My xZeus pt.1

YES!!!

I have finally gotten access to my dream blaster.

You want to see it? well… I guess I could show you… but no taking it alright?

This is the xZeus 2. A Longshot reshell, and an amazing one at that.

This is the olive variant, although I admit it looks more khaki on the photos.

I love this blaster. So much smoother of a prime than Retaliators for the same amount of power.

Would I recommend this over a Longshot? yes, definitely.

I even got some Xplorer priming arm covers to go with it!

Solid shell, easy to upgrade, and has a nice big handle.

INTERNALS

Well, internals right now are pretty simple.

When I bought this, it came with a gen 2 Alpha kit, and the shell being pre-reinforced. It was hitting around 200fps. Feeds perfectly.

I added the metal boltsled you see here, and I added on a scar barrel as well:

Blastertech MK2 scar barrel

The scar barrel lowered power by 15fps, but the accuracy trade off is well worth it.

The metal boltsled that I added will help with longevity, and actually makes the prime that little bit smoother.

It is working well now, but wait till you see what I’ve got for my…..

Planned mods

This blaster is amazing, so I want to ensure it stays that way.

What I have planned for it is a whole lot of things actually.

The first of which is a brass breech. Brass breeches are amazing, and I think that this blaster needs it. It will increase power and accuracy, as well as making this blaster truly my own.

Another planned upgrade is the trigger. It is a nice trigger, but I feel that it has too much flex. A metal trigger would fix that.

A stronger spring will also be added, however that may be temporary, due to how much I like this prime.

If a stronger spring is added, a metal catch also will be. For longevity, as mentioned with the boltsled.

Afterthoughts

This is an awesome blaster, and it deserves it’s place in my arsenal.

Upgrade time!

That’s all for now
