Nerf Rival

"High Impact Rounds were made for those who want more pain, they’re tough, versatile, and have the most range on any gun. The only keeping them from being standard issue is that their ammo is not as numerous and more expensive."

The Nerf RIVAL is a series of Nerf ball blasters that was released in fall of 2015. It is designed for Nerfers ages fourteen and up in mind, as it features high-performance, "100 FPS" blasters for "competitive team-based play." The Ammunition type is referred to as High-Impact Rounds, or HIRs, and are designed to do major damage.

Information
Most RIVAL blasters are either magazine-fed or hopper-fed, with notable exceptions such as the Artemis XVII-3000 or the Kronos XVIII-500. RIVAL blasters also feature a tactical rail very different from the standard tactical rail. Each blaster features a mechanical safety that must be disengaged before the blaster's acceleration trigger or firing trigger can be pulled.

All products released under the series are released under two color schemes: red and blue. For an unknown reason, however, newer blasters from 2020have only seen a release in either red and blue. The amount of red and blue blasters announced so far is still equal.

Users
RIVAL is liked by the Ranger Legion and the Elementary Alliance for their weapons power and range which goes unrivaled (get it?) but they are not used as a standard issue weapon due to two reasons: they are often heavy and sometimes even a little clunky which restricts movement, and the second being how rare their ammunition is. Although their price is relatively the same as N-Strike series, these two factors often has RIVAL as a less popular brand than the N-Strike Series, which has the most common ammunution.
