The darts are made out of foam, doesnt hurt but you never know.

It is not that expensive, ranging from RM50 - RM130.

Ah, finally... A thread for NERF Blasters... So glad that it's finally here in M'sia!

This gun is that each time fire also need to pull? No auto fire?

Some is rapid fire which is either gas powered or battery powered.

Normal ones are spring action

I saw at Toy r US KLCC got sell tis , but cant find the big blaster , that the coolest here , but dont think got rapid fire rite? and wonder will cost how much?

the big blaster is called the long shot!.

i know in TRU US there is one blaster that can fire rapidly.

some can multi fire, means fire all 20 darts at once.

Oh there is the NERF Vulcan which is the gatling gun.!

This is the Refill Packs I bought last night... Sadly, I found out that the Micro Darts and Tag Darts cannot be used with the Recon CS-6...



My NERF haul this past Monday...

the recn CS-6 uses streamline just like the long shot

That's the problem loh... Streamline Darts is not available as a Refill Pack mah...

I think its time to mod!! the nerfs!!

cut the air restrictors out.

muhahaha

I just bought a MAVERICK , damn cool , going to paint it . How to MOD it ? Any website , i also like tat RECON , where u get and how much??

Added on July 16, 2008, 9:03 pmThe recon can rapid fire?

This post has been edited by pcomet: Jul 16 2008, 09:03 PM

no rapid fire for Recon CS-6.

modding means removing the air restrictors..u can see them in youtube.

i forget the websites already.

they mod till damn power lol

---

Added on July 16, 2008, 9:11 pmbtw all bought from either TRU or Parkson.

so retail price lo

Congrats on ur new haul, mate...

Recon is selling at RM89.90 each, available at TRU and Parkson at the moment...

Oh cool... NERF thread... The guns looked really cool, it's nice to hear they've finally landed here (I first heard of them sometime ago thru a Duke Nukem modification... wondering what on earth a NERF was) Especially fond of the Maverick as that was what Megatron from Transformers Classic was based on...

No photos in action? heehee

SO which series got rapid fire and powerful?
How about the long shot, the blur color like sniper gun.

rapid frie ones are like the Magstike(Ironman blaster) fire 10 darts rapidly. but first u ahve to pump at least 20 times. its air action.

the long shot is the sniper. single shot. single reload. 6 bullets magazine.

these blasters are mainly made for kids. therefore they have air restrictors, to make them powerful..self mod. and remove the air restrictors.

Warning: Do no mod the darts. They can coz injuries if do so

how much is the darts pack supposed to be? the guns are not expensive I am afraid the refill pack kills hehehee...

each dart cost around rm1

the dart pack is priced at RM29.90

30 darts is alot. relaoding will kill you not the price. lol

there is some custom made darts on ebay which cost even cheaper.but must mod gun to use them.

glad u open up 1 here...waiting for longshot to land...hahaha

Wooo! Finally... A Nerf thread! I got my Longshot amd Maverick last year from ebay. Here it is:


Assault Rifle mode


Sniper Rifle mode


Maverick


Longshot sniping outside my toilet window. Noone will see it coming. Hehehehe.

Both also not automatic, though i REALLY REALLY love how you reload the longshot. bolt action like real sniper.

Also, I didnt see anyone post the pic of the Nerf Vulcan. So here it is. Damn syok wei.....


- Fully Automatic - check!
- 25 chain fed bullets - check!
- 6 D batteries - check!
- Tripod - check!

But one thing though... this thing gonna be a killer to reload. hahahaha!

dang, these guns look sexy. although my missus will think i've went back 20 years my age.... i'd love to get one.

but after that, who wants to play cowboys and indians?

Wow.... looks nice man. I like especially the sniper rifle!

Damn!! you got the long shot already.

jealous!

hows the range?

woooot
a nerf thread
i bought maverick last week from a etoyz
has been shooting my wife since hahahahaha
she enjoys being shot at

@William7

range? hmmm under 15m or so and it can still hurt ah..... above that.. can stil be accurate, tapi kena aim properly.

summore, have to jaga the streamline dart more carefully, cuz can be bent and scraped easier then the normal micro darts.

