Considering it’s a rifle, the AlphaHawk is very light, but in a good way – even the littlest kids could carry it around all day. It feels very comfortable in the hands, too, with a grip that’s a decent size and shape for just about everyone, and a nicely shaped foregrip for your steadying hand. 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. 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 AccuStrike Series later was given a release under the N-Strike Mega series, with the Thunderhawk and the Mega AccuStrike Darts. It would also be released under the ULTRA series in 2021, with the AccuStrike ULTRA Dart, although there have so far been no dedicated ULTRA blasters released under the AccuStrike Series. Nerf 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]
Nerf Guns, or Nerf Blasters, are toy dart gun products owned by Hasbro that fire ammunition such as darts, discs, or balls constructed from foam. The first Nerf Blaster, the Nerf Blast-A-Ball, was released in 1989. 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? CAUTION: Do not aim at eyes or face. TO AVOID INJURY: Use only darts designed for this product. Do not modify darts or dart blaster. 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.Pull the trigger and an AccuStrike dart flies out straight and true. What sets the AccuStrike ammo apart from standard NERF darts is that they do that consistently. You can actually group shots just inches apart from 20ft away, and with much less chance of a random ‘flyer’. They’re a big improvement on the standard darts – although still not quite as accurate as the golf-ball-shaped NERF Rival rounds, and with a less flat trajectory.
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. Get ready to battle with the Nerf AccuStrike Series AlphaHawk blaster! Load 5 darts into the drum and slide the bolt to prime the blaster for firing. Sight under controlled conditions at a target 30 feet (9 meters) away and pull the trigger to fire 1 of the most accurate Nerf darts. Prime and fire again to launch another dart.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. Let me start off by saying AWESOME! This Nerf sniper rifle looks cool, shoots accurately, and shoots far! I personally like the iron sights on this better than any other Nerf gun I've looked down before. I'm going to list pros and cons below. Had the N-Strike Mega series not become it own series, it would have been the second sub-series of a sub-series. The first was the Code Red Collection, which was a sub-series of Rebelle Secrets & Spies. 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.
Great Deal
