      Hi Keith! Sometimes gellets are squashed when firing and the barrel can get clogged or obstructed from the debris.  Try removing the barrel to see if any cleaning is required.  To clean, use a can of compressed air to blow out all the debris before tightening. Please give us a call to 1844-GELLETS (that's 1 844 435 5387) or email us directly to [email protected] if you have any other questions! gel-blaster

    First gun, battery drained in 10 min. I thought the gun was defective and exchanged it for the same product. My second gun arrived and just had slightly more battery. Useless. I'm returning it tomorrow. Not to mention my kid's disappointment.

    Best Buy sent me a used item. The box had been opened and the gel beads had been replaced with generic brand one that were not the right size and did not work. Total disappointment as a Christmas present.

    Lots of fun in an easy to use package. No mess when outside. Also I love the look. I'm tired of all the tactical stuff. My nephews love it.

    I recently got one of these gel blasters and it's honestly one of the most fun things I've ever owned! Me and my friends go to the park and have wars and it's so much fun! We've even been able to play in the dark and still see who we're shooting. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a great outdoor activity!

    Fully Automatic the Surge! Never had so much fun blasting. My kids and I do this 3X per week and its always a lot of running around. Product is amazing, quality A+ and with 10,000 rounds of ammo it last 3-4 hours. Oh and don't forget the ammo tub they sell, it is a game changer on loading...

    This is a great product to keep kids active and entertained. I also like the ammonition solution, specially that I don't have to worry about cleaning up when kid's are done playing. I will get the rifle version for adults as we head the summer!
