Video of some kid firing it:

That firing range would be OK for indoor nerfing, but it wouldn't be worth anything in outdoor wars.

It took the gun 8 seconds to discharge the 25 darts.

Well, it looks like the darts went about 25 feet. Not bad for a rapid fire gun like that. I wonder how much it will jam.. But anyways, good find!

I'm not complaining about the rate of fire, but would it really be able to hold it's own against an X-bow that could shoot 150+ feet?

That's not going to stop me from getting one though.

Yes, because there doesn't exist a Crossbow that fires 150+ feet.

Also, the way you sign all your posts is really irritating.

You're funny. The Vulcan actually looks pretty fun to play around with. The darts were bouncing off the walls with a decent amount of force for a stock gun.

[imaseoulman]

The firing of it was pretty freakin sick. It shot faster than I thought it would, definitely high enough rate of fire. If we can just get the range up a bit, it will be a lot of fun. I really do think this has potential as CTF defense. It also has potential if you can get in close enough to the enemy's base, you can put down enough cover fire for plenty of teammates to move in.

[Myster E]

Yeah, I guess I didn't see all the bouncing... slow computer, jumpy picture.

I'll concede the point.


Yeah, I was only going to sign my first few posts like that. It gets annoying
to copy and retype it over and over again.

Exactly. The Vulcan seems to do a good job of improving on all the weaknesses of the RF20: namely, slow reload time, pumping, and rapidly diminishing range. It's not a gun that you'd use for everything, but it'll rock in its particular niche.

Cool can't wait to get my own.

This thing is going to be perfect for indoor wars, which is the type of war I do most. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these.
