A hammer-action priming system, coupled with the break-open design is what makes the Tricera a unique Nerf gun. It has a 3 shot capacity with a single fire mode of delivery which slows down the rate of fire, however, the stock will increase the stability and shot consistency of the gun. The overall size is average and well balanced, therefore, it works well in close corridor conditions.
One sling point location can be found on the bottom of the grip that would accommodate a single point sling attachment accessory. However, there are no tactical rails present on the gun, therefore, accessory options are very limited.
There are only a few Nerf guns that use the break-open design and the Tricera-Blast is one of them. Pull the front portion of the gun down to access the stacked barrels and initiate the reloading process. Put a single dart into each one of the barrels and than return the front of the gun to its original configuration.
Additionally, the gun has enough storage built into the stock to hold up to 12 extra rounds. Using this feature will increase the reload speed.
The Tricera-Blast uses a break-open design that when initiated will drop the front part of the Nerf gun down and allow access to the 3 stacked barrels. Once the darts have been loaded, return the front of the gun to its original configuration and pull the priming hammer down. The gun will now fire a single round and although there are 3 barrels it only has one mode of delivery, single fire. Therefore, it does have a lowered rate of fire rating.
Dinosquad Nerf guns are compatible with all N-Strike ammunition, although, they will come packaged with Elite style darts which have been modified in color. Elite ammo is widely circulated and will hold up well under normal conditions.
Additionally, the Tricera has built into the shoulder stock a 12 round storage system that has a 6/6 split design to each side. Utilizing this design feature will increase reload speeds.
