Does anyone here own any of Xplorer's mods? The Centurion demo video looks pretty sick. And my interest is also piqued by the prospect of turning my Longstrikes into actual usable blasters!  They mod kits are crazy expensive though and I'm not sure if the quality is as good as the price implies. Would love to see a review from someone.

Xplorer is pretty expnsive and SG (SinGapore) nerfers have been controversial over it. Get worker parts if you want a kit,

They have some good products but it is overpriced and many people have had customer service problems, etc. As others have said get a worker kit or something. Also do not immediately trust their FPS ratings because people have proven thelat super high FPS scores can be faked easily by using foam blanks (lighter, higher velocity) instead of regular Stefans. Also, nothing will make the centurion a good blaster.

I can't say I've seen any Worker mod kits aside from the Retaliator Pump kit. I've definitely not seen anything for the Longstrike from them. Can you point me in the right direction please? I did order an Artifact Retaliator breach kit from tacticoolfoam, a new business from a forum member. Just wanted to support our local entrepreneurs you know.

Most of the better products are there, but in terms of worker kits other than the retaliator spring kits, someone else will have to find the links to them. If they do, please add them to the above thread and I will edit them into the OP for future reference. Some worker products are on ebay as well. The best option for the longstrike is to put an air tank in it. Use an XBZ tank or something. The best part of the longstrike is the shell and by using an air tank you can get all the power of an airgun and all the comfort of the longstrike. You can even keep the clips depending on the style of brass breech you choose to do.

I own a Spirit of Xplorer Blaster that was upped to 21 kg's and the barrel cut down to 11" rather than 16".  I also use their darts. 

First off, Go with a longshot kit, not only because they have more potential but because lots of other people make parts for the Longshot (Like Roboman, Worker, OMW, Artifact). The breech has a nice rate of fire, but don't overload the mags, I load 15 rounds in a 18 round mag and the jamlessness Is worth it.  Also, if you confine the pin on the Eco Hybred boltsled to not fall out of position, it can handle most heavy springloads, but if you want to go mideval! Roboman makes a cooking sled and you can get the Fighter kit instead. On the Eco Hybred boltsled I use a 4-40 case 5 hardened screw with a #6 washer and threadlock.  Nylon nuts would be better, but they are hard to find in 4-40 size. 

The power of a Xarrett is achievable with one of the longshot kits and a heavier springload. On a Centurion Xarrett kit, Xplorer is the only company that makes parts for it, if you do get one, get the cnc'd catch plate.

They are not worth your money at all. Shity products at a ridiculous price. I would highly recommend checking out Zuark0 and Artifact Nerf Mods (I think you can find them on Facebook.) They do some high quality stuff, and I know Zaurk0 has a mag well converter for the centurion.
