Is this the best injection-molded springer blaster ever? | Worker Harrier Review 

A feature a lot of people miss is that on the beginning of the barrel, right in front of the magazine well, there's a small indent. Worker includes a sticker that goes on there that has a bar code, the serial number of your blaster, and the date of manufacture. Mine was 1/1/23.

If I had to start an armoury from the ground up, the: Phoenix 2.0, Nightingale, and Harrier would be a solid starting point, especially with the cohesive design language.

My favorite part was when you said the SAB M20 looked ugly. But I am also looking forward to this blaster for games.

The Harrier is my favorite springer to use right now, with the heavy spring and a scar hitting just below the 200fps limit of some nearby clubs. Trion play was also satisfying, but this one I *enjoyed* more. The price is high, but with how well it's made, it's easy to justify buying to have something that works, and works well.

The Trion and the Harrier are two of the best blasters out right now. Even the Game Face Havoc prime beats out most other blasters. I'm looking forward to more AEG/HPA blasters in the hobby myself. That's when the hobby will reach a truly premium level.

Recently brought my Harrier to a ~200 fps game, truly one of the smoothest primes I've ever had. Had originally considered getting a swift but it was definitely worth waiting for the Harrier to be released

I’m glad to hear that this grip is slightly longer than the Nightingale’s. We have the same issue with the Nightingale’s grip length.

A lot of pros to this over other springer primaries: + Threaded barrels are an incredible barrel attachment method with excellent if not near perfect air seal. Clampdown barrel mounting styles are a pain in the butt. + Excellent out of the box air seal means you don't have to spend so much time fixing it + Proven plunger/pusher system (copying the caliburn, talonclaw, etc) + 2 part detachment system makes cleaning/lubing/repairing internal parts significantly easier and faster + Performance of up to 260-280 fps out of the box + easy to install upgrades means you're immediately good to go for most NIC/high-level hobby games + Built in hex key slot is great, more blasters should do this But there's a few cons worth of note: - Threaded barrels means you can only currently use worker's barrels. Most likely the Jet Blaster barrels, which are threaded as well, will not work. Maybe someone out there will make custom barrels later but my experience with the prophecy and worker LS kits tells me that their barrels are "okay". They are far from the best the hobby is offering. - Straight talons only. Man I wish they at least sold an angled talon version so I can use this with my phoenix 2.0 and not worry about what mags I'm pulling out. - Unless worker has upgraded their o-rings in their springers lately, I've had terrible experiences getting worker o-rings to lube up properly, especially with silicon grease. The worker lithium grease is also IMO not worth your time and is of poor quality. From the video it looks like the rubber buffer on the front of the plunger might be silicon based, since it looks similar to older worker buffers. The o-rings don't look like silicon though. Just remember before you buy what you'll be getting into. But for the most part nearly all of the cons I've listed are addressable through hobby provided help and guides for older springer platforms.

The newer blasters from Worker all look fantastic. I love the colors and overall designs so much. I'd definitely get a nightingale or phoenix if I had the money to spend.

I had my Lynx hit 1 minute 30 seconds with no noticeable air loss. It could have kept going indefinitely but too much of an air seal isn't optimal for performance so I knocked it down to 15 seconds with a slightly looser plunger head. Excited to get my white Harrier in! Going for all the longboi parts because I love the long look.

I love how gorgeous the design of this one is. Been waiting for an upgrade from my stryker and this looks like it might be it

Thanks for the video Luke, as usual you have the best reviews in the hobby hands down. Just ordered 2 of them from you, can’t wait for your February shipment!

Awesome review! Did the air seal test with my new Harrier without the scar barrel attached and gave up after 2 minutes 😆 it last a long time

Thank you for the fps table! amazing video.

I can't wait to get a hold of mine. Great review as always. Hoping to see a mod video in the future 👍

Looks pretty great. Really would like to get a Phoenix 2 and this for the full matching load out! The Worker Nightingale was probably my favourite blaster I acquired last year.

Got mine today, it's actually amazing. Everything you say is true, I couldn't imagine playing with anything else.

Great review Luke really loving the harrier so far

I'm extremely impressed with this. The ease of maintenance and adaptability are huge! Also that build quality means much less upkeep or the need to upgrade parts. So, it may be triple the price of something like the Nexus Pro... But, over the long haul will actually save money. With 3 kids and myself, that's important lol. Also, if you're like me and run games using the Nexus Pro as the base blaster...that 5 round magazine is kinda nice. This will out perform them by a fair amount, but lowering ammo capacity levels the field

Old world phrasing at 6:17... Love it!

