The Ricochet is a 2014 Nerf Zombie Strike Vortex blaster. It holds 1 XLR disc. It is the successor of the Proton. The blaster is colored in the orange and green paint scheme of Zombie Strike blasters. It retailed for $7.99.
Description[]
The Ricochet is a small, pocket-sized blaster. It has the Zombie Strike logo embossed onto it and a black trigger. Something that many people may not realize is that the name is self-explanatory, as it is the only Vortex blaster to not spin the disc as it fires. This means that you can Ricochet the disc both ways, hence ricochet.
Internals[]
The Ricochet has very few internals to speak of. It has a firing trigger, catch, catch spring, spring, plunger and disc chamber.
Position in Theme[]
The Ricochet acts as the quick-draw blaster in the line. Due to it being so small, it can also be adapted to a stealth role, as it is able to be concealed in a pocket and taken out quickly.
Blaster Co-relation[]
The Ricochet seems to be the smaller brother of the Ripshot as it resembles the blaster and both blasters load from the muzzle.
Faults[]
The main fault of the Ricochet is its low capacity. You have to reload the blaster every time you fire it. Another main problem with the blaster is its range; it only hits around thirty feet.
How to fire[]
Step 1 - Put an XLR disc in the barrel and push it all the way in.
Step 2 - Pull the slide back. Note that it will not go back in place.
Step 3 - Pull the trigger to fire.
Step 4 - Push back the slide.
