Can anyone tell me the price of an unmodded scout? Also, is it's range 30 feet like the maverick? If not, what is it's range?

The scout comes only with the N-Strike pack, I believe. I'm not sure how much it is. At the very minimun $30. And the range on the scout if pretty terrible. My friend gets around 30'. If you want a good pistol go and buy a NF. They're cheap and are great sidearms.

What I mean is how much is the scout when people sell it over the internet such as ebay or over here.

Also, is the range exactly 30 like the maverick's?

It is also sold by its self with a target like the Tech Target set. I would quess more like 20. The plunger tube is smaller and the spring also weaker.

Yes Nf has better stats but I personally like how the Scout feels and the slide back cocking mech is pretty cool. I modded it and got its ranges up to about 50' and that is (I think) more than enough range for a sidearm.

I am not sure how much scouts are sold for online because I have never seen one forsale alone. But I would quess between $5 and $15.

My friend said that the scout is the worst nerf gun he ever bought. . .

If you want a cool pistol get a NF or a Tek 6. A Tek 6 modded can get 60-70 feet. . . And it only costs about 4$ you can't beat that.

I am yet to hear about a Tek 6 that can get 60+ feet. From a modification.
I thought a well modded Tek 6 tops out at 50 feet if that.

I don't get my kicks out of you,
I don't feel the way I used to do.
I know its bad,
After what we had,
But I’m just not the angel you knew.

It could okay with a few mods. Such as AR removal and if possible a spring replacement if they even make springs like that. A barrel replacement with a clip mod.
Then it might be a decent side arm but nothing like a NF or AT2K.

Well i thought it could with PVC. . .Eyeballing it of course.
Still even if 50 feet is max, that pretty good for a six shooter that costs 4$.

Aye. Get an NF. I took out the Air Restictors, and put down rubber bands. It's pretty solid.

Yeah and Modding the NF is so easy.

The Nitefinder is prolly nerf's best gun ever. Its cheap, its sleek and Easy to Mod.

Ehh, I call that debatable. True, it is cheap, sleek, and easy to mod, but it's meant to be a sidearm. Honestly, I can't speak with too much authority on this front, not having been a Nerfer for ten years like some of the folks here, but I just don't think the NF is the best.


However, it is a solid pistol, bringing us back on topic. The Hornet is OK in my honest opinion. Probably the best stock gun in the original N-Strike, consindering that single-barrel Titans are so often outlawed. The Scout is rather meh.

The Scout was only good for me because of the fact that I was able to get some early modding experience with it.
