We have received a first sample of the Worker Harrier and inmediately put it to the test!
The Worker Harrier is a high power springer with several barrel and spring options to adjust the FPS for your personal needs. The springs can be swapped by removing a couple of screws and the barrel can quickly be swapped by just twisting.
Stock the Harrier comes with 2 barrels (368 and 310mm) and 2 springs (1.4 x 250 mm and 1.4 x 275 mm) Additionally there is a 450 and 550 mm barrel available as well as a 1.6 x 250 mm spring and a 1.6 x 300 mm spring. interesting to note is that the 250 spring by Worker actually measures 270 mm long and the 300 mm spring measures 310 mm long. In the performance table we used the lengths as specified by Worker and used in the product listings.
During our testing we used the Worker Harrier exactly as it arrived to us with the exception of some additional lubircation we added to the plunger. During our testing we shot at least 20 darts through our chronograph after which we removed the highest and the lowest reading and any potential outliers due to bad darts. For darts we used red Worker Short Darts Gen3+.
Please note that performance may vary between blasters. Performance depends on barrel seal, lubrication, darts and even climate. With improved seals, you might even get higher performance than in our tests. This just serves as base numbers so you know what to expect.
Barrel | Spring | Average FPS | Lowest reading | Highest reading | Standard Deviation |
310 mm | 1.4 x 250 | 166,9 | 140 | 186 | 13,6 |
310 mm | 1.4 x 275 | 196,3 | 181 | 203 | 5,43 |
310 mm | 1.6 x 250 | 251,1 | 244 | 256 | 3,23 |
310 mm | 1.6 x 300 | 262,4 | 250 | 269 | 3,95 |
368 mm | 1.4 x 250 | 142,2 | 91 | 176 | 21,8 |
368 mm | 1.4 x 275 | 187,3 | 171 | 203 | 7,8 |
368 mm | 1.6 x 250 | 257,0 | 248 | 263 | 3,9 |
368 mm | 1.6 x 300 | 272,8 | 264 | 278 | 3,7 |
450 mm | 1.6 x 250 | 256,4 | 244 | 266 | 6,37 |
450 mm | 1.6 x 300 | 277,2 | 269 | 284 | 4,11 |
550 mm | 1.6 x 250 | 233,8 | 208 | 256 | 12,4 |
550 mm | 1.6 x 300 | 269,8 | 259 | 283 | 5,9 |
Due to the reducing performance we did not include the 1.4 springs in our testing with the 450 and 550 mm barrels. Note the standard deviation, from which you can clearly see which barrel is too long for each spring.
