 The user interacts with the product by using the cocking mechanism to load the gun, pulling the trigger to activate the gun, and reloading the gun by means of attaching the drum to the gun. Due to the fact that the gun is marketed as a toy, the gun is fairly easy to use and understand, so that a child could know what to do and be physically able to do all of the steps necessary to use the gun. There is no maintenance required of for the gun because it is made of plastic and it would be counter-intuitive to require maintenance on a Nerf gun.

 *Product Alternative Profile
 There are many different types of Nerf guns to choose from. You can get one that shoot discs or darts, one that is automatic or one that non-automatic. The advantage is a customer has options of what they can buy based on price ranges and performance. The disadvantage is that some Nerf guns are more expensive because some are made with more complex parts, such as a motor for an electric firing gun.

 *Development Profile
-Our product was developed in the beginning of the year 2012. With prices increasing during the time this gun was developed, this gun had to be a cheap but fun Nerf toy for children to play with. This was a major economical concern for the Nerf company. People would need to spend more of their money on food and gas so they are less likely to buy an expensive toy.
+Our product was developed in the beginning of the year 2012. With prices increasing during the time this gun was developed, this gun had to be a cheap but fun Nerf toy for children to play with. This was a major economical concern for the Nerf company. People would need to spend more of their money on food and gas so they are less likely to buy an expensive toy. Global concerns for the Nerf gun have been similar throughout the years. It has to be made to look like a child's toy so it cannot be mistaken for real guns. This gun is sold in North America and the UK. The toy is intended to be a cheap and safe toy for children ages 8 and up.  The toy rarely breaks so the consumer can use the Nerf gun for many years.
