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.
Want to keep up with the hard hitting, heavily modded Nerf guns at the next Nerf War, but aren't into modding? Get the MK 1.2 from Dart Zone's Pro Series of foam dart guns. This thing hits harder and shoots further than any stock Nerf gun.
The Worker Nightingale Pro is a Nerf gun so realistic that Amazon won't even ship it to my state! It's a compact pistol that uses a 3S LiPo to propel the half-length darts through its mini-flywheels at over 125 FPS. How epic is that?
This M4 Carbine style Nerf gun knockoff is modeled after the Nerf Stryfe, but with an included rechargeable Li-On battery. It features an M4 extended barrel with angled foregrip and an M4 style buttstock. Includes 2 PMAGs and 200 darts.
Another M134 Minigun styled blaster, the Feidama Gatling Gun "Soft Bomb Launcher" features dynamic lights and sound to simulate firing. It also includes a 60-dart ammo chain, 80 suction tip darts, a tripod, and a rechargeable battery pack!
The Mayfly is a heavily modified Nerf Maverick blaster that's now semi-auto! It runs off a LiPo battery, uses Nightingale flywheels, high power LOKI motors, and is now Talon mag-fed. Yup, it fires half-length darts at 130 feet per second!
On eBay right now you will find what I refer to as my "Great White Buffalo." This is the Nerf gun that has eluded me forever, the one that got away. The Crimson Longshot is the rarest and most sacred of all of the Nerf Longshot blasters...
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!
With the release of the X-Shot Longshot, Zuru has finally ascended into short-dart supremacy. The X-Shot Longshot is a bullpup blaster that can use short or long darts and hits over 120 FPS out of the box. Did I mention it has Slam-Fire?
The Nerf Rayven Stinger is a rare, hard to find, limited edition Nerf gun that features a super compact bullpup design with an integrated shoulder stock. This one has been upgraded and modded to run off of a high-discharge 3S LiPo battery.
