I bought this to play around and have fun with my grandson. I quickly realized that this would be more my gun than his.This was supposed to be a toy for him to play with when he comes to visit. We have a large patch of woods on our property that he and I enjoy exploring and “hunting “ in. I wanted to set this up for him to use out there but quickly realized that I was going to have more fun with it than he would.This toy comes with so many accessories! A tactical vest and face mask are things you don’t generally get with a toy like this. The gun is fun to play with but the accuracy is not as good as what I would have hoped for. Still, I haven’t regretted ordering it and I don’t think you will either.

Good points : It does fire full-auto, it does get a decent amount of power on the shots, it does include a rechargeable battery, and it looks pretty cool. Removable Silencer / Barrel extension is a plus.Bad points : It's full auto - but it's not fast. The shots have a decent FPS (I'd guesstimate high 80's based on how my targets react) - but they're WILDLY inaccurate (Tested with included darts, NERF brand Darts, Accu-Strikes, and a few types of Waffleheads I have handy. The BEST were the Accus and Waffles, and even those were barely able to nail a target on 1/3 of the shots). The plastic in use is really flimsy and feels like it will break within a week. The mags it comes with are nice ; sadly, it does not want to work with standard mags because of how the mag well is set up ; some MIGHT work, but don't expect it. The top handle / rail fit is INCREDIBLY poor - I had to tap it repeatedly with a rubber mallet to get it attached. I will admit that the top rail isn't going to come off by accident ... and probably not intentionally either ... so if you like the look, be aware of that. If you don't ... also be aware of that.Ergonomics aren't bad. It's a little bit on the small size, but I would hesitate to call it kid-sized ; I can grip and use it comfortably myself. The rev trigger is HUGE, but not uncomfortable.The accessories it comes with are as follows : The target isn't bad at all as a freebie and should hold up to reasonable use, the Vest is very much kid-sized and of middling quality but will do the job for a while, the safety glasses are also kid-sized and of acceptable quality.Overall, I'd say it's ... decent enough for plinking, probably a bad idea for an actual dart war, and utterly brilliant as a costume piece.

I have tried to resubmit an updated review toToy Guns, Automatic Toy Gun for Boys Age 8-12 with Tactical Vest, Electric Toy Foam Blasters & Guns with 2 Magazines, 200 Foam Bullets, Dart Blasters Toys Birthday Xmas Gifts for Kids and Adults 8+ (Purple 2.0)But it will not take. I seem to have had this problem a few times now. It should now read:The extended barrel was basically broken from the start. It pried open at the slightest touch once it was put on the toy so I put a pipe clamp on it to keep it from falling off all the time or getting in the path of the projectile being shot from it. I am still constantly leery of it doing just that even though I torqued it down pretty well. The tip of the barrel has a lot more leverage than the plastic has strength, so I am betting it will happen eventually. It is only for looks anyway and adds nothing to the functionality of the toy though and when it is off it looks like a gussied up P-90. Stargate Fans should recognize it and to be honest, pretty much the main reason I got it in the first place, but my son likes it with the barrel attached, so here we are.The rate of fire is slower than I expected, I assume to give rolling pin time to get up some speed before a new round can be fed into the firing chamber. I did notice, as you can see in the video, that if you do try to get multiple shots of in as quick succession as possible, they do not go as far or as fast. A single shot every couple seconds will net you a greater distance and velocity, but only about .5 further than usual. This is the only way to possibly get a round to go the 50-60 foot and that will have pretty close to zero accuracy.I can say with utmost certainty that the accuracy comes down to the projectiles themselves. Being made from foam, they are easily distorted from everything that will apply any kind of pressure on them. Like being in the magazine, especially for long periods of time, being squished and sped through the rollers that shoot it from the toy and any impact they suffer from being shot from the toy. And don't forget being chewed on. Watch them around your pets. Mine treat them as prey and will ponce, chew, claw and even eat them if you let them. One has actually taken to just pouncing and running off with them. They are not edible. Please don't let your pets eat them.The projectiles are black with orange tips. They can be very difficult to find in pretty much any terrain. They mostly do not work for their intended purposes. The Velcro ones only stick to the target about 1/4 of the time and the suction cup ones only stick to non porous surfaces at about the same rate.The inclusion of the weapons vest is cool, but only fits an adult. The safety glasses is what really sticks out about this product in particular. I applaud the manufacturers for this. Well done.There are a few things that I would like to address and speak to on why I am not giving a full five stars. I think the claim of "shoots 50-60'" is a little outlandish since it implies that it can on a regular basis, they also claim it is accurate, but it is not. No toy gun that shoots these types of projectiles can be by their very nature. I also expect the toy to be fully functional when I first put it together, so the broken barrel extension is a definite addition to this subtraction. It is a lot and I hate it when marketing lies to me, but for some reason I just can't bring myself to take more stars from it. It probably has to do with how much fun my son and I have with it.

I found that this dart rifle is pretty fun to hold and mess around with as well as to walk around with in costume or milsim attire despite the overall pink-purple coloring.The firing rate itself isn't very special so for actual dart wars and nerf battles I wouldn't suggest this weapon, but as a decorative piece it serves nicely. With a new paint job might actually look pretty great.Most of the attachments were easy to put on and remove, however I ended up scraping my finger while getting the top attachment on which doesn't come off or go on easily. Definitely not designed well for a younger child to mess around with.Additionally, I wouldn't really say it's even sized ergonomically for a child. The gun itself even without the attachments is pretty big for a kids hands. The only things that really seem designed appropriately for kids would be the tactical vest and eye protection.

This dart gun works well but is more machine gun than sniper rifle!
