Nerf Alpha Trooper Update


Now that my Alpha Trooper is 5 months old, I'm doing a short updated review.

  • The overall range of the gun is now spasmodic- instead of consistently reaching 35 feet or more it now varies between shots that fall out of the barrel, 20 and 35 feet shots. This could possibly be changed somewhat by the use of older bullets
  • After firing, the pump handle can lock in the firing position, and will only move when either pulled with reasonable force or after you hit the gun against something hard
This gun originally got 9/10 stars, but it now gets 8. The performance has certainly reduced, but it still sits alongside the Raider and Maverick as my favourite Nerf gun.

  1. spasmodic ?

    Interesting
    Its a shame that these great guns (and bullets) depreciate
