Great review for Captain Slug's Caliburn! If you were to try full-lengths, the ones that come with the Nexus Pro work pretty well. But as you said, half-lengths are where it's at. - Perry
I agree , though it is reasonable. Up until now he mainly ran NERF + DZ ( + whatever the hell ) blasters that were in the market for everyone. Though now I guess he's going more into the competitive / 3D printed nerf market ? I don't know. But it'll be pretty exciting to see like a Flypoint review from him.
@@subjectdei6869 I think the community made competitive/3D printed blasters will still be a rare review for him. I think he’s only gonna review them when they draw a lot of attention, and have a proven track record like the OOD Jupiter and The Spring Thunder. I’d guess the next community made item we see him review will be the OOD proton pack. Coop knows his audience, he won’t go to far outside of that comfort zone, but he has more power to give the creators exposure then anybody else, so when it does happen it’s awesome.
Slug is a great guy and a top designer in the hobby. However, his print quality can leave a bit to be desired (probably something to do with producing so many things so fast). I would like to see you give a Lynx a shot. I would suggest trying Silverfox Industries to purchase one.
Regularly inspecting you nuts is sound advice, both in foam flinging and health. Also: The Caliburn takes different power springs, so you can tune it to the FPS allowed at your games.
my favorite thing about the caliburn is how anything's you can do with it. personal, my build has an elongated brass barrel and a k-26 spring for ultra long range shooting but there are also people that have turned their caliburns into literal shotguns
Tip: If you rather like not feeling pain, you can easily change out the spring for anything roughly the same length and it will work just fine. The caliburn is meant to be HIGHLY modular, and you can even 3D print your own parts like I have if you really want to.
One thing Coop didn't cover is that the caliburn is a multi ammo platform. Remove three pins in the central block that houses the mag well and the whole thing will break in half, per Captain Slug's design. This is so you can swap over to a different front end to use either rival or mega. There's also an optional stock assembly that will let the stock extend about three inches/ 7 cm beyond the example model Coop had. As for those that don't want such a long blaster and are ok with half length darts only, I'd recommend the talon claw, which is a miniature version of the caliburn, shrinking the whole thing by about a third. This also has a bull pup option for fans of that. I've had and enjoyed the 788 version of the 14 inch caliburn that Coop was showing off, and it's 130fps performance was almost taylor made for HVZ play, and that 14 inch barrel (hence the name) sticks out just far enough pass the rest of the blaster after removing the standard muzzle for a SCAR barrel, which will make the blaster almost laser precise.
It’s challenging work, out of doors. And I guarantee you’ll not go hungry. Because at the end of the day, long as there’s two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead. Feelings? Look mate, you know who’s got a lot of feelings? Blokes that bludgeon their wife to death with a golf trophy. Professionals have STANDARDS. Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
I built mine almost 2 years ago and it is the greatest blaster ever. So much fun, so powerful, feels amazing, and it was great to print and assemble for a nerd like me. Great review coop!
@@dudepool7530 The Caliburn is the culmination of years of work by Slug. He basically invented the Half Dart (why we used to call them Slugs), he invented the +Bow, I believe he invented the hopper feed (making the first 100% DIY Repeating blasters). The Caliburn is a +Bow with a Magwell. For someone who did so much for this hobby, it really makes sense to call it the quintessential community blaster.
You can tune them down, with weaker springs and making the seals bad. I had a mate that tuned one down to just under 100fps for an event in a shopping center 😉
It's great to see you reviewing more community-made 3D printed blasters! I'd love to see a review of the Lynx by Orion Blasters and some 3D printed flywheelers like the Bulwark or Hummingbird. I have a feeling that you will buy a proton pack eventually so I can't wait to see your review on that too. Thanks Frank for everything you do and your amazing videos! 🧡💙
With a scar barrel and short length darts, this thing can and will hit people consistently over 150 feet away. Also, you should definitely get the metal reinforced milan coupler as that is the part that holds the entire blaster together. (I have broken quite a few milan couplers...)
Imagine this scenario: "I'm gonna shoot you once with a nerf gun, okay." "Okay. I don't really care, nerf guns don't really hurt that mu- *sees the Caliburn* WHOA WHOA WHOA HEY NOW!"
So nostalgic I remember building my PVC rainbows back in 2008 shit was wild. I used to think it could never get better. When elite came out I was so hyped telling all my boys at elementary school brooooo these thing shoot 75 feet of the shelf. And now we are here. Incredible!
Take it from my experience. Its impossible to be an adult in this hobby without a sense of humor. Because an adult with no humor, cant see the joy in a toy. That makes me a sad Dudepool...
Exactly. I once asked my friend if they wanted to go play nerf. We did, so they brought a stryfe, rapidstrike etc., but then I pulled out a modded retaliator that shot 100 fps. I had to change it for a different blaster later lol
An old sheet makes an excellent backdrop to shoot darts against, and you can mark it with a target so we know where you're aiming. You can hang it from a spring-loaded shower rail or similar device.
I bought my Caliburn 2 years ago when a was 13, best thing ever. You can use springs that go as low as rival, you can get 130, 180, 200's, and with a K14 300+.
There’s apparently a thing called “senior assassination” at my school where you have to shoot someone with a nerf gun outside of school, which is a little too up my alley. Normal kids: “I shot you with my jolt!” “No you didn’t” Me, loading waffle head darts into the chamber and zeroing my scope in: “don’t need to record it if the gun leaves a welt.”
Do u understand how the p90 magazine works? I think it could work with a rival but would be too complicated for an elite (the bullets are sideways in a p90 and have to be turned with a mechanism)
What about testing various alternative springs and measuring their respective, resulting muzzle velocities? I thought the ease of switching out springs was one of the main initial selling points of the Caliburn.
from the front cam you can't even see the darts exit the muzzle and btw we all love your videos and you r still making videos in these rough times keep it up
Man I haven't seen your videos in god knows how many years. Good to see that the content hasn't changed but uh.....um...... I'm sure nothing else changed during the past 5 years
