The trilogy is easily one of the most innovative blasters of the years in my opinion. We haven't had any blaster that took shells since 2013's nerf sledgefire. And the sledge never ejected its shells. But the trilogy has that capability, making a way faster reload and in my opinion, more efficient than the sledgefire. And also, it comes with 5 shells instead of 3, making it worth the money. Also, I opened it up and the plunger tube is way bigger than the sledgefire, making this blaster shoot hard even with all three darts in the shell. Also, the groupings are amazingly tight. I did a test using both elite darts and Chinese AccuFakes and the AccuFakes had a stupid tight grouping, while the elite darts had a really wide grouping. So it is pretty consistent depending on what darts you use. Super cool and I really love this thing.

But every good thing does have its flaws. I'm gonna say something coop would say and here it is: the grip is small. It's really kind of uncomfortable to use and since my hands are quite large. Now, again, I'm a teen so I shouldn't really be talking about that because it's meant for kids, but come on, older people use them too! Also another thing that I saw opening it up, the access door spring is not very durable, making it bend too much and damaging it. So my acces door won't open on the prime. Also, it has weird prime because the pump grip has to be all the way back before you can push it forward. So that little extra push at the back is essential and in a battle scenario, can be quite hard to focus on the prime. And lastly, shells. Just shells. Sure they're cool and all, but really now, I don't like reload like that. They're really fun to use and to watch your blaster eject the shell out is really cool. But it takes focus to put the shell in and if it doesn't go in correctly, the shell will sort of jam up in the door.

So that's my opinion with the trilogy and I think that if you are just a kid having fun in your basement, then I'd totally buy it, but for HVZ players, that's a big no....
