Nerf Guns

Post by Foo »

There's been a bit of a nerd fad lately over on the likes of Penny Arcade and SA regarding nerf guns.

Nerf's basically the coward's version of paintball/airsoft that you can play at home. Everyone knows this, rite?

Picked 2 of these up today for 4 quid each, absolute bargain:

Gonna paint them up as so:

Could be worse I suppose, I could be into LARP :(

Nerf guns were fun when I was 8. And even then only fun for about 15 seconds, then you had to spend 5 minutes to find all the projectiles and reload everything for 15 more seconds of meager amusement. But I played with them for hours at a time anyway. :olo:


Good times. :tear:

A crappy little discount store in the city centre. All the proper toy stores have these kinds of things for much more money.

Fortunately they're also rare as fuck.

I had some guy in the other day alleging police brutality. He said a cop hit him on the head with a gun, at which point we all started laughing.

Your son's dead. I was at 60 and what's more - I was a better shot.
