Drozd blackbird barrel damage full#
DrozdMax installs these, I also opted for the full tune which is $75.00 and they go completely thru the gun, tune it and change out a few parts and add a rare earth magnet to the alignment system to overcome a embarassing factory flaw of BB’s rolling out the barrel. The “Wild Chip” changes the Blackbird from 1-3-6 shot options to 1-3-1200 rpm full auto option. The magazine has a plug in line that plugs into the gun and the 6 AA battery system powers it. The magazine was easy to fill with what is said to be a 900 BB capacity, the motor in the magazine whirs like a mini gun when you turn the power on. First thing I noticed is that it shot hard, although I was using only AA’s, it raised sparks up in the driveway shooting plastic bottles. I got it yesterday late, after dark, but I got it up and running, put a BSA laser on it and went to shooting. I have a Mako regulator I use for tethered shooting, so it seemed like a cheaper option, $100.00 cheaper than the 13/3000 regulated paint ball bottle. I got the male HPA nipple to replace the CO2 option which I have no use for at all. I bought it from DrozdMax on line and had the 1200 RPM “wild Chip” put in, the Sergy board was unavailable, I doubt I would have paid the extra bucks for that option anyway which it is alledged to give 2000 RPM. Last week I succumbed to the urge to get the next generation, or maybe two generations later, the motorized magazine Blackbird. It was also more accurate than I remembered my old Red Rider of my distant childhood had been. It was supposed to be getting 450 FPS, and I don’t doubt it, for it would bury BB’s a 1/4 inch into old dry fir deck railing. It had to be fed often having only a 30 round magazine and only got 60 shots at most on a CO2 cylinder, the last few shots barely making it out the barrel, it took a long time to feed it and it was very finicky in 12 gram cartridge length even though I only used premium CO2 cartridges. Soon it was mine and I had a lot of fun with it and shared that experience with friends and family who all loved it.īut the little Yellow Bumble Bee had its faults and limitaions. I had seen them in catalogues and was tempted, but never acted on my impulse until a friend who trades a lot of guns got one in trade. 257 Scadalous, so I bought something I have wanted for a couple of years, the Drozd Black Bird.Ī few years ago I had the little yellow Bumble Bee. I needed a indulgence gap filler to take the edge off my anticipation while waiting for the Haley.
