Weapon Review:
 
The Nerf® RatchetBlast is a slight improvement over its counterpart, the Nerf® Rattler. Hasbro® made two improvements on the RatchetBlast to make it better than the Rattler. First, Hasbro® added a trigger to the gun instead of using a lever. This makes the weapon able to be steadied when firing. This leads to an improvement in accuracy. Second, Hasbro® added a shield around the handle of the weapon.

The only minor problem with the gun is the awkward cocking mechanism. The weapon must be bent in the middle to cock it.

If you were a fan of the Rattler, you'll like the RachetBlast even better.
