The Rampage is better, it's an Elite Series blaster and is designed to achieve longer stock ranges (along with having the slam-fire feature and a 25-dart drum magazine).
Its a minor trade-off, due to how Nerf packages the new Elite blaster models... if users really need a shoulder stock, they can just easily attach on the compatible shoulder stocks that come with other N-Strike blasters anyways.
Hi sgnerf, I have a few questions 1. Can nerf praxis slamfire? 2. When is the hailfire refill set arriving in singapore? 3. Is nerf going to produce more nerf n-strike blasters or n-strike elite blasters? 4. When you fire an elite dart and vortex disc, does it swerve due to a small breeze or wind? I appreciate alot if you reply Thanks sgnerf ;D
1. The Praxis cannot slam-fire... although some users post videos online which mimic that effect by timing their priming action and trigger pulls in sync (which can also be done with any other blaster), its not real slam-fire (which requires the trigger to be held down throughout the entire slam-fire process).
2. No news on the release or availability of the Hail-Fire Refill Set in Singapore yet.
3. There will always be more new blaster models and accessories being released, just keep a lookout for news of them being announced online and popping up in retail stores.
4. Yes, foam darts and vortex discs will tend to swerve in flight in windy conditions. Note that the type and condition of the foam darts also affect how much they swerve.
In addition, vortex discs naturally curve in flight due to the way they spin (even when not in windy conditions), its called the "magnus effect" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_effect).
The normal Barrel Break versions were recently re-stocked a few months ago at Toys R Us stores in Singapore (those re-stocked versions are also packaged with an additional tactical light). Just shop around to find them.
Hi, I would like to get a vortex vigilon. Is there a difference in the sonic series vs a "non-sonic series" vigilon? Also understand that vigilon can only load 5 discs at 1 go, are there any accessories that I can get to load more ammo at one time? Thanks
From my tests, they both seem to be the same, only the casing color is different.
The Vigilon is designed to only carry 5 discs in its integrated "clip" section, but its possible to add another disc in it to make it carry 6 discs instead. Just load the 6th disc in, then prime it... so there would be 1 "ready" in the chamber, with 5 in the clip.
As for accessories to increase its ammo capacity, i've not seen any of such items (unless you DIY mod it), 'cos it uses an integrated fixed clip system.
Hi, Just wondering if you have tried sanding or abrading the tops of your vortex discs to achieve greater lift/distance? I did to some of mine and it made a difference in range. Just curious.
Hello SG nerf, do you know if there is a way to get the Alpha Trooper in Singapore? Many thanks.

DeleteThey are sold out locally, so you'll have to order them in from online or buy from overseas.

ReplyDeleteJconrad,
DeleteI've not seen that mod before... perhaps you could write up a guide on how it's done and post a link to it for reference. :)
