Thanks for stopping by!  I had some more time, so I took the Nerf N-Strike Retaliator and Rampage out for some additional testing.  I wanted to look at performance depending on using original streamlines vs. Elite, original Nerf N-strike blasters vs. Elite, and so on.  I decided to just make one gigantic video, but have no fear!  The link to each pertinent section follows.  And yeah, I kept the Retaliator barrel on for its firing.  I’ll do another vid without it soon, but in the meantime:

Handy dandy timing break down for the video-

• Rampage w/Elite darts and 12 round magazine – 1:33

• Rampage w/original streamlines and 12 round mag – 2:09 

• Nerf Raider w/12 round mag and original streamlines – 2:51 

• Nerf Rampage w/12 round mag and Firefly Tech darts – 3:02 

• Nerf Dart Tag Quick 16 w/Dart tag darts – 3:23 

• Nerf Clear Recon (stock) w/Elite darts and 6 round magazine: 3:46

• Nerf Elite Retaliator w/6 round mag, Elite darts – 4:21 

• Retaliator w/18 round magazine (Nerf Stampede’s), Elite darts – 4:36

• Nerf Elite Retaliator w/35 round drum mag and Elite darts – 4:51

There’s still more to do, such as checking the ranges and accuracy without the barrel (personally, I like the looks so I kept it on) and a general opinion on the Elite line.  But, that’s another blog post.  As for today, enjoy seeing what the blasters shoot like 🙂

Now that the video is done, I’ll be updating this post in a few minutes with pictures as well.  Stay tuned!
