Rampage N-Strike Elite Toy Blaster with 25 Dart Drum Slam Fire for Kids, Teens, & Adults (Amazon Exclusive)

it does jam if you overload the mag, if you try to fan it and do not fully charge it forward and/or back. After you figure that out... do yourself a favor (if you have an FDM/PLA printer) and print out one of the stocks on thingiverse... most excellent. The stability with that really allows you to kick down doors and take names. There is a shorty stock we printed for youngins, and it's great now little ones can fan like it's 2099!

This blaster is great. It just is. The Raider, the earlier version of this, and reliability issues as did its 35rd magazine. This blaster only ever jams if you have a deformed dart in it. It is very accurate as well. I've gotten so many repeat kills at distances of as much as 30ft it isn't even funny. The 75 foot range claimed on the box is what the blaster can achieve if you arc the shot. More often it would be like 70 or so. Shooting flat, you'll get about 55 ft most of the time. Thing is, that's such a marked improvement over the old blasters that I still give it high marks especially since it's fairly accurate at those ranges. The reason for the power is that the internals are now a direct plunger system. Direct plunger means it's like a conventional syringe. After the famous longshot came out, everyone started modifying its direct plunger system so the blaster could get more than 100ft ranges. Until this year, almost ever blaster they came out with since had a reverse plunger system where the plunger was like a cap. Its the structural inverse of a syringe. The Elite blasters are a return to the syringe direct plunger, which is great, but many people have tried to modify them with limited improved results. The Rampage's internals are very simple and have fewer parts than the Raider did, which is great. It's less of a hassle if you want to take one apart. The nice thing about the direct plunger system is you can increase the spring tension without risking internal destruction, as demonstrated by Griffinmods on youtube. An SG Nerf commenter on facebook reported that you will want to reinforce the internal mounts for the operating parts, on the inside of the shell however if you do that. I for one like the blaster so much that i won't alter it in any way other than maybe painting it. The mount for the magazine, which is on the left side, is the only durability problem. As with the raider, it's a separate piece that snaps on. It is possible to slightly loosen it if you bump it while a long magazine is in there, e.g. the drum it comes with or one of the excellent 18rd clips they now sell. If it gets bumped hard enough, you will have a jam until you re-seat it in its proper position. The only other thing that isn't so great is that it doesn't come with a stock. Of course, being an internally upgraded raider, it can take a stock like most other nstrike blasters, but it doesn't come with one. The elite darts are a great improvement. They are lighter and better balanced than the old streamlines and don't fishtail as much. They also shoot great out of older blasters. The foam is slightly stiffer than the old pinkish foam and the heads are slightly stiffer as well. On the SG Nerf blog, which I highly recommend, they cut one in half and compared it to an old streamline and found that part of the reason the balance is better is that the stem of the head, which goes down the hollow center of every kind of foam dart, is shorter on the Elite darts. Its always good to know why something is good, not just that it is good. There isn't much that can be said for its "educational" quality other than that it gives a kid a sense of what its like to shoot something with a magazine for the first time. If you crack it open to tinker with the internals then I would give it high marks for educational quality though and that goes for any nerf blaster. One last thing i would say is that you really need to get eye protection if you're going to play with elite blasters. They won't give you a black eye but they do hurt. The extra power means the hits sting a bit more when you get hit anywhere but they will never break windows or injure your pets. Just get some goggles, not sunglasses. Shop goggles will work fine though for my purposes, I'm getting some that are overkill but can be used for airsoft as well as in the shop: the Revision Desert Locust Fan Goggles which exceed military requirements for ballistic protection and, as the name indicates, have a fan it so they don't fog up. Despite some minor setbacks I again must say that you should get this blaster. It is truly excellent.

