A few months ago I bought a set of six Nerf guns and 12 darts for my dorm. Needless to say, we needed more darts -- even before we lost any, that was only two darts per gun, and the darts only lasted maybe 24 hours. So I bought the ammo box (plus a few more darts on top of that) the next day, hoping that would be enough to last the three weeks until the end of the semester. As it turned out, they not only lasted through the semester, they even made it into summer storage, and three weeks into this semester, we still have plenty of darts (I haven't counted, but it looks like pretty close to 100 still). It seems that an ammo box is a much more compelling place to keep darts than a plastic bag with a note asking people to return the darts when they're done with them, so in addition to having a lot of darts to start with, we're also losing them at a much slower rate now.

My only complaint is that the ammo box is only available with either sonic or streamlined darts, and not suction cup darts. Sure the sonic darts make a whistling sound if someone manages to actually shoot one all the way down the hall, but we mainly use Nerf guns at relatively close range, where darts that stick to windows, ceilings, furniture, and occasionally even people are far more appealing than darts that would whistle if we shot them several feet further but otherwise just hit someone or something and fall to the ground.

Okay, our family has been having alot of nerf wars around the house, and we have lost almost all of the refill packs we have bought. I bought 2 of these off amazon for 15$ each, and havn't lost a single dart yet! if you get the kids to put darts in the storage box wenever they find them, these should keep the kids satisfied for for awhile.
PS: the storage box doesn't hold 300 as claimed, can only barely hold 200.

I might be a bit old to be playing with nerf guns, but I do it anyway's. I bought a couple of these 100 packs of darts when I found them on the cheap, so I wouldn't have to worry about loosing any. They shoot, they whistle, they annoy my roomate. In short they work as described.

This box is great because it comes with so many Nerf darts and also has room for many, many more!!! The 100 darts it comes with barely begins to fill it.
I bought two boxes of these so my boys could have Nerf gun wars with friends and each team have its own box of darts.
The ony negative about the box in my opinion is that the latch is a little tricky to open. It is a plastic piece that goes down into a sort of plastic buckle. You have to depress the plastic buckle at the proper angle to get the piece out and open the box. My boys ages 8 and 9 got the hang of it, but it wasn't easy for me at first and really isn't easy even after you get the hang of it.
The box has a great handle on one end for easy carrying.

In the details is a claim that these nerf bullets fit/work with the CS6 longshot series-they don't. For the fortune they charge for these they could at least sell us the right accessories. I love Nerf guns and nerf gun wars with my kid and his friends is a blast but Nerf ammo is sure confusing about what ammo works with what weapon.

The darts were much better then I expected! They were the whistling darts and not just the normal darts which was just what I was looking for. I brought this darts into the office and gave them around now its hard to walk 10 steps without getting pegged with a dart. They are a lot of fun and the office loves them.

I picked these up as a gift around the Holidays for my 9 year old son. He needed some extra Nerf darts and has always wanted the Nerf ammo box. I didn't want to spend the high prices the big box retail stores ask for these..typically 40 bucks in our area. I managed to snag these for less than half that around the holidays! I was able to pick up a Streamline AND Microsonic ammo box via amazon and get them shipped to me for less than I'd pay for a single box in any store in our area!!!

The deal was awesome with free shipping!

As for the product itself there isn't too much to review. These are simply extra Nerf darts and function as intended. Occasionally a dart will jam or stick in one of his guns and will tear, but that is an issue with the gun and not really the dart so it didn't impact my review of these darts.

The Nerf ammo box itself is constructed of a decent plastic. There is plenty of room to store extra darts beyond the 100 that are included. (Nerf claims the box will hold up to 300).

The only negative aspect of this experience was the latch that holds the ammo box closed can be a little difficult to operate. Getting the box open is sometimes a challenge for younger hands. We've found holding the box against your body with the front facing away and lightly pushing the front of the box in before lifting up makes it MUCH easier to open quickly. It does seem to be getting easier to use now that it has had a month's worth of use.

Other than the minor issue with the box we have no complaints what so ever. Keep an eye on pricing...as I notice the prices fluctuated drastically over a 7 - 10 period. It may just be because it was close to Christmas however. Be sure to compare prices online versus in the major retail stores because you can save a ton of money purchasing via amazon. Free super saving shipping was fast and delivered sooner than promised!

Also if you are picking up Nerf darts as a gift for someone be sure you purchase the correct style. These ammo boxes come in two different versions. One is filled with streamline darts (darts to be used in Nerfguns that use the "Clip System" magazines) and the other is filled with Micro-sonic or "whistler" darts. The dart styles aren't always interchangeable. For example guns that shoot the streamline darts won't be able to shoot the Microsonic/"Whistler" darts.

Overall this was a great purchase and I'm glad I found such a great deal!!

Got the set as a present for my 10 yr old son and he loves it! He likes that he has so many darts and I like that there is a specific place to put said darts once he is done playing. Price was fair as well. Very happy.

If you intend to self modify your nerf gun, these are the best for shooting long range, and making noise while doing so!

I got these as a gold box deal and am happy with the product; however they don't fit in the N-Strike gun that we have. I thought all N strike ammo fit the N guns. We do have smaller guns that they work with tho and they are so much fun!
