After discovering video games, I didn’t really keep up with my old friend Nerf. But last night, I got to shoot (and get shot by) the Stampede, a new, fully automatic Nerf rifle with a tripod and replaceable magazines. What!?
We watched our US counterparts weep with joy as the NERF Vulcan EBF-25 and Recon CS-6 were released Stateside. We lamented for many long NERF-less months when we couldn’t buy either blaster here. And now, finally, it’s your chance to score the ultimate in foam and dart weapon technology. To win your very own awesome NERF Vulcan or Recon, simply click through to our sister site Kotaku, and test your trigger finger on the NERF shooter game. There are 8 blasters up for grabs and just five weeks to win one of them. [NERF on Kotaku]
When alien archeologists dig up the remains of 2009, they will discover one accomplishment that stands above all others. It won’t be some new iPhone or even the LHC. It will be the Nerf Tank.
Designer Weston Boeges has out-Nerfed Nerf with these concept weapons for the Wii game Nerf N-Strike. Wii or no Wii, I wouldn’t mind using these to shoot someone in the face with a foam dart.
I consider myself a toy gun aficionado—one who is versed in the latest non-lethal, non-painful weaponry. But I’d never heard of chalk guns before.

Nerf just can’t stop. Last year it was Rambo Jr.’s Vulcan Gatling gun, and now they’ve raised the bar again-the CS-35 shoots 35 darts from a rotating drum magazine with pump-action auto fire. Holy shit.
A couple of dudebros created what they called the World’s Most Powerful Nerf gun. They then proceeded to shoot their friend… in a very unfriendly place. Man, that looks like it hurt. [Break]
Having Nerf weapons in your office makes for a fun battle every now and then. Having a coil gun? Well, that takes things up a notch. You don’t mess with the Wiimote-controlled coil gun dude.