Background: I have a lot of Nerf guns - I have basically all of the non-battery powered Nerf N-Strike Elites (Retaliator, Strongarm, Roughcut, Jolt) and have used the Maverick, Hammerlock, Stryfe, and Triad. I personally think that this is the BEST Nerf gun, hands down, in terms of raw firepower. However, I have to knock off a star due to the jamming issue, which many have already spoken about. My personal experience with the jams are that they aren't super hard to clear - they even made a side port for clearing jams. However, for people who don't really know how to use the Nerf gun, if it jams, they will probably just make the jam worse. Of course, if you are in the middle of a Nerf gun war, that could be fatal, but that's what the backup piece is for! Another issue is the drum barrel that it comes with. The drum barrel is not that great. Although it holds 25 darts, it can sometime fail to push the next dart into the gun. I mitigated this by using the normal 12/18 dart magazines. I don't recommend it for kids due to these two issues, it might take the fun out of it. But if you are giving this to a teenager, they will probably enjoy the pleasure of raining Nerf darts on their friends. Pros: - Excellent range, probably the best out of the non-battery Nerf series - Slam fire function gives you the ability to make it rain Nerf darts. - Decent accuracy - Comes with 25 darts - Forward grip cocking is pretty nice, probably one of the best mechanisms out there (matched by the hammerlock and the roughcut) Cons: - If it jams during a Nerf gun fight, drop it and switch to your Strongarm/sidearm of choice. - Drum barrel (and any magazine) causes the gun to feel lopsided towards the left. - Drum barrel isn't that great; might be better to replace with the clip magazines. I personally prefer using the 12 clip since it doesn't make it feel that lopsided.

I couldn’t be happier with this product! It exceeded my expectations in every way—high quality, easy to use, and exactly as described. I’ve noticed a real difference since I started using it, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for something reliable and effective. Definitely worth every penny!

I really love this toy gun! It comes with a large round clip that holds a total of 25 bullets. The clip attaches to the side and it makes it fun to operate this gun. It is very satisfying and fun to use this thing. It just feels good to cock this gun every time you shoot it. It has a grip in the front that slides back and forth to re-cock the gun. It sounds good and feels very solid. It is a well built gun. The clip is solid as well. the bullets are all made out of soft foam rubber and all look the same to me. Before you can shoot this gun, you have to load up the bullets into the huge clip that attaches to the side of the weapon. When loading the clip, there's a little plastic handle that you can turn that makes it easier to push the bullets down into the clip. Once it's fully loaded, you attach the clip to the side of the gun and then slide the forward grip forward to chamber the first round into the gun. Then you pull the trigger to shoot the bullet. But since it's soft foam rubber, the bullet is 100% harmless! It's just a lot of fun, and I highly recommend this toy to kids of appropraite age as well as adults wanting to be a kid again ;-)

Needed a gun to play with my nieces and nephews. I wish I had this thing when I was a kid. It’s accurate, easy to fire and has a fantastic ammo capacity. About the only problem is loading the thing; it’ll take at least two minutes to reload it completely. That makes you a very tempting target. So make sure you’re playing with someone who plays honourably (my nieces don’t).

I didn't know how to repeat fire, but now I know

I purchased it as a Christmas gift for my son. But bullets always gets stuck and my son cannot play freely. So disappointed.

As a Christmas present would have liked in "normal " box & not just plain substitute .

この商品は、ハズブロ社の簡易梱包で配送されます。なので店頭で見るような商品パッケージ（外装）はありません。 それ自体は事前に知っていたのですが、その上でアマゾンのお馴染みの梱包がされるのかと思いきや、 その簡易包装の外箱に直に伝票が貼ってあり、外装が直に配送されました。 なので私も少々面食らいました。 幸い（本当に幸い）、商品自体にはダメージはなく、美品が届きました。 動作不良も無く、一安心。 しかしこれはむしろ稀なケースなのでは、とも思います。 在庫も僅かになり価格も高騰していくことが予想される商品なだけに、 この頼りない梱包はやはりリスキーです。 梱包の話が長くなりましたが、商品自体のレビューに移ります。 主にドラムマガジンに惹かれて購入しました。 構えたままコッキングできるレバーポンプアクションが機能的でグッド。 大きいマガジンは意外と邪魔にならず、100発撃った程度では一度もジャムらず、安定感があります。 当初、弾幕を張るだけが能かと思いきや、意外と命中精度が高い！ 実は、狙い澄ました一撃も撃てる優等生なのでした。 難点は、コッキングの残響。 毎度ほそい金属音が響くので、ドカドカ撃っていると次第に耳がキーーーンとなってきます。 それが魅力だと思う方もいるかもしれませんが、私は少し苦手に感じました。 あとは、ストックを標準装備してくれていれば嬉しかったかな・・・。
