Hasbro NERF M41-A Pulse Rifle

Some fan expos may not allow airsoft weapons in, but may allow a nerf blaster. Good for the cosplayers out there. I'm tempted, but I already have a Snow Wolf.

I’m in the exact same boat. Why buy a 100.00 toy and put hours of work into it just to end up with a pretty repainted toy? Now, if I didn’t have the airsoft version, yes, I’d make the investment and put in the time.
I have 3 PR's, a spatcave, an icons, and an airsoft. But I have a lot of fun modding and painting nerf guns. Had to have one of these.
 
This is Hasbro pulse UK site. If you check the date for pre order by, it is in U.S format for end of Oct 2021, this may be coming in January.

The US pulse site specifies available to ship Oct 2022... available to pre-order 10/31/2021.

so order by this Halloween - get it next year in October for next Halloween.

But why would the UK site use 2 different date formats?
Doea the U.S site have October 2022 explicitly written out?
 
This looks awesome! I'm happy with my Airsoft (and I spent a crap ton of time this spring making a stand for it), but this looks like a great option for cosplayers, the younger ones, or people on a budget. I'd have a blast repainting this thing. Def going to show this to some friends.
 
I'm really not sure about this. First local shop listed it for 120€, so ~$140.

I really would love a replica of the rifle, but I don't know if a nerf gun would make me happy... after all, it takes more work, than a complete finished "unbox and have fun" softair...

Softairs are sold out at the moment and the HCG replica is too expensive in my opinion. Really don't know if I should give it a try...
 
I look at it this way; Airsoft M41A = $280.00 (Snow Wolf brand) - $360 (Evike Matrix brand), plus applicable shipping.

Nerf version, $100 and change with tax, shipping included. That and $15 worth of rattle can paint and some disassembly/masking and you'll have a decent, lightweight, something you can shoot in the house at a lot less than 360 FPS, reasonable replica of the real thing. This is very, VERY appealing to those of us who've wanted for a long time but simply can't (or won't) justify dropping multiple Benjamins on one (like me).

Granted, the biggest turn off I can see on the Nerf one is the "triggers" in front of the Thompson grip and (the comically oversized one) in front of the magazine, but I can live with that since it's going to be relegated to a shelf or as a wall hanger only. And likely the only ones that will see it are the wife and I.

(I might nerve up the cats on occasion, but I digress...)

My $.02.
 
I've just ordered from the UK site. Hoping for a Jan delivery. It was the pre order date of 10/31/2021 that made me check the date out again.
I've also dropped them an email requesting clarification on the date. That's a cock up if it's supposed to be for UK orders.
 
Def getting this to meddle with. I've already got 2 HCGs to cover the prop replica side. Looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun
