![]() ![]() Since it only has 5 shots, you need to make them count, so I like to get in close, take a shot, and back off. I personally like to circle my enemies while running and shooting. This gun does have nice accuracy and range, and it is VERY mobile so it's fun to use in combat. I don't see why you should have a problem pulling it back as long as you get used to the mechanic. It is worth noting that I'm a young adult female with smallish hands - and I'm actually quite weak! Additionally, I modded the spring tension in my blaster, which makes it even slightly harder to pull the hammer, and I never had problems in combat situations. I've heard a few complaints about difficulty pulling the hammer back with the thumb, but I've personally not had much trouble, especially after getting used to it. If you are thinking of getting a nerf gun for your 3-year-old, do not buy the Hammershot. It's less bulky than the Strong Arm so it'll be less annoying when not in use. If you are thinking of getting a sidearm, buy the Hammershot. If you like it, buy another so you can dual wield and feel awesome. If you are thinking "I've always wanted to kick butt while dual wielding", buy the Hammershot. In my opinion, if you are looking for a pistol to use as your main weapon, the Hammershot and Strong Arm are the only two you should even bother looking at. If you prefer using 2 hands, I suggest the Strongarm, which has very similar capabilities. If you're looking for a pistol, this is the one I recommend, as long as you like one-handed cocking. I don't have the most experience with nerf blasters (the only others I own are nitefinders and a Maverick - blegh!), but I have shot off a couple of my friends' good quality guns so I'm familiar with the power behind good blasters. If you want a blaster for a younger child, I'd recommend a blaster that primes by pulling on a loop with your other hand, something that has a better grip. Even so, the kids under 7 years old shouldn't make the hammer even budge, and they had a hard time gripping it in one hand, anyway. Now, I did increase the spring tension on my Hammershot, so it's harder to pull back than if you get it straight from the store. Everyone had fun, but a few of the younger kids had issues with my hammershot. At a group Christmas party at a church, I brought all of my blasters for us to have fun with. That being said, I also have new experience in loaning this to kids. And if melee is allowed in your HvZ, a Hammershot with a decent sword is a great combo. But if you're teammed with someone that has a higher-capacity semi or full auto, you can make a good team. Now, if you're completely surrounded by zombies, this may not be the best since it only has 5 shots. I even built up a reputation in the club I'm in at college for being deadly with it. I'm never more accurate in hitting my target than with my Hammershot. It's lightweight, which makes it easy to run with, which is great in any Nerf war. When I'm wielding my Hammershot, I feel completely in control. I've also used friends' blasters for fun. Since my previous review, I have acquired several more blasters. I have been using this blaster for more than a year now.
