TeamNC review (1995 era)

The Nerf Iron Raptor has a unique design. The weapon features a pair of folding arms that pop apart and a barrel that thrusts forward when firing. The weapon has decent range and satisfactory accuracy. Although the Iron Raptor appears to be a pocket weapon, it is a little large. This makes the weapon impractical because it is too big to be a primary weapon and too small to be a sidearm. In addition to this problem, the weapon has a rather poor rate of fire.

Although the Iron Raptor looks unique, it isn't worth purchasing.
