Nerf Rival Zeus MXV-1200 Blaster: Not Firing Or Turing On.

Tue, 16 Jul 2024 03:45:25 -0700

I have one of the Zeus Rival guns and for some reason its not firing at all. I have the ridiculous 6 C batteries in right but still nothing. I have also made sure to turn off the safety. I am going to have to open her up soon if I am unable to find a resolution. If anybody has any ideas feel free to help.

Nerf N-Strike Firestrike: Darts fall out of gunbarrel

Wed, 23 Jun 2021 18:40:19 -0700

The dart is loaded in the gunbarrel, then the three pins at the bottom of the barrel pushes it 2-3 cm out again, thus the gun won't fire effectively.

Any good solutions? Thank you:-)

Nerf N-Strike Elite Retaliator: Why is the sliding component jamming?

Mon, 21 Mar 2016 12:17:36 -0700

As a frequent firer of my Nerf N-Strike Elite Retaliator, I often am bothered by the sliding mechanism on the top of the blaster. I have no problem sliding it back to fire, but the joy that I experience by watching the dart strike my intended target is interrupted abruptly. The sliding mechanism does not slide forward completely over the dart-clearing access door. What is a man to do?

Nerf Gun: How do I fix a brand new Nerf Modulus Regulator that is not firing?

Sun, 26 Dec 2021 12:33:55 -0700

Our son just got the Regulator for Christmas. We put the batteries in it today and loaded the mag to let him play with it. Well,that didn't go as planned. It revs up like it's going to fire. But when you go to pull the trigger nothing happens. It doesn't matter what selection you are on for firing either. I did look at the belt that helps propell the dart without a mag in it with my finger pushing down the sensor button. The belt does not spin or move. I'm not for sure if it's supposed to unless the trigger is pulled. Just trying to fix this dart gun. Please help

Automatic Tommy 20: How do I stop darts from getting stuck and jamming the gun?

Sat, 26 Nov 2022 09:40:09 -0700

I've noticed that when I fire and use my dart gun for extended periods of time darts have a tendency to get stuck near the tip of the gun rather than firing out normally. Is this due to a defect in how the gun was built or some other issue?

Nerf N-Strike Elite Strongarm: Darts not firing at full capacity

Thu, 22 Aug 2019 09:42:30 -0700

I have 2 strongarms. Sometime ago they were dropped down a flight of carpeted steps. Ever since then, they don't fire at full capacity. Out of the six darts, one or two might work as they should. I have dissassembled it, and nothing looks damaged, yet they still don't work right. Why could this be? Is something out of alignment?
