Thanks to everyone for your great support & enthusiasm! This campaign is over, but because of you, we're moving forward and you can order guns here:

AirForce BlowGuns™

AirForce BlowGuns™ may be the most effective foam dart guns ever made! Can shoot 100 feet, are ridiculously fast & intensely accurate.

Check out the speed measured at Jake's Archery!

Hitting Our Target. In case you're new to Indiegogo, our campaign works on an all-or-nothing basis. That means we have until December 4th to meet our goal of $39,000. So, if Wednesday the 4th comes and we are only at $38,999 ($1 short of the goal) the project dies. We won't be able to move forward, you won't receive your soon-to-be coveted Zombie Apocalypse Control Kit or be the envy of all your foam dart friends, your money will be returned, and we will all be left with just our dreams (oh and a $15,000 mold for a paper weight). 

Riding Shotgun. We're not asking for a handout. We want you to be a part of the project! Take a look at the pictures and videos. If you think these guns are as awesome as we do, you can help bring them out of hiding and into production by purchasing one, two, or six :) of them and help us meet our factory minimums. If you like the project but don't feel the need for a gun, there are other fun perks for being a supporter. 

Pulling Out the Big Guns. This whole project started because we love to play as a family, especially stuff that get us up and moving and away from electronics. So for Christmas a few years ago, we bought some Nerf guns. Our kids loved the concept, but the performance was so disappointing that we created our own guns. Our patent pending design increased the range, speed, and accuracy. Better yet, we got rid of all the springs, gears, and levers that complicate the gun and break easily. Our guns really "blew" away the competition! As we played with neighbors and friends, it only took a round or two for them to put down their gun and come looking for any extras we had. We checked into mass production, but it was $15,000 just for the mold! That made it a little unrealistic for us to produce the guns for Christmas, birthday gifts, and neighborhood games. That's where you come in.

Get Fired Up! Like we said before, there are lots of fun ways to support the project. You can choose from buying the iTunes hit single "Shootin' in the Dark," to stickers, a t-shirt, or a Zombie Apocalypse Control Kit featuring the only gun really capable of making the head shot necessary to take out a Zombie. 

What if you hate Zombies? No problem, there are a million other games you can play with this high performance shooter, limited only by your imagination.

We Won't Blow It (your money, that is). We will use 100% of the pledge amount combined with our own funds, for the mold and to meet the minimum order quantities.

Show Me Your Guns. We built a few prototypes and have a patent pending on the very best one. After some rigorous testing by friends and relatives, we sent the drawings and prototype to the factory to create a mold. The guns will be produced from ABS plastic (the eco friendly kind) and look similar to the guns used in our videos. 

Darts. We tested a lot of different darts, and have included the one that performed the best. You can also shoot Nerf N-Strike darts in our guns, but we think you'll be much happier with the performance of our darts (and our gun). 

Setting our Sights. Here is the timeline we are working from to make sure we deliver on target.

October: Factory produces mold from drawings. 

November: Mold is finished, testing and tweaks completed. 

December: Final mold approved. Production of guns begins.

January: Guns are shipped. You amaze your friends with the power and accuracy of your new foam dart gun, enjoy interactive play with friends and family, and the tide turns in favor of the humans in Human vs. Zombie games at colleges across the nation.


The Hit Men (and Women)

Say hello to our team!

Zac Poulter. Owner of XAX deSIGN and constant creator in the Poulter household. Zac is responsible for the design and creation of the guns, as well as the dream to get them produced.

Becky Poulter. The left brain half of the Zac and Becky team. Becky crunches the numbers, writes the copy, communicates with the backers, and keeps the rest of the team organized to make sure we deliver what we've promised.

Zac & Becky

Brooklyn Poulter. Recent BYU graduate in Music/Dance/Theater, and provider of music, lyrics & vocals for "Shootin' in the Dark" featured in the opening video. With all the buzz about an impending Zombie Apocalypse, we thought it would be fun to make a Zombie music video. So we commissioned Brooklyn (who recently released an album on iTunes) to write a song for it. Her first response was, "Dad, I hate Zombies. I don't think I can write a song about that." A little while later, she jumped up and went running into the music room yelling, "It's coming!" and Shootin' in the Dark was born. 

Normandy Poulter. Sophomore in BYU's Illustration program. Keeping things in the family, we commissioned Normandy to illustrate Shootin' in the Dark. We hope you have as much fun watching as we did putting it together.

Hawkes & Sicily Poulter, Rigo & McKenna Yturriaga. Enthusiastic product testers and fulfillment specialists. Need we say more? Your support will mean lots of good, hard work for them – stuffing, labeling, and shipping your Zombie Control Kits 

Loren & Tina Spendlove. Suppliers, mentors and friends. We are new to this type of project and the support and encouragement from the Spendloves has been more like friends than suppliers. We're just grateful they are both!

Risks and challenges

Pulling the Trigger 
The biggest risk for us on the project was deciding to go for it and produce the mold! We knew we would have to come up with funds for that before we could launch our campaign, and it was a little scary to make the first move. But we have had so much fun with the guns, we decided to jump in with both barrels.

We secured a supplier who has a great working relationship with the factory that is building the mold and producing the guns. If needed, our supplier also has secondary sources.

After the project funds, we'll be having a giant fulfillment party, hiring our children to do menial labor which will help them with funds AND motivation for their future education ;). We also have a fulfillment company standing by in case we are not able to handle everything in a timely way from the home base.

We promise not to leave you "Shooting in the Dark." 
We'll be communicating all along the way. We'll tell you how production is coming and when we expect the shipment to arrive. We'll also post pictures of our late night fulfillment parties, and comments from satisfied customers (that's you!)