ALTHOUGH.... the front part SUPPOSE to be able to work as a seperate gun... but i can't get it to work. oh well...

wating for the extra streamlines to come in!

hmm i hope more ppl will get hook onto NERF and we might just be able to organize a NERF war!

wow...u got the longshot...and my goodness...Nerf Vulcan is sweet looking...

This post has been edited by iman_210: Jul 23 2008, 09:55 AM

Welcome to the NERF Thread, mate! Glad to know there's more NERF fans here in LYN...

U should go out and get one, if there's enough people, we'll have our own little "war"...

Cool, dude, now go out and get the Recon and Firefly!

i really feel like getting one of this man...damn cool those blaster....maybe for a starter will get a maverick...

buy it and we could organise our own little wargames...

Wargames! that would be awesome

would be a little hassle if the steamlines dont come in...

then have to buy form ebay.. =(

hurmmm been eyeing this latest trend,,,kinda a awesome given the physical appearance and the shooting feels....a repaint of its "high" colour would be nicer

Nef war sounds kool. have to stock up on streamline bullets and extra clips first. ahahhaa. Also... hopefully its during my holidays when im back in kl. ahahahha

i think repainting the Nerf Blaster would make it look nicer but it would result to law enforcement...hopfully not.

I think the reason why Nerf Blaster is able to be taken out and play in the open sunny day is the colours.

But wateva said....painting it into camo or some cool kick ass colours still is awesome!

wa... awesome stuff u gusy have there.
how much does it cost, the gun, the bullet. What type of games can be played?

NERF Blasters cost from RM59.90 to RM300++, depending on model...

It doesn't use bullets, its ammo is a type of "soft darts"...

finally got my hand on a Recon CS-6 with bonus scope from parkson...

---

Added on July 25, 2008, 4:53 pmbut too bad i cant find any refills for it...i understand that it uses a diff type of dart other than the micro type right??

This post has been edited by sowhon: Jul 25 2008, 04:53 PM

Hey i was wondering how painful the darts are ? Like for example, the long shot... if shot at someone 10 metres away... will it be painful ?

Curious eh... wana get one myself. hahaha. The pain and range factor is kinda important.

u wanan shot ur parents ar? whahahaha. dun shot wrong place...

@noob4life

Well NERF blasters are made for children unlike airsoft, there isnt much pain factor in them. There is some range but not sniping range like airsoft.

There is no FPS in Nerf as well.

But the main point is, its just a legal tagging game thats able to replace airsoft in Malaysia since its banned.

Oh man, just want to grap it after I saw those video clip in youtube there.... But is it work with battery or ??? something else? Those video show it shotting quite fast...

spring load mate

battery only with the vulcan others is either air pressured or spring loaded

Thank you Wiliam7, i found info on official web and watch youtube video there...... Very nice PLay in room also nice

Next time will walk around and check it out But is it easy to find in toy store ??

They are easily obtained in Toys R Us and Parkson.

I state the price range as well in the main page.

Hehe really want to go and try
Nowadays always see info in official web there
Can't touch but just see also happy

God Dammit... when William7 opened this thread... i straight kena poison kau kau.

Now thinking of getting myself 1 Maverick and LongShot.
Seen alot of ReCon and Firefly but not those 2 i'm interested. Any ideas on the location i can get some?

Not enough poison... watch this




This post has been edited by narutokun83: Jul 27 2008, 10:53 AM

Woh enlightening reply... Thnx bro... i might wanna get one myself hahaha. They look very cool... And no im not shooting my parents...
Shoot my neighbour's kitty.... bwahahaha.

But if buy d gotta keep it sumwhere... if my parents see me buying that... god knows wat will happen.

hahahhaha.... nice vid

Nowthats a poisonous video!

we should have somehitng like that.

