Nerf Zombie Strike Doublestrike Blaster

Awesome fun. Bought for my 3 yr old son to use. Bought myself, my wife and daughter a nerf gun/bow and arrow as well. He had to learn to double cock it for each dart but he is still young and the mechanism was almost to strong for him. He is handling it fine. I think this model is awesome. Strong power. Accurate. Fast loading and firing. Kinda like an old pistol having to reload and cock each time. Personally I like it. A friend bought a couple of these machine gun types and they failed. Always jammed. Terrible. This is simple. Easy fun and would highly recommend for good family dart wars or shooting targets. Daughter and son love it. And even got my wife to participate and laugh. Brought back memories of my childhood when the originals were first popular. Super soaker and nerf gun battles with my brothers, friends, and parents, uncles. So much fun.

I've read some reviews on this blaster that were quite negative, however I cannot find the same fault with it that others have.Here's what Gizmodo Australia had to say about it; "Imagine if the Hammershot was tiny, but only had two barrels, and the darts fell out easily, and they didn’t shoot very far, and the blaster felt cheap and unsatisfying, and generally everything was terrible."I have to disagree with all of it, apart from the fact that it does feel a little cheap. I got ranges of up to 15m with mine, which is not too shabby considering what it is. It's not as accurate or as satisfying to use as a Hammershot, but it's also cheaper than a Hammershot.Young kids may have some difficulty with the priming mechanism, however once learned they'll be fine with it.For mechanical reliability I'd rather have this than a Maverick any day of the week. Sure I'm 4 shots down, but at least the blaster will fire properly each time I pull the trigger.If you're into modding, this one would come up well with a custom paint job.

My 4 year old really enjoys playing with this gun. It is spring-loaded and requires more effort than he can muster so I load it for him, but he loves to take aim and shoot his pretend-monster targets.You can load 2 foam bullets and after you fire one, you will need to spring-load the gun again. If you lose one bullet then this gun can still be used. It will always fire the one bullet you insert no matter in which barrel. Not sure how it knows which barrel contains the bullet and I don't really care. This gun has been dropped and tossed against the wall multiple times but still works.

I was looking for a small play gun that wasn’t a water gun for my boy to play with because he has managed to make just about every toy into a gun, so I figured whatever he’s 2, I’ll let him play. This is the perfect size for little hands. I threw the darts away because it’s too hard for him to fire and he could really care less for them. He carries this thing everywhere to shoot all the random monsters and bad guys. This made my child very happy and is his favorite toy at the moment.

Single handed operation. This is the Single-action double derringer of Nerf Guns. But they can't call it S.A.D.D.!Of course, since you "prime" the gun with the thumb pulling the hammer back, the size of your hands would affect operations. My hands are probably smaller than average though not tiny, and I have no problems operating it one handed. If you fail to lock the hammer back, you may have a "misfire". Range seems a little compromised (haven't tested, just based on the perceived "power"), but this should not be an issue, unless you intend to use the double strike as your main "weapon". It's limited capacity and one handed operation makes it most suitable as a reserve weapon and for that, range should not be an issue.

Great little gun. Fits my 6 year old's hand and he and my 4 year old's can cock it without adult help. Came in Nerf packaging which is always protective and easy to remove the gun from.You cock it by pulling the hammer on the back down, pull the trigger and it will fire the top barrel. Pull it back again to fire the second barrel.One thing i noticed is if you don't have the darts pushed all the way when you cock the hammer it may may the bottom dart pop out or move forward slightly.It has great range for a side arm and is very accurate.Great little gun

My son is obsessed with Nerf guns, saw this one at his friends house, and had to have it. It works really well. It doesn’t shoot both bullets at the same time, worth mentioning that. You have to load it between shots. Other than that, no complaints.

I got this because Santa got my son a larger Nerf weapon and I figured my wife and I needed something of our own to defend ourselves with and it fit the bill pretty well. We do have a bit of an advantage as this shoots two darts in succession, rather than my son's single shooter Chewbacca nowcaster, but I do have a couple of complaints:1) Only 2 darts come with this thing...and a pack of refills will cost about as much as the gun itself. It seems like Nerf is looking to position itself as the Gilette razor of the toy world.2.) After the first couple of shots, the cocking-action hammer only works intermittently. The gun still fires but you have to do the old 50s cowboy trick of just snapping it back with the palm of your hand rather than cocking and then pulling the trigger.Overall, if you can get this on sale for ten bucks or less, I'd say go for it. Otherwise, maybe shop around.Also, if you're thinking of going the cheap route (like I did) and buying off-brand refills instead of the nerf brand, be aware that the tips are much harder plastic and sting quite a bit more
