About Nerf Fortnite DG
This is the biggest battery-free drum in the guide: a 15-dart rotating drum that does not need batteries. It is styled after a blaster from Fortnite, so it doubles as a gift for a kid who plays the game. It averages 4.7 stars across 101 ratings. One reviewer calls it lightweight and says it holds a lot of darts, and another says it is easy to handle.
The caution in the reviews shown comes from a grandparent who found it hard to cock for an 8-year-old grandson. A pump-action blaster takes some grip strength, so it is worth thinking about the age of the kid who will use it. It comes with 15 darts, just enough to fill the drum once, so a refill pack is worth having.
