The first picture was literally ONE find! The rest are just random grabs. Goodwill has been VERY good for the arsenal 😁 3 giant war chests and growing still! Not all of them are amazing, but at only a few bucks each it makes my son happy, and keeps me active running around the yard with him!

WIP Introducing Joyeuse, a Mag-In-Grip, Pump Action Springer.

Thumbnail
gallery
66 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I've spent the past few months working on Joyeuse, a Caliburnoid Mag-In-Grip springer design that uses 31K magazines (or Nightingales with minor modification. At this point, design work for the blaster is complete and I will be moving on to printing a prototype soon, then sending the files and BOM to some Beta Testers.

Joyeuse is named for the mythical sword of Charlemagne, hinting at it's inspiration, while being something completely new.

Joyeuse is, like I said, a Caliburnoid springer. I'm a huge fan of Caliburns, but they are a bit too powerful and a bit too bulky for some people. Joyeuse keeps the same 6 inch plunger draw length and K series springs, while moving to a smaller 1.21 inch inner diameter plunger. It's still has insane plunger volume and should be able to hit 300+ FPS, but also run reliably at 150FPS.

It's pictured here with a 18 inch barrel, and it's about 6 inches shorter than a comparable Caliburn with the same barrel. It's also important to note much of that length is in it's length of pull, meaning Joyeuse should be a very flickable and snappy blaster.

Let's go over some basic features of Joyeuse:

1) Self Tensioning Clamshell design
2) Low Hardware Cost (Below $30 in net cost!), using only commodity hardware
3) Bearing Assisted Prime
4) Quick Swap Springs
5) Quick Swap Barrels
6) Ambidextrous Push-Foreward mag release (Similar to Ruger P Series Pistols)
7) Flat Sides for your first layer skinning pleasure!
8) Flared Magwell for easy swaps

Like I mentioned, Joyeuse takes printable 31K magazines, which are, IMO the best slim-angled mags out there. They are also printed mags so it's an easy magazine to adopt if you've only run Talons in the past. Nightingale mages should work just fine in it if you add the 31K/magazine catch. I will be sharing the files and BOM as soon as beta testing is complete.

With all that being said, please feel free to give feedback on the design!

Questions + Help Doom Cannon spring swap

Post image
2 Upvotes

Howdy, all! I got my Doom Cannon last week, and despite it unfortunately being a grey trigger, it's tons of fun regardless.

Ordered some springs recently, and I was wondering if these'd work fine for the blaster. These are 2.0 x 25 x 100 mm springs.

They haven't arrived yet, so I might as well ask now before I crack the sucker open to perform the swap.

I'll be wrapping Teflon under the O-ring and will eventually print the dead space filler too.

I put an Xtreme Blastzooka inside a Fortnite TS with a functioning internal magazine. It could use some prettying up, but it’s fully functional.

FPS: no idea, but significantly higher than stock. It’s not a sealed breach though, in order to maintain the internal mag capacity

Questions + Help Can I please have some suggestions :3

I have recently gotten back into the foam fray after yearsssss of absence, and have quickly fallen in love with the new X shot stuff! I was just wondering if there was a good full dart companion to the Piston Pump? Sinxe at the moment I have my ol reliable hammer shot (it’s the OG i had and i luckily still have) alongside these two beauties, and the clip mania but it seems to jam quite a bit :( so I’m looking for a fun replacement so I can still make use of these four mags, since on my searches I only find pump style’s that take full darts, which I’m wanting to get at some point, but later on, Sinxe I already one on the way (my gf is painting me a rough cut) any suggestions would be appreciated!!! (Budget is around 100 bucks)

TLDR just looking for a good semi auto or full auto/full dart suggestion!

For just £9 I managed to find an in box Ghost Ops Evader (Which for a long time has been one of my most wanted stock flywheelers!

I couldn't quite see when buying it, but I was fully prepared for the battery tray to be in a corroded state. To my surprise however, not only was the battery tray fine but the demo batteries in there still work!!

Just need to find a good stock for this bad boy and it's ready to go!

I got the Boxer Pro and wasn't happy with a few things. The muzzle looked odd to me. The stock looked good, but wasn't long enough. These are a few non-destructive modes you can do. The picatinny buffer tube and adjustable stock should work on anything.

Completed Build bubblegum slynx

Post image
30 Upvotes

didnt like the original brown colour scheme of my slynx so i got it reprinted using the skeletonised fileset, also changed my riser because the previous one added quite a bit of weight

friend ran out of cyan midway through the print so theres some pink on the magwell, feel it turned out pretty good tbh, the cyan for the stock is a little diff than the cyan on the grip and receiver because i was lazy to get those parts reprinted

the only changed parts from deathtrees remix are the stock, spacer and magwell. yes i know the receiver has no thumbscrews, i forgot slynx thumbscrews wouldnt work in the lynx

back to a pink colourway at last, an all gold lynx, while nice felt a little tacky, ill have to rebuild that when ive got the time

So far, there is only a bolt-action, but a break action double or quad barrel, and a revolver would be nice. And maybe tube feed or stripper clip-fed

Post image

I had never heard of nor seen these before! The way he's packaged seems to imply there may be others in a line? He's a wind up, animated zombie figure. The intent being, crank him up, he walks around and you blast him! The instructions on the back claim you get 25 whole seconds of action. Sure, likely aimed at a youth market, but I couldn't pass him up for $5. Curiously, all the ones on the shelf, the bubble was coming unglued from the backer card. Nerf branding, but made by Wilder Toys from Canada, dated 2025.

Finished and tuned my bespoke MHP Vulture Winchester 1886 Deluxe design. No chrono but it consistently puts darts through an Amazon shipping box at 25ft.

Printed entirely in PETG with the details printed using a 0.2mm nozzle. PETG is pretty finicky but I'm satisfied with how it came out.

You'll need to print and assemble the 1886 blaster from methanejuice to complete the build.

Questions + Help What good blasters can i get for indoors

4 Upvotes

So i am recently coming back into this hobby since now i have my own money and hopefully my parents wont kill me for buying blasters (they think its for kids) and so i was wondering about what blasters i could get , and aside from the standard thrifted nerf blasters i was thinking to get some dart zone blasters like the aeon pro or stryker plus some xshot pro half length dart blasters to have a more standard platform that uses the same half length dart mags and is more unified and nicer to play with (since nerf darts miss half the time even if the aim is good). I saw that these blasters are very powerful though, im scared to hurt myself or our friends (we always wear eye pro its more of a airsoft style welt i worry about) are they too powerful for indoor battles? I know some offer softer springs but im scared to break something while opening up the blaster
