X-Shot

I can now fully that without a doubt, I have taken ownership of my own RIVAL Challenger, and X-Shot PRO Longshot. Any thoughts?

The moment I laid eyes on the Piston Pump was the most important day of my life. But for Zuru, it was Tuesday.

X-shot used to feel like a cheap nerf ripoff

Now nerf feels like a cheap x-shot ripoff

The predator TK-3.

It doesn't even have a page on the wiki, for good measure.

It is basically a worse nerf triad

Ok fine.

It is way too tiny.

The rotating drum you have to manually rotate which is annoying

It launches darts like 3 meters

It has 3 dart capacity

Just useless and hard to prime

Just get the triad or even the trio if you want this

Eariler today I did some digging and found X shot "Lyte Swords". Does anybody know anything about this thing? If so, please comment.

Excel Version:

The three below look fairly recent, were these always a thing?

Basically, I was just plinking around with it (I had only gotten it less than a week ago), then suddenly when I was trying to reload it, something fell off, it was the little hinge that pushed the balls in the chamber, how do I fix this? I'm not usually one to opening up my blasters, so please help me here.

Yeh sorry @SirMikay if this is a rip off but your recent post got me thinking about apex legends and cus why not.

I thought of this weird Chinese half dart pistol which is styled like the RE-45 from the game.

Dart Blaster

RE-45

I would also say this X-shot gel blaster thing looks the most like a R-301 but that gel blasters, which are lame but yeh.

HPG-700 gel blaster

R-301

I can’t think of any other nerf blaster that look like weapon from apex, do you know any? Also I’ve never played Titanfall and don’t know any weapons soooooo (proceeds to jump into a trashcan while everyone hates on me).

This lever action blaster is a better version of that Roblox bee blaster. It reminds me of something……………

Some random British store selling it for 15 pounds. https://www.thetoyshop.com/outdoor-toys/blasters/X-Shot-Skins-Lock-Blaster-by-ZURU/p/563535

The blaster

The box

the scattergun

Mmmmmmm gold

Who has the red version of the X-Shot Zuru Hawk-Eye? Cuz I have it but I live in Manila

I thought the "fake" rail looked like it might be able to hold something, and sure enough a red dot sight can be attached.

This is the first I have seen of picatinny on a non-Pro blaster, and I believe the only X-Shot blaster to have one?

I know what you might say "Yo my meteor is da best blaster of all!1!!1!" And yes if yours works fine I believe you.

BUT as you may probably know,in coop's review of the orbit and meteor they were both terribly inconsistent,I know,it wasn't something which is in every chaos blaster,but IF it is....then you just lost money.

Today I got a respawn.....and it had it.

It was so inconsistent that it angered me so much that at this moment,it's no longer on my property.

Seriously,don't buy them you'll have chances of regretting it.

And why would you buy one anyway?

The meteor is just a worse Kronos and the orbit is a worse Artemis.

Maybe there's no rival in your country,ok.

Then why would you want rival?

Probably your neighborhood nerf wars are not competitive anyway,so why?

Just to waste some money?

If you already have one and it works fine I trust you,but don't buy another one,ok?

If you already have one and it performs like garbage,yeah just don't buy another one.

In conclusion,don't buy chaos blasters,there are higher than average chances you'll get a piece of hot garbage.

Hey there today me and my girlfriend decided to take apart the new xshot menace, theyre relatively cheap (£4-5) here in the uk, theyre very tiny but come apart so satisfying (take a hint hasbro!). its really easy to take apart, theres a melted bit of plastic keeping the air restrictor in place, just lightly shave it off or snap it off and youll be able to remove it, dont have a chronograph to test it but it has quite a snap and seems accurate thus far, i doubt ill get time to make and record a tutorial so i thought id share our findings here for you all. (hope someone makes a good spring upgrade for this lil thing, already packs a punch)

Also! its 100x better than the jolt, only downside is the handle is small even for small hands, however, the handle could easily be replaced as its a seperate part so just print a new one perhaps.

Happy modding!

(dont have any screenshots as we forgot to take photos sorry about that! id say the internals are like the nerf firestrike but even more basic) (still kinda new to nerf modding so sorry if i mess up my phrases anywhere)

Since X-Shot skins blasters have started poppiong out here and there, alongside with their new waffle darts, I think it has to be said that the name of the new darts are kinda dumb.

Air Pocket Technology darts? Not only it has a mouthful name, it doesn't even have any air pockets. I'd argue that Nerf's Elites, Buzz Bee's Long Distance darts or even X-Shot's very first darts had a some type of "air pocket" but the new ones are just waffles. They are hollow. Pockets have usually only one hole (or multiple tiny ones in case of mesh pockets), I'd tell Zuru that it should be renamed to sound, I dunno, more true to its shape or make them sound more catchy like "AirTec" darts.

Or just stick to the term "waffle" darts since it's already a simple enough name.
