I have a feeling that the internals will be the same because:
My guess is; the only thing they've changed in this longshot is the the breech, to feed in elite darts.
Next, would be to change that HUGE air restrictor for elite ranges.
Note the breech is very easy for nerf to adjust rather than the whole shell.
- It already has a direct plunger. That's a reqirement for it to be elite, or this generation
- For them to change the plunger assembly would mean they'd have to modify the shell. If they have done so, thsoe two bipood stubs wouldn't have existed.
- hasbro can be lazy, as seen in their several recolorings. scince it's technically already elite,why bother?

Wow, I would've never thought of something that ingenious, (no sarcasm intended).
It'd be best to structure a checklist such as:
The channel name,
the NIC modders loyal enough to the hobby, to keep it running.
the subject catagories, and news coverage,
the brocasting location, (if needed; multiple locations),
the channel, or network logo (to make it look official ).
The segments I'd like to see would be: upcoming wars, new porducts, mods of the week, rants,and modding materials.
It seems like a good idea as long as there is effort put into it.
My only concern is that it might tend to lean more towards general nerfing rather than modding itself and turn into another youtube version of Urban taggers, or my last dart, in which we have WAY too much of .

This is a very good concept that is feasible,
except for the fact that, fly wheels decelerate for a second, after a shot is fired.
This means that, the moment one shot is fired, the second shot will have a range decrease following a significant range decrease in the third shot, if you fire them in short bursts.
Still,if you use higher torque motors or lighter darts with less inertia, that may counter the effect.

It must be using some kind of different plunger system.
If you notice right when he fires there is two clicking sonds instead of one THOMP sound.

wow this is a clever solution/fix.
then again, is it a more comfortable/stable alternative
opposed to using to the original grip?
If you want, a 1" tee with a stub inserted into the bottom
can also work instead of 1-1/4 pvc.
this way you'll have a vertical foregrip making it more ergonomic.

Thanks!
Here are some approximated plunger dimensions i worked out for comparison:
Nite Finder Plunger
Inner diameter (ID) = 2.4cm
Plunger draw = 4.5cm
Total effective air volume = 20.37 cubic cm
Elite Retaliator Plunger
Inner diameter (ID) = 2.5cm
Plunger draw = 6.0cm
Total effective air volume = 29.46 cubic cm
The Elite Retaliator plunger has a larger air volume, but its offset by the added deadspace within the bolt system (air needs to travel 2"+ through the bolt before it propels the foam dart)... while the Nite Finder has very little deadspace 'cos the barrel is right in front of the plunger.
Overall, i would expect both blasters getting similar ranges if modded with equivalent spring loads (which is actually what i'm already seeing when i compare the performance of my modded Retaliators and Nite Finders).
I guess the significance here is that users can now have a clip-fed pistol sidearm (ie. just using the Retaliator main blaster only), that can easily get modded Nite Finder ranges with just a few simple and quick mods.
THIS is why I love you.
