Zombie Strike Hammershot Blaster (Amazon Exclusive)

Bought and used by adult. Pros : -Lightest prime and trigger I've seen in a Nerf gun besides a Jolt, makes it easy to use one-handed as an adult and I have no doubt a child would be able to use it with no problem at all. -Solid build. -Relatively low power, makes it safer to use indoors casually compared to some of the more advanced offerings (still, use common sense and don't aim it at fragile things, like screens). -Handle size fits my adult hand nicely. -Relatively small and lightweight. -Barrelless mechanism looks like it may help prevent jamming problems long term. -The hammer prime is very cool to use and is sure to make anyone in touch with their inner child smile regardless of age, specially if you fan it. -The hammer prime makes for a nice fidget toy. -Nice to be able to get these brand new at Amazon while they're sold out at retail and scalped in other online store fronts. Cons : -Kinda expensive compared to similar offerings with equal or better performance and form factors, you're essentially paying extra for both the hammer gimmick and the rarity of the item itself. -While mine was new, it came in generic brown cardboard packaging (with Hasbro branding), not the classic retail one. Also, the paint application was very shoddy in several places, almost like it was a production line reject or something. Again, since these are exclusively produced for Amazon, both of these may be due to cost-saving measures, who knows. I didn't mind either that much (you could even argue the paint job adds to the "rugged" feel the design has going on) and neither would a kid for sure, but it's worth mentioning for collectors or other people that may care about such things, I also didn't see it mentioned on the description or other reviews. -You only get 5 darts, so if you lose one, you're already out of a full mag. Thankfully full length darts are inexpensive and easy to get even at your local stores, and they will likely perform just as good if not better than the stock ones.

A great pistol and i would say as good as or better than other cylinder pistols, despite having a round less than the standard strongarm. Lets get style points out of the way, this thing looks great and the weight feels solid and reliable and those together make it a pleasure just to hold and look at. Shooting is strong and accurate, and the hammer pull is so fun. To my knowledge this is one of about 3 hammer action blasters so its a novel but still exceptionally functional priming mechanism. You can even fan the hammer as the gun supports slam fire, meaning if you hold down the trigger and fan the hammer the cylinder will cycle and fire very rapidly. overall a well designed and reliable dart gun and beautiful to boot plus its the same price as most other nerf elite pistols so all lose is one round of cylinder capacity in exchange for the freedom to fire your sidearm one handed, which to my mind is the point of a side arm, is well worth it. Tons of 3rd party mods exist for this and all trigger components are compatible with the lawbringer nerf rifle though the cylinder is not. On a personal side note this gun seems most to resemble the gun from bladerunner and likely could easily be modified cosmetically to mirror that gun more closely. That gun. It was actually also in fallout new vegas and was called "That Gun." There are so many options here for cosplay its not even funny.

This is a great toy for young teens and even adults around the house enjoy it plenty. Unlike most other nerf guns that have odd cocking mechanisms this one is quite natural and like a real revolver. It loads easy, it's 100% reliable unlike a Rev-5 Spectre I have sitting around (the Rev-5 misses a tick and jams if you barely bump the cylinder or cock it too hard/soft, have to baby the cylinder to keep it reliable) and it's more accurate. Good power though not as much as the Rev-5, you can feel it when this hits your skin and through a T-shirt still. If you hold up a paper towel this will punch a hole clean through it and keep flying at 10ft. There are no magazines to fumble around and lose, you just put in the darts and go. Sadly this only comes with 5 darts. The little one I bought this for lost a dart within 10 minutes and now runs around missing one in the gun, so buy spares. This will work with normal N-Strike Elite darts. Also, what kicks this into 5-star territory for sure is the price. Currently $12 on Amazon Prime or $15 at a local walmart, buy two of these and have one in each hand. Again, this isn't just for kids. As soon as someone drags one of these Hammershot's out us guys put up a blanket on the couch and shoot at the pattern spots as an impromptu gun range. Everyone needs one of these.

