We need to make this happen. We just do. I can't express how much I agree with you. I couldn't have said it better. Thought of something better than the Magnus as a basis for the underbarrel... the Sledgefire. Proper Masterkey >.< Or, it could fire a Ballistic Ball as a form of Nerf M203. Huh... I think that would be pretty cool dude, but I'd imagine that's more for an assault rifle or something. It might work though... Also, I just came up with an idea a few minutes ago. Maybe we could take out the underbarrel blaster and turn the Elite Longshot into a Nerf CheyTac Intervention? Kinda like what I do to my Longshot for nerf wars (see avatar image) except it would be a more streamline design. I dunno, what do you guys think? (Note: Somehow, I have a feeling that you're all going to yell at me for suggesting to take out the underbarrel blaster. ^^;) The way the underbarrel is on the Longshot I can see why you took it off and used the Longstrike (?) one instead. I do think, however, that they should make the Elite Longshot be to the Centurion what the original was to a Longstrike. On the underbarrel front, maybe we have been going about things all wrong. Maybe the rifle should shoot megas and the underbarrel should be based on the Stryfe or the Strongarm or something. Thoughts? Yup, that's the Longstrike barrel. (Good observation! Sorry, the picture kinda sucks.)

I'm not sure if it should fire mega darts or not, although it would make it seem more high caliber, I guess. (Maybe that's why the Centurion fires them?) I'm not sure whether the mega darts or elite darts are more aerodynamic than the other, so I'll try to look into that. The reason is that I think we want this to be a very long range weapon, but correct me if I'm wrong here. For the underbarrel, I don't a clip system underbarrel would make much sense, since the main blaster is already a clip system. However, a revolver would be pretty cool. My only problem is the space it would take up. Normally, nerf revolvers have large cylinders, so I'm worried that the bipod won't be put high enough for the revolver to fit underneath. But if we make the bipod too high, going prone and shooting people will be as annoying as hell, since the blaster is effectively pointing at the sky and you can't see people when looking through the scope. Typically what I do with the front barrel of the Longshot anyway is attach it to an assault rifle type nerf gun and use it as an underbarrel shotgun. A revolver sounds awesome, though. Maybe we just need to cut down on how many darts fit in the cylinder. Maybe 3 - 5 darts?
