Nerf Gunz
« on: April 13, 2011, 08:21:18 pm »
      So recently me and my friends made a movie featuring Nerf Guns as the main weapons, but the twist was that although they still fired foam, the bullets did the same damage as real guns!  So there is muzzle flare and blood everywhere and quite a fun filled movie :] I am still working on the effects, but this movie also increased me and my friends interest in Nerf Guns, and just the other Saturday my friends (I was working) participated in a Zombie vs Human large scale game at our college that took place for the whole day, in which the humans had to locate information caches, rescue scientists and technicians, all the while fighting off the growing zombie hoard with a wide arsenal of Nerf Guns! 

Anyway, my interest has also been peeked, so I have decided to buy this gun, the Nerf CS35 Raider!



Its got a 35 bullet barrel style magazine, with pump action and awesomeness ^^ I was debating on whether to get this gun or the Stampede, which has automatic fire but takes 6D batteries, and only has an 18 bullet clip.  In the end I decided on this one :]  Me and my friends are already planning to have a few battles of our own!

So what about you?  Do anything with Nerf?  Airsoft?  General battle games around your college?

Now you just need to mod it for range and faster  more accurate fire.

Me and my friend just tried to mod his gun and had a really hard time, we ended up having to take some parts from a ballpoint pen in order to fix it after the spring popped all of the parts out of the gun and we lost some pieces :P And after we tried attaching tape to certain parts and stretching the spring, we were reluctant to drill holes in the gun itself.

There are pretty good tutorials on the internet I've read/seen.
I would do this for myself but I don't have the money and my parents won't let me

Also you might want to make custom bullets. If made right they have better range/power than regular nerf bulets but they are a little dangerous(stefans)

Yeah we found good tutorials, we just aren't very good at modding :P And making custom bullets might be a viable idea, although they probably wouldn't be allowed in tournament games :P

They might be if you make a certain kinds. I remember looking at these tournaments before. I thought they said that stefans were allowed. I'm not sure if they allow heavily modded guns though, so make your mods invisible so they don't suspect ;)

I think I have one from the 90s that holds four (!) bullets and is leaky.

It's kind of overdone if you ask me...just an opinion tho

Yes but on and off so. I couldn't find any tournaments in my area for people my age and my brother lost almost all of my official nerf bullets so now all I have is messed up versions of stefans(tape instead of hot glue and a safety cover so I font hurt anyone)


EDIT:@Darl most default nerf guns aren't very good. They only become good with custom bullets and mods

Hmm...anyone have one of those ancient "laser" (IR beam) tag sets?  I have a few of those and they still work ;D
