TeamNC review (1997 era)
The Nerf CommLink II is nothing more that a simple, single-shot dart blaster with walkie-talkies built into it. The weapon is satisfactory for a dart gun. It has an average range and rate of fire. The CommLink II is one of the few weapons that come with two guns in the same box. The accuracy of the weapon is pretty good. As for the walkie-talkies, they are okay but have a few problems. The problem with the walkie-talkies is that they don't work well at all. They have a lot of static and a very poor range. When ever they are turned on, they admit a static sound which your enemies can hear. Most Nerfers would rather turn them off so their enemies don't hear them. In addition to this, it should be noted that this is a Nerf Cyber Stryke weapon. That means that there is a little clip on the side of the gun to attach the weapon to a belt. However, the weapon weights too much and it will most likely fall off any belt that it is attached to.
Unless you really want a gun with walkie-talkies on it, don't even consider buying this weapon.