I didnt know nerf vulcan is out..dang that thing is cool!

Hahaha! This video is awesome!

Maverick is available at Parkson and TRU, mate... Longshot still haven't arrived yet...

Hmm is it recon and long shot is same shoting range? Feel like these 2 gun same same when I watch video on youtube there.

It is well the same.

Jsut that the long shot is easier to reload due to the bolt action.

but the cool factor is there.

Depending on your kind of flavours both appeal to different liking.!

I did some research on the net one the strength and durability of Nerf guns... and found some pretty cool stuff.

Now i assume everyone will want to do a basic mod with their Nerfs... instructions to these mods are easily found on YouTube or any other Nerf fansite. ( You will be surprised at how freaking popular it is in the US... )

Go google for the pics... ima lazy to upload em here. =.=

1. Nerf Firefly
- Average firepower, rate of fire and range

- Glowing darts kinda a waste of time... why do u want ur opponents to see ur bullets at night ?

Not much info on this... sorry. XD


2. Nerf Recon
Pros
- Average firepower and range
- Good rate of fire
- Good customisation ( the rail system lets u add many add-ons... hence the box says : " Be Prepared For Any Mission ! " XD )
Cons
- The stock is flimsy... its designed for kids anyway and might not stand up to rough handling
- The flip-up sight is totally useless. Get a laser pointer instead.

Overall : Only buy this if u are serious about modding... cause there are Nerfs that do alot better than this... WITHOUT any mods. The Recon can only do well with lots of modding. ( www.nerfhaven.com )


3. Nerf Nite Finder EX-3
Pros
- Amazing firepower and range for its price... ( believe me its stronger than a Recon ) very easy to mod, strong built quality
- A simple modification can make this pistol go further than the Long Shot... ALOT further...
Cons
- The laser is only useful at about 15 ft though... any further and its inaccurate.
- Slow rate of fire.

Excellent gun. Nuff said.

4. Nerf Longshot
Pros
- Good firepower and range.... about 30 ft.... but for its large size its quite shameful lol. Expected the range to be much longer....
- Cool reloading mechanism ( like a real sniper )
- The quick reload clips are very useful
- Goes up to 100 ft with simple mods ( www.nerfhaven.com )

Cons
- Bulky and big ( you dont want ur girlfren seeing you lugging this toy home, do you ? )
- In my ( PERSONAL ) opinion, the price is a little too much for its performance... mod it if u ever want to get it.


5. Nerf Maverick
- Good firepower and range
- Excellent rate of fire ( it works like a revolver... each time u cock and fire, the barrel automatically turns to the next bullet... so all u need to do is to cock again to fire )
- Once u remove the air restrictors it can get you about 35-40 ft range... not bad.

Overall a good gun.

Well i havent got time to check out other guns... but these few seem to be the more popular ones. Especially the Maverick and Nite Finder...
Hope u guys find this useful. Bought myself a Maverick today... very fun lol.

Thank you noob4life for the info , ya that long shot reload very ...
But look like hard to find long shot also, hmm maybe get 1 Maverick play play or recon

Thanks for sharing the info, dude!

Nice info.

I might try the night finder =)

I modded my maverick, will post up my pic later.

Waa start modded already, William7?
Hmm I scare later i mod will broke the gun
Is it ok to talk about mod? Quite danger

www.nerfhaven.com

Check this site out bro... they teach ALOT about modding... and there are always ppl to help you if u go wrong.

T-T now haven't get a gun also
I have check that web when u post those info noob4life, those modding ...
But for me sure play for long time then only mod

^ No probs... haha.

Modding my Maverick now... will tell u guys results and progress soon...

let us know of the results...c how much u can potentialise moving out the air restrictor.

