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 Minecraft Heartstealer Sword is a Minecraft Dungeons themed foam sword with a hidden feature: It also shoots Nerf Elite Darts! This is the perfect melee weapon for someone who likes to bring a knife to a gunfight. Surprise!
Nerf hit the ground running with their rapidly growing line of "Orbeez" shooting gel blasters. The Gelfire Legion is the first spring-action blaster in the lineup, but it's no slouch. It features a 130 round hopper and even has Slam-Fire!
This Zombie re-shell of the Nerf Stryfe might be the best one yet. With "power shock" lights and shooting sound effects, coupled with the wacky Zombie Strike aesthetics, this Zombie Strike Stryfe definitely stands out from the crowd!
The Orange Armory SR200 Spring-Powered Blaster is a 3D printed pump-action blaster from Orange Mod Works that uses Worker's Talon Mags system for half-length darts. There's also a Tactical Kit that includes essential add-ons for the blaster.
Another insane blaster in the new X-Shot Insanity line of dart blasters from Zuru, the Mad Mega Barrel is a pump-action blaster with an obnoxiously huge 72 dart rotating drum that cycles through the blaster with each pump of the grip.
The Gryphon is a high quality 3D printed, semi-auto, mag-fed, competition ready, customizable dart blaster. This version is more compact and features an iridescent paintjob and a top-load slot that allows you to top off the mag mid-battle.
The Motortier SMG is a 3D printed, full-auto, shell-ejecting flywheel Nerf gun that's powered by a 3S LiPo and uses a short-dart 30 round double stacked magazine. It is highly reminiscent of the UDM-45 from Call of Duty Infinite Warfare.
Who shot first? It will ALWAYS be you with the Meowser DL-44. This 3D printed replica of Han Solo's Star Wars blaster is built upon OFD's FlyCore tech, shooting half-length darts in full auto fire modes at speeds of up to 50DPS+200 FPS.
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...
