Upcoming Blasters and Products

Yeah, I picked one up from ihobby.
@ 15 percent off, I paid around $170 ish, from memory.
I posted a little mini-review , around here…

It’s what you expect for that price point, about 160-180;fps…
Small mag empties in 2secs…

Fun little quirky item…!!

Yeah… that caught my eye.

Might not be much of a performer out of the box but I’m a big fan of CZ anything. :wink:

New AR15 blaster from X-Force. Based on the Maxim PDX. Seems to be the same build as the SLRs, but shorter.

$750 for the Intervention, and apparently needs basic modification to get to 170fps…

I am no longer mad about only having 20 slots in my safe :laughing:

I guess 12kg of steel costs a bit.

Maybe next,…is a gel soft RPG7 launcher…

20kg of metal…to fire one gel…:joy:

Could be like those Strella/AT4 launchers that use the 40mm shells.

Although I am curious how some of the 40mm gels, from the likes of Ali, would fair in a launcher

I respect that the manufacturers and X-Force are being honest.
This isn’t a field or game play blaster……it’s pretty much a wall hanger for the collection.

BUT…… this doesn’t negate mad bastards like ourselves from modifying into a serious performer, but the basic retail price is insane for what the customer receives OOTB :frowning:

Transparency is great, but yeah $750 for something that’s only really ever be used as a wall hanger is a bit on the nose.

I had one of those Hanke 98k’s that hit harder than that without being modified.

I’d be interested to see if a larger hardened gel would be any better for things like rifles

Posted today, I guess for those who don’t want to drop the $$$$ on the gas one :joy:

Replaceable barrel for short nerf darts too, cause china

Not too shabby at 220fps on gels…… but would imagine that there’s most likely upgrades that can be purchased to really make these things perform :sunglasses:

Some of the nerf stuff coming through.,hit way higher fps and is half the price.
The only difference is the colour
Don’t get me wrong I still like the blasters for there replica looks but the price’s are out of hand.
I have been buying nerf for a while now and modding them even did a nerf day in the park in Brisbane.
Both kids and adults running around with nerf g-ns screaming and laughing.
No one got arrested
They keep the fps down to under 150 as kids as young as 5 play.
These kid are like little navy seals
That take it seriously fully decked out in Camo and body armour.
They are hard to hit as it’s like trying to hit a chicken on crack
But it a laugh

It’s a shame that buggy isn’t big enough to house one of the kids… it’d make an awesome tactical. :joy:
