Would you consider getting yourself a Spring Thunder and why/why not? Let me know! 5 Nerf Blasters under $15 you should buy - check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/LY_LHcG8z0s/v-deo.html
I would still pick a Colonal Wasp FireFly. Cheaper and higher capacity along with a 300 fps when firing a half dart. Also can fire 4 50 cal foam paintballs.
Welcome to the spring thunder club! Definitely a lot to this blaster and mine has seen many changes/improvements before coming into its own. That sniper barrel with singled half darts can do 240 fps on mine...thanks for the shoutout!
2:39 One reason it may be so loud is because you are dry firing it. I suggest (even when you are only showcasing the shell ejection) to load it so it does not dry fire. Not only will it reduce sound but will maintain your blasters well-being
I'd love to own one of these if it weren't for three things: 1. The price. I'm willing to spend a lot of money on Nerf stuff, but $185 for a single blaster that doesn't even come pre-assembled is too much. 2. Having to cut down Mega darts. From what I've heard, they're not cheap. And last I checked, money doesn't grow on trees. 3. Its firepower. I do appreciate good performance on a blaster, but it shoots a bit too hard for my liking. I play indoors a lot, and I don't want to risk denting the wall or breaking someone's skin with a Nerf dart.
The concept is really cool however and the practicality of using it out in the field having to constantly pick up the shells doesn't seem all that great. Super cool concept though!
I like the spring thunder tho :D That was my fav shotgun typed gun in nerf's history I know all the shotgun names: Winchester Remington 870 Spas 12 Double barreled shotgun Scattergun And even more
There’s a new shell ejecting shotgun that is even bigger and the shells are even bigger but it’s more easy to build together. Check out Valour’s blasters sobek review
Am i the only one here who thinks nerf should make a fallout 4 blaster series? I meant fallout new vegas cuz it would be cool to see the red glare from the game as a nerf rocket launcher.
1:58 I would point out the spring thunder outright isn't meant for a younger demographic. There's an explicit warning in the documentation for it that the bolt slamming down on your finger is can be strong enough to injure it. This is definitely meant to be a big boy toy.
I feel like there are two kinds of custom nerf guns: 1. War guns designed to be the most OP in a nerf war. Big clips, half-length darts, full auto battery powered. 2. Gimmicks for fun. Fun designs, and shotguns.
buzz bee toys had a double barrel blaster that ejected the shells with a spring when opened. i think all their blaster that used shells had an ejecting feature actually, including the lever-action rifle blaster.
It might be messing up because you were shooting left handed. Even if a miner difference it would still be enough to move the shell over a little from gravity and stop the chambering; that could also correlate to the ejecting issues. My main theory for this is that in other reviews the right handed shooters either didn’t mention it, or if they did, they didn’t experience as much of it.
Now that the Hyper Series is coming out soon, maybe we can get shells for the spring thunder that can fire a bunch of hyper rounds, probably 10-15 if them in a shell
I run a 3d printing business, the vendor needs to use better filament, definately something better than PLA for production parts. I suggest PETG or even carbon polycarbonate
Very cool setup. I can’t really justify EVER spending over $50 for a blaster, but for people with the expendable cash, good on them! My X Long hitting 271fps for $60 kind of ruined 3D printed blasters for me 😂
I used to have a shell ejecting airsoft shotgun (APS CAM870 Police version, MK.1), and it had feeding issues too occasionally. One thing I noticed that helped with it was pushing the pump forward with speed, if you pushed it too slow, that's when I got most chambering issues. Also from the ergonomic standpoint, the rail at the rear needs to go. There's no purpose for one there, and might end up hurting your cheek with it there.
The best way to load a shotgun is rack the pump back so the chamber is exposed, load it directly into the chamber and rack it forward, then load normally
doesnt make sense, youre using wrong ammo or your extractor in the chamber is bent. the only time a shell doesnt eject is when you pump back too slow and without force.
The argument for its shorter distance in performance that can be said the same for a real shotgun: It’s a shotgun. Shotguns are not rifles, both assault and sniper, they’re made for more close-quarters combat in mind. I suspect that having a gun that has spread in small close corridors or locations being much more effective than a rifle, thanks to getting the opposition in a surprise shot. That said, the Spring Thunder is more of a niche blaster. If anything, you’d be buying it because of your play-style requiring multiple targeting in a single shot. Also, it’s fun to use but expensive to import (it costs close to £70 on shipping alone). I guess the versatility of having multiple ammo types for one gun massively does give you an advantage, but it falls flat outside of Rival rounds (which I tend to see more like shotgun slugs anyway with the casing) due to the aforementioned low distance. Just something I wanted to type here, mostly to satisfy my taste for function-first blasters.
Basically, the closest to the Nerf Halo classic shotgun, if it wasn't made by Nerf, of Course, I can almost hear the classic sound effect with every shot.
I like how you talk about the sound, but can you let us hear all the noises the gun makes so we can get an idea of what to expect. Sometimes blasters can be a lot louder than I expect from the prime to loading to firing and it would be nice to know what times I could comfortably use blasters without annoying anyone. Plus its Gun ASMR that would be awesome. But good video with a lot of details. Edit: That might have been confusing so to avoid any confusion, I would just think like doing all the actions with the blaster but at full volume without any commentary and show all the sounds it makes i.e. rattles, prime sounds, loading sounds, firing sounds but at its full volume (and maybe like a decibel screen, just an idea)
I know someone has probably already said this, but the ejection and feed issues are quite common with left-handed shooters using right-handed pump-action firearms, I would assume that the same issues would carry from real steel to nerf. That said, I could be completely wrong.
I think most of the jamming issues were due to your left hand grip as it slightly angles the gun away from the ejection port. A right handed user most likely wouldn't have that issue.

