Recon barrel extension

The Recon barrel extensions is a Nerf barrel extension that was released in 2008 under the N-Strike series.

It comes packaged with the Recon CS-6 and the Retaliator. The Retaliator version also comes packaged with the Stryfe CS-18 Mission Kit. Both variants cannot be purchased separately.

Details
The Recon barrel extension is a medium-length barrel extension. It features a flip-up sight above its muzzle, as well as two tactical rails, one above and one underneath the extension.

It is recommended to attach aiming accessories to the upper rail of the barrel extension rather than the priming slide of the blaster as any accessory attached to the slide gets in the ways of reloading the blaster.

The Recon barrel extension will wobble slightly on the Recon CS-6. Ways of countering this include using a grip accessory or by holding the clip-load area to steady the blaster.

History
The Recon barrel extension was re-released in 2012 with the Recon's successor, the N-Strike Elite Retaliator. This version of the extension has clockwise rifling on its inner barrel.
