The LMTD Needler is a motorized Nerf gun that’s fed by a 10 round rotating cylinder and driven by an automated delivery system. It’s larger in size with a touch of bulkiness, however, a single handed application is still a viable approach. It does have an automatic mode of fire, although, the rate of fire is very low and considered below average for an automatic blaster.
Furthermore, this is a responsive Nerf gun that will react to the touch. To initiate the Needler simply pick it up when it’s in fire mode. It will illuminate the needles along with other parts of the gun and fire rounds.
The Halo Needler has no tactical rails or sling point locations and that’s all I’m going to say about that.
Reloading The Halo LMTD Needler: Front Load Blaster
The Needler uses an open face rotating cylinder that has a 10 round capacity. The cylinder is loaded from the front of the Nerf gun, however, there’s an additional step needed to make the process easier. A portion of the frame on the left side of the gun will hinge out allowing for better access and reload speed. In addition to this the drum will need to be manually rotated to reach all 10 slots.
As it was mentioned in the “Tactical Features” section this is a responsive Nerf gun. To operate the LMTD Needler switch the gun into fire mode and pick it up. It will respond through a sensor in the grip and illuminate giving a visual response that the gun is now ready to fire. Moreover, the needles will light up in correlation to whether or not the blaster is full of ammo. Suppress and hold down the trigger to fire rounds.
The Needler comes packaged with 10 Elite Nerf darts which is just enough ammo to fully load the gun. The darts are a custom color in order to replicate the needles fired in the Halo video game, however, it is not necessary that you use them. Moreover, the gun is compatible with all Elite darts.
