Thanks. A great, balanced review. Kids love gimmicks like these rotating barrels and lever action. It does look like a unique and fun blaster. I think that like most of the standard Nerf blasters, these are gojng to be used indoors or in confined gardens, where the 60+ foot range is more than adequate. I just wish that like you, more Nerf reviewers were a little more balanced in their views. Many of them forget that the (mainly adult, performance oriented) hobbyists are just a small part of the overall user base, and foam flinging is really meant to be a fun game for anyone. Keep up the good work.
I adore the aesthetics of this line, the ideas behind these blasters and even their execution to a degree. I as well was genuinely excited when these announced. But it seems another case of what engineers have told me time and time again, simpler is better, and there's soo much going on here, going in to mod performance is really, really a daunting task, and throw on top of that the patented difficulty in modding smart AR blasters...it's a rare case of too intimidated to even consider it. A shame as this thing is the epitome of what NERF should go for, with a bit more performance of course. I can say kid me would be over the moon seeing this, even if they couldn't heft this beast.
When i saw and played with this blaster for the first time i constantly tried to use the flip grip. :) I´m a big fan of lever action blasters but this one is not my favorit. :) Again, a cool video.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who did that. 😂 It’s not my favorite lever action blaster either, but the fun factor is there for the kids; so i give it a pass.

The gimmicks actually worked!
