Gel Blaster XL Ammo

After a disappointing experience with a different gel blaster where the gel beads constantly got stuck, fired multiple at once, or exploded inside the chamber, I was skeptical going into this purchase. The Original Supersized Gel Blaster Surge XL proved that skepticism wrong pretty quickly.From the moment we started using it, the difference in build quality was noticeable. The gun feels solid in hand, not like something that is going to crack or jam after a few uses. The aim was consistent and accurate, and the distance lives up to what is advertised. At 150 or more feet of range, there is real playability here that cheaper alternatives simply do not deliver.What stood out most was how reliably the gel beads fed and fired. No jams, no double-feeding, no beads bursting before they leave the barrel. For anyone who has dealt with a budget gel blaster that turns every session into a troubleshooting exercise, that consistency is a genuine relief. Both semi and full-auto modes worked smoothly without any issues switching between them.This is the kind of product that does exactly what it promises, which is not something you can say about every toy in this category.Pros:Solid, well-built construction that feels durableConsistent and accurate aimImpressive range at 150 or more feetGel beads fed and fired reliably with zero jamsNo double-firing or beads exploding in the chamberSemi and full-auto modes both functioned without issuesNoticeable quality upgrade over budget gel blaster alternativesCons:At a higher price point than basic gel blasters, though the quality justifies itGel beads require soaking time before use, which requires some advance planningBottom Line:If you have been burned by a cheaper gel blaster that jammed, misfired, or made a mess before the beads even left the gun, the Gel Blaster Surge XL is worth the upgrade. The build quality, range, and reliable firing performance set it apart from the competition. This one actually delivers on its promise and makes for a genuinely fun experience without the constant frustration of troubleshooting.

This thing is great!!! My whole family loves it. It is extremely powerful so please becareful when shooting people.Only thing I wished was there is a replacement for the ammo holder cause mine is very wobbly other than that we love this gun its fun shooting random objects of friends whos standing very far away cause the radius on this gun is insane.

Best thing since sliced bread. Never jams, very good range and hard enough to hurt and leave a welt, without having bruising for days. I love this thing. I used it in the house for days and there is no real mess once the balls dry up. Great investment. Lasts forever on a charge.

Okay, so I started with a brand synonymous for there foam flinging blasters, but had actually heard of this one first for the gel blasting kind. It’s a fantastic and fun toy that the whole family enjoys. I have purchased several of each now for everyone, and have the XL for myself, to test. The added FPS over the N brand doesn’t seem to make all that much difference in range, accuracy, or felt pain. Not sure the larger hopper makes for longer play time either as in single fire mode, I still tend to see 2-3 fully sized gellets come out. 3-5 with the 3 round burst, and I’ll assume full auto is fine.Accuracy on it seems about the same as any blaster without a hop up on it, but I’d say still marginally better accuracy and range than an off the shelf foam dart blaster toy.Size and use is great for older kids or adults, however, the other branded one I have is convertible and in my opinion equally suitable for use in the same way.Where this blaster really shines is the fire mode selector and the trigger. While small, it only needs a finger tip to work and is as easy to push as anything. It also fires as fast as I can pull it. The other brand, it seems to have a better single fire, however the trigger is “mushy” and has a delay when firing. Single fire with the XL for the win, but the not really single round is a slight negative. I believe this has to do with how the sensor to keep the firing piston is oriented. With N brand, it is cycled to stay closed and the XL stays open. I believe this allows more rounds to fall in during play and get fired out. While some reviews out there have mentioned N jams and the XL doesn’t…eh, I have issues with them both. Seems inherent with gravity fed blasters. Maybe a slight edge to the XL, and I’d have to guess that has to to do with a fractionally wider hopper opening.Where this one has a whole category the other can’t touch is night time play. You can see the gellets during the day to help you aim, but at night, or let’s say even dusk, there’s no way to see them blast out. You will need and you will want some tracer rounds and only Gel Blaster seems to have that. Get the night version or at least the added part to charge up the glow rounds. They work very well and add to the play time and a new aspect of the fun playing in the dark.

Great for shooing away magpies
