Quick 16

The Quick 16 is a Nerf blaster that was released in 2011 under the Dart Tag series.

It comes packaged with sixteen Tagger Micro Whistler Darts.

Details
The Quick 16 features an integrated sixteen dart clip, loaded from the left of the blaster. It has no tactical rail and, despite appearances, is not compatible with any existing N-Strike shoulder stocks. The blaster has a single strap point located on the end of its trigger grip.

This blaster's priming mechanism is located under the barrel, and is able to be slam fired at very high rates.

Problems
While some Sonic Micro Darts and X-Shot Excel Darts will work in the Quick 16, Streamline Darts, Micro Darts, and Elite Darts will cause it to frequently jam in the curved part of the internal clip. This is mainly because the retainer inside the clip is specifically designed for Tagger Darts whose heads are wider than their body.

If a dart is jammed, it is usually when loading a dart into the barrel. The back will usually get jammed between the door and the edge of the clip. This will damage the darts and sometimes the only way to get the dart out is to remove the part of the dart above the door, the part that is blocking the dart from loading properly.

Modification
Modification to this blaster is slightly difficult due to the extra plastic on the blaster; this may have been done on purpose by Nerf and Hasbro to keep people from modifying blasters used in the Nerf Dart Tag League.

It utilizes a reverse plunger system, which is disliked by the modding community due to lack of efficiency and performance. However, with some modification, such as air restrictor removal, its firing range can be increased to about forty-five feet (thirteen meters).

Trivia

 * In the instruction manual, "slam fire" is referred to as "rapid fire". The box art also only advertises "rapid fire".
 * Around its initial release, some Nerf fans referred to the Quick 16 as the "Banana Clip Blaster", due to its integrated clip resembling a banana clip.
 * The Quick 16's clip curves in a different direction than the clip system banana clip.
 * Its priming grip and trigger grip are larger than the Raider CS-35's handles.
 * This, the Snapfire 8, and the Stinger are the only three post-2011 Dart Tag blasters that were not re-released with a blue trigger.
 * The Quick 16 can technically hold up to seventeen rounds, if it has a full clip with an additional dart in the chamber, like the Speedload 6.
