This "Accu" series seems to be the next evolutionary step from the Edge series - a line that was already marketed to be the most accurate rival. Hence, it makes sense that these blasters get great accuracy, even with old fashioned rival rounds. What I am wondering is if the new accu-rounds improve the performance of older rival blasters at all.

I like the who not having to pull down and slap it back up. It takes four steps to fire the damn blaster.

putting a single steel bb in the middle of rival rounds has done well for my outdoor accuracy. not sure if it'd be allowed at events or whatever but my friend and I shoot each other with them and it doesn't feel different, just seems to help for straight shots at longer distances.

- Price - Ergonomics - Auto breech opening - Literal Firestrike internals (yes, there's a catch with a catch spring!) - Easy short dart modding (shoved 6" of Kuryaka Barrel into mine and it hits 150-160FPS~) It's a win! Got the Pathfinder inbound too, hopefully more stock mods and more grip options beyond Drac's offerings pop up as well~

I'm now tempted to pick up a pair of Takedowns with that lever-action mod and a bunch of the new Rival rounds.

I love how no one noticed the OTHER ACCUSTRIKE RIVAL GUN😂, literally on the desk next to him in the demo range👆🏽

I'm glad Hasbro is supporting someone like you, that consistently works hard to put out videos. Given the breach looks/functions like the Flex, can you fit 2 rounds in it for a shotgun shot? (Or is it even worth it, if it's so accurate?)

To me, and i have pretty small hands because im a child, the Nerf Elite 2.0 Slyshot had one-of-the BEST feeling grips of all time. Literally, i bought it for four bucks because it looked cute and then i held it and i didnt put it down for the entire day. Thats how good.

The boss battle music really makes this one of my new favorite nerf channel.

I found thar I needed a little bit of upward pull on the t to get the barrel to release. Every time it failed was when I was trying to be careful to pull ot parallel to the shell.

Basically a knockout but the plunger placed on the horizontal position, and you can duel weld if you have another one, also it can use any rival balls, and even can take a k26 spring. So looking forward to getting one of these for a decent price, unless you’re looking for a good deal at Walmart via rollbacks.

Great video, Walcom! Desperately, eagerly awaiting your review of the Vision!

Thanks for the testing my dude! I just bought two of these on Prime for under $5 a pop. Kind of funny how the gun doesn’t seem to want to shoot the head, but will group tightly all around it 😂

if you put a return spring and a cath like a "slide relise" i think you could be able to like, prime the blaster put a round in and relise that "slide lock" to close the breach

Having finished the video, yeah I'm going to want a couple of these.

In my knockout the first thing I did was opened it up and removed the spring for the muzzle so I just had to unleash the latch and tilt the blaster back to close it

That guy is gonna make such a cool inline half-dart 'snub-nose' cyber-shotty!

Great vid. Good review WOW on hasbro sending to you. I personally am excited about this line. Especially the pathfinder.

I still can’t believe that nerf is making advanced blasters…like actually improved from prior models

The only thing that sucks about Hasbro doing “plastic-free packaging” is with Transformers now being in open-window boxes. …which means they’re easier to steal, as people can now just tear the figure out, leaving an empty box on the shelf

As someone who has this gun I have never owned a nerf gun where the sights are actually useful. Great blaster

Excellent review! Need to get a scale though.

I like this line a lot. I like the power of the pistol, seems it shoots harder than the usual Rival springers. I am happy Hasbro continued with new Rival blasters. The new ammo does not seem more accurate than the old one, but I like the way it looks. Also, the optimized barrel claim seems a bit silly, don't you think so?

Your wall is crazy. Nice to see people keep boxes. I use to but adulting gave me no space with all the things I do.

Would be interesting if you clamp the blasters down for the comparison

From an outside perspective, it seems like the accu-rival rounds are just another Hasbro Gimmick and the blaster itself is what makes the line more accurate, not the rounds. The grouping of original Rival rounds was better than that of these new "more accurate" ones.

I'm excited for this! Thanks Walcom!!

Seems I was right in holding off with getting a knockout to get this thing instead. Just gotta wait for it to appear in europe, with your affiliate link delivery is scheduled for september lmao.

