Storing darts in a clip or a drum is also a no-no. Clips and drums rely on an internal spring to push the darts into the breech. While there is little effect on the darts themselves, the tension of the spring in a clip or drum can be seriously affected, especially when stored in the loaded position for long periods of time.

Bottom line, store your darts somewhere else. Not in the blaster, not in a clip, not in a drum. Put 'em in a box, or a bag, or better yet a pouch designed to hold Nerf darts.

Sorry for belaboring the point. But I can't believe the number of blasters I've procured online that had darts improperly store in them. Clearly some people have no clue.
