Details

The Magnus has a tethering point on the lower-part of the handle and a tactical rail on the bottom of the blaster. The blaster has a textured grip. It is internally fed similarly to the Vigilon or the Speedload 6; it holds up to three Mega Darts in total.

    The official Magnus commercial.

    It is possible to shoot the Magnus with an Elite Dart inside a Mega Dart, but it will reduce range. When

fired with an Elite Dart inside a Mega Dart, the Elite Dart will come out just enough for users to manually pull it out.

  • This is the only N-Strike Elite 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.
  • To use the Magnus as a single shot, muzzle loader - prime it, then a dart can be inserted into the barrel without reloading the internal magazine for a quick shot.