Sheeesh that song bussing, lol 0:00
I can’t get over the fact that it looks like the mastiff from apex legends. They’re almost identical

Winchester
Remington 870
Spas 12
Double barreled shotgun
Scattergun
And even more
The Spring Thunder is my favorite gimmicky blaster. Great video as always :).
thanks!

Same lol
theres acctually a shell catcher atachment that you can buy on frontline foam
Yeah me too
@Razvan DRM haha it can’t eject shells
Also get a real gun like bruh
Honestly I like the way that the blaster jams because I like reloading things and I also like seeing jams and fixing them

There's also a b&k shell which fires a boomco dart and a regular dart

Big Iron plz
I did nerf wars in college like 10 years ago and I feel like I barely missed out on a real revolution in the hobby with the advent of 3D printing.

Everyone: “The spring thunder is the only nerf shell ejecting shotgun”
Trilogy: imma end this man’s whole career
The "boom co reloading simulation" and the intro were great! Nice video!
'Oly bread that thing SLAPS
imagine an custom double shotgun with ejecting shells and looks like the super-shotgun from doom feels like?
This is so sick I would have loved this as a kid and being able to show it off

1:40 dude blinks after shooting and pumping the NERF GUN lol
That intro was genius
Thank you lol!
I cant belive the og shotgun creator made another
I like the inclusion of the criticism of the sound, my hearing isn't too sensitive but harsh and clicky noises does irritate them.
Solid review.
legitbread:the only shell ejecting shotgun

Underrated af
Love the paint job
buzz bee toys had a double barrel blaster that ejected the shells with a spring when opened. i think all their blaster that used shells had an ejecting feature actually, including the lever-action rifle blaster.
Shellington should release a shell type that houses Hyper rounds.
That start though🔥🔥
I'm a lefty but shoot righty, so you are the only person on UA-cam I have seen to shoot left
It’s probably best for cqb games
that jam in the start

My main theory for this is that in other reviews the right handed shooters either didn’t mention it, or if they did, they didn’t experience as much of it.
Shotgun ejection shouldn’t be affected by that.
The reload is satisfying
Kinda gives me Mastiff vibes, they’re probably inspired of the same kind of shotgun.
when holding the gun hold it sideways so the shells eject properly that comes with any shell ejecting gun it is just gravity
2:11
There is a pump grip for larger hands. It is very comfortable.
Now that the Hyper Series is coming out soon, maybe we can get shells for the spring thunder that can fire a bunch of hyper rounds, probably 10-15 if them in a shell
Keep up with your great work legit
Thanks!

