Out of the box, the Nite Finder shoots darts about 35 feet with very good accuracy. If you’re into modding, replacing the barrel, removing the air restrictors and replacing the spring can easily double the range. Unbelievable for such a small Nerf blaster.

The Nite Finder was named for its little “laser” sight. The laser is accurate from about 15 feet, but it’s unpredictable beyond that (darts start to drop after that). It isn’t a horrible idea to remove it altogether if you have no use for it, as that cuts the weight of the gun almost in half.

Regardless, the Nerf Nite Finder is arguably the best Nerf pistol ever made. Its range and accuracy are exceptional, and the price point couldn’t get any better ($6!).

As you’d expect, the range of the Power Strike takes a bit of a hit when you fire both barrels at the same time, but it’s easy to look over that shortcoming when you take the accuracy and ammo storage into account.

1. It’s very quiet
2. The Bungee Blaster doesn’t require batteries
3. The innovation of the ammo

There are little hooks on various places on the gun. You hook the loop end of each bungee around a hook, and then secure the yellow “egg” end in a designated space, thus creating an appropriate amount of tension. When you pull the trigger, the yellow “egg” end is released, and the tension sends it flying.

The Nerf Bungee Blaster really was a good idea, but the bungee ammo was never really embraced.