Finally get 1 nerf gun for own
Today i go Toy R us there grap 1 recon, but no extra dart sell..... anyone know where can get those dart for recon ???
I just see recon, Firefly, Nite Finder,Secret Strike& dart tag, didn't see Maverick and long shot ( look like hard to see it ) in 1 U Toy r US

Added on August 1, 2008, 12:21 amHaha sorry guys, i pull back but didn't push back fully that's why can't shot

About the modding dart can see here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JlqP3R2afc,
easy and simple, ( that video music too loud can't heard what he say )

Totally full DIY dart is here http://www.instructables.com/id/SK5NG0ZF0X...P/?comments=all

And my beam selector ( red dot ) already got dust inside...... don't know how to take off

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 1 2008, 12:29 AM

vince.

Which blaster are u using?

William7, mine is recon , today try few round in the morning, I'm sure many ppl play it will want to take out the air restrictor, but I no brave to do that
No good in DIY & modding

Next time want to get maverick, but last few day when i buy recon didn't see it T_T

Just try out that beam selector.... very blur on far Maybe try modding with normal laser point that use for presentation ?? Not bad also

Guys, is it ok that my dart slot inside there and didn't for long time or I need to take it out?

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 1 2008, 10:53 AM

vince

i think u jsut need to unjammed ur jammed dart

when u load to armed the recon, there is a black plastic there, open it to umjammed ur jammed dart .

yeah once u remove ur air restrictors, ur dart can go extra few feet.

=)

Haha, first time to play nerf, i just pull back and reload then didn't push back and shot..... nothing happen
Now only know need to push back then only disable the safety lock.... bang >>>>>

About modding, any 1 already mod for remove the air restrictor??

I am gonna do that for my magstirke and meverick.

recon and firefly soon.

the recon needs more firepower!

Wow then good luck to you first william7, remember post those picture o
Ya recon need more firepower

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 1 2008, 05:26 PM

Did 2 simple mods to my maverick... 1 is to remove the air restrictors ( NO cutting required... very easy job )
But the firepower produced isnt what i expected though... just an additional 1 metre or so. The maverick is one of the harder guns to mod cuz of the rotating barrel... the rotating barrel has lots of gaps in which the air can escape... thus reducing the amount of power that goes into each dart... Need to find for more mod ideas...

http://nerfhaven.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4952&st=0
I followed the steps mentioned in the link above... but i only removed the springs and the three-pronged bits from the barrel chambers ( and thus there is no need to cut anything out ) ... i then placed the long orange plastic piece ( which holds the darts ) back into the barrel chambers, and screwed everything back together.
What i got was : around 1 metres improved range ( better than nothing... lol... ), much louder firing sound. ( more chi kek la... haha )

Here is the pic of the pieces i removed for your reference :




Next...anyone can guess what i just modded here ?

Wa like you guys like to mod
noob4life, can I know where still got maverick ??? T-T

Is it got any accessory sell on local ?? like scope, dart clip and others?

Is it posible that, change the recon's red dot light to normal laser pointer? ( presentation use that kind. )?
Or anyone know how it work can share with me ???

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 2 2008, 10:26 AM

once you guys remove the air restrictors, u can then purchase the cheap darts form ebay which are heavier and of coz 2% more lethal than the current darts hehe.

They sell them by a 100s. pratcally we can use them for NERF WAR!

Added on August 2, 2008, 10:29 amif its not a trouble can NERF fans pls PM me what blaser they have atm?

I wanna put it up on the first page! gonna make calculations then maybe organize a WAR!!

This post has been edited by William7: Aug 2 2008, 10:29 AM

Oh ho, william7 --- here my info
Only 1 fully pure recon cs-6 .....

searching maverick + accessory like dart clip, dart and other if have .

---

Added on August 3, 2008, 1:58 pmWilliam7, add 1 more gear for my list ----- > maverick Thank you

After I try my maverick. noob4life, i know what you mod at 2nd picture there, your barrel can come out more and reload fast.

Try few round maverick.... start feel my recon no power already .....
Anyone who want try nerf gun, can go try maverick if want power shot, but I still like the recon because of the reload action ( slot dart in clip) very nice same like long shot ( sure long shot more nice )

And .... today I saw recon box with scope...... T-T why my recon box don't have .....

