Shooting Range

Even though it has a higher firing rate than the N-Strike series, it can shoot darts at a distance of 90 feet, which is very impressive for a pistol.

Although the effective range of the competing ammunition is greater because of its increased precision, hitting a human at 10 meters with an N-Strike blaster is fairly hit or miss, but these are far more accurate.

Accuracy

As is usually the case, the accuracy of rival rounds exceeds that of N-Strike ammunition. The iron sights and lack of stock are telltale signs that this is a handgun.

When using a spring-powered blaster, one of the drawbacks is that you have to adjust your aim downward every time you prime the weapon. Thus the rate of firing action decreases.
