When looking for the best Nerf guns for adults, you might want to skip their dart gun lineup completely. Nerf Rival foregoes the foam darts for "High Impact Rounds," which are basically just foam balls. The easiest way to transition from kid to adult is to switch to balls. Airsoft, paintball, shotput -- all manly, all use balls. The Nemesis is big and bad and very manly.
The best Nerf guns for adults will be one of two things: Overly powerful or Nostalgia inducing. The NERF LMTD Halo Needler blaster definitely falls into the latter category. If you've ever played Halo (or still do), you're going to want to pay attention to this thing. This is the most accurate replica there has ever been of the Covenant Type-33 Needler.
Sometimes the best Nerf guns for adults will be simple office plinkers; small pistol sized Nerf guns that you can keep at the office and annoy your co-workers. Keep a spare at home and drive your wife crazy. The Nerf Rival Fate is a breech-loaded ball blaster with an adjustable rear sight. It's super accurate so you can land that quick sneak shot on your boss/wife.
One of the best Nerf guns for adults isn't even a Nerf gun. Dart Zone is another maker of foam dart guns and up until recently, they've been trailing behind Nerf. Well, no more. This is like when AMD first beat Intel. The Dart Zone MK-1.2 is so powerful it's not even in competition with regular Nerf guns. You need to heavily modify your Nerf gun to keep up with this.
This Nerf gun is only for the ultimate badass. It is state of the badass art. You do NOT want to f**k with it. Me and my squad of ultimate badasses all have one of these Nerf guns. Check it out: The Nerf LMTD Aliens M41-A features an electric dart counter and sound effects ripped straight from the movie. Vwap! Fry half a Nerf Arena with this puppy. Game over, man!
The Nerf Rival Deadpool Kronos is my favorite Nerf gun pistol and one of the best Nerf guns for adults to own. The Kronos' comes in a 2-pack set with twin Kronos Nerf guns. But they're not exactly identical. Different quips from the Merc with a Mouth can be found on each gun. The Nerf Rival Kronos is a single fire, top pistol slide prime blaster with an internal 5 round mag.
From Predator to Terminator 2, if Arnold Schwarzenegger is around there's a minigun somewhere close by. Now you can be Arnold "SchwarzeNerfer" with the epic Nerf Elite Titan, which is a freakin' Nerf minigun! Rapid-fire, 50 dart drum mag and the barrel really spins when you hold down the rev trigger! Rain down a hailstorm of foam darts on your enemies as the rest of your team mates... Get to the choppa!
What better way to pick the best Nerf guns for adults than choosing one they might have actually played with when they were younger? The original Nerf Stampede ECS came out all the way back in 2010 so, yeah, buying them this might put them in their feelings. It's not just for nostalgia, though. The Stampede is actually a pretty cool Nerf gun with a unique firing mechanism.
The best Nerf guns for adults are often those which closely mimic the form and/or function of real steel firearms. And few Nerf pistols come anywhere near as close as this Dart Zone Pro-Series MK-2.1 foam dart gun. Much like a real semi-auto pistol, the MK 2.1 pistol loads in ammo through magazines... fed through the pistol grip!
Go BIG with the Nerf Rival Prometheus and you'll be sending everyone home early at the next Nerf War. It's the Nerf Rival Nemesis, but in chain gun form. Bigger and badder than the Nemesis, it has a hopper that's twice as big for an ammo capacity of 200 rounds. It still shoots just as hard, still shoots at the same velocity, AND it includes a big a** rechargeable battery.
The Talon Claw is a Do-It-Yourself aftermarket Nerf gun that you have to build yourself. The Talon Claw is highly powerful and completely customizable, able to be tailored to your exact needs. 3D Printed PLA meets aluminium in blissful harmony. This is one of the best Nerf guns for adults who like to do it themselves. So tell me, do you like to "Do it yourself?"
One of my favorite Nerf gun pistols of all time, the Hammershot is just FUN. Fans of Westerns will find the Nerf Hammershot is one of the best Nerf guns for adults. Yeehaw! Whether it be gunspinning the Hammershot around your finger, fanning, or dry-firing nonstop -- If you wanted to be a cowboy when you were a kid, there's still time -- get a Nerf Hammershot!
How could I have a list for best Nerf guns for adults without including one for mans best friend? This is the Nerf Dog Tennis Ball Blaster dog toy. Pull back the top priming handle, load the balls and pull the trigger to launch it 50 feet in the air! Your dog is going to flip! Maybe even literally, watch out. When your dog brings the ball back, you can avoid the dog drool and pick the ball up with the muzzle of the blaster!

This motorized dart blaster bow comes straight out of the Minecraft Dungeon and into your hands. With an 8-round mag, semi-auto dart blasting and a drawstring that revs the motors when you pull it back, this bow is definitely one of a kind!
The Worker 22-Dart Banana Mag is one of the absolute best Nerf gun magazines that you can buy, period. It has the AK47 mag style look, it is super high quality and durable, and it's barely any bigger than Nerf's own 18-Dart magazine.
This may not be directly related to NERF, but this Call of Duty Modern Warfare inspired Stim Shot V2 would be an amazing addition to any Nerf War Loadout. It'd be perfect for a Nerf War game type where reviving downed players was an option.
