This review is from: Nerf N-Strike Stampede ECS (Toy)
Nerf Stampede.... where to start?

First of all, this is a great toy for little kids, big kids and adults alike. it shoots about 3 darts per sec. Comes with 60 darts, 3x18 dart clips and 1x6 dart clip.
It also has a bi-pod/foregrip and a shield (the shield is pretty fun but its nigh-impossible to aim while using it).
It requires 6xD batteries which does make the back of the gun a bit heavy. but nowhere near as heavy as the vulcan.
Pros/Cons:

Pros:
Fully automatic
4 clips and lots of darts in the box + goodies (shield/grip)
Good weight (can be fired with one hand but isnt so light that its not much fun using)
Darts fire about 10m/30ft.
theres alot of rails for sights/lasers/torches
its just a really good gun

Cons:
Cannot be fired without batteries (no manual single shot action like in the vulcan (but the vulcan did jam a hell of a lot)
jam clearing door does tend to pop open sometimes. the locking action is a bit weak (easier for small kids annoying for big ones)
loading an 18 dart clip from scratch is a tad annoying after a while

The grip does not lock that well!!! if you pick the gun up by the foregrip the grip will slide off the gun and the gun will fall. This ISNT a bother when your shooting since it only slides one way... but realisticly the grip is there not only to hold but to pick up aswell.

Overall:
A bit educational since you can see how the gun works (but what kid will bother to understand it)
Its not full metal... it will break if you drop it from a height but it is NERF... NERF products have been known to last a hell of a long time.
Its alot of fun. shooting at siblings or other people makes this gun alot of fun.(or playing Humans vs Zombies on uni campus).

My advice is if you can afford it and you are into these; it is VERY good value for money.
