All Nerf Guns: The Complete List by Series

All Nerf guns belong to one of 23 lines, and knowing which one you own answers almost every question you have. It tells you which darts fit, whether spares are still made, and what the blaster was built to do. Start with the table, then follow the link to the full write-up. If you would rather skip to the verdict, here are the 10 best Nerf guns, ranked.

All Nerf guns, line by line

All 23 lines in one table. “Retired” means Hasbro stopped making it, not that you cannot still find one. All the links in the last column are searches rather than single products, so they show what is genuinely in stock.

The 4 types of Nerf gun, by how they fire

Series tells you the styling. How a blaster fires tells you what it is like to use, and that is the part most lists leave out. Every Nerf gun ever made falls into one of 4 groups.

The priming words you will meet in reviews

Underneath the 4 types, the thing you physically do to ready the blaster has its own vocabulary. It is worth 30 seconds because these words appear on packaging with no explanation.

• Slide action, you rack a slide back and forward, like the Kronos.
• Pump action, a foregrip you pump, like the Atlas.
• Hammer action, you thumb back a hammer, like the Zombie Strike Hammershot.
• Lever action, a lever under the body, like the SlingFire.
• Bolt action, a bolt you pull back and push forward, like the Ghoulgrinder.
• Break action, the barrel hinges open to load, like the SledgeFire.
• Bow action, you draw a string, like the Wrathbolt.
• Direct prime, you pull the dart holder or barrel itself, which is how most tiny blasters work.

Slam fire is not a priming type, it is a trigger behaviour. On a slam fire blaster you hold the trigger down and work the prime repeatedly, and it fires on every prime. It is the fastest a spring blaster gets.

Curious what any of it is worth in real numbers? Run the figures through our joules to FPS calculator or the kinetic energy calculator.

Which Nerf guns suit which age

Every Nerf box carries an age rating, and it is the one spec Hasbro never leaves off. It is also the fastest filter you have. It cuts 23 lines down to a handful before you read a single review.

These come from Hasbro’s own product pages rather than from retailer guesswork, which matters because retailers get this wrong constantly.

The short version, and it surprised us: almost the entire catalogue sits on the shelf Amazon labels 8 and up for its core lines. The interesting decisions happen at the 2 ends.

The jump to 14+ is not marketing. Those 3 lines do not fire foam darts. Hasbro’s own pages state up to 200 feet per second for Nerf Pro Gelfire and up to 110 for Hyper, and both tell you eyewear is required. The Gelfire page goes further and says plainly that it is not a toy. That is a different category of object from an Elite 2.0, and the rating is doing real work.

Two honest notes on this table. 6+ is the youngest rating we could verify on a current Hasbro page, so if you are shopping for a 4 year old you are in the Junior tier and you should read the specific box. And the licensed lines are the only ones that genuinely straddle 2 ratings: Star Wars runs 6+ to 8+ and the Marvel and Spider-Man blasters run 5+ to 8+ depending on the tier. Check the product, not the brand.

One thing the rating does not tell you is how hard a blaster is to prime. A 8+ Mega blaster can need a real pull, and plenty of 8 year olds struggle with it. If that is the worry, our easier priming picks and the how it fires section above are the better filters.

Age ratings above are from Hasbro’s consumer care product pages, checked 2026-08-16.

Buy the right ammunition once, not twice

The single most common mistake across all Nerf guns is buying darts that do not fit the blaster you own.

There are 5 different dart shapes on this page and they are not interchangeable. Find your line in the table above, then match it here before you order. Our dart buying guide goes deeper on which fly straightest.

Buying this for somebody else? The fastest way to get it right is a free Nerf wish list. Tap “+ Wish list” next to anything on this page, and the darts that actually fit, the batteries it actually takes and eye protection go on the list with it. You get one web address to send to the family, and nobody needs an account to buy from it. See an example list.

Arrows and discs, the 2 the tables miss

Two ammunition types sit outside the dart economy entirely, and neither behaves the way all the darts above do.

