Nerf Halo MA40 Technical Features: Real Game Interfacing
The Halo MA40 is a magazine fed Nerf gun that has a 10 round capacity. This gun offers a semi-automatic mode of delivery that’s capable of achieving higher rates of cycle speed and consistency. It has a decent ergonomic feel, although I found the front portion of the gun to stand out due to the custom tactical milling on the grip. Moreover, the gun has an average mobility rating when taking all features into consideration.
Furthermore, the MA40 uses a thumbhole stock which allows for magazine placement, although, the fit is on the tighter end of the spectrum. The mag release makes for a smooth transition but it will take some getting used to.
The MA40 does not offer any sling point attachment locations. I would have like to have seen at least two on the stock, however, the gun is not designed this way in the game either.
There is one tactical rail located on top of the MA40 that’s usable, although, you will need the raiser attachment if you choose to place a scope on it. This will lift the scope high enough to clear the front tactical shroud. Furthermore, the MA40 comes with a shot counter accessory which is very recognizable from the game, however, it’s designed as a prop and will serve no other function than to look good.
The MA40 has a unique mag well location that’s only found on a handful of guns within the Nerf families. The mag well is built into the shoulder stock which alters the location from a trigger guard forward position to the back of the Nerf gun. Moreover, if you’re not familiar with this sort of setup it may feel abnormal at first, however, it can prove to be an asset.
Reloading the MA40 is no different than any other magazine fed Nerf gun. Push the mag release button found on the back of the stock and pull down on the clip. Slap in a fresh mag and get back to work. Furthermore, this gun is compatible with all N-Strike magazines, with the exception of drum mags.
The MA40 is a motorized Nerf gun that’s driven by an internal acceleration system. To operate the gun, suppress the button just below the trigger guard to initiate the acceleration trigger. While holding the button down, pull the live trigger to cycle a round. Furthermore, this gun will support a higher rate of fire so long as the batteries are fresh.
