Gatling Toy Gel Ball Blaster, Dual-Barrel, Full Auto, Long Life Battery, with Muzzle Flash, Automatic Splat Gel Gun, Orby Gun for Backyard Games

Got this for my grandson’s birthday! It looks to be very good quality! It does have to be put together. It shoots very well! Seems to be a safe toy. He loves it!

Don't be fooled by the product images; this toy is small enough and light enough that my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter (who is admittedly enormously tall for her age, dwarfing some three year olds) could easily lift and wield it. The "gatling" barrels also don't rotate, although the flashing lights at the muzzles simulate rotation. I opted to test this against my older two children, who armed themselves with squirtguns and the garden hose, and dear reader, as I blasted gel balls at their stumbling, fleeing forms, their weapons cast aside in blind panic, I felt like Achilles amongst the lesser Trojan heroes. It was quite intoxicating. Putting this together was pretty simple, although a Phillips-head screwdriver will be needed to install the battery. Speaking of, the battery could handle firing the contents of both of the hoppers, but ran out of juice in the middle of a second pair. It should be noted that this thing can really sting. My two kids went out to play with it unsupervised, which my wife insisted I allow, as a sort of social experiment. It wasn't long before a howl of anguish could be heard and the younger child sprinted inside sobbing and babbling incoherently (exactly as I predicted, by the way) because his brother had opted to blast him at point-blank range in all of his most tender areas. Protective eyewear is recommended, as is adult supervision. In terms of cost...I dunno. Fifty bucks (at time of writing) feels pretty steep, especially since you're going to need to buy more gel balls to feed it. But I also believe that pants should still cost eight dollars, so that might just be me.

Does not shoot very well and it jams up a lot

It is a really cool gun. The dimensions are perfect. It is compact for a gatling gun, but big enough to be fearsome and send your opponents running by looks, sound, and rate of fire alone. The mechanics and lights are also great, and it's rate of fire is fantastic (x2). However, the force of the expelled gellets leaves me and my son wanting more. If you have ever been in a gel blaster fight or have watched one, the speed of the expelled gellets in feet per second (fps) is a major factor. If the fps is 120 or over, it stings enough that your opponent has to consider fighting through the mild pain or fleeing. Although this gun shoots a lot of gellets, and has a larger ammo capacity than most other guns to compensate for this, it's fps is under 100 fps, I think it's advertised as 90 fps. I got this as a surprise for my son's 11th birthday. The theme of the party was.....gel blaster mayhem. He and about 12 of his friends were in heated battle for over an hour, and this gun did give him the upper hand, but instead of a homerun, this gun was more of just a pretty cool addition to his blaster collection. We really like this gun, and appreciate the thought and engineering that went into it, but if the force of the expelled gelletems was increased to say over 120 fps, this would be the coolest toy my son has ever possessed. I recommend the product but with the lower fps I would say it is overpriced.

This toy is a blast (literally)! The kids thought this thing looked so cool and like it was about to do some real damage with this thing. We have our nine and six-year-old playing with this and we were honestly surprised at how far the range this thing can shoot across. Even at a close range it doesn’t hurt too bad to where the kids are screaming and crying. The battery lasts a long time. The kids played for at least an hour and a half without it, turning off or needing charged. It’s also super easy to load and super easy to shoot. Our 6 year old is able to manage it just fine on his own. I’d say this is a fair and standard price for this style toy. Everything works as expected (we have used many of these gel blaster guns and this works similarly to all of them - no better, no worse.. at an average price point).

My son got this for his birthday He was definitely stoked.. This is an awesome gun It has a lights noise and trigger pulling action.. Just make sure that you soak the gel balls long enough before you put them in.. He had tons of fun and I love that you can just fill the gel balls with water and then screw on the cap and let him sit and then use the same container to shoot later if you haven't finished them. My son just turned 13 and he absolutely love this toy. He and his teenage brothers played gel blasters all night long on his birthday. This would be a great tour to get if you have a preteen who's not quite yet ready for paintball but on the way to become a paintball buddie... Job blasters are a lot of fun and give a small hard flick when hit.

This Gatling-style gel ball blaster is an absolute blast—literally. The dual rotating barrels give it a ridiculous amount of flair, and the built-in muzzle flash with seven color options makes it feel like a sci-fi prop during backyard battles. Each magazine holds 900 gel balls, so you get a crazy 1,800 shots per reload, and the fact that you can slap on a water bottle as a backup mag is just genius. It’s got serious firepower for a toy, and the 7.4V battery holds up impressively long, pumping out thousands of rounds before needing a recharge. It’s well-built, surprisingly powerful, and just plain fun—definitely not your average orby gun.

Ultimate fun double-barrel Gatlin gun. It's like shooting two gel blasters at a time. Kids love it. Seems durable, but only time will tell. Good color, shoots like one of the high powered gel guns. Alot of fun and functionally works well.