Definitely going to pick this one up, but probably not gonna mod it. I modded my knockout, accidentally made it a 2 shot rscb and I love it, but now I don't have a rival pistol lol. With the t pull being standard pull back instead of pull back then return forward, is it possible to de-prime the blaster? Maybe the first de-primeable rival blaster

I'll be shoving the new Bawls in my perses to see if there's any difference

I can't wait until I get my brass mod for the Fate! Also ordered more accu rounds!

This blaster looks sick!

I love how the new line of rival look

I just picked one of these today for $10 at Walmart and am going to convert it to short dart and possibly mag fed

Hasbro's marketing department in overdrive. Not gonna exchang my knockout for this.

So was away from the hobby for a bit and picked up a couple of Fates for $10. Wow! This thing is sweet for $10! Great ergonomics, still Rival performance. I don't know if it is quite a worthy successor to the Knockout (probably my favorite pistol platform), but it's darn good! So much cool mod potential. I think giving up a bit of plunger volume for the grip ergo was worth it!

I love the looks of the blasters

those are some accurate balls...

May I know what digital target board are you using? Where can I get 1?

I like the open face boxes. You can try the grip before you buy

Finally. A rival nitefinder.

This blaster has a potential to be a mag fed carbine

Excellent music choice

Imagine the perses plus the new accu rounds

I put in a SSWI full length darts barrel on my Fate and now can front load both full length and half length darts easily.

Love your videos man

Bro love your stuff

I may get the Fate at some point just for plinking. The Vision is highly unlikely. Pathfinder looks great! Unfortunately I don't have any spare magazines and the one that came with it has a weak tab on the top. Will decide to randomly open and launch blue balls all over the place when attempting to load or put it in the magwell. Also had some glue on it for no apparent reason.

HI WALCOM I love ur content and everything u do as a content creator is what makes me like ur content your the best creator and thank u for making a youtube channel have a wonderful day

Very nice, I forsee many kits for that thing

denser with increased dimpled area like a golfball for less drag might be the reason

looks pretty cool

Very cyberpunk look with these blasters , I love it

Such a sweet blaster

Nice to see Rival rise, Rise! Nerf been in a slump lately nice to see them picking up pace again. I'd prefer basic release of a Jolt, Triad and Firestrike versions, muh bread n butter atleast in the first wave.

I think the color scheme could be better, but they do look awesome

they should make it so the bullets curve a bit upwards for more distance

When saying original rival flies off after a certain distance, shouldn't accuracy testing be done at longer ranges then? Rival was always pretty good at shorter ranges. Just something I thought. Accurival might be more significantly different at longer ranges. Edit: I said range a lot 😂

The Fate is unironically one of my favorite Rival blasters. I never liked the Knockout as much as a lot of people, but the Fate is one of the comfiest and easiest blasters to load for me.

Ive got a vision on pre order, been awhile since i got a nerf branded blaster

I mean I don't know ~what~ I was hoping for with it but I kinda don't like that its basically a single shot while being rather chunky and sizeable for what it is

So it's I rival nightfiner of firestrike or that elite 2.0 type of blaster with that prime

Hi, are you going to do a review on the Winchester m1887 nerf?

I love your channel.

blaster go spinnnnnn!

The reason that Hasbro does not just switch completely over to the Accustrike line is because the Accustike darts cant shoot as far. Also, with having more lines Hasbro makes more profit off their blasters(*main reason) It would be cool if nerf made a Accustrike line (possibly rival?) that would shoot just as far but also remain as accurate as the current Accustrike darts. Although considering the profit Hasbro gets that is not very likely to happen.

I’ll definitely take a couple of these, especially because I love the color.

Those blue balls (giggidy) from your discription anyway seem closer to the x shot chaos rounds. The smooth barreling in these new ones along with having good sights look to at the very least not hurting the accuracy. The barrels of my Hades definitely have too much going on, and the cylindrical shape along with it's vertical grip can lead to it being held less than perfectly level... Which is what I have always attributed to it's off centre shots when compared to other rival blasters like the Roundhouse.

Hopefully we can get accu ammo standardized, same for the plastic free packaging
