Nerf N-Strike Elite AccuStrike Series AlphaHawk

Product Information

A nice touch is that Hasbro supplies 10 darts with the AlphaHawk, not five. Normally all you get is enough to load the blaster once. Alpha Trooper CS-18 • Deploy CS-6 • Longshot CS-6 • LongStrike CS-6 • Raider Rapid Fire CS-35 • Rayven CS-18 • Recon CS-6 • Stampede ECS NERF Rival blasters make a great choice for team games, letting you choose your side: red or blue. Start a head-to-head competition fuelled by NERF Rival’s power and precision. And for fans of the Fortnite gaming world, there’s a whole range of NERF Fortnite blasters to take your Fortnite battles from the screen to the playing field. NERF PRO STRYFE X BLASTER: This first-ever Nerf high performance half-length dart blaster for Nerf athletes ages 14 and up has fan-favorite features from the Stryfe blaster and pro-level design elements Some people love swing-out cylinders and some hate them, but they don’t bother me either way. Once you get used to them, that whole reloading process becomes natural. Just press the release button, push the cylinder from the right side so that it swings out on the left, and push your darts into the chambers from the front.

Look at the AlphaHawk as just any other NERF blaster and it doesn’t look terribly good value; it’s just a five-shot springer with a fancy-looking body. It does look really nice, though, and it’s great to hold, as well as being light. The ten AccuStrike darts – which perform so much better than standard NERF darts – do help to level things out a bit, but not quite enough to justify the high RRP.

The AccuStrike Series was originally leaked online, with images of the AlphaHawk and series-specific darts showing up on September 15 and September 20, respectively. The AlphaHawk takes five darts in its revolving cylinder, which is a swing-out design like the one on the ever-popular Elite Strongarm. There’s a button on the left-hand side of the blaster that you press in and then you can push the cylinder out from the other side. I have a real soft spot for the AlphaHawk’s design. It’s like a sniper/target rifle from the future, but with more manageable proportions than a model such as the NERF Mega Centurion. Right, so let’s move on to what’s special about those AccuStrike darts. They have the same tubular foam body, but the rubber tip has been redesigned to have vanes like a turbine. These presumably make the dart spin a little as it flies, helping it achieve greater accuracy.

A tactical rail is located under the bottom of the barrel, where the included bipod is meant to be attached. HIGH VELOCITY BLASTING: Fire as fast as you can pull the trigger! The semi-auto blaster unleashes each half-length dart at a sport-grade velocity of up to 150 feet per second At the very end of this non-barrel is an open sight. There isn’t a corresponding rear sight, but you can use the top accessory rail to align left/right, and elevation is so dependent on the distance to target with NERF darts that sights aren’t that useful anyway.Launch into epic battles with NERF Blasters! Choose your blaster and get ready to fire with Nerf’s aerodynamic foam darts. PREMIUM DESIGN: Built for durability and stamina, to be a tough, reliable equipment essential. The compact size and large grip make it comfortable for use in longer competitions However, I did discover that the AccuStrike darts don’t actually work with all NERFs. I tried them in a Stryfe, HyperFire, Tri-Strike and a Jolt and they worked perfectly. However, they didn’t play nice at all with the Zombie Strike Outbreaker Bow, Doominator or Doomlands Vagabond.

INCLUDES 30 NERF ACCUSTRIKE HALF-LENGTH DARTS FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE BLASTING: The darts deliver extreme accuracy and are durable for repeated use. Designed exclusively for the Nerf Pro Stryfe X blaster and magazine The Grip Blaster has compatibility issues with the RaptorStrike. When it is equipped, curved and/or other clips cannot be inserted. When it is primed, the RaptorStrike becomes restricted to using only smaller-sized clips. The ‘barrel’ is quite unusual, in that it doesn’t make any pretence at being an actual barrel – it’s very wide open at the sides, more like some kind of shroud. This doesn’t make any difference to performance, though, since a proper barrel on a NERF blaster would just add friction, reducing range and power. INCLUDES RECHARGEABLE BATTERY: The motorized Stryfe X blaster includes a removable, rechargeable 11.1V 1000mAh LiPo battery and charging cable. Power up for battle with the great convenience and value of a rechargeable batteryNerf engineers spent two years designing the AccuStrike Series line, focusing on the new dart design and balancing blaster performance to allow for increased accuracy and stability. [1] Talking of accessory rails, there’s that one on the top rear, and a shorter one on the bottom at the very front. Perfectly set up for a scope up top and a bi-pod down below, eh? The AccuStrike Series introduces new AccuStrike Darts that are designed to be more accurate and have less spread than standard Elite Darts. This is proved by comparing several dart designs.
