Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
Most motorized NERF blasters require AA, C, or D alkaline batteries. Refer to your specific model's manual for the exact type and quantity. Batteries are typically not included in the box.
If your blaster jams, first remove the magazine (if applicable). Check the jam access door, usually located on the side or top of the blaster, and remove any stuck darts. Ensure the door is fully closed before attempting to fire again.
No. While many N-Strike Elite blasters use standard Elite darts, other series like NERF Rival, Mega, and Ultra require their own specific ammunition types which are not interchangeable.
Gelfire rounds utilize a super absorbent polymer. Soak the dehydrated rounds in clean tap water for 3–4 hours until fully hydrated. Drain excess water before loading them into the hopper.
Hasbro typically offers a 90-day limited warranty on NERF products covering manufacturing defects. Damage caused by misuse, modification, or accidents is generally not covered.