Not gonna lie I laughed when he just used a Google image of a boomco dart when he was putting the boomco dart into the shell
I can't wait for shells that support hyper rounds, more at once hopefully
if you want a cheap shell eject gun, the air warriors rapid tek ejects extremely well, and is lever action.
just bought this, im so excited for when it arrives
if regular nerf guns had a shell ejection function i'd actually buy them
I used to have a shell ejecting airsoft shotgun (APS CAM870 Police version, MK.1), and it had feeding issues too occasionally. One thing I noticed that helped with it was pushing the pump forward with speed, if you pushed it too slow, that's when I got most chambering issues. Also from the ergonomic standpoint, the rail at the rear needs to go. There's no purpose for one there, and might end up hurting your cheek with it there.
This is the Doom 3 Shotgun of the nerf world
My brother had a cool break action shell shotgun knockoff that would be cool to mod into something like this
The best way to load a shotgun is rack the pump back so the chamber is exposed, load it directly into the chamber and rack it forward, then load normally
the ejection "jamming" is normal for an actual shotgun/gun
Not at all a common issue for me.
doesnt make sense, youre using wrong ammo or your extractor in the chamber is bent.
the only time a shell doesnt eject is when you pump back too slow and without force.
looks like something right out of Destiny

I Think the Hyper ammo could be really usefull to make Shotguns
Man, i really want a flywheel powered, lever action fed blaster with the shell system
Why lever action but flywheel?
Looks a little like a mastiff shotgun from Apex Legends
When my friend got this in a nerf war and I'm his teammate and standing on his right:
Those random wood carving channels that make a shell ejecting shotguns:
*Well, mine doesent cost that much*
Basically, the closest to the Nerf Halo classic shotgun, if it wasn't made by Nerf, of Course, I can almost hear the classic sound effect with every shot.
Just ordered there levergun off the website can’t wait to get my hands on it
if i get one of these i would probably have the ejection point on the left
i dont want the shells flying into my right arm
My friend had a shell ejecting nerf gun. It was a very old model. Back in 2015. It was not custom either.
For the ejecting, I suggest you move the blaster to the right when ejecting the shell so its guaranteed for the shell to come out
Or they can fix the design on their $200 plastic toy gun.
@@ZSmith-yy4lv That too

5:36 dude its a shotgun but good content! Might buy! Keep it up
It’s like he nerfed a Remington 870. Lol
Me: seeing it jamming with the shells
My brain:you just got jammed
Thanks! I will look into getting one to have some battles with friends and family!
I know someone has probably already said this, but the ejection and feed issues are quite common with left-handed shooters using right-handed pump-action firearms, I would assume that the same issues would carry from real steel to nerf. That said, I could be completely wrong.
This is an interesting explanation! I wonder if anyone else knows the answer to this
finally, a realistic nerf shotgun.
give it time it will probably be the next nerf gun requiring a weapons licence in Australia
I think most of the jamming issues were due to your left hand grip as it slightly angles the gun away from the ejection port. A right handed user most likely wouldn't have that issue.
honestly i think the shells jamming in the chamber makes it more realistic
Have fun picking up the shell in th field.
I own at least 3 real shotguns but goddamn do I want this thing.
Hope this could fire multiple darts in one round.
*Trilogy DS-15:* Am I a joke to you?
This is the closest we can get to a realistic shotgun.
Ah toast here we go again
I really wanted this gun when I watched coops review on it but then I saw the price and I was 😳
If you want a shell ejecting nerf gun you can buy the nerf trilogy DS-16
It makes me think of Adventure Force shell ejecting guns combined with nerf
Man you haven't seen battlefield V shot gun reload like open the chamber load one shell and the load from the bottom
There's also a metal/plastic (maybe polymer?) chinese nerf shogun that I really wanted to buy but was pretty darn expensive.
Kinda reminds me of the Mastiff from Titanfall.
I used to have a boom co god they were so good
Great, Now i want to make a 3d printed r-301
Need a shell catch bag!
