Tek 4

The Tek 4 is a Buzz Bee blaster that was released in 2005 under the Air Blasters series.

The Tek 4 is only available in blaster sets and cannot be purchased separately.

Details
The Tek 4 uses a similar firing mechanism as the Surge 6 and Tek 3. The blaster itself is rather long, which is due to the blaster's plunger system. The priming mechanism on the blaster, although mirroring that of a Nerf Nite Finder EX-3 or an Element EX-6, retracts once primed. It is also only attached by a piece of thin metal. Due to this, the priming mechanism can be twisted 180 degrees without any problems.

History
This blaster was re-released under the Air Blasters line in 2008 with a minor color swap on the cocking mechanism of the blaster. Performance was left unchanged.

This blaster was re-released under the Air Warriors line in 2011.

It was carried over to the Air Zone brand with no changes to name or performance.

Color schemes
The Tek 4 has been released with the following color schemes:


 * Buzz Bee (green, yellow, and orange)

Blaster sets

Trivia

 * The Tek 4 features a hole in the center of its handle. This is possibly to be able to attach some sort of clip or belt hoop to the blaster.
 * The barrels on the blaster feature slits on the side of each, which limits the performance of the blaster. On the inside of the blaster, the plunger tube has a hole in it as well, also limiting potential performance from the blaster.
 * The name Tek 4 would go on to be re-used with later Buzz Bee blasters; international release of the Wizard and Rogue used the name Tek 4.
