  • Dart Zone is absolutely destroying the competition this year, and what a competition it is! The Adventure Force Nexus Pro X was already contender for the best blaster of 2024, and yet here is the Dart Zone Max Stryker 2.0 to challenge it for that title. Another pump-action magazine-fed NERF primary, but with enough differences and unique features to make it tower above the rest!

      When DZ restocks their Bcar, wanna test if that fits on the Tomcat.

    Magazines only make sense if you already have a really big collection. This seems like the perfect way to get into the pro line, as you can just rely on the drum and if you buy the pistols and stuff now you can use the mags with it.

  • @domingoocho4374
    @domingoocho4374 Před měsícem +5

    I'm a proud owner of the first Max Stryker model. I modified mine a lot to keep up with the 3d printed blasters my friends have. I have used it for years, and I was thinking of replacing it. Right when I start looking for a new primary, this comes out. It hits harder than my modified stryker OUT OF THE BOX. It has a DRUM, where my biggest issue with the stryker was how many times I would have to reload my mags in some trench during a match. It has a SCAR barrel, which I was planning on buying separately for mine. It has a better stock for Iron sights, and It has an AR-style grip. On top of that it has Slamfire (I think the old stryker had it too, which I loved)
    I feel as if this blaster was custom-made for me, fixing all the issues I had with the previous one. I swear, dart zone is the GOAT!

    Slam fire is such a funny term. Us old guys call it an autotrigger on a paintball marker. 😂 It's great for intimidating the target, but you're probably not hitting anyone.

    • @Valandar2

      Slamfire is a term actually coming from the real steel world. It's first noted being used to refer to using it with pump shotguns.

      @anthonykent00 Před měsícem +5

      @lastwymsi Před měsícem +12

      Comes from old shotguns. Got the name because on older shotties you could just hold the trigger down and the hammer would never catch.
      If you "Slammed" the pumpgrip forward fast enough you could chamber the next shell before the hammer fell, letting you just keep pumping to keep fireing. Later it became more refined and an intended feature, and the Blaster Hobby picked up the term as well.

  • @Nuetral768
    @Nuetral768 Před 11 dny

    The gummy pull and push is there, but it's part of a system of redundant guides to reduce the prime locking from bending your wrist as you prime (pretty common for most people). My biggest gripe is that my scar SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED my accuracy with this blaster (lost way to much force, my nerf 2.0 jolt was out performing it). This scar issue wasn't there initially, instead it had a different issue... it was throwing my shots upwards by about 3-5 feet higher than I was aiming!!! The nitroshot darts are a tiny bit better accuracy than basic xshot reds, except that I used them in my outlaw and they came out scraped all to hell with reduced accuracy in outlaw now (will need to clean barrel later)... so comparability issues. The sights, yeah they don't hold worth crap but the front alone does set the height pretty well (general point of impact too). The great thing is that these sights fit perfectly snug and accurate on the longshot (which had the same issue), but haven't found any cross sights that work for this gun yet. I like the rear load feature but wish they would have just made the chambers more snug vs using a lever near the rear to add compression (as this can deform the darts and lead to poorer accuracy). Overall, I still want this gun to be as accurate as it was for Walcom (I'm a marksman style shooter, that's why I got it)... while it's still double the accuracy of an unmodified longshot it's still far from that (so I'm gonna hope I get a better scar or bcar when I buy the nexus pro x... till then I just got the maxim pro and less bullseyes but same spread, way better in many ways both in terms of performance and purchasing).

    To be honest you could carry a bunch of mags and once all are empty swap to the drum so you are now in scav mode to get darts back up. This would allow you to swap between faster reloads at the start and being able to scavenge for the drum.

    Happy Birthday Walcom, loved this video. I really hope we get more blasters in this line cause they look amazing and I would easily spend money on them.

    Late Happy Birthday to you!
    I skiped the Nexus pro X because I got the old Nexus, the Xshot Longhshot and the Harrier, but I think I will take this one, the drum makes the difference
