Nerf N-Strike Elite Stockade Review/Tatics

Nerf N-Strike Elite Stockade Review/Tactics

Nice to be back after a long Christmas break and I have brought the Nerf N-Strike Elite Stockade. It is just like a barricade with better motors. (Pictured above, jam door open.)

Features:
  • Jam Door
  • Stock attachment (holds ten darts)
  • Tactical Rail
  • Ten dart revolving cylinder
  • Semi-auto
  • Trigger
Now for the Statistics.

Range-8/10: Even not comparable to a +bow or a longshot (no longer sold D-: ) it is beating recon ranges and is comparable to a modded nite finder. When firing with intervals less than 1/2 seconds, the ranges would decrease to 30 ft.
Rate of fire-9/10: Just depends how fast you can pull the trigger! When Done right, you could achieve modded stampede. It is best to leave a 1/2-1 second interval in between shots for maximum range
Reliability-7/10: This Gun Accepts Elite Darts, Streamlines and Whistlers (Both Types) In change of accepting elites and streamlines really well, You can not use suction darts and taggers. Reloading is awkward  because you would have to open the jam door and pull the trigger to twist the barrel without the fear of breaking your nerf stockade
Accuracy-7/10: Should Be able to hit targets fairly  easily from 15 feet away but due to the short barrel, you will have a little trouble trying to shoot form 25 feet away using older darts (whistlers and streamlines) but it will not be a problem with the newer elite darts (Also depends on charging of motors. See The Ranges Section for charging.).
Capacity: 9/10 Counting the stock's capacity (10 Darts) this gun would be good to go with 20 darts in total.
Overall: A nice replacement for your barricade with a couple of extra cool features and upgrades. I would prefer this over a barricade on every day of a week that ends with a "y".
Video Review and unboxing is below:

Usage and tatics:

  • If you have any 14500 size 3.6v batteries, you can put two of them into your stockade with a dummy battery and you basically have your gun modded.
  • Do Not try to shoot taggers or suctions.
  • Dual Wielding this gun would be a good idea so when one gun is charging, the other is shooting so you can increase the ROF and the distance at the same time.
  • Although this has the stats of a primary weapon, get something more expensive (Rampage, Longshot, Vulcan) as a primary... Well, unless you don't have the money (you can still ask someone else!)
  • Do Not Sneak with this because the motors are pretty noisy unless if you are causing a distraction with this only.
  • The Iron Sight is quick to use and is very accurate for a maximum of 40 feet. However, Do not snipe due to the fact the barrel is very short.

Just an update

Sorry for leaving for so long... I have been catching up on homework (due to the fact I'm only 12.) I will be getting either the retaliator or the stockade when I get to go to toys r us. I might be reviewing the alpha trooper within 1 week. See you soon and Merry X-Mas!
