Magstrike Nerf Gun

The Nerf Magstrike is a ten round automatic Nerf gun.

The Magstrike is different from most other modern Nerf guns, in that rather than using a spring plunger mechanism like the Nite Finder or Raider, you have to prime the gun by pumping the handle to shoot. In the past, priming a Nerf gun was a bit of a pain because it slowed down the rate of fire, but thanks to the Magstrike’s clip system, you can just swap out a pre-loaded  clip instead of having to reload rounds one at a time. A clip holds 10 darts and can be unloaded in about 1.5 seconds, which is really impressive to behold and makes the priming totally worthwhile.

Fully priming the Magstrike requires roughly 20 pumps, which you can easily do in 10 seconds. Once primed, you can unload the entire clip in rapid succession by holding down the trigger. The range on the Magstrike is great considering the rate of fire –  each dart will shoot about 20 feet.

Of course, you *can* prime the Magstrike more than 20 times, but if you do so routinely, you can put undue pressure of the air bladder and it will get stretched out. This will result in a very noticeable drop in performance, so don’t go crazy with the priming — you get diminishing returns very quickly after 20 pumps anyway.

As with many of the pump primed Nerf guns made these days, the pump will break if you’re rough with it. However, if you stick to controlled and steady pumps, your Magstrike should have a long life.

Ultimately, I would recommend the Magstrike to anybody who is looking for a portable Nerf gun with a high rate of fire.

If you’re considering buying this for a younger kid (under 10 years old), I’d recommend a gun that doesn’t need as much priming like the Nerf Raider. However, for the rest of you, you can’t go wrong with the Magstrike.

I have the Magstrike AS-10 and it kicks ass. You don’t even have to fire them all at once. You can fire out five, pump it another few times, and fire again.

chris bruce August 2, 2009 at 2:29 pm

I got this gun for christmas and I love it. although you have to pump it alot it is one great weapon.

Dylan August 6, 2009 at 4:09 pm

Da Pope August 20, 2009 at 1:23 pm

in the new nerf commercial, what are those guns the guys are using in dart tag that look like a .357? and what was that 1 the guy had who said Nerf, and cocked his gun?

Vincent Wong August 22, 2009 at 4:05 pm

is it hard to pump it, because if it is, i wont get it. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

sean August 25, 2009 at 4:55 pm

love this gun because i am a huge fan of machine guns and because if you hold down the triger and pump it shoots single shot as well as the normal 10
also it has an easy mod just cut out the holes in the back of the clip where the air goes through and it shoots an extra 25 feet

awesssssssoooooommmmmmeeee September 2, 2009 at 12:38 pm

ihave this piece of crap the magazines never work properly,accuracy isn’t bad but range is terrible. i also have the full auto 20. that is superior to the Magstrike because there’s no changing mags and a higher rate of fire

Vincent Wong September 5, 2009 at 12:53 pm

it is awesome. i dont know what you are talking about.

nerfguy September 23, 2009 at 2:41 am

i dont know waht your talking about.

The Thing October 4, 2009 at 6:42 am

Mani November 1, 2009 at 5:06 am

Hey the magstrike looks very good i love the way that its automatic but i would rather get the rapid fire 20

Robert November 1, 2009 at 6:23 pm

I got this gun for my birthday and it broke within the first 30 minutes of use!!! How sad is that?

Anthony November 8, 2009 at 8:36 pm

i dont know if anyone is here but i think its very confusing to load infasis on the (i think) because i dont have one plus i dont know where to find 2 mavericks 2 chest plates that have the rough stuff where you have to buy the special darts and the glasses 2 to be exact

nerf warrior November 20, 2009 at 7:39 am

well i want the raider and longshot for christmas

jason November 25, 2009 at 1:32 pm

if you get this i sugest geting more than 2 magazines cause then you have to go and pick up he bullets every 20 seconds

javan November 29, 2009 at 8:24 pm

This is an awesome gun it fires fairly far and accurate and has a great firing rate

Jacst3r December 2, 2009 at 3:45 am

How much is this gun???

Javan December 6, 2009 at 2:04 pm

its about 15-20$, or at least mine was, they dont tell you but you can also make this gun single fire by pumping a bit then firing, so onor pump it fully then fire onc. or three times or whatever… its up to you.

Jacst3r December 8, 2009 at 4:43 am

Thanks Javan

nick December 11, 2009 at 9:59 pm

i wish you could put the longshot scope on the old super-accurate 50 ft range guns

George January 4, 2010 at 7:57 pm

what 50 ft. guns are u talking about nick? I have older brothers who give me guns from the times that nerf guns started!

***** January 5, 2010 at 6:11 pm

I found this in a Goodwill, and as far as I can tell, it looks pretty solid. Only one problem, though; no clip, and Hasbro doesn’t sell ‘em separate, which sucks. No full-auto for me….

Timothy Bower January 12, 2010 at 3:46 pm

I dont no what u r talking about….Accuracy is good FOR A FULLY AUTOMATIC GUN………..range is the best about this gun , usually fully auto guns such as the Vulcan ebf-25 goes about 10 feet (crappy range) but the magstrike goes probably 15-20 feet out. and i got 2 complaints about this gun….1.They dont sell magstrike clips….which sucks because now they sell N-strike magstrikes that come with only 1 clip…..2.Its not made well…like the pump.

Timothy Bower January 12, 2010 at 4:54 pm

and im really sorry about those peoples magstrikes that have been broken. sorry for double posting

jason January 16, 2010 at 7:08 pm

hey guys if your lucky you can find some more clips on ebay i don’t have this gun but i have rarley seen them on ebay but ther kindof expensive but still if your looking for some more clips go there

samboyay January 18, 2010 at 3:11 am

Sould I ask for this gun because it seems kinda cool

jason January 21, 2010 at 4:12 pm

yeah you should

bobo January 25, 2010 at 8:25 pm

hey samboyay im the coment bellow you again

lol

noah February 15, 2010 at 6:22 pm

this one is good but it has a few flaws in the accuracy

the js 123 March 8, 2010 at 12:48 pm

I like this better than the rapid fire 20…
