lol Nice. But it looks like the red player was 3D rendered... if so, why use a nerf longshot 3D model?

He wasn't a computer model. Any way it was a funny video, if a little gay.

Ok. I finally will post pictures. I know it is'nt very sophisticated. but it is cheap and fairly effective for its simplicity.

Here is the rubber band

this is how I pack in the darts.

There are two more darts that go on top of those darts and there are threee that lay underneath the rubber band so it launches darts in mid flight and on impact.

this is the balloon fully inflated, it holds the darts in until you have thrown it, plus alittle after that.

And here is a size comparison.

So there it is, tell me what you guys think but please dont roast me about its design, I made a grenade that fits my needs, that's all I wanted.

You could have like two or three of these balloons blown up with some stefans inside, held with a clothespin, and then open the clothespin, and throw. Not a bad idea.

Thats not really how it works. There is a box that holds all the darts or stefans, whichever you prefer, and they are at the bottom of the box stressing a rubber band. All the balloon does is keep the rubber band from launching the darts prematurely so it fires when it is alittle in front of you. It is more a shock and awe thing and it is useful for preping a room for entry in an indoor war (Alaskans tend not to nerf outisde in the wind and cold).

I would have to say that the most comfortable guns I've ever held were the Recon, and my double shot (yes I do use it in wars) I like how you can just rest them on your sholder and not feel any wieght on the trigger, makes precision shooting much easier. :ph34r:
