Criterion number one when choosing a good Nerf blaster for Nerf War is to choose a blaster you love. If you choose your favorite blaster, you're already comfortable with the quirks of how it operates. You can quickly reload it, probably without even looking. And you can clear any jam or malfunction without a second guess. This is why you should choose a blaster you are very familiar with for a Nerf War, and that's why I chose to go with the Alpha Trooper for my first pick.
Criterion number two, use a blaster that you can easily modify to become a legendary Nerf blaster. And the Modulus Recon, just like the Retaliator before it, is a perfect canvas for all your Nerf War mods. A pump grip, an extended stock, a stronger spring, maybe slam-fire, and you're good to go.
Criterion three, start with a blaster with legendary status already. If you don't think you can pull off all the mods necessary to make the Recon a legendary Nerf warring blaster, start with a blaster that's already legendary. You can take a Longshot and buy a couple of aftermarket mod kits, including a breech kit, a pump grip, spring replacement and more. Then you'll have a super powerful, insanely accurate, Nerf War legend of a blaster. Easy.
Four, something that you can actively load while engaged in battle. During a Nerf War, lots of people like to use these pump action open cylinder type blasters that they can constantly reload by shoving darts into the front. I understood the practicality of using such a blaster, but I was never a fan. Enter the Nerf Infinus, a full auto Nerf blaster with "Speed-Load Technology." It's like a Rapidstrike or HyperFire but you can constantly feed darts into a loading port behind the rear sight of the blaster and top off your mag. Neat.
Five, a Nerf gun with a HUGE ammo reserve. If you don't want to bother constantly loading darts like with the Nerf Infinus, maybe you should take a look at the Nerf Rival Nemesis blaster. The Nemesis has a huge tank on top where you can load 100 Rival rounds! As if that wasn't enough, with a few aftermarket mod kits, you can easily double the ammo capacity of this beastly blaster. Outstanding!
Maybe you don't want to worry about anything. You don't want to be constantly topping off your blaster, or having to carry an overly large blaster with 100+ rounds, maybe you don't even want to have to go through the trouble of modding anything. If you just want to grab a literal powerhouse of a blaster and shoot with supreme confidence and accuracy, grab this blaster. Although, you may want to check with your local Nerf group to see if this thing is allowed. It hits HARD.
If you're bored with the lackluster or undersized stock pump-action foregrips included with your blaster, this Knuckle Guard Pump Grip for the Nexus Pro and Stryker is the perfect way to spice things up on your favorite Dart Zone blaster.
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.
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 Dart Zone Omnia Pro is a high performance, flywheel powered, rechargeable battery operated, half-length dart blaster with a select-fire switch to alternate between semi-auto, burst, or full automatic foam flinging, all at over 150 FPS!
These Nerf Bunkr Combat Carrier Cases work perfectly for under bed storage of Nerf guns and all your Nerf gun attachments and other accessories. Measuring 20" by 14", these cases also have built in targets on the inside of the flip up lid.
They say third time's a charm and they were right with the Nerf Modulus Recon MK III blaster. The Recon is better than it's ever been and better looking, too! This is a blaster built for someone who likes building onto blasters. The Recon M...
The Nerf Overwatch Soldier 76 Blaster is a fully automatic Rival blaster with a 30 round hopper. If you're a really huge Overwatch fan and you want a Nerf blaster, this is probably the most battle effective option out there right now. Nice!
This one of a kind Nerf integration is the Official Winner of the MergeMasters 3 Mod Contest. It combines a Nerf Modulus, a Nerf Rayven, a Nerf Longshot, Nerf Mega Centurion and the Mega Magnus into one certified EPIC Nerf gun mod.
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.
