About Basic Nerf

Who am I?
A 21 year old guy who lives in Southern California, Los Angeles County area. I’ve been Nerfing since about April or May 2009. I’ve always had a fascination with guns since I was a kid (who hasn’t?) but I never really got to “act it out”. One day while walking down the halls of Kmart in 2009, my best friend and I stumbled upon the foam blaster aisle. Our first purchases were the Buzz Bee Rapid Fire Tek and Tommy 20. Fast forward to January 27, 2010, my idea of starting a non-modding blog for the non-modders comes to life in my Physical Science class. Fast forward to Summer 2011, and Nerf is sending me products to keep and review. I’m glad I have the support of a company that I support and enjoy. I organized and was head Administrator for the Camarillo 2012 Winter Humans vs. Zombies games.

I strive to give my readers and viewers quality content, mostly in the form of articles, battle tested reviews, and good Nerf videos that I find across the internet. The “Basic” name in the blog refers to my lack of modding and little amount of mods on this blog. This site is mostly for the average, stock consumer, but it has Nerf media for everyone. I also have a GoPro Hero2 and Hero3 Black Edition camera, and like to record my Nerf games for everyone’s viewing pleasure. Check out my playlist of those games here.