As the headline clearly states, I don't understand the dislike for this gun. I know many people prefer the slide-action of the strongarm, disrupter and even the older maverick, but a personal preference doesn't always mirror a general rule. Since I clearly like this pistol, here are the features I could find. Aesthetics To be honest, I really don't know. I mean, it's a nicely done paint job (as always), but it's not like I'm head over heels trying to paint my other guns the same pattern. Since we sometimes play in my friends wooded property, I do sometimes wish it was a darker color. That aside, it's cool, and its good for indoor playing when camouflage doesn't matter. Performance When I got it, it wa hitting pretty good ranges. As time went on, of course, it progressily got weaker. However, it remedied with an upgrade spring which I don't remember the name of and probably installed wrong. Nevertheless, it now performs better and shoots farther than before. Comfort For me, pretty good. I've heard some people complain about the gap between the handle, but I've not had a problem with it. The upgrade spring I slapped (literally) in there requires a lot of power to draw back, and the handle in no way hinders that function. I actually found the gap useful; stopping my middle finger when it slides up and allowing me to get a firm hold on the hammer. Opinion For a secondary, this gets a thumbs up. With the upgrade spring it has been a little hard to pull back (leading to some deadths) but it does do its job. Although some people hate and some people love on this gun, its really a sidearm for those who want to dual-wield or use one hand. Within that spectrum, I find it useful.

It’s spinnable. It’s moddable. It’s affordable and most of all, ONE HAND OPERABLE!!! Hands down the best revolver Nerf has ever had in my opinion, and arguably one of the best blasters in nerf’s recent years. Dual wielding has never been easier as these blasters are one hand operable, thanks to a hammer prime rather than a slide, like the disruptor. Mods out there for it too to increase its power and capacity (+2 round cylinders). Accuracy and velocity is pretty decent among its fellow N-strike Elite blasters. Of course accuracy sucks with Elite darts, but as soon as you throw Dart Zone waffle tips or Ekind Waffle tips in there, nothing flies better. And being at an affordable price, I can whole-heartedly recommend this blaster. Please do not bother with that alpha strike garbage they’re coming out with. Spend the money on a good blaster, this is still affordable enough and a great blaster.

The Hammershot, and it's various reskins, are among the greatest NERF guns on the market. They shoot far and true, seldom jam, and *can be used one handed*. The hammer really does let you keep your aim and keep something else (might a recommend a second Hammershot) in your other hand while battling. I'd say "the kids love it" but somehow these keep ending up in my hands. :)

Review of a 13 year old this nerf blaster is a very good side arm and weapon in general. However mine came a little scuffed up And some paint looked like it had dripped on part of the orange. It works like new but it would be nice if the paint had not been sloppy. Also it looks like a white hair had been painted on the handle lol what are the chances. As well there is what looks like a scratch on one of the fake screws it may be a tiny crack maybe not. Worth saying though. Pros: Good accuracy, looks nice, love the hammer action, very good price, nice that it has a tactical rail on top, lots of oomph behind darts, sling attachment point, good size, cons Mine came a little bit scuffed up, slightly sloppy paint, and the ridge between the handle and the hammer is annoying. All in all very very nice blaster would recommend.

This blaster is not one of the longest-running Zombie Strike blasters for nothing. It is pretty much a direct descendant of the Strongarm/Maverick style of blaster, with its revolving front-loading cylinder and its low, reasonable price. However, where the Strongarm has a six-dart capacity, the Hammershot sacrifices one of those darts for a different priming system. Instead of the usual slide mechanism, this blaster uses a hammer-cocking mechanism, styled after Old West six-shooters. This allows you to fire the blaster one-handed, which comes in very handy in a Nerf battle. I have relatively small fingers for my height (six-foot male, 3 inch index fingers), and I have no problem priming the blaster with one hand. A very small child may need to use both hands. It's a good blaster for beginners, and is a very popular secondary pistol among longtime Nerfers. I am very fond of this blaster and would highly recommend it.

Kids happy

I've got a lot of nerf blasters and this is the one I use the most. The best feature is being able to cock the gun and shoot it with one hand. Lets you dual weild. Oh yeah! I also love the minimalist design. It's easy to load. Clips are fine but once you run out of amo they take forever to reload. No batteries to have to charge. And the motorized guns are loud so no sneak attacks. It shoots just as for as guns 3 times the size, and better then some of those. The only downside is I wish it had a few more rail for accessories. There is just one on the top. I ended up modding my gun slightly so I can mount a 'real' laser scope on the bottom.

Hat sich sehn gefreut ....hat alles super geklappt

its good for a nerf war the reloading the shooting and the range

Ok
