Nerf Longshot CS-6

Introduction: Not very useful like the Raider or Recon. But good enough. Its something like a cross between a shotgun and sniper. It is quite bulky and old fashioned but it is still stylish. Unreasonably heavy for some reason, but all snipers are supposed to decrease mobility. Its also proven in Nerf, Counter-Strike and PS2 Delta Force Black Hawk Dawn Team Sabre.It is the only gun which is a 2-in-1 combo. The extension pistol is virtually useless, sure it can shoot, but it is fragile and most people's just break in the box. Like mine and a few others. The Longshot uses a direct plunger system. It uses the yellow version clips(which I have not seen any to be sold separately. The tip's of those streamlines from the special clips are light beige in color instead of being orange like the normal ones).The stock can also store 1 extra clip. The stock is not removable but it can be  locked and unlocked in a position. Unlike the Raider, the stock only has 1 range and it is best to use it extended for whatever age. Uses a bolt for a primer. It also comes with a sight which is no more effective than a hollow tube with plain plastic lenses with a few markings with a permanent marker, which it really is. Main gun can go up to 50 feet. Extension pistol can go up to 10 feet only. It is the 2nd longest blaster(1st is Longstrike)

Overall size: 23.5 inches(60cm) in length(stock unextended), 27 inches(67 cm)(stock extended) . 8 inches(22cm) in height. 5 inches(13cm) in width.
Extension pistol is: 14 inches(35cm) in length, 5 inches(13cm) in height, 3 inches(7cm) in width.

How to use: For fast shooting, I suggest you extend the stock and rest it on your lower chest(above your stomach). Then just keep your writing hand on the trigger. The other hand is to stabilize the gun by gripping at the bolt. Then yank back and forward non-stop. But make sure that you do not do it to fast or the bolt might not be able to be pulled back. When this occurs, simply release the trigger and wait for a second before firing again. For holding it while running or any movement, I suggest that you keep your finger off the trigger.
For precise shooting(a.k.a. sniping), you should keep your finger at the trigger at all times. To shoot, press the stock to your shoulder(just right above the armpit area). And after every shot, use your trigger hand to prime it. Main purpose of this is to make sure that you do not move the gun to much.

Darts: Streamlines only,  it is able to use damaged darts as well. But if the dart is bent, straighten the darts before use. It is the worst dart shredder of all the CS guns.

Tactical attachments: It comes with a useless scope which doesn't do much.

My opinion: Not bad. Though it jams frequently. Good heavy gun.

P.S. Never leave a gun primed. Halfway or not. When the clip can be inserted inside, meaning the gun is still primed. To check, look at a bar just behind the tactical rail-handle. If its red, that means it is primed.
