GunnedDown

y0.

It's been a while, I know.

I'd say seven eighths of the people reading this have no idea who I am nor do they care, and that's fine. Nice to meet you, I'm GunnedDown, but you can just call me Mike. No one calls me GunnedDown anymore.

Yet this is for that one-eighth or so that might remember me, even if the memory is just so slight. How are you my dear friends? I've missed you guys a good deal. Whenever I stumble across a Nerf dart or a stefan (do they still call them that? are they still around?), I kinda pause for a moment and remember all my fun Nerf days. It's been a long time. About a year ago I redid my room a bit (it's back to junk heap now) and I sent all my Nerf projects up to the attic in a gigantic tupperware tub. One day they'll be back though, but for now I've replaced them with computers and that's much, much more profitable.

It's interesting I post around this time. You see, I turn 18 on saturday. For those that might remember me, that's pretty funny. I think I started posting stuff online when I was about twelve years old. That would be six years ago, which is pretty freakin' cool if you ask me.

So... Hi

I'll be glad to talk to anyone who IMs me!!!

Cya round

No, this post has nothing to do with sackleberry .. don't bother asking either.

I've been busy lately, but it's like 12:30 and it's saturday. I'm busy downloading stuff so .. uhh.. yeah. I stopped here

I was in a target the other day and saw some of the newer nerf crap ... it looked pretty cool actually. Shame I didn't buy it

So, if anyone remembers who I am, or even if you don't, what's been going down here as of late? You know, like, ehh, past 6... to.. 8 or ... 12 months? :/

Suck my nuts, bitch. Now the fucker can't kill anyone else I know :|

Though it could be a decoy...

Thoughts?

Sign my ass and I'll bake you a cake.

As we speak, the staple dart of nerfers worldwide is the infamous Stefan homeade Dart, pioneered by the ... Stefan Mohr.. himself. Ironic is the timing, but I've been thinking.

The problem with our current darts is that they don't do their job. The reason they are foam is to not kill the person you shoot.... except there is hot glue on the end that hits the person... negating the purpose of the foam.

So, what I'm proposing, is that we somehow invert the current structure of our dart. This would mean the body of the dart would be some sort of variable weight/size, low friction and solid material, whilst the head is made of foam.

I think with rigid body darts, a lot of problems with homeades will be solved (no need for shells).

I'm not really sure what we'd use for the dart body, I've been thinking crayola lids, but you can't really get a bunch of those like FBR. I do think the head would be constructed of 3 to 4/8 in. foam, with the weighting between the piece of foam and the lightweight body. If any one knows of cyllindric lightweight objects (plastic = good), post so ... particularly if it can fit the size of our current barrels or come damn close. Maybe some sort of cheap plastic caps in a bag?

Although our current darts are great, work fine, and are pretty damn good, I just think it hampers a lot of things in mods, gun abilities, homeades, and the future of nerf. It might be an idea of the future... but the future is right around the corner.
