So I was browsing ebay again since why not, and stumbled upon yet another worker thing that looks promising. Link
Reason why I bring this up is because I am wondering if this should be bought, since this could possibly make re-barreling a mega gun very easy and would be a very good for a noob at modding.

No. Nobody on a MODDING FORUM should be recommending that someone pay $15 for a kit that they could do themselves for a way cheaper length of CPVC and some elbow grease. This is a cool product, especially for noobs, but we should be teaching noobs how to mod, not how to pay for a pre-made part and install it. (Not that I'm knocking aftermarket parts, but I think that there are some like the Pak-D clips that are worthwhile and some like this that are just lazy).

please continue to cry, stuff like that is really great for kids that dont have access/arent allowed cutting implements but still want to modify. they still get to open it up and see how it works and problem solve and engage in the thing you're yelling about while also having it be reversible so nobody gets mad that they ruined their blaster.

A fair opinion but any kid not old enough to use a pipe cutter (which isn't even a dangerous tool) and wire cutters is too young for this forum, and consequently will probably never find out about this product in the first place. You can't just walk into a toys r us and buy this kit.

You know some people want to be able to use mega darts in their mega blasters and not just elites. Its nice to have a mod that allows you to go back and forth.

I honestly think its a cool idea and I'm honestly debating on getting one. I still haven't found the right size PVC and I've probably spent more trying to find the right material. Id rather spend 15 bucks on something that will work all the time with the bonus of being able to change rather quickly and its not a permanent mod. I think is a good product that more people should be interested in. But hey, I'm just a dude who like to fling foam:)

Bobololo has a review of the cyclone shock set on YouTube and walcom27 has the rotofury set reviewed as well. Might help you make a decision.

Thank you for telling me, those videos are great but still didn't answer the one thing both of them forgot to test. That thing is if it works better with Fvjs and those accurate darts, thank you anyway though.

If you don't care about being shamed by the nerf modder masterrace i think it is definitely a good purchase.   

 

People can call me a newB for this but who cares: I bought the rebarreling kit from worker and pushed them into a cycloneshock, BOOM! instant gratification my cycloneshock now shoots koosh darts as accurately and as far as most modified springers and the "mod" only took about 16 seconds.

Thank you, that answers my question about knock off darts. I just had that feeling during bobololo's review that the horrible accuracy was due to the flaw in elites, and sure enough I was correct!

You definitely want to find the "generation 3" koosh darts.  eBay seller  beautifulwoman2012 is the store that I bought from.   The yellow version is nice, it's very easy to find them after a match. I'll probably be ordering a couple thousand of these fantastic darts for the Philly super stock wars I occasionally host.
