I think this hits the mark a bit wrong. It's trying to be a shotgun like the Spring Thunder without the multiple shells. Not bad for the price though. I'm going to carry on saving for the ST.
Have you ever released the files to the shells you made? I just bought the extended barrel variant and I know for a fact 16 shells won't be enough since the fields I play in are tall grass, and I will lose them
Yes and no. They function similarly, but this is more of a rifle than a shotgun. The Spring Thunder still beats this on the versatility front with the different ammo shells.
I would probably use just 1/3 length darts so I could fit 2 inside. The shell size kind of ruins the point of having a shell-fed shotgun, but it is very nice nonetheless.
I'm not a fan of having to pick up and take care of shells, so even though I like shotgun styles that point realy turned me off them BUT after seeing those fps numbers I may change my mind. Thanks for reviewing this, most of us would not have had a chance to see it working otherwise.
I don't see why you'd ever use this instead of a Spring Thunder. The Firefly can only ever shoot 1 half dart at a time, which defeats the point of a shotgun, and makes having to manage shells a waste of time (which is a big deal). Not to mention that the Spring Thunder can use all relevant ammo types as well.
I think the point is that this is much smaller and hits pretty good ranges without the need of a sniper barrel add-on. I have both this and the ST and they will both serve different use cases for me
For the fun of it! Not everything has to be a top-tier, mag-fed behemoth. Sometimes it's nice to use something mechanically interesting to impose limitations on yourself to change your mindset. This is also great for LARP games imo
Message monkeemods or wasp. They'll be able to provide instructions. It is fairly straightforward though. If you don't want to risk it, you could send it to someone else for assembly and tuning. I might be able to if you'd be willing to compensate me for my time

![[REVIEW] A True NERF Tactical Shotgun! (The FIREFLY from Colonel WASP)](/img/n.gif)
Damn love the red. I love it! And I love the blaster lol.
Love the tint job bro :) also good meeting you in person at rags :)
Is that Powerglove I hear? Wonderful choice in background music regardless!

I feel this is a bit of a different beast to the ST
For me it's in the same space as other springers. I may still get one as it's only ~£30

For places that allow water gel. It had shells for watergel.. That would work more like a shotgun.
Could I please possibly get a link to the shells you designed, or a link to where I could buy more shells?
where can i get your files fotr the shells?
Awesome looks really good
makes me wonder if they will start making mini rival ammo for this.
IIRC this was originally built to be a gel ball shotgun
its like a cheap alternative to the spring thunder
Yes and no. They function similarly, but this is more of a rifle than a shotgun. The Spring Thunder still beats this on the versatility front with the different ammo shells.
@@ValTek_Armory Well people could still design alternative shells? Or just load gel balls in them or something.
I would probably use just 1/3 length darts so I could fit 2 inside. The shell size kind of ruins the point of having a shell-fed shotgun, but it is very nice nonetheless.
So not sure if you ever mention this Valour but is this blaster Injection molded, resin cast, or 3d printed? And same question for the shells.
All injection molded with some machined parts like the priming linkage
Nice slug thrower, Too bad it only takes half darts and not a variety of ammo like the ST, but then again, it's also cheaper and hits like a truck.
Definitely a different beast
Hey Valour so I just opened the link that in your description but I found out it out of stock. When will be back?
ROUGHFIRE i ordered mine last night 👍🏼👍🏼
@@stuartpascoe1380 you lucky you got one
ROUGHFIRE if you search now on monkee mods they have them. There is 2 listings I got the extended version
@@stuartpascoe1380 still out of stock
ROUGHFIRE oh shit sorry mate i must have brought last one
Is there any assembly instructions or is it just "here are the parts figure it out"
There's assembly instructions somewhere
@@ValTek_Armory Haha "somewhere..."
@@beanieteamie7435 on the website where you order the blaster.
Want someone to make a Remington 870 out of it
Wasp is working on that
I love the look of this, but I wouldn't want one though.

can it fire full lengths
If you single load it into the barrel
Valour's Blasters ah
Duude I'd want one- But shells are easy to lose.
Grate vid man 😁
Wait why am I hearing Zelda music in the background?
hopefully they make a lever action shell ejection rifle done right next
Heath Heil designed one, drac has a vid on it.
i can't seem to find it, can you point me in the right direction?
@@stealy9608ua-cam.com/video/70__BfrEBj0/v-deo.html Right here

@@ValTek_Armory Okay but like... Why use this instead of a Caliburn or talon claw?

This is like 25% the cost of a spring thunder and holds double the capacity and looks better.
Less versatile though
@@ValTek_Armory How? is it because it cant shoot multiple?
How do you build it I bought one for my son and it came with no Instructions
Message monkeemods or wasp. They'll be able to provide instructions. It is fairly straightforward though. If you don't want to risk it, you could send it to someone else for assembly and tuning. I might be able to if you'd be willing to compensate me for my time
When would they be able to provide said instructions
it wonderful
damn now we have sledgefire, buzz bee, trilogy, spring thunder, and now firefly shells
Oh yeah and also, maybe try loading in dart heads
Its only for single elite
So its not a shotgun shotgun
But its still a shotgun
Apfeltee aqt real steel shotguns fire single projectiles too so it is a “shotgun shotgun”
