The Semi Long Awaited Nite Finder Review
#1

Hello all, if you remember the last topic I made “The wal-mart report”
Since then, I had promised to review the two Nite Finders I had purchased, and now that time has come, and with out further ranting or intro I give it to you.
General Overview:
The thing that caught my eye in the store was its price, set only at 5.97 a piece, in comparison to my slight budget and the price of other Nerfy goods at the store, I bought two of them, other than price the other reasons I was attracted to the gun was because it
had a light (a feature that I have not had in any of my arsenal yet) it had a great paint scheme that seems to be commonplace in this line of guns.
After returning home with my new weaponry, I removed the gun from its cardboard womb and examined it, its large enough to fit in a holster, it has the light ingeniously positioned under the barrel and under that two ammo slots, I should note that the darts that it comes with are “sensitive” and do not have “recovery foam.”
I pulled back the orange lever and fired it, the report that came out of the gun was loud, I even got some kick back from the gun, I looked at it afterwards finding that the plastic case over the light can be adjusted for accuracy, now my curiosity peaked as I tested it giving you the results below.
Note: You insert AA batteries for the light to work, you only need to unscrew the one screw that is on the handle, when it works the light will be in a bulls-eye pattern/
Accuracy:
I was impressed with the accuracy of the gun, even at maximum range it still had near 100% accuracy. Score: 5/5
Range:
With a max of 32 ft, its the best range I have seen for a pistol as of yet. Score: 5/5
Durability:
The gun shows no flaw in this area. Score: 5/5
Overall Score:
This is the perfect large single shot handgun, and for only 6.00 a pop I recommend buying as many as you can, I will always bring one of these to all my future wars.
Overall Score: 5/5

Wow, a mod and a review !
This has been out long enough for everyone to be owning one, or already know enough about it. Im not trying to put you down or offend anyone, its just a alot-a-bit late.

I bought several. I'm happy I did.
The Pistol had a small "laser light" on it. I was curious about this, as most of Nerf's attempts to make a decent laser pistol only turned out
to be mediocre. On the back, it had the Tech Target, and it includes a small cardboard target with the gun. I hope they do release more blasters in this line.
They were right. It was actually pretty good, especially stock. The way the light works is a pressure switch near the trigger and catch. It takes 2 "AA" batteries. When you pull the trigger back a bit, it made contact between two metal points, and lit a red light in the front of the gun.
The small light. It said it worked to up to 15 feet away.
In a dark hall, it was okay. In the light, it was not as effective. I doubt this has any real use, but the extra laser casing adds a more
"realistic" effect to the gun.
now compare it to this...
