Got my Vulcan EBF-25 chaingun back in 2006. I'm now 25 years old and the Vulcan EBF-25 is still in my closet waiting to be modified once more. Always thought about adding on the Longshot's sniper scope & the recon's laser dot attachments and the Rampage's/stampede's riot shield attachment. A modification i have achieved so far is the ammo belt, removing the green "out of ammo" portion and added another 25 dart belt, now carrying 50 belts in one mag. This was a heart/wholesome nostalgic video, i still remember the times you were the baddest kid on the block if you had the Stampede/Recon/Longshot/Vulcan EBF-25, good times.

When I was little, I had a Longshot, and my first blasters were the old nerf pack of two pistols with a charging loop in the back that came with a battery powered target. They shot well, in fact better than the Longshot, but when I was about 11 to 12 or so, I got an elite pistol, and I have to say they actually can hurt a tad firing at almost 100fps, I was so blown away. I could shoot a foam dart across my entire neighborhood. The dart moved so fast it sorta spiraled in the air from turbulence. I was like, "THIS is how Nerf was MEANT to be." Fun video, loved seeing the FPS improvements through each upgrade, instead of all these other KZitemrs Just doing all the upgrades at once and only doing a final chrono test.

I always hated those front loading bolts. Technically blasters that have them are considered front loaders, and in order to get them to perform better, you need to use short dart's since there's not enough space inside the blasters to make a proper sealed breach that will work for standard darts, while a simple spring upgrade will cause standard darts to split open while fired. Great mods if you're switch to short darts entirely, but not so much for people who still use standards too. Another issue was dart bite. Where you bolt slices into the darts in your mag. I found a simple piece of plastic can fix this issue by either taping it to the back of the mag, or installing it inside the blaster, in front of the bolt.