Couple of suggestions for 3D printed pieces: Trigger Guard Bridge: After removing the knuckleduster, the empty screw holes near the trigger guard could be used to secure a 3D printed bridge over the gap. Grip Cap: With the knuckleduster removed, a more elegant cap to the grip could be fitted; a sling attachment option might be nice. New styles of knuckledusters might be interesting, but I think most of us find them unnecessary. Unless those knuckledusters have clips to hold FOUR extra short darts, okay not really. Maybe.

Thx again Luke. Love my Swift, so this seems like a nice compliment. Added to preorder cart for next availability.

Got it pre-ordered. Pretty stoked.

Thanks for the review, I will be buying the harrier now, to upgrade my swift. It's crazy how many parts are available already

Thanx luke for the updates n comparisons

this blaster looks amazing, i will definitely buy this.

Hey Luke I love your channel and store, I have gotten a majority of my gear from you and I wanted to say thank you. I got the harrier on preorder and I’m super excited to get it. My max Stryker that i ran for ages broke because it’s shell couldn’t handle the tuning cap I put on so I preordered the harrier as a replacement I got a battle on the third so I hope I get it by then but if I don’t I’ll just run my 2.1

I have the Worker Harrier, love them! 265fps! Greetings from Vienna (Europe/Austria) Erik

That looks like an awesome blaster. I'll definitely pick one up.

Had one preorder with all the upgraded parts since first day they was on the out of darts site. Been checking almost daily for news on it so I guess you could say I'm a little anxious 😜 can't wait 👍

That thing is AWESOME! Can't wait to get 1

Looks like a really neat build.

I've been debating whether I want the harrier or the trion but I think this video made up my mind, thx

Oh man! I want one! Lol I love my Stryker but this is just solid and will definitely last! I wish they made a metal parts kit for the Stryker 😅

This makes me really excited for mine on preorder. Not cheap but you get quite the blaster.

Awesome review as always thanks 😊

This blaster feels like a game changer. I feel like the Harrier really marks that the hobby has really come into its own.

I love the idea of this blaster. I have a U-Caliburn which will be getting metal internals that may be cheaper and better but this is without a doubt one of if both the best performance nerf blasters that you can buy and get from the box

Just to comment on the seal. Both my lynx and sbl have what I call an “infinity” seal. They will keep air indefinitely until you remove your finger. Can’t wait to get my hands on the Harrier!

Looking skinny! Don’t skip your meals! 🇨🇦 I just got my orders from OOD for my MK3! I’m very happy! Thanks 🙏

I just got a trion and love it but this looks like a beast really tempted to buy one

I love the look of this so much. Can not wait to get one. I think the included mag could be perfect for a SPAMF, make it more holstersble. I hope a weaker spring will come out for this. I would like a bit lower than 180 personally

I'm very excited on your video review of blaster. This was very informative and surprising. The only thing that is keeping me from buying one is the price. I told myself if I'm going to come back to the hobby just get stuff your going to use and don't start being a nerf hoarder. The other reason is that it's only talon and not cross compatible with dart zone. Yes I do run those mags and have plenty of them.

I have thoroughly average sized hands for an adult woman in the US, and I've had plenty of blasters where the grip is too short. I'm glad that this one can accommodate US adults. I really like the swapable barrels to dial in your performance. Now I just need to figure out what to do with my Stryker, lol

that blaster looks awesome.

On order from you, looking forward to take it out on the field.

I love Worker products.

Jeeze that is a gorgeous blaster.

I have several high power springers including a Prophecy and a Nexus and this is enough of a step above that I am going to pick one up when I can afford it.

I'm going to buy it now

Looks nice

AMAZING! now do a Blaize review too!!!

Very cool and premium blaster but unfortunately out of my price range. Yes please keep providing more blaster reviews. A simple request, would love to see you do a GameFace TRION review PLEASE Ty!!!!

Looks great. I'll probably pick one up sooner or later :)

I reckon I'm gonna be saving up to get a few of these. They look really cool and the ergonomics seem to be amazing. I might have to get one of my friends to see if they can 3d print an m4 style mag for one of these

The only thing left to make this a 10/10 is the little quick swap spring feature that the Gameface Trion has

There is another blaster out of the box that seals well, but it is *very* old comparatively- if you count it, the Xzeus/Omega kit from jet blasters. That uses the same sort of threaded breach & has a perfect air seal out of the box too

Very cool blaster! A bit too real steel looking for me, but the quality seems to be excellent.

