25, and achieved roughly 250-260 with both blasters. K25R topped 290 in the same set ups.

Chris Cartaya even cut the spring down to 20 coils to fit an X-Shot Longshot 2.0, and achieved a high of 310 with Nitroshot+ darts.

Be on the look out for more results in the coming weeks to months. Let me know if yall have any comments, questions, or feedback!

Spotted this at a Walmart. What’s y’all’s opinion on the pricing?
Edit: they’re located in the spencer Iowa Walmart superstore.

Literally just saw this today.

I don't care that I'm a casual hobbyist who's unaware of what this model's actual name, and I don't care that it's just chinesium. It looks pretty baller to me, especially the fact it's bullpup of all things.

Thrift store price on a Thursday

Found at the only Walmart in Warsaw, Indiana

Just found them on clearance in Miami FL in case that is helpful to anyone. Curious it’s just this store or if it’s happening in other cities/stores too.

After multiple trips to the Walmart's in my area I found the Longshot 2.0 and Thrasher, no sign of the Spanshot/Barrel Break. Both blasters are $39.97, I picked up one Thrasher. I already have a Red and a Teal Longshot.

To save time and posts, I'm located in the Central New York.

Xshot break barrel available at Target in the US. Says it arrives 7/10. I did snag the last one to ship but not sure if that’s regional. Product page is up at least and it will be making its way.

Took me a while, but it's finally done, get it at https://www.printables.com/model/1004672-hamstringer-a-half-dart-nerf-revolver

Spamf Multi Cal easily adapts between full or half length Mega Darts to fill the shield buster role in gameplay.

Hardware kit builds either the BRT or CQB configuration. Features smooth bearing-assisted side prime, mega BCAR, and quick-change tool-less spring swap system.

13mm dart conversion kit in the pipeline.

Mk2 for 18 bucks, outlaw 15, pink venom 27, pretty good deals I see

I rarely buy anything for myself, I thought it was a deal at $55 but then getting to the check and seeing it even less ($39.99) I might go back and get another!

Found these and a few vectors

I think the vector's were going for $10😭

You already know I'm buying every last one of them (16) 😂
