Nerf Longstrike

Lonstrike has come to take Longshot's place. However, we can clearly see that some Nerfers still preferring the Longshot. Why? Because Longshot can be modded and shoot up to 100 ft. Longstrike can't. Of course Longstrike can be modded, but it will never shoot as far as Longshot.


Shooting System


Longstrike uses the Nerf Clip System which is very simple to use. However, the clip system uses only Streamline darts which aren´t accurate. So... Im trying to understand: Why does a blaster designed for sniping was made to support only Streamline darts?
I think Streamline darts were made just for range, because they go very far. But a sniper don´t need range if the range will finish with the accuracy.
The Longstrike uses a spring powered reverse-plunger mechanism. This spring powered reverse-plunger system is similar to the Raider and Recon system.

For shooting this blaster, pull the pin back, load the clip and push the pin back. Finally, you are ready to shoot. The clip which comes with the Longstrike holds 6 darts, but you can buy extra clips at toy stores. Here is a short video of how to load the Nerf Longstrike:





Size and Design



Longstrike has a very realistic design which is very similar to a sniper rifle. It's the biggest Nerf blaster ever and it´s perfect for big guys. However, for little guys, this blaster is very big, and doesn't seems to fits correctly on their hands.
Longstrike colors are blue, orange and yellow. Those colors are great, because they are perfect for camouflage. The design of this blaster is really awesome!

Longstrike looks evil!


In the Box

This blaster comes packaged with 6 streamline darts and 1 Nerf clip. It comes separated in 3 parts:

Barrel: responsable for improving the accuracy.
Main Blaster: responsable for shooting the darts.

Nerf Magstrike

The Nerf Magstrike is an air powered blaster which deserves respect. Do you know why does it deserves respect? No? I'll tell you. Because this blaster can shoot 5 darts per second or 300 darts per minute.That is a good reason for your enemies be scared if you are holding a Magstrike.
What makes the Magstrike unique is: you can shoot in a fully automatic sequence without using batteries, just pump it and shoot.


Shooting System

For shooting this blaster, 15 ~ 20 pumps are needed. However, its very simple to pump it. After the pumping action, just pull the trigger and Magstrike will do the work.
After testing it, the average range I got was 13 meters and I can confirm that Magstrike has a good accuracy.
The shooting mechanism is based on compressing air into its storage chamber (looks like a paintball gun chamber) via a pump handle. Magstrikes performance depends on how you pump it.


Size and Design

This blaster doesn´t looks like a real gun. However, it has a futuristic design which is very beautiful. It has 3 colors. Blue, red and the famous N-Strike model, the yellow one. It isn´t very big, but it fits correctly in all kind of hands.


In the Box

Nerf Magstrike comes packaged with 10 micro sucker darts and the removable clip. In the beginning, this blaster was a Dart Tag blaster and it had 2 colors: red and blue.

Dual Wielding

This blaster is very simple to hold, even in one hand. A good way to win a war, is buying 2 Magstrikes. Just pump them, and then, hold one in each hand. If you shoot this at your enemy, you will take him down before he can even shoot at you. You will be sending 20 darts in 2 seconds direct to your opponents face.

This blaster is a good present for christmas and it costs $45.00 on Amazon and here is the link:

Nerf Barrel Break

The Nerf Barrel Break is a new Nerf gun wich looks very similar to a mini shotgun. It´s a very cool blaster and it fits very well in my hand.

Shooting System

This blaster can shoot 2 darts at the same time or just 1 dart depending on how you pull the trigger.
For shooting this blaster you need to switch the button on the side to unlock the barrel. After the barrel is opened, you should insert the darts into the opened barrels and the blaster is ready to fire. As I already said, this blaster can shoot one dart at a time or both at the same time.
The average range i got was 11 meters, more than the Longstrike.

Size and Design

The blaster is very cool and realy looks like a mini shotgun, but the blaster is so small. So I think the blaster would be so much beautiful if Nerf made it bigger. This blaster only has one color, yellow. However, the yellow is the best color for blasters. Can you imagine a blue Barrel Break? It would be cool.




In the Box

It comes packaged with 10 whistler darts and an ammo holder that can hold up to 8 darts. It comes only in one part.

Nerf Barricade

The Nerf Barricade is a new semi-automatic blaster wich holds 10 darts. This blaster works with any kind of Nerf Darts excluding Streamline darts. It has only one color, the yellow one which is the traditional color of N-Strike blasters. I decided to buy this blasters, because when you have 2 of them, and you hold one in each hand, you can finish evebody.
The average range I got was 15 meters! That´s fantastic for a small blaster like this one. I think that what makes this blaster more powerfull are the spinnig flywheels, but those spinnig flywheels don´t work very well with low battery.


Shooting System

The shooting system of this blaster is very simple, you just need to press the on button and the blaster will start making some noise.
This blaster works with two sppining flywheels which have the function of throw the dart in a very high speed. When you press the trigger a small white piece of plastic inside of the blaster will push the dart to the spinnig flywheels and then, those spinnig flywheels will do the job. It works with 3 AAA batteries.

                            




Size and Design

The design of this blaster is very cool and when you use the stock of Recon on the back of Barricade, the blaster looks more powerfull. It doesn´t looks like a real gun, but it has a very beautiful design and it supports the Recon and the Raider shoulders stocks.


Futuristic Design!




In the Box
This blaster costs $19,99 on Amazon.com, here is the link. It comes packaged with 10 whistler darts and no batteries included.



Dual Wielding

Ahh... Two Barricades are PERFECT for a war, because they aren´t so heavy and one in each hand would let you with a big firepower. They aren´t so expensive, so I recommend two of them!
