The Modern Warfare 2 remake coming out has really got me feeling pretty nostalgic. So when I saw this Chinese off-brand Nerf gun that looked like a UMP45, it caught my attention. It's called the Xing Shen Fire Phoenix and it's actually pretty cool. This UMP45 clone includes a 15 dart stick mag, a set of ABS sights, and a mock EOTech sight on top. The toy dart gun features a PDW/CQB style collapsible shoulder stock, which is pretty cool.
The foam dart flinger is available on Amazon in two different colorways, but there's no sign of extra mags or extra of these custom darts. The mags can be found elsewhere on the internet for about 8 bucks, but I couldn't locate any extra darts for this thing. And the darts this dart blaster uses are a custom 3/4th size foam dart and that is actually not that cool. Luckily the Nerf gun comes with 100 of these weirdo darts, so they should last a good while. Additionally, you could make your own by using one of the included darts as a guide and cutting regular Elite sized darts down a little bit. Not too bad.
This knockoff Nerf UMP45 Submachine gun can also fire multiple darts at once if you pump the grip multiple times. This is great, since when you try to do that with a regular Nerf gun, it'll usually end up jamming the blaster. Either that or you won't even be able to pump the grip more than once. Nerf uses a lot of internal safety locks to disable any features on their blasters they deem unsafe.
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.

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 M1 Bread Machine is a novelty Nerf gun pistol with a very impressive gimmick: with the push of the mag release button, it ejects the spring loaded box magazines with excessive force, sending them flying more than a foot into the air!
The Nerf Rival Khaos is already a beastly Nerf gun in stock form. This one has been completely modded and re-wired for 3S LiPo batteries and given a sick blood splatter paintjob. Includes a working chainsaw attachment, a la Gears of War.
This 3rd party Nerf-inspired blaster is based on the good ol Nerf Modulus. Luckily, the Modulus is an excellent blaster. My experience with blasters like these has always been very positive. More powerful with less resistance.
Sometimes you just need a basic, bottom-b*tch, Nerf gun pistol. Something fun, reliable, and very cheap. It used to be the Nerf Strongarm, but now it seems like it's the Commander RD6. Get it for yourself, get it for your kid, or whoever.
