(For safety reasons, the recon light sucks; nerf will not make military grade anything.) I'd say an underbarrel shotgun-like attachment. Heck, you will be pwning the crap out of other Nerfers with a spread shot. Good idea, they could make a small shotgun with a reverse tactical rail on it so that you could put it under a barrel.

If one wants decent spread out of that it just can't be a springer- it'd be so bulky that Nerf would only be able to fit maybe 2 barrels tops, and even then you'd be hard-pressed to fit something like that on a Stryfe. I think that a viable underbarrel shotgun would have to be air-powered, with an electric pump rather than a manual one. (Couldn't be too hard.) It could use the existing Sledgefire shells so that it would be both reasonably compact and have reasonable spread, as well as cutting down tooling costs and increasing the availablility of the shells.

I think rail guards should be a thing too. You know, those things that clip over unused rails to aid in comfort? Holding my Stryfe is a pain due to that darn rail under the barrel. Also Mag-Puls, please.
