Well, I'm currently overhauling a '95 Xbow. I received it in fairly poor shape; owner #1 had modified it just to Level 2 with the spliced tubing, but the Mega barrel had gotten bent off-center over the course of time, and he tried to rectify it with hot glue and Erector Set pieces. The internals are in decent shape, and I've improved the seal a tad, but I've got so much more to do.

My Immortal Longstrike and my Firestrike. I shoved two springs in the Firestrike and intend to improve the barrel.

My first 'big' overhaul was a firestrike with a 6.5 in 17/32 brass barrel, a 10 kg nerfturf spring, epoxy putty reinforced spring rest and plunger rod, virtually all dead space removed, plunger tube shifted foward to increase air volume and finally a fully foward recoiling plunger tube/barrel setup.

My first big overhaul was a firestrike with a cpvc coupler and a 13 pound spring and better padded plunger head. The dang thing still fired badly because of a ton of dead space

My first overhaul was on an OG blue stryfe. I put a DRS fwc in it along with, MTB Wolverines, a complete rewire, an Omron microswitch, and a 2s lipo. That thing sounded beastly.

My first is a tri blade rs. Having issues with the mosfet though.

I need to get 2 hellcats & a loom kit and just mod the stryfe.

Currently in the midst of my own first big overhaul, integrated a firefly stock into a longshot and slowly buying artifact parts as I have the money for them.

Just completed my first overhaul except for motor cover & battery tray. Took the artifact red cage with worker wheels & 2 blade 180s out of my currently bugged RS & put them into my stryfe. Used a big cherry switch & 16awg. Works great.

Not sure what qualifies as an "overhaul", but the first blasters I modded in any significant way were Nitefinders and Supermaxx 1500s
