TeamNC review (1999 era)
The Nerf Triple Strike is an excellent combination of firepower and range. The weapon is the first to introduce the new Screamin' arrows. It is capable of firing three arrows at the same time, all over forty feet. If the trigger is pulled back slowly, the arrows will fire one at a time (each time the trigger moves a third of the distance). The weapon also has good accuracy to back up its excellent fire power.The main problem with the Triple Strike is its incredibly poor rate of fire. It takes approximately thirty pumps to prime the weapon to its full potential. Also, the weapon tends to leak air if the trigger is half-pulled back.
If you are looking for a fast-assault arrow weapon, the Triple Strike is the gun to buy.
