Nerf hit the ground running with their first Nerf Rival release of 2023. The Nerf Rival Forerunner continues the trend of solid blasters in the Accu-Rival line. This series of Nerf guns is part of the "Most Accurate Rival System" or MARS, as I call it. The Nerf MARS line of blasters is supposed to be more accurate than anything before it... This is akin to the Nerf Elite AccuStrike line of Nerf guns. The Forerunner follows in the footsteps of the excellent Nerf blasters before it, like the Nerf Rival Pathfinder and the Nerf Rival Fate. It's also highly reminiscent of the Nerf Rival Takedown from a few years ago, but with a standard pistol grip instead of the sloped shotgun grip the Takedown has.
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!
I see a Nerf Fortnite Infantry Rifle and I want it painted blaaaack. Ahem. This modified Nerf Fortnite IR comes with a more tactical, custom paint job and a full 2S LiPo rewire with upgraded motors, cage and flywheels. Shoots at 120+ FPS.
The Rekt OpFour CO2 Powered Foam Dart Launcher is an off-brand semi-auto Nerf gun that highly resembles an M4 carbine, both in shape and size. The OpFour is powered by double 12g CO2 cartridges, which are loaded into the buffer tube stock.
The Nerf Fortnite Flare Dart Blaster is the flare gun from Fortnite. (Duh!) It's a single shot, pull-to-prime, Mega dart blaster. It features break-open dart loading and includes 3 Mega Darts. The Nerf War applications for this are endless
The Worker Harrier is the best injection-molded spring powered blaster ever made. Period, no comma. The Harrier is a super smooth operating mag-fed springer with exceptional performance and build quality. This is an AWESOME blaster.
If you show up on any spectrum, let it be the Dart Zone Spectrum. This motorized blaster is often referred to as the "Stryfe killer" and nearly lives up to the hype. If you don't plan on modding, the Spectrum is actually the better buy.
The Coathanger from SpitfireProducts is a compact, 3D printed, competitive short-dart Nerf gun with a proprietary wire-hook plunger rod/catch system that gives the blaster its name and also makes priming the 200 fps blaster buttery smooth.
Before the Nailbiter, the Nerf Alien Menace Voidcaster was here and it was pretty great. Like the Nailbiter, the Voidcaster is a double-action semi-auto blaster with a fast fire rate and the ability to dual wield! And it looks awesome!
The Fire Phoenix is a Nerf gun pistol that fires half-length darts and feeds magazines in through the pistol grip. This is a "cheaper alternative" (aka knockoff) to the premium ZWQ S200 Fire Rat blaster. The benefit is it's MUCH cheaper.
