The Nerf Longshot Is No Longer Just A Kid's Toy Anymore
One of the best parts about the summer is running around the backyard or woods with your friends, playing tag or war games. Your guns might be sticks, cap guns, carved pieces of wood, or Nerf guns. After a long day of play, you and your friends can then enjoy the twilight on the front porch and kick back with a couple of beers. Wait a minute! Beer isn't for kids! However, this description of a fun summer afternoon isn't necessary for kids either. While you probably won't be using sticks as adults, Nerf guns are enjoyed by kids and those who are still kids at heart. Since some of the Nerf guns on the market have the range and accuracy to mimic real guns, such as the Nerf Longshot, they are preferred by weekend warriors who just want to have a good time.

The kids who grew up with Nerf guns are now adults. Some of them like to go paint balling on the weekends, while others engage in more sophisticated mock war games.
However, for those guys who want to mess around at the cabin with their friends on guys' weekend, Nerf guns are a much cheaper and safer bet. They fire foam balls or darts using air pressure and springs.
For instance, if an adult wanted to get an even greater range than the thirty five feet that the Longshot will already give you, it can be accomplished with a simple modification.
If you purchase a Longshot, for instance, there is some minor assembly required before you can use the gun. The bolt lever needs to be attached before it will work. However, if you don't attach the bolt lever right away, you can unscrew the gun to get access to its mechanical innards.
By adding a second spring, such as one that comes on the inside of a toilet paper roll holder, you can improve the range of the gun to almost one hundred feet. The scope will help you to accurately site these long shots.
The Longshot comes with a clip loader and two extra clips. This is also great for both kids and weekend warriors as you don't have to waste precious battle minutes reloading. All the advice about the clip warns people to pull all the way back and to all the way forward to avoid jamming. Otherwise the Nerf Longshot is great for both kids and adults.
