Nerf N-Strike Jolt (Blue Version) - Plunger Tube Internals

Note:

- To disassemble the  plunger parts, just use a flat head screwdriver to pry and separate the metal rivet piece from the plunger head and rubber padding, then use a pair of pliers to twist the metal rivet piece off the plunger rod.

 - To replace it back, just reverse the process (make sure the rubber padding is positioned back properly). Twist the metal rivet back into position. At the final point, just use a hammer to tap it back into place.

Elite Foam Darts - Comparison & Internals Guide!

This guide will look at the differences between the new Elite foam darts and the older Streamline foam darts.

Weight comparison between both foam darts:

The Elite foam dart is noticeably lighter at 1.0 grams, while the Streamline foam dart weighs in at a heavier 1.3 grams.

Here is a cross-section comparison of both foam darts:

The Elite foam darts have a much shorter tip stem, which is lighter and shifts the tip weight further forward within the foam dart. This helps it to achieve better balance and improved range.

Aluminum Longshot Internals!

NerfSG Forum modder Zinv recently got a full set of aluminum Longshot internals custom fabricated and i had an opportunity to check out the setup...

The entire boltsled is made of one solid piece of precision machined aluminum.

Aluminum catch plate.

Full aluminum plunger head, plunger rod and plunger end-cap.

The aluminum parts are strong, yet lightweight... ideal replacement parts for modded Longshots.

For more information, contact Zinv at the NerfSG Forum.

Nerf Elite Rampage Internals - Quick Preview!

With the Nerf N-Strike Elite Series rapidly building keen interest amongst the Nerf community, many enthusiasts have also been curious...

How did Nerf improve the spring powered Elite blaster models? Did they retain the reverse plunger system or did they re-design it with another type of plunger system?

Here is your answer!

Yes... Direct Plunger System!

Note that the units i've had a look at might be different from the final production versions. Therefore, this not a full review on them yet, just a preliminary insight into the new internal design.

This photo shows the plunger rod in the primed position (with the spring removed).

Plunger rod, spring and catch removed from the casing. The plunger catch point is situated just behind the plunger head.

Here is a view of the plunger system from the back in un-primed position (left side in the photo) and without the plunger rod (right side in the photo). The bolt which pushes back the plunger head and rod during the priming action can be seen at the front of the plunger tube (similar to how a Nerf Longshot works).

Spring plunger design comparison between the Nerf Raider reverse plunger system (top in the photo) versus the Elite direct plunger system (bottom in the photo).

Spring plunger size comparison between the Nerf Longshot direct plunger system (top in the photo) versus the Elite direct plunger system (bottom in the photo).

Kudos to Nerf for listening to their fans and improving the designs on their new blaster models, they have done an excellent job.

The new Nerf N-Strike Elite Series is indeed shaping up to become a hot favorite amongst Nerf enthusiasts! :)
