TeamNC review (1996 era)
The Nerf Switchfire is a simple pocket weapon. The gun has two barrels that can fire one micro dart at a time. The weapon is easily concealed in one's pocket.Because of its small size, the Switchfire is rather impractical. It has poor range and accuracy because of its rather small size. Also the weapon is flimsy and can break easily.
If you are looking for a good pocket weapon, look somewhere else.
