I was playing Nerf war with a friends child at the weekend. now I am the proud owner of two guns for me and the wife. The only downside I have found is losing all my bullets !

My gun is now stripped down ready for a repaint in Colonial marine colours cool

the new oversize Magnus is good. takes huge bullets the size of 12 cartridges. with an internal 3 round mag.

The ultimate Executive blaster.

Stripped and rebuilt it, removed the restrictor, before I put in an additional spring from a smaller pistol in there nad now she will raise a welt within 6 feet biggrin

When I visited my sister recently, I noticed that the batteries had been removed from the Nerf gun we bought him. Suspect he'd been a little st with it hehe

Man, this thread makes me excited for when tiny FD3Si gets older. I'm thinking 17 months is a little young.

Loving the Tremors style artillery wall biggrin

Me and wifey are expecting our first child in January so I should be growing up, but this hasn't stopped us taking advantage of an offer at Argos. Half price on the Nerf Elite Stockade guns (down from £30 to £15) so I have bought two and some extra "shells".

When I say wife and I have bought them, she might not know about them yet. But she will be given a gun and if she wants to defend herself, that is her choice hehe

ETA - £30 down to £15, so £30 for two. Spend over £25 on Nerf at Argos, and you get 12 free darts. Then I got another 75 darts for £9.75, so all in, I got everything for under £40

With the electric ones, you can modify the battery compartment wiring to take a 9Volt battery. The motors can handle it and it pretty much doubles their strength - well worth looking into if you're interested in blinding members of your family/co-workers.

Or you can modify it with an RC battery pack or two: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dokbdPPqkFU

Fooking awesome!

If I wished to pop to Argos tomorrow to kit up for myself, 9yo daughter and 7yo boy, what would you fine gentleman recommend? Up to £100 for three guns and ammo...

Just bought the lad a NERF Rough Cut (8 shot spring pump action dart gun) for his birthday and have to say I'm impressed, as Argos have a 20% off sale at the moment I may have to go and get myself one (or something similar) and of course some pollycarb safety glasses for everyone in the house (oh and a load more ammo).



Anyone else NERF'd?
You can buy upgraded springs.....
