Hello everyone,

With this update i want to let you guys know that i have finished the prototype of the mp18 blaster. Compared to the cad models there are some componets missing, i didnt include them since they dont serve a other purpose then decoration.

For this build I used the hardware kit from the sillybutts foxbat. With the spring that gets 155 to 160 fps. I bought the metric version hardware kit from akblaster mods.

If there are people that want to help with the beta build. It would be nice that they buy the foxbat hardware kit from out of darts. Because i believe that kit is not metric, correct me if im wrong. I believe a couple orings are a little different.

A couple of specs from this blaster

9 inch aluminium barrel

1,5 inch x 4 inch plungertube

Uses angled talon mags

Total lenght roughly 85cm

Just got my notification from DZ that my order is on its way and will likely be here by Wednesday. Guessing they decided to not wait any longer as I've seen some shops starting to post it on their shelves. Can't wait to hit the basement range with my son.

I’m trying to make the Ontos (RAVION remix) more powerful (red blaster).

I increased the cylinder (plunger tube) length by 5 cm, stretched the front part accordingly, installed a 60 cm barrel from ZWQ, and the spring remained at 30 cm — the same as in the regular version, since I didn’t increase the length of the blaster’s tail.

With a 28kg spring (OD14x1.8 – 62 coils), both blasters deliver the same 260 fps with heavy darts (equivalent to worker bamboo 1.2G).

Replacing the spring in the red blaster with a 33kg one (OD16x2.0 – 52 coils) yields only 280 fps with heavy darts.

I also have a Springer Perilous, in which the cylinder has the same length and diameter, and the spring is 30 kg (28 cm, OD26×2.5 — 28 coils) — and it shoots these same heavy darts at 320–330 fps.

Why is my Ontos, with a more powerful spring and the same cylinder, so much inferior to the Perilous?

I have a 3d printed breach that needed modifying the plunger tube, now after I assembled it the plunger tube it primed the first time I loaded it, but after trying to prime it the 2nd time it won't catch anymore, I even Installed the stock spring and it still won't prime.

just printed a brown(Body) Grey (Insides) Print but struggling to build in using PDF that came with the hardware kit so has any one seen a build video for it or be able to see where I am going wrong.

I am struggling to get the M5 nut into the lower Receiver it just does not seem to fit.

Could make it fit if i smacked it with a hammer but that may damage the lower receiver and need to re print it.

Have added a pic from the guide also a pic of my print incase it's something I am doing wrong.

So like I just noticed this noise from my x shot Longshot 2.0 and it’s like a part of the dart pusher… I think anyways I picked it up yesterday from Walmart and it wasn’t making this noise. If anyone has info that would be greatly appreciated!