The performance of a Swift with the bearing prime and form factor of a SBL. I'm tempted to get the stormtrooper color one but the last thing I need is another "AR-15" looking blaster.

Love it. wish it came in red.

I'd love to just buy the stock off this one, I really dig the simple design.

No such thing as too many blaster releases Luke! 😂

I have to argue that Trion is up there as well

Sold my swift to buy one. Waiting for it to arrive.

YES

EXCELENT

As for the air seal, my Swift can hold air for 7 minutes easily, but 30 seconds is still more than enough

Coop has to see this

Very compelling...very. Daddy wants!

I wonder whether in your air seal test if the scar barrel was the weak point? Might have an indefinite air seal if you use the bare barrel.

I like everything but the dumb gap in the trigger guard, the hand guard, and the mag release. What's the point of a paddle mag release if the handguard is blocking it?? Should've been a button mag release

Not to be confused with the Harrier V/STOL.

I wish you had explained how easy/difficult it was to swap springs. After seeing the ease of spring swap in say the Trion I don't want to go back to having to take the whole shell apart just to swap a spring.

I like my max stryker well enough, but it creaks and flexes *so* much when I'm handing it. I'd love to have something similar but a bit more solid.

I have built Ranger Snipers with upwards of 4 min seal holding. Average is about 30 secs-1min

Seems like a pretty nice blaster. I wish it was a little less gun shaped, the swift does far better in that regard. It's out of my budget range, but for people who have the cash to spare it seems like a pretty solid offering.

I would be fascinated to see a blaster come out that's "meant for cosplay", meaning it has a minimal form factor with easy to attach to points, essentially designing with the intent that cosplayers and other makers would buy the base blaster and add on to it to make it have the appearance of other weapons from media.

Currently enjoying my Harrier and barrel/spring choice is definitely a big deal here, especially when it comes to choosing barrel attachments to make sure it's actually accurate 😅 Also is the prime squeaky for you around the catch area when using the 1.6×250 spring?

I would love to see a sling point attachment for the buffer tube like you did with the nexus pro as I don't like using sling points on the rear of my stock.

Nice

the only down side i see with this blaster is the foregrip compatibility. I'm an angled foregrip fan. my guess is you can use a picitiny riser and mount it very forward to get it to work(dont have one to test with)

Cant wait to get mine in hand, when do you think they will ship? Date on site still or pre orders goin out anytime early??? I want to order a list of up grades, but wanta mess with it stock 1st...so I can see the improvements. So pumped for this blaster....

This is my new favorite blaster. It makes all caliburn derivatives obsolete IMO

What would you recommend for a full dart Springer and a flywheeler

I think the one missed opportunity with the Harrier is the spring swap. I wish they'd carried over the rear spring swap from the swift. And I wish Worker would do the bcar in all orange

I couldn't find anything for the Rival Helios on your website. Do people not modify the springs in the Helios?

i see a QWK edge on the wall behind you are you gonna review that soon maybe pls

you should review the nerf elite 2.0 storm charge next😀😁😎

Idea I thought about when I was browsing your store. What if you made a stock/ grip for the Jupiter that turned it into a p90 like blaster.

Could you comment on the prime & how it compares to the Swift with similar high FPS spring loads?

do you guys think you could. maybe , just maybe do a review of the 3dprintedsolid battle pack which can deliver 40+ rounds

Two questions! 1: Is the barrel of the looser kind, like in Dart Zone Pro blasters (i.e if you dropped a dart in, it could freely fall through)? I don't really want to have to worry about squibs if I decide to invest in this blaster... 2: How tough is the prime? I've heard the prime on the Swift is super light and smooth for the performance because of the long stroke and whatnot--is the Harrier the same?

I really wish that would have been a flywheeler. Would have been sick looking!!

Hey! I was thinking of buying the harrier, but there don’t seem to be barrel or spring options on the website. Are they all included or do alternates need to be purchased separately?

Not practical for gameplay, but I can get my worker swift with a 1.8 spring and brass barrel to shoot 360FPS. Can the harrier possibly outperform that?

are we ever going to get stls for the little rocket and veryents

“The saber M20 construct looks ugly” Bradley Phillips wants to know your location

Ooo, my worker prophecy might have some competition…

would i be able to get one before march 22 (my birthday)? i wanna know if the shipping could get to canada before march 22

Will there be a 1.8 spring in the future luke so It can reach 300 FPS plus
