    Wow... that was heart wrenching to see. I had such fond memories of the long shot as that was my little sisters primary back in the day. I wish I could but this but she’d be horrified to see how it was well... not improved on. And it’s selling for less then it originally did which means they cheapened out and cut corners for sure.

      @@meromute4016 Yep. The Icon version actually has a smaller plunger tube and a different spring. Funnily enough, it means it has higher stock FPS, but obviously once you mod, a smaller tube is a negative. At least it seems old parts and new mod parts can be fitted. I can't remember off the top of my head, but chances are you need to trim some support bits to get one of the old LS, or new mod tubes to fit. I'm fairly new to the hobby, and looking at getting an LS, tbh I'm just gonna get one of the Zombie Strike ones.

  • @Bannanawaffles2
    @Bannanawaffles2 Před 3 lety +11

    The issue I recall having with my stock longshot is with elite darts specifically - the shorter dart post in the elite darts compared to the original streamline darts causes the friction of the head to buckle down against the dart tooth in the longshot and causes them to jam against the inside of the barrel. Should be pretty evident if that is the issue though, as it usually damages the darts.

    • @Smaveric
      @Smaveric Před 2 lety +1

      This issue happens with original streamlines as well and exactly as you described. I have some used and never-been-opened streamlines and they all jam just as much as Dart Zone waffleheads and official elites. There is far too much friction on the dart tooth (if that's the name for the little door that helps push darts into the breech and slides down when ready to fire), so darts end up bent in the barrel until they spring back into place. You can actually hear the dart when it springs back. I confirmed this by putting on safety goggles and staring down the barrel while priming the blaster. Everything works normally until the dart tooth slides down and takes the head of the dart with it. It doesn't always happen, but it happens enough to make this blaster effectively unusable unless you baby it and wait for the darts to stop bending.
      My Deploy never jams no matter how quickly I fire it and it seems like its dart tooth is a little shorter. Maybe that's the culprit. I might end up cutting the Longshot's tooth a tiny bit or do something to it so the darts have enough space to settle without getting jammed up. I'm going to compare it to an older Longshot first to see if I can get it to jam in the same way and perhaps compare the mechanics.

    • @fckgooogle1000x
      @fckgooogle1000x Před rokem

      So is that why my Recon CS6 kept jamming and shredding darts?

    • @Smaveric
      @Smaveric Před rokem +2

      ​@@fckgooogle1000x Probably, though I think the shredding has something to do with the new foam that Hasbro started using with elites (speculation on my part). After further testing, old streamlines never get shaved or shredded in my Longshot. Anything post-Elite (Nerf, Dart Zone, etc) gets shaved sometimes, even the included elite darts. Somewhere around 5% of anything I put through my Longshot gets damaged. This happens with the ICON LS and older ones too, so it might be something inherent to the Longshot design.
      A quick fix for your jamming Recon, Longshot, or anything else like this is to put some chapstick or other sticky lubricant on the dart tooth. It instantly fixed the issue for me, but it starts coming back after around 100 darts as the chapstick gets worn off. It's not a permanent solution, but might be enough for some light battles or target shooting.

      @@narrowgauge0727 its because its still an old design with 0 improvements. This was not meant to be a modernized version, it was a nostalgia trip and for those who never saw it to see how far they have come. This design is super old and it honestly acts the same, for this gun you needed a Rhythm to get it to work properly, removing the front gave you actual velocity (something which is the only thing that might have improved with that long barrel i remember some darts just plopping out of the front), and had a weak second blaster. The only reason to get this one was because you either never had one and want to see what its like or you got rid of the one you had. That is the "Icon" series in a nutshell anything which actually stayed good would just get used over and over again (Volt, Maverick, most of the single shot blasters) till it got replaced by something better which it would see over and over again.

    If I may chime in, with being in Louisville, ky, it’s not much different than Columbus, OH. I felt the original long shot, including the first yellow incarnation worked fine with the original streamline darts but once you try and run Elite darts the performance drops. You may remember that part of the functional difference was the length of the stem behind the dart head. The breech was designed to time with the longer stem of the streamline darts but once you throw an elite dart in, the foam just behind the dart head flexes and collapses as you try and feed a dart into the breech.
