GINCHO M24 Soft Bullet Toy Gun, Empty Shell Ejecting Design, Enhanced Scope, 40 Soft Foam Darts, 20 Shells, 2 Magazines. Outdoor Toys, Toy Dart Blaster for Boys and Girls

This toy gun is a lot of fun for my kids. I originally ordered it for my 7 year old son. He absolutely loves it, however, it is really long, so not always as easy for him to carry around. I included a picture of the gun next to my son so you can see how long it is. He loves how the empty shells eject out of the gun as he is shooting it. I don't think this gun has ever jammed on him. The shells are bright orange which is nice because you will need to collect them to put your bullets into to shoot the gun again. This toy gun shoots pretty far and can sting when you are shot with it, however, my kids still love it! Even my 13 year old son likes to play with it. It is more suitable for target practice or being a sniper, rather than a foam dart gun battle because you cannot pick up any foam dart that someone shoots at you to reload. There is a scope and other accessories that can be put on or kept off. Overall my kids love this gun. We have had it for several months now and they still like playing with it.

It satisfys my reason for purchase cosplay and bolt action fidgeting but as a actual nerf gun the included darts are inaccurate, you get what you pay for

This thing is so much fun, and it gives a semi-realistic experience because of the shell ejection and the elaborate nature and functionality of the gun itself. It is pretty powerful, and I will say that the hard tip darts are a lot more powerful and accurate than the suction cup ones.This comes with plenty of ammo and shells, and the gun itself has a pretty good heft to it which I think is a good indicator of quality. I also think it's pretty durable because my nephew and I were running around in an unfinished basement and he dropped it pretty hard directly on the cement floor and it didn't hurt the gun at all.I also don't really see much reason for concern in terms of safety because all of the moving parts have rounded / smooth edges so there aren't any pinch points that I noticed. I bring this up because I have another similar one that has a folding stock and I've pinched my own finger when closing it before, so this one is definitely safer IMO. I would definitely recommend this, but I do think you should adhere to the age suggestion just because it is relatively powerful and has some small parts.

Highly recommend this be used outside to avoid additional chaos in the house like we experienced :-) This made a great gift for our son's birthday. The price point is fair given this seems to be decent quality. This comes with a scope and different types of bullets that can be loaded into this gun. The gun ejects them once shot. We live on a farm and it is used to "shoot" all types of things around here. We have lost several of the bullets over time - mom and dad are not complaining :-) The plastic is durable but light weight. Realistic look and even comes with a scope. This would make a great gift and can be used to teach about gun safety and proper handling of a weapon. We have been happy with this purchase so far.

This thing is a life-sized soft dart sniper rifle and it's a blast! (pun intended)The designer paid attention to a lot of details. The gun uses a legit bolt action to eject the spent casing and load the next round into the chamber. Pulling the bolt back takes a little force, since it also compresses the inner spring for the next shot.The reusable cartridges are made up of a thick plastic casing and a soft foam dart with a suction cup tip. You slide the dart into the casing and then pop the combined cartridges into a clip, much like the real thing. Then you insert the clip into the bottom of the rifle (like the real thing), work the bolt (like the real thing), and fire (like the real thing, but with foam darts). Reloading your own shells is a lot less messy than the real thing ;-)The scope doesn't really do much. It's just an anti-telescope (makes things smaller) with plastic lenses and no reticle. It definitely adds to the sniper look, though.I got this to teach my kids some basic safety in a very low-risk setting. The fact that this rifle is life-sized makes it perfect for that. In spite of meaning for it to be an educational object, the kiddos love shooting it. It's hard to be very accurate with the poor optic and non-linear flight path of the super-light projectiles, but that variability is part of the fun for them.Overall, we're thrilled with this nerf rifle and would definitely order it again.