Arrows

Arrows are among the oldest Nerf ammunition, sold for close to a quarter century and introduced in 1990 alongside the Bow ‘n’ Arrow. Each carries 3 flimsy wings.

The aerodynamics make an arrow accurate and genuinely long-ranged, and both qualities collapse the moment the wings are damaged. That is why you buy arrows separately and keep spares.

The original was 11 inches. Nine inches became the standard when the Defender T3 introduced it in 1996. After the Triple Strike in 1999, no blaster used arrows at all until the Blazin’ Bow revived them in 2013.

Five variants exist:

• The 9 inch arrow, still sold in refill packs, including the whistling-tip version packed with the Triple Strike.
• The 11 inch arrow, discontinued. It shipped with the Bow ‘n’ Arrow, Crossbow, Arrowstorm and finally the SuperMAXX 5000, plus the buzzing-tip version from the Sonic Stinger.
• The micro arrow, packed with the discontinued Arrow Strike. Sometimes called a 5 inch arrow, and really a missile under another name.
• The gear tooth arrow from the Triple Torch, which swaps the wings for a gear pattern.
• The aero glider from the discontinued Glider Launcher, with longer fins to fly further.

Discs

Discs fly differently from darts and it changes how you use them.

A disc blaster reaches impressive range. But past roughly 15 feet a disc loses flight speed sharply, which gives an opponent time to step aside. You also have to hold the blaster upright and steady, because tilting it wrecks accuracy.

Inside 15 feet, though, discs are a genuinely good way to fight. The standouts:

• Pyragon. A 40-disc drum, the highest capacity in the family, and it accepts every other disc magazine.
• Nitron. The first Vortex blaster and the first disc blaster to need batteries. Up to 20 discs automatically off 6 C cells, with a spare magazine stowed on the stock.
• Revonix360. Slam fire, 30 discs in an integrated drum of 5 six-disc chambers.
• Diatron. The only multi-fire blaster in the series, firing 2 discs at once.
• Zombie Strike Fusefire. From outside the Vortex line. Charges its glow-in-the-dark discs off 3 AAA batteries and holds 10.

Every model, with the specs, is on the Vortex hub.

One buying note that applies across all Nerf guns. Hasbro periodically runs bonus-dart bundles, boxes marked with something like “Double the Darts” carrying twice the usual ammunition for the same price. You can never have too many darts, so when a blaster you already wanted turns up in a value pack, take that box. Value packs on Amazon

Batteries, because half of these are flywheel blasters

All the motorised blasters on this page run on off-the-shelf alkalines, and the big ones eat them.

• 4 D cells: the Mastodon and the RhinoFire.
• 6 AA: the HyperFire, RapidStrike, Stryfe, Infinus, Motoblitz and most Rival blasters.
• 4 AAA: the BattleScout camera and the smaller motorised pistols.

Buy the multipack once and you are done for the season: D cells, 12 pack · AA, 48 pack · AAA, 36 pack

If you are running a rechargeable pack instead, size it first with our LiPo battery calculator and check how long it lasts with the runtime calculator.

All the lines Hasbro still makes

Nine of all 23 lines are still sold. Seven of them are in active production, and 2 more are cases of their own: Nerf Rival has had no new blaster since 2024 and Nerf Hyper none since 2022, so both are covered further down with the lines that have gone quiet. If you want one that arrives new in a box with ammunition you can restock at a supermarket, buy from these 7.

• Nerf Elite 2.0. The mainline, and the safest default. Blue and orange, tactical rails, and it takes the Elite darts that fit more blasters than any other dart.
• Nerf Rebel Ops. The newest line, built around battle roles with bigger dart counts and sling points for outdoor games. Full detail is in our new Nerf guns guide.
• Nerf Pro. The competitive line for older players. Rechargeable and higher velocity, and it fires Rival rounds and Pro darts.
• Licensed blasters. Fortnite, Halo, Minecraft, Star Wars and Marvel builds on existing internals, so most of them eat standard Elite darts. See licensed and crossover blasters.
• Super Soaker. Same shelf, no darts. Every Super Soaker we reviewed is on its own page.
• Loadout. The 2025 modular line and the spiritual successor to Modulus, built around swapping parts rather than buying a new blaster.
• Alpha Strike. The budget end. Simple single shot and clip blasters at pocket money prices, and they take ordinary Elite darts.

