I started this site after I became a dad - to learn about all of the new blasters and review and catalogue them - because I wanted to share one of my favorite childhood pastimes with my son -- and now, I fell back in love with the hobby! I’ll be skipping this step, as my Elite Longshot didn’t have any air holes in the breech whatsoever.

I’ve had great experiences with their products in the past and so I had no problems using them again. I opted to remove the bipod legs, but that isn’t a necessary procedure for the Nerf Longshot mod guide. Make sure you fold out the Longshot’s built-in bipod legs, because there are a few hidden screws underneath them. For this Nerf Longshot mod guide, I’ve opted to use a couple of kits from modding company Orange Mod Works. It’s a bit longer than the plunger rod, so you’ll have to compress the spring and hold it down while you complete the next step.

The Stage 1 kit includes a new, beefy 8KG spring, a reinforced plunger retention cap, a tougher trigger catch, and stronger catch springs.

We started Nerf-ing in the early days where high powered blaster are build with pipes and watching the hobby evolves with the help of 3D printing and the likes of Worker/Artifact that transformed the hobby into what it is today. It gives you a slightly heavier trigger pull which can be a good thing if you are running a heavily modded Longshot without a trigger guard.

It’s a standard mod when dealing with Longshots and if you’ve seen a Nerf Longshot mod guide before, I’m sure you’re at least somewhat familiar with how to do it. The Stage 2 kit comes with an all metal trigger, an entire new bolt sled, a new plunger rod and plunger head.Once you hammer it out halfway or more, you can grab it with some needle nose pliers and pull it the rest of the way out. Depending on which Longshot you have, you may need hot glue or epoxy putty to seal up the air release hole on the breech.
