P.S. I know that a new Maverick isn't too bad and that it is the best blaster on this list, but an old Maverick(like the ones that I have got) can jam all of the time and not even allow you to fire more than two shots without unjamming it. I personally liked the Rapid Fire Tek, it was a fun blaster to toy around with and the lever action meant reasonably high fire rates too. The lever itself is a nice metal one too instead of some cheap plastic crap.

I have a bit of a soft spot for Buzz Bee blasters 'cause they're so creatively engineered. If only they could get ways to refine their blasters to the point where they worked and worked well...

I do agree with you, I'm really interested in western history(particularly Native American history) so I love the leaver-action Repeater rifles so I thought about getting that gun but I saw reviews of it and the plastic looked bad and the ranges were terrible but I loved the style and the shell ejecting so I was really sad that it just wasn't practical with the price and the performance for my nerf wars. I think that BuzzBee have nice ideas but they just don't have the money to make them with good plastic and make them good.