Hunting something retired? Most of the blasters on this page are out of production, and Amazon can show you a page it cannot sell you. Used Nerf blasters on eBay is the more reliable route for anything Hasbro stopped making, and the searches below are the reliable route for anything it still does.

The one 2026 change that affects every list on this page

Nerf’s newest lines, N Series and Loadout, fire N1 darts.

Amazon’s own listings say N1 darts are compatible only with N Series blasters. So the drawer of Elite darts you already own does not feed them, and a blaster from the newest shelf starts a second ammunition pile rather than joining the first.

That is worth knowing before you buy anything current, and it is the sharpest dividing line in the catalogue below. Everything Elite-compatible interoperates. The new stuff does not.

The retired lines, one by one

All 14 of the remaining lines are out of production, and 2 more, Nerf Rival and Nerf Hyper, are still sold but have gone quiet rather than been cancelled. That is not a reason to skip them, because a retired blaster often does something nothing on the shelf does, and the used market is where the value sits.

Each entry says what the line was for and whether the ammunition for it is still made, which is the thing that actually decides whether a used blaster is worth buying.

For how the lines arrived in this order in the first place, and which ones changed what came after them, see the history of Nerf.

N-Strike Elite

The 2012 to 2019 workhorse, and the line that supplied most of all the secondhand blasters you will see. Strongarm, Stryfe, Rampage, Disruptor, RapidStrike.

Ammunition is still made, which makes this the safest retired line to buy into. Standout blasters include the PocketStrike, a single-dart sidearm small enough to conceal, and the HyperFire, which empties 25 darts in about 5 seconds at roughly 5 darts per second. The Stratobow holds 15 darts, the highest capacity bow since the Mega Thunderbow.

The N-Strike Elite guide has the full lineup. Browse N-Strike Elite blasters · the Elite 2.0 Commander RD-6

Nerf Mega

Oversized darts that whistle in flight and carry further than all the Elite darts do. Centurion, Mastodon, RotoFury, TwinShock, Thunderhawk.

The Mastodon is the one people remember: a fully automatic flywheel blaster with a 24-dart rotating drum, an over-shoulder sling and a top carry handle, all of which exist because it also carries 4 D cells. Its rate of fire is however fast you can pull the trigger.

The Lightning Bow is stated to reach up to 85 feet. The Mega hub covers the rest. Browse Mega blasters · Mega dart refills

Nerf Rival

Round high-impact rounds instead of darts, fired at around 70 mph, in red and blue team colours. It is the line built for organised matches rather than backyard play.

The Atlas XVI-1200 is a pump-action that fires 2 rounds at once. The Khaos MXVI-4000 was Nerf’s first fully automatic blaster, with a 40-round magazine that empties on a held trigger.

Rival has had no new blaster since 2024, so it sits in this section as a line that has gone quiet rather than one Hasbro has cancelled. Nerf Pro carries the format forward and takes the same rounds, which means the ammunition problem solves itself. Battle cases holding 20 rounds clip to a belt for reloads. The Rival series page has the detail.

N-Strike Modulus

The build-your-own line, and the reason the attachment market exists at all. Barrels, stocks, scopes and bipods that swap between blasters, with over 1,000 stated combinations.

• Ionfire. A pistol with a barrel extension. Small enough to carry, but it loads one dart at a time, so it is not a long-firefight blaster.
• Recon MKII. A 4-in-1 blaster with a stated range up to 90 feet.
• BattleScout IC-10. A springer with a removable 720p camera and a 10-dart clip. The blaster needs no batteries; the camera takes 4 AAA.
• Tri-Strike. The most interesting of them. It fires 3 ammunition types: Mega darts from the front barrel, 10 Elite darts by slam fire, and a missile from an air tank. The pump and launcher detach and join to make a standalone missile launcher.

