RETURN of the NERF of the LIVING DEAD

R.I.P. to old friends

 Greetings NERFerS. My apologies for the lack of attention lately. Since my last post the fall releases finally started filling in the store shelves locally, so it's about time for a new blaster! That's exciting!
Getting back to the blog scene also had a few surprises... Despite my lack of anything new for you, you have been sticking with me and I really appreciate it! NERF ON NERFerS!!! I also see that TACTICAL TAG has closed up shop  and NERF MODS & REVIEW (although done posting since 2014) is just gone now. These were 2 of my favorite blogs. I thought this was sudden and the removal of NM&R... a little odd? I'm very sorry to see them go.
 It's been a while since I added any blasters to the Armory. I had been thinking that the CROSSBOLT was going to be the next addition, I even had one in hand but while they had dozens of  CROSSBOLTs There were only 2 of these... I first wrote about it last January (the same day as every other NERF blog Ha ha!) and again in June... and it is the peak of zombie season after all... so I thought I have got to get a DOOMINATOR.

With a sealed box only the darts can be seen,



No more speculating about this one -  I picked it up at an out-of-the-way Walmart for $28.88, not bad. As you can see in the picture it comes with a blaster, instruction sheet, 24 green Zombie Strike darts and requires a minimal amount of final assembly.


inside  you will find all this.

 You will need to attach 2 of the drums by sliding them in to place and you also need to screw the front handle on. The pump grip will fit in the bottom or either side.

3 position priming handle.

 

 No tools are needed for assembly and this should only take a minute or so and there is a handy instruct sheet .


Drums "clicks" in to place.

   




Handle "screws"  in to hole.


 




My new fully assembled and loaded DOOMINATOR ready for ghoulish actions!

                           Now it's time to face the undead!

I really like this one. I kind of thought I would. The DOOMINATOR is an excellent example of  pure NERF madness at it's most fun. It's about 21.75 in.(55 cm) long, hefty and bulky. I think the overall design is cool with one major exception. I would say everyone would agree that the shoulder stock is way to short and thus the worst feature.

The DOOMINATOR packs 24 darts in to four 6 rnd. drums. The drums are advanced with the orange lever below the trigger guard. The blaster is primed and the top/in-line drum is rotated with the front grip handle. The DOOMINATOR also has  NERF's trademark SLAMFIRE feature and getting all 24 darts down range a respectable 45 to 50 feet (13-15 m) doesn't take long. I went ahead and broke out a 30 pack of special Z-strike darts I had been saving for a special occasion.

I actually have 2 extra packs ! 



  In  just a few hours the streets will be crawling with zombies, ghouls, Disney Princesses and all sorts of other un-dead! Fortunately I have my DOOMINATOR to defend myself  from them all. I expect it will preform well.



                       
                                                         HAPPY HALLOWEEN
