| Category | Score | Notes |
| Firing range | 7/10 | The Magstrike has a wide range of fire, firing anywhere from twenty to forty feet straight. |
| Accuracy | 8/10 | The Magstrike is not particularly accurate. However, because of the blaster's high rate of fire, the chances of hitting a target is greatly increased. |
| Reliability | 8/10 | This Nerf blaster is unable to jam. The only problem with the blaster is with how its clip works. As the blaster is fired, the clip raises out of the blaster and occasionally may fall back in, skipping shots and wasting air on already empty chambers, however adding duct tape to the side of the clips will give them a snug grip inside the blaster, which will help prevent it from sliding back in. Only one clip comes with the blaster, and in general, it is hard to store spare clips due to their size. |
| Rate of fire | 10/10 | The Magstrike has the highest rate of fire of any Nerf blaster, firing at about eight to ten darts per second. |
| Capacity | 10/10 | The Magstrike holds ten darts in its included clip. |
| Final score | ||
| 8.6/10 | The Magstrike is an all around great Nerf blaster. The blaster works best at short to medium ranges, and like all high rate of fire Nerf blasters, the Magstrike is an excellent ambush and position holding weapon. One problem is it runs out of ammo too quickly and is hard to reload. The blaster is also quite affordable at around 20.00 USD. The biggest problem with this blaster, however, is the unreliable mechanics of its clip, and the fact that additional clips cannot be bought without re-purchasing the blaster or directly contacting Nerf. | |
Trivia
Edit
- For the best accuracy, it is recommended to use the air tank as a shoulder stock.
- It has a tactical rail on top of the blaster, but it is rather pointless, as the clip will block the view of a tactical scope or light beam unit. It may be great for the tactical ammunition storage so that the blaster can be reloaded on the fly.
- On box it looks like it comes packaged with Sonic Micro Darts, but it comes with Whistler Darts.
- This is the third biggest air system blaster, behind the Titan AS-V.1 and the Rapid Fire AS-20.
- The Magstrike is not recommended for younger people, as it requires a bit of arm strength to use properly.
