Megalodon Nerf N-Strike Mega Toy Blaster with 20 Official Nerf Mega Whistler Darts

Product Information

Among the Mega series blasters, the highest capacity blaster is the Mastodon, with 24. However, it also had a giant plastic shell and a price tag to match. The Megalodon thinks a bit smaller, while still fitting 20 darts into the cylinder, and is far more manageable because of it.

Below the priming handle, there are front and rear sights for a classic iron sight lineup. There are no tactical rails, but given the design of this particular blaster, there is also no space to attach any! The Megalodon is easy to load and fun to shoot. It has a spring-powered firing system, with darts firing at a rate of up to 85 FPS, which is pretty good for a Mega Blaster. The Megalodon was fairly consistent, spitting out Mega darts at 58fps. That doesn’t sound like a big deal – in terms of speed alone, it’s not much. However, these are Mega darts. They weigh more, so even lesser speeds equals a decent amount of energy. Not to mention that Mega darts like to sail pretty far (as well as pretty far off target). If you have Accustrike Megas, this would be a fun platform to try them on. Final Thoughts Yes, the average FPS was a bit embarrassing, well below several other MEGA blasters, especially when using slam-fire, but it is designed to fire from the hip, so the range was never going to be a priority.They can be used indoors, but they provide you with less restrictions if used outside, hence the perfect summer hobby.

Priming and firing require some practice to master. The priming stroke is smooth but long. Children with smaller hands may find it challenging at first. This goes hand-in-hand with the previous category. They should be easy enough to carry by the person that is intended to use it, without causing any pain or feeling awkward. Features

In terms of performance, the Megalodon is a powerful machine. However, compared to other blasters in the Mega series, it falls slightly short in firing range and velocity. Noise: Moderate to loud. The firing noise levels are similar to other spring-powered Nerf blasters. The whistling darts add to the intimidation factor. The plunger tube is short and wide, measuring around 1.5″ in diameter (I did not take an exact measurement). It is, however, tapered at first, with a small hole for bleeding air/accelerating the plunger head. So only the last third of the plunger tube is actually useful for accelerating the dart. As a result, spring upgrades can only do so much by themselves. Performance There are a few guidelines and things to consider when purchasing a Nerf toy gun, so let’s take a look. Age
