TeamNC review (1994 era)
The Nerf Razorbeast (a.k.a. the Razorback) is one of the largest Nerf weapons ever made. The weapon was originally called the Nerf Razorback. However, this offended the University of Arkansas (their school mascot is the Razorback), so Hasbro was forced to change the gun's name to the Razorbeast. The weapon is very similar to its counterpart, the Chainblazer. The main advantage of the Razorbeast is that it initially holds fifteen darts, while the Chainblazer only initially holds eight. The problem with the weapon is that "bigger is not always better." The weapon has less range, a poorer rate of fire, and poorer accuracy when compared to the Chainblazer. In addition to this, the weapon is more bulky had harder to handle. It is also a right-handed weapon, as its crank is located on the right side of the gun.
Don't buy this gun. Get the Chainblazer or RotoTrack instead.