---

Added on August 3, 2008, 11:49 pmI like nerf gun after c this video

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 3 2008, 11:49 PM

i got a little "mengular" time after an appointment at menara maxis this morning. wondered into parkson looking for transformers and gundam, came across these guns.

dang they are nice!! . i've heard of them before, but never got the time to check them out. but after today, i'm definitely joining the club. it just feels so damn cool. good prices too. if i didn't have to report back to work, i would've definitely get one already.

was really incline in getting the Recon. but the lack of extra ammo and lack of power (thanks to your reviews) is a complete let down. i'm definitely getting myself a maverick though.

where can you get the streamline darts anyway? it only comes with the clips right?

zeroglyph,I had go to some place to check, I can't see streamline dart, but u can get those micro dart or other to mod it become streamline, just cut those plastic or rubber head then just left dart body then already can be a simple streamline dart, you can check the link that I post about the mod dart.

And welcome to the nerf war, zeroglyph


Just now test few round on recon cs-6 mini scope .... quite accurate, but I test in my room just few feet only . If I slot that mini scope to maverick.... really don't know how to aim lol always miss.

This post has been edited by vincent09: Aug 4 2008, 10:43 PM

Wow, seems like more and more people are joining up the NERF Thread... That's great!

Hope still continue ppl come
Hmm just like to get some clip for my recon ..but no sale at here

Added on August 9, 2008, 11:49 amdang! i jsut saw Vulcan in ebay!! its out!! 3 darts per second

thats pretty awesome

require 6 X D size batteries omg....expensive

This post has been edited by William7: Aug 9 2008, 11:49 AM

Wasai 6x D size batteries......
Man, I stay back look for long shot, vulcan dart look like not same also.
No streamline? Go mod by using those dart tag, micro dart ...

vulcan is using normal darts but jsut come with the belt..

ermm guys,
if you all ever gonna host nerf war,
do u all accept homemade nerf arms?
and usage of homemade ammo, u guys ok with that? or theres gonna be weight limit for em?

im kinda of bored and gatal tangan to try make some homemades in nerfhaven.

This post has been edited by xelrix: Aug 9 2008, 02:08 PM

Well xelrix,

we havent tried a nerf war yet, mainly becoz we dont ahve enough members for now.

but it would be fun jsut have a war whehter its modded or not..but modded a lil unfair la ahahhaha.

but when nerf war gets bigger i think some rules should be instilled...for now..it FREE FOR ALL!!

?? I though the vulcan dart not same
For me, nerv war sure is use homemake dart, if use original 1... u will shot and pick at the same time

vulcan is the same dart.

but the refill comes with the belt.

if thats so, get ready for some large,sniping, uber longcat barrel, nerf bow!!! [already drawn a rough plan for it, dunno if gonna work or not]
anyone know whereto get those foam cable thingy around jb/skudai?

Hmm mostly can see those ppl DIY dart will need to use a thing call baker rod or what what backing.
Is it can find at here ?????

hmm,

does anyone have any suggestion where is a good place for NERF war?

well that place got to be a little deserted as we dont want ppl to steal the darts...

Wa William7, u really want open nerf war ???
I never see nerf war , maybe go see other how to nerf war first

i think msia Nerf community pretty small..

maybe got private nerf wars that we never heard about...

How you guy aiming those nerf gun when shoting ? or didn't aim just shot by feeling on the target ???

Recon cs-6 aim by mini scope + the front small mark can be 80% hit the target in 10 feet +- ( far than this no so sure because my room not so big ), but I have try more than 10 feet the dart will run away from your aiming point.... ( maybe too light ) you can see the dart turn abit to other side.

Maverick.... shot by feeling, put those recon-cs6 led point, mini scope won't easily aim.

What's the current price for Maverick?

How good this gun?How long it can shoot??
