Troubleshooting
- Blaster not firing: Ensure the trigger lock is disengaged and the blaster is fully primed (slide moved back and forward completely). Check for jammed rounds as described in the Maintenance section.
- Rounds not firing with full velocity: Ensure only official Nerf Rival rounds are used. Check for any obstructions in the barrel or loading area.
- Difficulty priming: Ensure the slide moves freely without obstruction. If resistance is felt, check for foreign objects or damage.
