Amazon.com Review
The Nerf N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 gives you the auto-blasting advantage when you're at foam-filled war with your friends and enemies. Children and adults ages 6 and up will love the EBF-25, the largest full auto blaster that Nerf makes. It lets you shoot 25 sonic micro darts at up to 3 darts per second for an offensive assault.  | What We Think
Fun Factor: 
Durability: 
(what this means)
The Good: Machine gun-style Nerf gun fires multiple shots per second
The Bad: The included 25 darts run out fast; gun is a bit too heavy for running around with
In a Nutshell: A great addition to any Nerf artillery, the Vulcan EVF-25 provides an advantage thanks to the sheer force of shooting 25 darts in ten seconds | At a Glance Ages: 6 and up
Requires: 6 D batteries

Full Auto Design Gives You a Quick-Firing Advantage
The first thing we noticed when we took the EBF-25 out of the box was how substantial it was. The gun itself was large, brightly colored in yellow and orange, and heavy enough for it to be a burden for quick missions; accessories included a tripod, ammobox, and ammobelt. The instruction booklet did a good job of describing the assembly process, which took about ten minutes. There is a handle that allows you to easily carry the gun around, but we would have appreciated a strap even more. The darts are held inside an ammobox in a 25-shot belt, which is fed through the gun. You'll feel like Rambo when you carry the gun, or sit it on its tripod for taking out enemies by the bucketload. After we'd installed the required six D batteries (not included), we pulled the trigger to see the gun work methodically through our belt of darts. It took only 10 seconds to blast through the included 25 darts, flinging them thirty feet across the room. We wished there were more darts included in the box since it seemed a bit silly that we needed to spend a few minutes to pick up the ammo, and then reload them onto the belt, after shooting for only about ten seconds. A refill pack can be purchased separately, which, we think, would be a wise investment if you want to effectively beat your enemies. The gun also has a single-shot mode that lets you shoot with extra precision. Rather than battery powered, you have to pull back on a spring-loaded lever, and then use the trigger release lever to shoot the dart. In our experience, you can achieve a little bit more distance this way than with the auto-fire mode. Tactical Rail System Allows for Fun Additions
The Vulcan EBF-25 features the Nerf Tactical Rail System, allowing it to use most N-Strike accessories, such as the night vision Tactical light accessory for night-time missions. For those interested in Nerf-fights, the Vulcan EBF-25 should be in everyone's artillery; the rapid-fire design gives players the advantage when engaging the enemy, and is ideal when it can be used on the back of a moving vehicle, or a stationary setting.

 DON'T BUY This Toy December 3, 2008

This toy never worked. It wouldn't feed the bullet string through and my son was soooooooooooooo disappointed. We exchanged it and the same thing happened. Not only that, his best friend had the exact same experience. My son was beyond disappointed and we are big Nerf fans!!!! He returned it and got the N-Strike Longshot and he is thoroughly satisfied with that model. Good luck if you buy this toy!!!! You're setting your child up for a huge disappointment!!!
Tons of fun.... that lasted 1 day December 2, 2008

I purchased this for my sons birthday. He is the youngest of 4 boys and they all like to play nerf dart wars. We were hoping that the machine gun would be a lot of fun, and he was hoping for 'flare and more of a fighting chance'. The gun worked fabulously for the first afternoon and evening. If I completed the review within the first 24 hours it would have been five stars. All of the boys loved it. Early the second day the gearing mechanism started failing to advance the belt and load the next "round". In addition, I noticed the cylinder that releases the compressed air and provides the energy to launch the nerf bullet was jammed and didn't return to recessed position. The cylinder must recess to allow advancing of ammo belt. I suspect it was the jamming of the compression chamber cylinder that caused belt advancement gear failure. I tried disassembling the gun to examine what was causing the jam. I learned there was no disassembling and the only choice was to completely break several plastic welds to learn what caused the issue.
Summary, a great gun for about 500 shots after that the manufacturing materials and quality of assembly failed at it is now in the dumpster for recycling.
 Fun, but flawed December 2, 2008
the nerf vulcan does shoot full auto. it shoots 3 shots per second, but when its on, it makes a loud noise. you can also shoot 1 shot at a time. it jams consistantly, and weighs a lot.
Pros-
shoots fast
easy to load in a new clip
shoots pretty far
Cons-
heavy
jams
unaccurate
Review of the nerf vulcan November 29, 2008

ok! first of all, it does NOT shoot 3 darts per second. it fires 1, maybe 2 per second. and it is extremely heavy. i dont reccomend it for a child of 7 years or younger. it is rather durable though. but the downside of it is that it takes six "d" batteries. I would reccomend the buzzbee toys air blaster tommy 20 automatic dart gun. it shoots 2 darts per second, holds 20 darts, and only takes exactly 3 "aa" batteries. plus, i got it for only [...] dollars. you wont be dissapointed by it. I have ALOT of dart guns, and the vulcan is a waste of money.

This is a fun gun. I'll spare all the usual details and note that the biggest problems are chasing down the darts, and seating the darts in the belt. Often times my gun will jam when a dart, not seated properly, only half fires out of the belt. When the belt advances, the dart is stuck in the barrel, jamming the rifle. You have to force open the breech (not easy) to pull it out. However, still fun. Buy extra belts!
