This series was one that was always on my recommended list and for ages I set it to the side and read on with other authors, content that I wasn’t missing much. After seeing it for sale for a few dollars in a bargain bin at the book store I picked it up thinking that even for a few dollars it can’t be that bad. I regret now that I didn’t pick this series up as soon as it came out! The wit and humor of this story and its fellow’s blew me away and becoming close to the characters is unavoidable. Mr. Colfer creates a world full of mystery, intrigue, danger, excitement, humor, love and companionship. I would have paid much, much more for this book had I known what I was missing. I highly advise anyone looking for a great read and a wonderful story to pick up this series and make time to read it cause you won’t be able to put it down.

I’ve owned this scale for a little over a month now.

I like the look of the scale and I love the display. I keep it in our bedroom (so my children don’t play with it) and it’s nice to be able to weigh myself in the morning without turning the light on if my husband is still asleep.

I weighed myself one morning just before I left for my WW meeting and when I weighed myself there, my weight was within 1 pound of what it had been at home, so I would say it is pretty accurate.

On the down side, it seems to “stick” a little. I weigh myself every day and I am accustomed to normal fluctuations with one’s weight. The second week I had it, I weighed exactly the same every morning for four days in a row. Thinking maybe the batteries were already shot, I changed them, and I got a different result when I weighed myself again. But then it kept giving me the “new” weight. I also can weigh myself and drink a 16 oz glass of water and weigh myself again and my weight will remain the same. I finally discovered that if I weigh myself with a handful of books (about 4 pounds) and then weigh myself without, it gives me a new reading instead of the previous reading. So I have to weigh myself twice every morning, though as long as I do that, it seems to work pretty accurately.

Overall I am pleased with the scale and how it functions.

If your N-Strike gun runs the clip feature for ammo, be sure to grab these. The other darts don’t work very well in the clips, they jam th gun, get stuck “dripping” out of the gun, etc. These are the only ones besides the whistle darts that will work in the clips. Believe me, we’ve tried! If Santa is bringing a clip gun, be sure to grab these. I’d try at the local r-us store first or target. They’re tons cheaper than this really high price of twenty bucks. Can’t hardly believe they’re this high here. Highly recommend!

I bought this item after experience shortage of darts while playing with my 2 daughters. We kept on having to stop the game to pick up darts. After getting this, we can keep on playing for a long time. We’re losing these darts like crazy though. Blame it on all the junks in the house my wife bought.

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.

I brought the refills for guns that I purchased they worked very well. They stuck to the vest like they said they would. The kids that I gave these to were happy to get the extra bullets. Thanks for prompt shipping so I had them in time for the Holidays.

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.

This is a very useful tool to remove fur from the undercoat. My dogs seem to enjoy being brushed with it.
