Included contents[]
- 1 Ball Blaster
- 4 Ballistic Balls
Details[]
The Ball Blaster is a pump-action ball blaster that is very similar to the Reactor. Unlike the Reactor, however, it has a forward handle on the pump mechanism.
History[]
The Ball Blaster is one of the few blasters released between the years 1999 and 2001, alongside other blasters like the Striker Slingshot, Gyro Strike, and Arrow Strike.
As it was not released within a series, it is generally considered to be a part of the Power Nerf series, the current series at the time. Despite this, it was never actually part of an official series. It apparently sold enough to be listed as a "Perennial Best-Seller" in 2000.[2]
Modification[]
As the Ball Blaster does not have a trigger or the ability to fire darts, modification is extremely limited like most other ball blasters. While it is possible that small modifications such as air restrictor removals can be completed, potential range increase is rather small due to the overall nature of the blaster. Although it has not been completed on a ball blaster, it is possible to rebarrel the very similar Reactor.[3] This is likely to be as far one can take a Ball Blaster when modifying.
