It was re-released again with an orange, white, and gray color scheme; this re-release was shown off at the 2014 New York Toy Fair and was later released as the Elite XD variant. Even in bright-light conditions, battlers are ready to take on the competition with this compact blaster. It advertises a firing range of up to ninety feet in the US (compared to the original Elite version's seventy-five feet), or twenty-seven meters (compared to the original Elite version's twenty meters). I didn't cut the plunger head off though, opened the spring up and worked it around till it came off. This mod is a mod I have done twice before, and this third time it turned out better than ever before.

There is also a Double Your Darts value pack, as well as an Australian Target-exclusive twin-blaster pack. Remove the AR backplate, and pound out the three support struts using a flathead screwdriver and mallet. This blaster is punching harder, due to less dead space, so I would put ranges at 80-85 feet flat with elites, with an occasional 90. All in all, the Firestrike is a great single shot pistol, and definitely worthy of replacing the aging and popular Nitefinder EX-3.Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centres that host Etsy. In Summary, the Nerf Firestrike blaster is a great addition to any Nerf arsenal, offering accuracy, ease of use, and a cool light beam targeting system that adds a tactical edge to your foam dart battles.

Wrap the plunger head in tape of your choice, I used plumber's teflon tape, but I have used electrical tape in the past, and it works fine.Most shots fly relatively straight, so you have a decent chance of hitting a human sized target at 10m. It is possible to push the Firestrike's range over 130ft with some good mods and ridiculous springs. As I have used one of these need guns before I just own that the boy and his friends will have hours of fun shooting each other.
