| Gear Up Raider CS-35 | ||
|---|---|---|
| Medium blaster | ||
| Category | Score | Notes |
| Firing range | 8/10 | When slam fired, it has an average range of twenty-five to thirty feet. However, when not slam fired, it can reach lengths of thirty-five to forty-five feet unless bad darts are used. |
| Accuracy | 8/10 | It has average accuracy for a clip system blaster. Accuracy may be slightly decreased when using the drum, because the weight and position of the drum moves the blaster's center of gravity out to the side; this makes it harder to hold level and aim accurately. |
| Reliability | 7/10 | It doesn't usually jam unless bad darts are used or if it has been loaded past its full capacity. It may start to jam if darts are misplaced. Constantly slam firing the Raider causes darts to be easily chewed up. The Raider is much more reliable in single-fire mode. |
| Rate of fire | 10/10 | This blaster can shoot very quickly. It generally shoots about three darts per second when slam firing. However, this rate is decreased when jams are taken into account while slam firing extremely fast. |
| Capacity | 10/10 | This blaster has the largest capacity of any N-Strike blaster, holding thirty-five darts in its included drum. It can hold an extra dart in its handle, totaling the blaster's capacity at thirty-six darts. |
| Final score | ||
| 8.7/10 | The Raider CS-35 is considered to be an excellent blaster; the Gear Up version of the Raider works about the same as the original. While it is slightly expensive, it's worth it. There are so many positive aspects to the Raider and it is a highly recommended blaster. | |
Trivia
Edit
- For some strange reason, some parts in the drum are misaligned, causing a need for minor adjustments in order to put darts in it.
- While the stock ammunition type for this blaster is the Streamline Dart, the stock photo shows it with Whistler Darts.
