M A N T A RAY
Rating-7
The intended purpose of this gun is what really works for it. It can be very useful when being bombarded by darts in an ammo run. It is a shield. It is a four shot shotgun. It is a component in the SS II/Manta Ray combo. This gun really works.
LOCK 'N LOAD

This is a top of the line sidearm. It's range is extroardinary and is easy and fast to cock. Good accuracy and small size are also great. A must have in any arsenal.

The Rattler is not good. Bad accuracy, power, and range bring down the ratings. Sometimes mine misfires and darts fall out. Although, it is compact and fires four darts.

This big, bulky pistol has a "laser", which can pin your opponent in the head, or just give away your position. The laser sometimes helps, except it is just too big to carry around for a single shot. Good range. Cool futuristic look.

This is a very quick shootin' gun. The harder you yank the chord, the faster it fires. Accuracy stinks because of yanking the chord, but really fast. Might I add, the range is pitifull, so use it only to run up and finish someone off.

This is the first cocking nerf gun, with the yellow with orange cap darts. It has good range and accuracy, which I think is partially due to the darts it comes with. The classic nerf pistol.
L A S E R FANG
Rating-6
The Laser Fang is the more modern, smaller version of the Eagle Eye. It still has the little light, and you shoove a dart into an inner-exposed mouth, like in the Alien movies.
S E C R E T SHOT
Rating-7
The secret shot's intended purpose doesn't work. Who would put up their hands, act as if they were surrendering, and come within point blank range, then fire out of the handle barrel. I only really use the "secret" barrel if someone is charging you and you need a quick reload. Now, the top barrel really launches the darts, but the accuracy isn't too good.
NB-1
Rating-5
This is one of the older Nerf toys, and it fires missles. It is designed to be about as reliable as can be for a nerf gun. Range and accuracy are average. They put it back on the market today as a glider launcher of some sort.

This thing bites. Its too big to be a holdout weapon, the darts go plunk, and has some really stupid, green plastic thing on top that pops up. Absolutely worthless.

This is a bigger, better rattler. The range still stinks, but by using a cocking mechanism, it really improves accuracy. The ratchetblast is easy to carry around on a good belt, and a good assault weapon.
W H I P T A I L SCORPION
Rating-5
The only real reason I bought this gun was because it was six bucks. It is a pretty weird device. The Nerf Max Force line is supposed to resemble animals. But this thing actualy shoots the darts like the same animal in real life would strike its prey. The tail "whips" out in front and then fires. The Whiptail Scorpion does have excellent range. Its accuracy is kind of awkward due to the whipping tail.
S U P E R M A X X 500
Rating-8
This extremely rare sniper pistol is one of the best in its class. With a mere two pumps, you get ranges that surpass or equal an arrowstorm. With one pump, it still has 75% full power. The supermaxx 500 is an excellent sidearm to have in your arsenal, if you can find one!
