I picked up an ICON Magstrike tonight. Don't think I'll get a chance to really look at the clip until tomorrow afternoon. So stay tuned ...

And no, it's not really Nerf war practical. It's hard to control bursts -  which is almost impossible when you're running and gunning. Plan on getting two good bursts. Plus it only comes with one clip. One big bulky clip. So carrying a spare is problematic on multiple levels.

But the real problem in my opinion is priming. It takes 20 to 30 pumps to fully recharge the tank/bladder. And the Magstrike has a fairly long priming stroke, so it's more difficult to recharge it fast. Your opponents are sure to hear you and attack at the most inconvenient times.

I'll let you know if the ICON version is any different.
