1000 Mile Mark at the Nerf Single-Shot Workshop


1000 View Mile Mark at the Nerf Single-Shot Workshop

My apologies for not posting recently.  More Rival News to come.
I was excited on May 17, 2018 when I looked at the stats page to find that our viewership had gone from about 100+ when I re-started the blog, all the way to the 1000 view mark.  (1017 to be precise.)

I wanted to give a quick thank you to my viewers for helping to keep this blog going by viewing.  We have gone from a few views a month in September and October, to 2-3 views almost every day in May!  Sometimes, as many as 5 views a day, which I never expected to happen!

I look forward to the future of nerf with all of you!  And speaking of which, we have some nerf Rival news in the post following this one! – T.N.C.

MY IDEAS OF THE BLASTER:
                The blaster is a mini power house, but we are going to get into that later.  Lets start with the basics:
                Released in the first vortex wave release, and 1 of 7 blasters, the proton has received 2 paint jobs:  The original, and a white recolor.  The white recolor looks sweet in my opinion.  Picture posted to the right.

Nerf Blast from the Past Review: Nerf N-strike Elite Stryfe


Nerf Blast from the Past Review: Nerf N-strike Elite Stryfe (includes Elite XD & Modulus)

MY IDEAS OF THE BLASTER:

The blaster is widely known as one of the best blasters for modifying along with the Longshot and Nite-finder.  The Stryfe is nice for beginners, because it has a simple internal operation platform.

The handle is very comfortable.  The trigger pull is also rather easy.  The blaster is nice and compact and can be used as a side-arm on heavier loadouts.  This blaster may very well have the most kits released for it, and there are MANY different parts, kits, and upgrades that can be purchased for this blaster.

Official Announcement:


Official Announcement:

I kind of hinted before that I sell nerf blasters, but I now want to openly announce that I sell nerf blasters.  If you are interested in purchasing any, a link is providing to Basement Brigades eBay store.  I sell blasters and such under the nerf section.
Wanted to let you know in case you were interested.
Also, I have been thinking about how I want to structure things in my blog.  I know I want to stick with modifications, modified blaster reviews, and some reviews, but I don’t have enough time / money / permission to review a lot of brand new blasters.  However, my reviews are rather popular.  I may start talking more about modification relevancy, but I want YOUR opinion.  After all, you guys, the readers, are who I write this for.  Should I post more videos?  Mods? Or reviews?  Please let me know in the comment’s below.  Let me know in the comment section below.  Feedback is appreciated and thank you in advance!

Nerf Review: Modified Nerf Mega Cycloneshock


Nerf Review: Modified Nerf Mega Cycloneshock

GENERAL INFO:
Modifications: AR Removal, Dart Post Removal, Trigger Lock Removal.

MY IDEAS OF THE BLASTER:
Modified Cycloneshock for sale as of: 3/22/18
This blaster had a problem with varying ranges, so I decided I would take out the AR, as that is what was causing the problem.  Unfortunately, it means dryfiring is dangerous, but at least the blaster fires more consistantly now.  Good darts fire somewhere around 45-55 feet.  Not as good darts still fire around 30-35 feet.

Not much more power was achieved from this mod.  I need an upgraded spring to do so.

RANGES:
50 feet flat on average.  Angled shots were not recorded.

ACCURACY:
Just what you might expect from a mega blaster…terrible.

Come soon mega accustrike…come soon.
