Nerf ThunderHawk Tactical Information

Tactical Features

THUNDERHAWK TACTICAL FEATURES

The ThunderHawk is a single fire Nerf gun that uses a bolt-action primer and is fed by a 10 round integrated slide magazine. This gun has a unique feature that allows it to expand and collapse, changing the configuration. Furthermore, it has longer cycle time and this is due to the size of the Nerf gun, although, it will not shy away from an increased rates of fire.

The shoulder stock and bi-pod are there to keep the ThunderHawk steady and alleviate any stability issues, however, the bi-pod may hinder mobility. Furthermore, this trade off will need to be considered in how it will effect your personal play style.

Sling Points & Tactical Rails

THUNDERHAWK SLING POINTS & TACTICAL RAILS

There are two usable sling points located on the back of the stock that will prove to be useful by increasing mobility and shot consistency. The main tactical rail is located on top of the ThunderHawk and will accommodate any style of N-Strike accessories, preferably a scope.

Loading & Reloading

THE THUNDERHAWK HAS A UNIQUE FEED SYSTEM

The ThunderHawk uses an integrated slide magazine that has a 10 round load capacity. The mag is capable of feeding in either direction and will accommodate a left or right hand dominate user. It has a front load design which allows darts to be loaded directly into the front of the magazine. Furthermore, this feature will impact the reload speed.

The magazine is not removable and is a design feature that will need to be taken into consideration. There is no question it will add a unique touch, however, it will leave you with no option for additional magazines. Additional ammo will need to be stored in a different way.

Operation

BOLT-ACTION NERF GUNS HAVE LOW RATES OF FIRE

The ThunderHawk is not a hard Nerf gun to operate. Fill the magazine and make sure to slide it all the way to one side, left or right makes no difference, it’s personal preference. Pull the bolt-action primer back towards the stock and than return it to the forward position. This will cycle the Nerf gun one time and put it in the ready position. Pull the trigger to fire a single round.

The ThunderHawk is an interesting gun to cycle and this has to do with the design layout. Much of what you’re working with is on the back end of the gun near the stock as seen in the picture. Moreover, this will affect shot consistency during faster cycle speeds.

Ammo & Capactiy

THIS BLASTER USES MEGA ACCUSTRIKE NERF DARTS

This gun is compatible with two types of Nerf darts, Mega and Mega AccuStrike. Testing has been done on a number of occasions and there are plenty of videos that show there is a proven performance variation between the two. Furthermore, there’s a design difference that can be seen mainly in the dart tips. Regular Mega darts have a rounded tip, whereas the AccuStrike darts have a squared off head.
