I recently published a buyer's guide article here about the 10 Best Nerf Guns For Toddlers and Small Children because sometimes there's just no stopping the little ones when they have their mind set on something. And if they see their older sibling (or you) playing with a Nerf gun, there's basically no stopping them from getting their hands on the thing.
So, if you'd rather embrace their curiosity, get them a Nerf gun that's small and weak and suitable for them. I mean, right? That used to be tricky and hard to do, but it looks like the future holds a different fate for the little ones who want to be Nerfers. Nerf recently introduced a new line of Nerf guns called Nerf Elite Junior which is for even younger Nerfers than Nerf's usually 8+ demographic. These new dart blasters are now labeled as being suitable for 6 year old children. The Nerf Elite Junior products are smaller, with even smaller handles, and they feature very easy, low force pull or pump to prime blasters. Epic win.
The Nerf Rival Hera is a beautiful Goddess-like Nerf Rival Stryfe. Semi-automatic High-Impact Rounds come flying out of the Hera as fast as you can pull the trigger. Then load another mag into the grip and do it all over again!
A super compact CQB style Nerf gun, the KM9 Unicorn is a high power pump-action springer blaster that resembles the real steel Intratec Tec-9 machine pistol. Made of highly durable nylon with full metal internals, the Unicorn is rock solid!
Based off of the Tactical Submachine Gun from Fortnite, this modified Nerf gun has been given the full once-over, including a tactical paintjob and a full re-wire, including upgraded motors, flywheel cage, and flywheels. Hits at 120+ FPS.
This heavily modded and expertly painted Dart Zone Pro MK-1.1 blaster has full metal internals, courtesy of Worker, and a mag-well adapter from the Max Stryfer for improved cross-compatibility. It also comes with a Zaurko UCS SCAR barrel.
If a Nerf Stryfe and Nerf Rampage had a baby and then that baby had a baby with the Nerf Glowshot, this would be that blaster. It's a side loading Nerf Stryfe with a sick set of glow lights underneath. Perfect for Night Nerf Wars!
YouTuber MrBeast has teamed up with NERF to bring you this Nerf Pro Gelfire x MrBeast. Sporting his vibrant signature colors, it shoots gel rounds from its 300 capacity hopper in full or semi-auto modes. It also includes 20,000 gel rounds!
The Nerf Hyper Mach-100 is another high capacity, hopper-fed, full-auto blaster that's battery powered and shoots small round balls at high velocities, up to 110 FPS. If you liked the Nerf Rival Perses, you're probably gonna like this too!
The Nerf Ultra Speed is the fastest firing Ultra blaster. Literally. They had to develop new custom 12-dart speed mags just to keep up with the Ultra Speed. So this is the Nerf gun to get if you just gotta go fast. Ricky Bobby approved.
The Worker Phoenix is the Nerf MP7. It's a full auto, mag fed, submachine gun class Nerf blaster with a triple flywheel cage and 6 upgraded motors. Pop in a LiPo battery and the Phoenix can shoot its half-length darts at over 160 FPS. Wow.
