Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Just got the Nerf Ultra One two days ago. Pros: 1. gorgeous gun, really beautiful 2.fits my hands well (but I have shorter fingers) 3. Front loading 4. It won’t accept any other type of ammo. If you try you’ll jam the round and need a long screwdriver to remove it. Cons: 1. If you don’t follow the instructions for assembling the feeder drum it may make the gun unusable. The tabs might break or not come undone if you assembled it in the wrong order. 1.5 The gun is not full auto, it’s semi-auto. 2. The range is less than claimed.(May be due to darts not being lined up in the chamber.) 2.5 The motor takes some time to spin up, so getting full range won’t happen if you shoot too quickly. 3. You must twist the darts as you load, making sure you line up the dart fins with the groves inside the chamber. The dart will drop in more easily when it’s lined up. The dart will go straighter and farther if you line them up in the chamber. 4. Because of the finesse needed to load the rounds you won’t have a fast reload time. 5. The drum makes it difficult to hold the front of the gun because it gets in the way. It forces you to bend your elbow. People with longer arms may not find this an issue. Small kids may find it tough. 6. The Ammo is easy to lose because it is charcoal in color with an orange tip. 6.5 The darts are super light and stubby so the wind will effect them more than standard darts. 7. Nerf did not include enough darts to fill the drum or the stock mounted ammo storage. Obviously Nerf couldn’t make enough darts to cover the first run of these guns. Call Hasbro and complain. 8. You cannot purchase ammo at this time. Call Hasbro and complain. In fact with Christmas coming there will be a backlog of orders for these new darts and guns. You may have to wait until January or later. 9. The patent on these darts may prevent aftermarket/cheaper darts from being produced for months or years. That’s my review of the Nerf Ultra One. Send me questions if you like.
