What launcher to get

Hi guys,

I love playing scenario games and I am looking into getting a launcher for nerf rockets. The obvious choice was the havoc. It looks great with all of it's possible configurations and its quick and easy breech load instead of muzzle loading or the rifle and under barrel set ups. I was wondering how far rockets can go in games typically and how many shots you can get off of say a 68/45 with the havoc. I am looking into possibly a different launcher now that is incredibly efficient. But it can only be muzzle loaded, no under barrel mount options, and you cannot tamper with the velocity at all. So it shoots the same every single time and that is up to 200 ft. This second launcher is cheaper though too and that is something to consider.

Go with the havoc, I was getting 10-12 shots off a 13/30, so you should be ok.

Heard through the grapevine that Metadyne is getting out of paintball. It probably means it will get difficult to get replacment/accessory parts for the Havoc.

I have not confirmed this however!

The JCS is way more badass and if tuned right can be more accurate then the Metadynd Havoc,
however the havoc probably weighs 1/2 as much as it and performs almost as well as the JCS

Go with the Havoc

There aren't really a whole lot of parts to a Havoc lol. It's basically a tube with an air reg on it.

I've built a few using a industrial pressure washer handle adapted to 2in ABS,simple and inexpensive,will shoot about 150ft at under 200 fps using CO2 or standard reged tank,make sure to use air tool oil in it if using CO2 so the seals stay in good shape
