The reason why you couldn't look through the expandoblast sight is it's gone foggy do to age and a lack of internal cleaning. If you open and up and gave it a clean you could probably see through it. Also the extended barrel adds deadspace and makes the barrel floppy so it's less accurate. You can also improve the performance by putting a little bit of Teflon tape under the O-ring for the barrel and giving it and the plunger a relube. Or in another words it's a old Blaster that needs some TLC. Also the plunger tube is as big as the shell. Go watch Walcom s7's Tagback episode on it for more proof of its mod potential.

So, clear plastic, especially 20+ years old, will start to haze. My guess is the expandable blaster's scope was at one point clear, but then hazed over time. I have an original longshot, and the scope for that has been hazed for a few years now. It happens.

From memory, the Expand-a-Blast worked best with only the shoulder stock out. Extending the barrel introduced dead space into the system and killed what little range there was. The front grip was too wobbly to be worth using. However, the shoulder stock kept you from smacking the plunger rod into your shoulder and bending it. The sights could be looked through when new, but the plastic quickly clouded with age and scratches. Due to dart drop, they were only useful out to a range of four feet, anyway.
@ethanL337 2 жыл бұрын
The Expand-a-Blast was great for modifications back in the day. The plunger tube is almost the size of a soda can. Take out the gimmick barrel, replace with PVC, increase seal around plunger head and boom goes the dynamite. Also, the sticker alignment was because we had to put those stickers on ourselves! Many toys from that era didn’t come with the stickers attached. We got a sheet with all the stickers on it and a guide as to where they went

I even passed up a Secret Shot 2. Saw a 1995 crossbow for around 350 bucks once as well.

I recall a nerf gun that had a long tube that held foam balls, but not the soft ass ones of today, it was pump action kind of, using air pressure from “pumping it” to fire, and it was beastly, it could leave welts if you got hit right. 90’s Nerf guns were very strange in some cases, but that was the 90’s they had a bunch of weird designs for things just because they looked cool.

In 2001 I bought a 24 round full auto Nerf SMG that was being discontinued. All darts were mounted on individual tubes on a rotary mount. You'd pump it a few times to fill the expansion chamber and then send them all flying twenty to thirty feet within five seconds or less. It was a mess to clean up; but certainly one of Nerf's better models.

I have loved Nerf from a young age and that hasn't stopped for me even in my 20's. I remember 2 nerf guns that I would die to shoot again. The first was my Maverick Rev 6, it was a 6 shot revolver style blaster. That for me was accurate up to around 20-25' and never jammed. My other favorite was the Vulcan EBF 25, now I hated motorized blasters but this one was belt feed via motor bit also had the manual primer bar. That thing was thee best, it had plenty of power to shoot straight for a long ways and I even used it a few times as a confetti gun, much to my moms dismay.
@Kojo2047 2 жыл бұрын
The expand-a-blast did have a "usable" scope (although, c'mon, it's a nerf gun so what is that scope gonna do?), but I think the one you were testing has just not aged well and gotten cloudy/scratched over the years. I also seem to remember the range on it was decent for nerf guns of that era. It's possible that the plunger on that one has also weathered poorly and just doesn't deliver the powerful blast of air it once did. You could feel how strong that spring was, for a scrawny kid when those were new that spring was HARD to pull back and lock in place!
@hereigoagain04 Жыл бұрын
Expand-a-Blast: 1st, fire it in pistol mode. 2nd, brass it, upgrade the spring,and reinforce the shaft, plunger connection, & trigger catch. 👍🏼 Saw someone onetime had created a breech on theirs, as well. I just ramrodded it. Fun!!!

Did you know? The nerf fast blast,a pump action airjet nerf blaster secretly has a spiritual successor called "Mako RC-6".But unlike its secret predecessor, it's a direct-prime-action blaster and instead of a airjet pump, it's airjet pump is replaced by a shoulder stock and a 6 dart storage,also to fire the alpha strike mako,there is a prime handle in the back of the nerf gun which is located ontop of the shoulder stock.

@JamesThames1987 2 жыл бұрын
When you said Secret Shot II you were showing the Secret Shot I. Now, for range you need a 1993 Nerf Arrowstorm. This thing is the absolute best of the 90's. It fires six arrows at semi automatic speeds and can also fire vintage mega darts/suckers. When you load one of those you will get close to N-Strike ranges. Another good one for range which will cap out at about 40ft is the 1991/1992 Nerf Bow n' Arrow. Same ammo but doesn't make use of vintage mega darts but overall is a decent vintage blaster as it is durable in design.

It probably wouldn't be very significant, but from watching the expand-o-blast fire, I'm fairly certain it would get better range with the barrel retracted. You can see the barrel recoil, which must lose quite a lot of energy, and the air also has to expand a lot further, and thus lose a lot of pressure before it can reach the dart
