To reload the Magnus, pull back the priming slide and load in up to three Mega Darts. The darts should be inserted gently and uniformly so as to help reduce jamming. Push the slide forward to finish priming the blaster - also gently, so as to avoid crushing misaligned darts.

  • This is the only N-Strike Mega blaster to have a built-in clip.
  • A chambered dart may fall out of the Magnus if the blaster is swung by the grip with sufficient force.
  • To use the Magnus as a single-shot, muzzle-loaded blaster, prime it, then load a dart from the front into the barrel for a quick shot.
  • It is comparable to the Kronos XVIII-500, due to its similar internal clip.
