Nerf Guns Customer Reviews

A nice addition to the Nerf Guns N-Strike line of blasters, the Stampede is the second full-auto Nerf Guns. I picked up two of these for my son and I to play with and the Nerf Gunss were a big hit at a Labor Day BBQ. The price may be steep but the Stampede does come with a bunch of nice extras. The other N-Strike auto-blaster is the Vulcan, a belt fed Nerf Guns that fires 25 darts at 3 darts per second depending on battery life. There were many complaints about jams and weight with thisNerf Guns . The Stampede is a nice upgrade. Using the NERF clip system you have a choice of 6, 18, or 35 round clips to choose from (only the 6 round clips are available separately) you can lay down a nice suppressing fire of darts while being able to reload quickly.

The good:
-Aesthetics, this
Nerf Guns just looks cool and I am sure some will mod this blaster to look like a Halo pulse rifle.
-Shield, I wasn't to keen on this feature until playing in a shoot out. This shield offers amazing coverage to where most people shoot at you.
-Distance, the
Nerf Guns uses the direct plunger system like the discontinued Longshot. Out of the box I am getting up to 30 ft. I don't plan on the LS spring mods since the gearing is plastic and they are too expensive to have them break that way.
-Rate of fire, nothing like being able to tag someone with a handful of darts in a few seconds
-Portability, it is about as lumbering as a LS but not as bad as the Vulcan.
-3x 18 -round clips, the blaster goes through darts like mad and its nice that Nerf includes several extra clips so you are not refilling a clip every 6 seconds (theoretical time it would take to go through 18 darts at 3 darts per second).
-Bi-pod handle, modeled after one you would see on real tactical weapons like an M-4, that makes it easier to hold and creates a stable firing platform when deployed.

The bad:
-Portability, sure I put this in the good, but I'm an adult and can carry the 2lbs blaster around for prolonged periods of time, but with 6x D-cell batteries this thing gets HEAVY for little ones like my son. Possible solution is to but AA to D converter cases but that cuts down on battery life also.
-Those thinking of modding the blaster, sure you can remove the AR and have a brass breech, but heavier spring? I mentioned earlier that the gears are plastic and the heavy springs will lead to stripped gears. The other one I heard of is upping the voltage for a higher RoF, but same problem with the Vulcan, stripped gears and a burned out motor.
-NO manual priming, meaning if your batteries die there is no way to fire the blaster
-Rate of fire, sure its a plus but its a double-edged sword. After 10 second you have 30 darts all over and a 6 round clip takes more time to load than shoot.

I like this
Nerf Guns and plan on bringing it to many get-togethers with family so the kids can play with them but something is lost not having to physically prime the blaster for each shot like the other blasters.
