This maybe the fastest bullet made for Nerf. The bullets are streamlined and has the least wind resistance. It has the smallest tip. They work best on the clips with the Recon CS-6. They also work on the Maverick, the one with the 6-shooter rotating barrel, which I think is one of the best guns made by Nerf.

Unfortunately, it will not work with the one-shooters such as the EX-3. I was a bit baffled why it won’t since the bullets share the same diameter, inside and out, with the rest. What I found out was that the hole in this particular bullet is shallower than the other bullets. Probably to counterbalance the lighter tip. If you press the orange foam just below the tip, the foam is solid and not hollow. This prevent the bullet from going inside the one-shooter all the way in the barrel.

Using them on clip guns, there is also an annoying problem of jamming, squashing and chipping. This is more of a problem with the guns instead of the bullets. But still, it shorten the life of the bullets as well as ruining accuracy.

I am writing this entry after just receiving notice that the author of this book, J.D. Salinger, has just passed away at 91. I am living proof, although I am sure no alone on this account , that the teenage angst that preppie Holden Caulfield, the narrator of “Catcher In The Rye”, was caught up in his immediate post-World War II generation was contagious all the way down at the bottom of society to housing project kids like me later on. Needless to say this high school assigned-reading was one of those books that I devoured at one sitting, if I recall correctly. But here is a better perspective on the book. Some books you read once and move on. Others you read, re-read and live out, including on a trip to New York a stay at the old Taft Hotel. How is that for having a more than a literary effect on the reader. Only Jack Kerouac’s “On The Road” had more. So long, J.D.

This was my 2nd purchase of this product, this time as a gift to my Dad. He preferred this to the window-stick-attacher for the Garmin and we have used it for long and short car rides, traffic, bumpy roads, hills, you name it and it’s the most reliable, comfortable and easily used friction mount out there. Highly recommend it. We hide it just under our seats when we park and drop the Garmin a corner to make it invisibile to the passing eye.
