OT: The latest retro fad to hit our office is.

Nerf guns. Started with a couple of Mavericks. Then one of the guys ordered a Nite finder. So I grabbed a Buzz Bee Mech Tommy 20 motorised semi auto.



Someone else is looking at grabbing a Firefly and there has already been mention of someone importing a Vulcan.



And there seems to be a healthy modding scene for Nerf weapons.



Yet we meet deadlines and always have plenty of work to do.

this is what a couple of the guys are thinking of buying when they become available here, or even importing if they need to to escalate the arms race.

I've just been looking at them, they're not what they were. My mates little brother had one of these -

it actually had a bit of recoil and the range was amazing for the speed it could throw those 20 darts out!

I now have one of these.

Less like a tommy gun and more like a grenade launcher due to the lack of barrel and spinning wheel launch mechanism. But the range and power, and 20 single shots is very good. And it doesn't jam anywhere near as much as the reviews suggest.
