Reddit reviews Nerf Rampage N-Strike Elite Toy Blaster with 25 Dart Drum Slam Fire & 25 Official Elite Foam Darts for Kids, Teens, & Adults (Amazon Exclusive)

Best Raider mod I know of

I know little about cap guns, but I'm a die-hard fan of Nerf (and similar) blasters - like these two for example. They're a lot of fun to use, okay to bring outside (I know I wouldn't dare take out a cap gun while in the city I live in), and pack a real punch while still being completely safe. There's a different model for just about every kind of gun action you can think of, for example: classic single action revolver, bolt action, lever action, even fully automatic.

If you're looking for something more mil-sim or real-world, might I suggest CO2-powered airsoft guns? They have cool blowback action so you get the feeling and the bang of shooting a pistol, and are accurate enough to be able to plink cans from across the room. And they're good for teaching gun safety at a young age, without putting anyone at that large a risk.

Here's the best mod [kit] (https://www.amazon.com/Nerf-N-Strike-Elite-Rampage-Blaster/dp/B00DW1JT3I) that maintains shell aesthetics. Price has gone up lately, but still is reliable.

You don't even need a dremel.

Ok, apologies for the length of this post, but I want to give you multiple options and reasons for them.

Loadout 1 - Flywheels

Target
Rapidstrike Holiday Bundle - Normally I would recommend a stryfe as a starter blaster over this, because the rapidstrike usually needs some level of modding to reach it's potential, but since the holiday bundle comes with 2 18 clips rather than 1, I feel that since you're essentially getting the rapidstrike and 2 clips for the same cost as a stryfe and 2 18 clips then it warrants looking at. Should you prefer the smaller form of the stryfe and the semi auto rather than full auto, then you can get that and 2 more of the 18 dart clips linked below from amazon.

Hammershot - If you want a secondary, this is the way to go in my opinion, since you can use it with one hand and it just is a great platform.

$60~ Shipped

Narrowbase
Nmag Clip Holder - These clip holders are fantastic and not super bulky, giving you quick and easy access to your clips while wearing a belt. Certainly an investment, but a worthwhile one.

Belt Loop Adapters - Same as the clip holders, but for your hammershot.

Belt Loop Adapters - These are to use your clip and hammershot holders on your belt, meaning you don't need to buy a molle platform. Choose size according to belt width.

$70~ Shipped

Amazon
[Extra Clip](http://www.amazon.com/N-Strike-Elite-18-Dart-Quick-Reload/dp/B0083TXZCA/ref=sr_1_20?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1421366408&sr=1-20&keywords=nerf
) - Having extra clips is near essential to avoid having to constantly stop and reload your clip. Since the Holida Rapidstrike comes with 2, another clip on top of that puts you at 3 which is a decent start.

$11~ Shipped

Ebay
Koosh Darts - These are the go to darts for affordable and effective darts. They're more accurate than elite streamlines, but you might encounter some that have quality issues. Overall the price and accuracy is worth the occasional bad dart.

$20~ Shipped

Total - $161~
I know that's a little over what you listed, if you needed to be firm on the $150, you could drop the hammershot and holster, pick up another clip and a single clip holder from Narrowbase and I think that should be closer to the $150 mark.

Loadout 2 - Springer

Amazon
Rampage - The rampage is a good springer platform to start with, and the extra ammo capacity is always a plus.

[Extra Clip](http://www.amazon.com/N-Strike-Elite-18-Dart-Quick-Reload/dp/B0083TXZCA/ref=sr_1_20?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1421366408&sr=1-20&keywords=nerf
) - Same reasons as loadout 1 except buying 2 this time rather than one.

$52~

Blastersmiths UK

MkI Battle Belt - This is in my opinion a good molle platform since it has built in clip holders, with molle space you can build on. Also since it isn't a full vest it isn't as bulky or restrictive.

Large Dump Pouch - Something that I wasn't able to squeeze into the other loadout, and was less necessary because the NMAGS can serve as a storage for used clips as well. Basically this just gives you a place to quickly drop used clips when switching out. This is more necessary for this loadout because you have the drum that comes with the rampage you need somewhere to drop.

Molle Attachment Bars - These are used to attach your dump pouch to your battle belt or molle platform of choice.

$75~

Ebay
Koosh Darts - Same as the first loadout.

$20~

Total - $147~

This loadout has some different gear than the first because I wanted you to see two different ways you could go with a loadout, so don't be afraid to take aspects from one to apply to the other, it's all about finding what works for you, this is just what I would go with if I had that kind of budget, because I feel like having good gear is just as important as a good blaster, because having reliable and quick or easy access to your clips is important in games, especially HvZ, which I have no idea if that's something you intend to play or not. Anyways, I hope this gives you a good starting point! If you have any questions on why I picked certain things, let me know!

I wish I had ones like these when I was a kid. And now that I have a kid of my own I look forward to running around the house with them.

from what i can see, the rampage is basicly just a Drop smaller newer version of the cs-35 raider? they look very similar.. and no, im not attached to that gun specificaly, im just trying not to spend a ton of money, and since thats the only gun i had and got it for 5.00 i figured id mod that..i found this https://smile.amazon.com/Nerf-N-Strike-Rampage-Blaster-Exclusive/dp/B00DW1JT3I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1537811713&sr=8-1&keywords=nerf+rampage for 31.89 then theres also a sonic ice version for 60 which i wouldnt be buying https://smile.amazon.com/NStrike-Elite-Rampage-Sonic-Blaster/dp/B00UMZEKU4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1537811713&sr=8-2&keywords=nerf+rampage so ill think about buying the rampage, suppisvely it shoots 75FT without mods?
i see it doesnt come with a stock which is kind of od.. i could always use my Raider one until i buy the mod one..
is that gun much smaller at all then the cs-35 raider? i like having the big long gun and having one thats drasticly smaller would suck
it seems a lot smaller but it could be because it doesnt come with a stock
