#Nerf alpha strike review series

Darts are easy to load, retention is good, and there were no mechanical issues during my time with the blaster. Cylinder rotation is smooth, trigger has a little unexpected friction that creates more noise than I normally expect in a Nerf product but nothing that impedes function. The priming action is smooth with a reasonable draw weight. The Hammerstorm has an 8-dart capacity in a cylinder similar to the Hammershot. After testing it out for a couple days I find it confusing and irksome in unexpected ways: The two reviews I found were generally positive in comparing it to the Hammershot and the price was reasonable so I ordered one from Target. I have found it frustrating to see availability of Hammershots decreasing but was pleasantly surprised when a new successor to the blaster appeared online. It is fun to use, feels great in the (adult size) hand, and performs flawlessly. The ability to use it one-handed is essential as a back-up to a 'main' blaster with higher capacity and rate of fire. I am a huge fan of the Hammershot and have believed that it is the only reasonable choice for a spring-powered pistol-class blaster. Unofficial Nerf Fandom Wiki Page (Not affiliated with r/Nerf)

#Nerf alpha strike review series

While Alpha Strike was intended to be a 'budget' series of Nerf blasters, many have pointed out that other companies such as Buzz Bee and X-Shot make blasters of similar price and plastic quality, often with higher performance.Then, if you still have questions, refer to the subreddit NERF FAQ's + WIKI PAGE. The plastic has also been reported to be lighter and lower quality than other Nerf blasters. Most blasters are assembled with plastic tabs no screws are used externally in order to reduce cost. The series has also been criticized for its build quality. Later releases changed this design to be solid black, in order to make it more comfortable. Initially, Alpha Strike blasters featured skeletonized grips, which were criticized for being uncomfortable. It was later found on shelves in stores in Hong Kong, and subsequently on British toy websites. The Alpha Strike series was leaked online in January of 2019. All of the blasters in this series have been designed to have extremely simple operation, with a limited number of moving parts. Alpha Strike blasters with accessories such as scopes and shoulder stocks are integrated into the shell and cannot be removed. Unlike other series, most Alpha Strike blasters do not feature any sort of accessory attachment points, such as tactical rails, stock attachment points, or barrel extension points. The Alpha Strike series features products intended to be sold inexpensively in order to make Nerf accessible to everyone.
