Question 5

Can we book our own venue?

Accepted Answer

Yes but please check with us before booking the venue so that we can make sure it is a suitable size.

Question 6

Can we bring our own guns?

Accepted Answer

Parties / Monthly Clubs: Yes as long as they fire the elite nerf darts, not mega or ultra darts. We currently use X-Shot darts which are compatable with the nerf elite range. We have found that some bigger Nerf blasters may not work as well with these darts.   Upon bringing your own gun you will be given a sanitiser wipe and asked to sanitise your gun before and after use as in guidelines with our COVID-19 procedures.   Laser Ops Pro Guns: No, we do not allow outside guns to be brought in to our laser ops pro battles, this is because our guns are linked to our app for the game play and outside guns can be customised via the app which will lead in an unfair advantage to other players.
