i am thinking of getting a modded power clip and 2 extra clips so i will have 20 bullets ready to use. I am an amateur nerfer and so are my friends and i am looking for a fast rof but light and easy to carry. I half a wildfire but it is too bulky and takes too long to reload. Is this a good idea to use a modde powerclip with three clips(30 bullets)or should i buy a nitefire or sumthing and use it as a secondary to my wildfire.
P.S. I am the only one on my team that will have a gun with a high rate of fire.

The Powerclip is an exelent weapon. I sugest you get it. But I also think you should get a Nitefinder along with it beasause I've heard very good things about it. By the way, how is this Powerclip modded?

A word of advice, If you want to stay on Nerf Haven For long, then you should clean up your posts and not type AIM style.

The wildfire isn't nearly as good as the powerclip, especially when modded with extra clips. The wildfire is just a weaker version of the rapid 20. Since you can use a powerclip in one hand apart from pumping, you might want to invest in a nite finder with a bit of twine or something along those lines tied through the part you pull back, so you can let the gun dangle there while you pump the powerclip. The powerclip shoots farther and faster than both the rapid 20 and the wildfire. Alternatively for the nite finder, you can make a holster. And don't come down too hard on him. That post was fine.


Edit: I see what you mean, 1/2, now that I've read the other thread; could be tied in. Maybe I'm just afraid because everyone comes down really hard. You didn't come down too hard on him. I rescind my earlier statement and find your response appropriate.

Sorry about that, I wont do it again, thanks for your advice.

I'd have to go with NO. In its day, NO was the shit.

Unless you're talking about the current Larry Chen version of NO, then I'd go with the Powerclip.

Get both. Powerclip is an excellent weapon if your talking about assault guns. It's hard to miss. It's nice to have a loaded pistol with you, too, and the NF feels nice in your hand. It's a nice mod, not too hard. They're both relatively inexpensive, and great weapons. The powerclip can be modded to have removable clips, for faster action, and the NF has nice ranges (60-70 feet stock darts, no bands) for a pistol.

The PowerClip is an excellent weapon. I only wish I had a couple extra clips. I use the PC as my primary weapon almost all the time. It's reliable, easy to use, has good range for an automatic, and has good accuracy. I highly recommend it.

The Nite Finder is also a great weapon, easily on par with the LnL. An excellent side arm.

Both guns are good, but seeing as how PC's are much harder to find than nightfinders, I would go with the Powerclip.

What the hell did that mean?

You are so right. I read that post and laughed because it made no sence!

It makes sense, theres an un-intended pun.

Man, I feel like I'm a grammer teacher.

It's grammar.

Go with a PowerClip. It's one of the best Nerf guns in my experience, and even if you don't get a NF now, it's easy to find, so you could just get it later.

[CheeseNerfer]

My PC is by far my favorite gun. Light, rapid fire and reletivly small compared to other rapid fire guns. I would also recommend you carry a NF or LnL as side arm though because when your out of darts its a bitch to find all of them without getting shot.

[seirus]

Our gunner loves to diss the PC. I would never use it myself, as I play sharpshooter, but also because It takes too many pumps to prime, it's bulky, and it's incredibly loud. Also, what's the point in launching 10 darts at somone if you cant hit em with one? It's called riflery (but with foam!)

[CheeseNerfer]

Hmm at ranges within 20 ft. my PC is acurate enoug to get a head shot within two tries. With rapid fire that's not hard just don't waste the whole clip on one person. I do know what you mean though being primarily a loser myself.

[TimberwolfCY]

I dunno, my PC is accurate at least out to 40 feet. I usually fire in two- or three-shot bursts, and I always hit with one. I've found the "burst method" to be very handy, and I've got the timing down perfectly.

[seirus]

Bah. Smxx 1500's are superior. But, that aside, I do agree with bursts. As in real combat, sustained fully automatic fire, though intimidating, will always be less accurate due to muzzle jumps. However, in Nerf, there is virtually no recoil. The underlying issue is the immense amount of time required to prime such a weapon. With the PC, it's obviously quite a bit easier that a WF or an RF20, but nevertheless, it's all a tradeoff between laying down 20 rounds not as accurately and at shorter ranges, or knocking a guy out with a Smxx 5000 from 110 ft.
