Best bang for your buck, simple and easy to use with good entry-level performance.

Listed below are the cheapest options we have with standard “better than nerf” performance.

Manual Prime

Single fire blasters such as Pump-action, Bolt-action, Top-prime

Semi Auto

Fire one shot per trigger pull

Full Auto

Full multiple shots per trigger pull

Select-Fire

Can toggle between fire modes

Or...Shop by power type, blaster size, etc

Spring Powered

These blasters are generally the easiest in function by compressing a spring to then fire a dart. They’re usually pump-action, bolt-action, or top-prime. Easiest and simplest to use. 

Flywheel Powered

These blasters are the go-to for semi and full-auto firing. They use rechargeable batteries and require the purchase of a battery charger, but give a high rate of fire and moderate power.

Air Powered

These blasters require replenishment of compressed gas like CO2 or HPA (High Pressure Air). They’re great for getting high power in a small size.

AEB Powered

AEB (Automatic Electric Blasters) are newer to the Nerf scene. They’re Spring Powered for high power, but are primed electrically instead of manually primed every shot.
