    The shield would be so much better with two straps instead of one. Literally every shield is better with two straps instead of one.

    Bitcoins are going to be as successful as Swatch Internet Time watches.

    Nerf has been around since our childhoods and is only getting stronger every day.

    Bitcoins are not threadworthy.

    I got some Nerf guns. And some Super Soakers.

    Jordyn was thinking about getting me a Nerf gun for my birthday, but I basically have all of them that I want.

    Oh, and BuzzBee, the guys that make those goofy ones with the pointless but neat cartridges? They also make a bolt-action rifle called the Hunter that's similarly neat. It's way too small, and I can't get Nerf darts to work with it, but it's still fun to screw around with.

    I'm not sure who made it but I had an off-brand Nerf gun as a kid that operated much like a Super Soaker where you'd pump it to build pressure in the air chamber, but it had attachments for the barrel. It could fire suction-cup darts, foam missiles (like the Nerf Bow and Arrow) and foam balls (like the Ballzooka). It was pretty awesome but the Ballzooka barrel never worked properly and I eventually broke all the cheap darts and two of the three foam missiles.

    Turned out later that if you pumped it in a tub of water it made a halfway-decent water cannon when you pulled the trigger. I used it that way until the pressure chamber got a crack in it.

    I know what you're talking about, Tank. I think. Maybe.

    The one I'm thinking of had 2 barrels; one that held 4 Nerf darts, which fired sequentially, and also a ballzooka cannon under the barrel, like Ripley's gun at the end of Aliens.

    Only better.

    No, mine had 3 barrels but only one could be connected at a time. It wasn't made by nerf but it fired all nerf-standard ammo. The ballzooka attachment held 3 or 4 shots that never worked properly and the other two had to be breach-loaded.

    The chamber only rotates when you cock it, so you don't have to worry about skipping a dart by pulling the trigger when it's not cocked, like the Maverick.
