Nerf Rapid Fire Gun That Will Help You Win The Nerf War

By Ledley Withenshaw

The Nerf Raider CS 35 is the new dart blaster gun to come from the NERF workshop. It's an innovation on previous guns because it has a rapid fire option that does not require batteries to work. It bears a close similarity to a semi-automatic or pump action gun, except with soft darts as rounds. This is sure to help you dominate any nerf battles you have lined up this year or the next. Here are brief rundown of what you get in your Rapid Raider CS-35.

The common drawback with a full on nerf war was a limited firepower. Sure, you could carry a few darts with you and reload but there was nothing akin to automatic fire. This has changed with the CS-35.

It belongs to the N-Strike line of guns, meaning it is not a velcro tipped dart. It can be easily adjusted in the stock so that anyone can fire it comfortably. It looks like a standard Nerf gun except that it has a drum magazine attached. The drum magazine holds 35 darts.

The gun can be fired in single shot mode or rapid fire. You know all about single shot so I will go on to the rapid fire mode. The rapid fire mode uses a pump action to generate air pressure that will propel the dart (you can get a fair distance with a dart, across a medium sized back garden). By keping the finger depressed on the trigger, you can effect an automatic (or semi automatic) fire rate each time you pump the stock. Therefore firing can be done as rapidily as you work the pump action.

The magazine comes in a see through plastic so that you can view how many rounds you have fired and when you have to reload. Reloading the drum magazine can take a bit of getting used to and will take time initially but the more you do it, the easier it will get. If you are involved in a full on nerf war, then make sure you have a nice hideaway where you can go to reload.

You can buy the Raider CS 35 separately or as part of a starter kit that comes with an extra 65 darts (100 in total). Although the value pack is more money, it is a better option as you are bound to lose a few darts here and there.

This dart blaster gun would be a perfect stocking filler or Christmas gift for children 8 and up. It's probably more aimed at boys (if you'll excuse the bad pun) and I bet the odd adult male or college student might like to have one handy for the odd occasion too. - 30320