Our attachments guide covers what still fits. Browse Modulus blasters and upgrade kits

Nerf Zombie Strike

Survivor styling, saw blades and beaten-up paint. It takes standard Elite darts, so of all the retired lines this is one of the easiest to keep fed.

The Crosscut is a pistol with a circular foam saw blade on the barrel that fires 2 darts at once. The Brainsaw puts a long blade up front with 4 dart barrels either side of it, which is the line’s whole idea in one blaster.

Zombie Strike is also the best base for prop and costume builds, which is why it appears so often in our modding guide. The Zombie Strike hub has all of them. Browse Zombie Strike blasters

Nerf Rebelle

Launched in 2013 on pinks, purples and pale blue, and best remembered for its bows. The line drew fair criticism at the time for how it was marketed, and the blasters themselves were good enough that Hasbro reused several designs elsewhere.

• Luminate. Fires illuminated-tip darts at a stated 85 mph.
• Trilogy. Pocket-sized, 3 darts in a row at a stated 90 mph.
• Platinum Bow. The largest Nerf bow made, firing up to 100 feet on 24 inch arrows found nowhere else, with an adjustable scope.

There is also a corner-shot blaster whose muzzle bends around a corner with an adjustable mirror to aim, which remains one of the odder ideas in all Nerf guns. The Rebelle breakdown has the full line.

Doomlands 2169 and Impact Zone

Wasteland styling with exposed mechanics you can actually watch working, which is exactly why it is a favourite base for paint mods.

The Persuader is a hammer-action pistol firing 4 shots in a row. The Double Dealer is crossbow-styled, pump action, firing 2 darts at once from 2 clips of 12.

Impact Zone is the black, white and orange sub-line, and the darts match. The Desolator is semi-automatic with a 10-dart magazine, a see-through window over the internals, a tactical rail and 2 sling points. The Longarm is a 5-dart revolver.

Find Doomlands blasters on Amazon · Impact Zone blasters

Nerf Alien Menace

A short-lived science fiction line, and the smallest of all the lines here, with alien script moulded into the shells in purple, grey and white with orange accents.

The Ravager holds 8 darts in a jagged rotating pump-action barrel. The Incisor holds 16 and carries 2 trigger options, one firing a stream of darts and one taking a single shot at a time.

It takes Elite darts, so a used one is perfectly practical. Find Alien Menace blasters on Amazon

The rest

• N-Strike. The original yellow and orange era: Maverick, Recon, Longshot, Vulcan, Stampede. Takes Elite and Streamline darts, and it is the era most mod guides are written for. N-Strike blasters
• Nerf Ultra. Gold darts that fly further than Elite, and they fit nothing but Ultra blasters, which is the catch. Our Ultra write-up covers it.
• AccuStrike. Spiral-tipped darts for accuracy, sold as its own line and folded into others. The darts are still easy to find.
• Nerf Vortex. Discs instead of darts, and the Nitron still out-ranges most dart blasters. Vortex blasters
• Nerf Dart Tag. Velcro-tipped darts and scoring vests, the closest Nerf came to a league sport. Dart Tag blasters
• Nerf Hyper. Rigid balls about half the size of a Rival round, so a hopper holds far more of them. Rated 14+ for velocity, and not to be confused with the old N-Strike Elite HyperFire, which is a dart blaster. It sits here because it has gone quiet, not because it is cancelled: the 6 blasters all landed in 2021 and 2022 and nothing has followed, but the line is still sold.
• N Series. The 2024 accuracy line built around its own N1 dart, shorter and flat headed. It ran to 2026, and the Elite dart came back when it ended.
• DinoSquad. Dinosaur styled dart blasters and Super Soakers aimed at younger players, on ordinary Elite darts.

The blasters worth knowing about, small and large

A few blasters come up in every conversation about all Nerf guns, and it is worth knowing all 4 before you spend real money.

The TerraScout RC Drone is the most expensive Nerf ever released. A remote controlled tracked vehicle that drives, fires 18 consecutive darts and records 720p video at the same time. It cost roughly what 4 normal blasters cost together.

