I was recently in an indoor nerf war. We were using stock darts because the room was only 30 ft long 15 wide so stephans made small dents in the plasterboard. Anyway. We were recording the battle for fun and wow. two nerf darts hit eachother in mid air. It was amazing and we got it on video. I was wondering if this had ever happened to anyone else.


I didnt know how to cut scenes in the video but start watching it at 1:14 to see the hit.

If you have nerfed as much as I have, you've seen this a couple times. Still awesome whenever it happens though. Usually we stop nerfing and talk about how awesome it was for a while.

I didn't catch it in the video... Oh well.
It's never happened to me before.
Though, there was this time me and my friend were having some 1v1's out in my backyard. We were using a Rattler (Frost Vectron's mod) and a brassed SM1500. We would switch off every so many rounds.
Well, this round I was using the SM1500, and my friend had the Rattler. There's this wooden play structure thing in my yard with swings and a pole with tires stacked up vertically next to them. My friend was up against that, and I was just around the corner against the wall of the wooden structure, no more than 30' away. I ran out, pulled the trigger, saw the dart fly right at him, then turned the turret to reload again. He called himself out because he thought the dart hit his gun. We looked on the ground a little, then looked up and saw my dart stuck halfway into one of the barrels on the turret on the end of the Rattler.
Yeah, it was pretty cool.

Yeah ive had this happen when a friend and I were shooting rf20 at each other.

I remember this one time my friend and I were walking in the neighborhood to a nerf war together. I was carrying a Hornet, and he was carrying a Mech Tommy 20. I accidentally hit the Hornet's blast button and six darts came out, we only found 5. We searched for a bout 20 minutes for that other dart but couldn't find it. Then after discovering the person we had gone to war with wasn't there we went home. At my house we decided to have an indoor fight instead, but when my friend started up the Mech Tommy 20 something was jammed in it already, it was the missing dart! We rolled on the floor laughing for about 5 minutes afterward.

Another time I remember my dad and I were shooting each other in my basement and completely unintentionally I caught a dart he fired in my mouth right between my teeth.

Bottom Line: Some weird yet cool things can happen while nerfing.

As unlikely as this may sound, but the exact same thing happened to my friend and I while we were aisofting. I don't care if you don't believe me, but I'm swearing to God that I'm telling the truth. He was hiding behind the edge of a fence, and I was croutching behind a bush. He started to come out and shoot, so I shot back, and the BB's hit eachother and shattered.

Chewbacca, I believe you, we airsoft all the time and bbs frequently are shattering against brick walls we hide behind. It is also common to hit another persons gun, so all it would take is a matter of chance that you'd fire at the same time, cool story but hasn't happened to us yet.

During a nerf night battle, everyone was out except for me and a player from the other team. It was almost pitch-dark and I was around a corner trying to figure out where my opponent was. It turned out he was sneaking right up to look around the same corner. I just stuck my magstrike 20 around the corner and unloaded. Then, he comes prancing around the corner and shoots me, and says "I win". I'm very confused It turns out as I unloaded he ducked and all my darts sailed right over his head. It was verified when all of my darts were on the other side of the room. It kinda sucked

Wow, this happened to me yesterday too!

This was the first time that it's every happened to me. I was using a NF and my frind was using a sm750 and they both just collided.

[kingshane50]

Yeah, this has happened to me on Friday in a "Nerf Duel". I had Godzilla (a gun I just finished, write up coming soon) and my friend Ajaun had a modded nitefinder. We turned around and shot but we didn't get hit. He started to laugh and said that the darts hit each other. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Happened to me last week. Both were stock darts, and both got destroyed.

This has happened to me a couple times while nerfing.

The most bizzare case actually occured back when I used to play paintball (about 4-5 years ago). I was rushing some brush with my brother. A guy popped up and started shooting. We each let off about 6 shots when I saw a ball (not sure if it was my bro's or mine) shoot into the other guy's barrel.

If you guys know about paintball, any kind of paint inside of the barrel will completely throw off the gun's performance. The ball that went in shattered with the ball in the chamber and there was a ton of paint all over the inside of his gun. Needless to say, he was out in a matter of seconds after that.

Ha, I remember one time my bro and I were nerfing indoors and i ran out of bullets and started to get out another clip. I started to say "crap" cause I was out of bullets but by bro popped out from a corner and the next thing I knew I was chewing on a dart. It kinda sucked cause I still lost.

[Dayko]

Yeah I have had this happen to me. Me and my brother were shooting at each other with are LongShots and the darts hit each other in mid-air. It was pretty cool.
