- Ash, Army of Darkness
Remember the movie Army of Darkness? Watching Ash blast away undead with his 12 Gauge Double Barreled Remington (aka "Boomstick!") was simply priceless!
Over the years, zombie-themed movies have also featured dual barreled shotguns being the preferred firearm for suppressing hordes of zombies and ghouls. It'll be fun to re-enact those scenes... you know, just to practice in case of zombie infestation!
Well, Buzz Bee has answered that call with the Buzz Bee Double Shot!
The Double Shot uses a spring powered air plunger system that is primed by "breaking" open the blaster (replicating the action of a remington), a taut cord inside the mechanism pulls back the plunger.
This blaster features an interesting shell-based ammo system, it comes with 4 plastic ammo shells which you slot foam darts into (compatible with most nerf foam darts). After you "break" open the blaster, just load in the 2 prepared shells.
Snap close the blaster, aim and fire. The trigger system is 2-stage, which means you can fire off 1 shot at a time (left barrel then right barrel) by pulling the trigger lightly once then harder another time. Or you can just pull the trigger all the way to fire off both shots at the same time.
Range is comparable to Nerf blasters at around 25-30 feet.
Here comes the fun part... "break" open the blaster, both empty shells will fly out and hit the floor with a most satisfying "clink-clunk"! ... But don't stop, quickly load in another 2 prepared shells and snap back to fire, the zombies are rushing in!
Arrrgh... my brains...