The Mastodon is the answer if you want that scale in your hands instead. A fully automatic 24-dart flywheel blaster that sits in the premium bracket rather than the collector one.

In the middle, the Tri-Strike and the HyperFire are the 2 worth comparing. The Tri-Strike gives you 3 ammunition types and a detachable missile launcher. The HyperFire gives you 5 darts a second and no modification options at all. That is the whole choice.

At the cheap end, the PocketStrike conceals easily and holds one dart, and the Trilogy fires 3 quick shots from a pocket-sized shell. Both sit at the pocket-money end of the shelf.

If you want one blaster that does all three jobs, there is a longer argument for the best Nerf gun to buy, mod and take to war, which is a different question from which one is best out of the box.

Where to actually play

A blaster is only half of it. The other half is finding a game, and all the lines above are welcome at most of them.

Organised events give you far more leeway on blasters than a backyard does, and they also cap muzzle velocity, so check the ruleset before you turn up with something modded.

Come prepared with more ammunition than you think you need. The most common way a day ends early is everybody running dry at once.

Our guide to Nerf war games and rules covers formats and how to run a battle, and the HvZ loadout checklist is what to pack. For finding events near you, the NerfHaven community is where war schedules get posted.

If you would rather work from a printable list than a guide, the checklists cover the loadout, the bench and battery safety in one place.

How this catalogue is kept current

Nerf retires lines faster than any site can keep up with, so this page does 2 things instead of one.

The write-ups stay, because they are still the clearest description of what each line was built to do. The table at the top tells you which lines Hasbro is still making today, and that is the part that gets updated.

Where a line is retired, the Amazon link is a search rather than a single product, so it shows what is genuinely in stock instead of pointing at a page that no longer sells anything. Retired lines often turn up cheaper away from Amazon, so it is worth reading where to buy Nerf guns, by what you are buying before you pay full price for a used one.

Frequently asked questions

The questions that come up most when people go looking for all Nerf guns in one place.

How many Nerf lines are there in all?

23 on this page, counting Super Soaker and the licensed blasters as lines of their own. 9 are still sold, of which 7 are in active production while Nerf Rival and Nerf Hyper have had nothing new since 2024 and 2022. The other 14 are retired. Counted 2026-08-16.

How many Nerf guns are there in total?

There is no official number, and anyone quoting you a hard total is guessing. Hasbro has never published a count of individual blasters, and it has been making foam dart blasters since 1992. What can be counted honestly is lines, and there are 23 of them on this page: 7 in production, 15 retired, plus Rival still on shelves with nothing new since 2024. Individual blasters run into the hundreds across those lines and the number moves every year, which is why we count lines and tell you the date we counted them.

Do all Nerf guns take the same darts?

No, and this is the mistake that costs people money. There are 5 dart shapes plus Rival rounds and Vortex discs. Elite darts fit the widest range, and Ultra darts fit nothing but Ultra blasters.

Which of all the Nerf lines should a beginner buy?

Elite 2.0. It is current, the darts are in every supermarket, and it takes the same ammunition as most of the retired lines you might buy later. And if you are weighing the off-brand route before committing, our Dart Zone vs Nerf comparison settles what the cheaper darts and blasters actually give up.

Are retired Nerf lines worth buying used?

Often, yes, and that is true of nearly all the retired lines. Check whether the ammunition is still made first. N-Strike Elite and Zombie Strike are the safest because both run on Elite darts.

What is the most expensive Nerf gun?

The TerraScout RC Drone, a remote controlled tracked vehicle that fires 18 darts and records 720p video. It cost around 4 times a normal blaster.

Which of all Nerf guns shoots the furthest?

Of all the blasters on this page, the Rebelle Platinum Bow is stated at 100 feet and the Mega Lightning Bow at 85. The Vortex Nitron still out-ranges most dart blasters despite firing discs.

Once you have picked one, here is how to mod a Nerf blaster, what bolts onto it, and which darts to feed it.
