Though this is not a unique accessory since the Sweet Revenge also comes with a holster but this is the first on the \u201cboys\u201d side of Nerf. The Sidestrike also comes with 6 darts which can be stored in both the blaster and on the holster.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">The Sidestrike has good range with shots landing between 40-50 feet but it does feel a bit awkward in an adult hand. This would not be your main weapon in a fight, so it really shouldn\u2019t be an issue if you have larger hands. As for the holster I tried clipping it on my pocket and it didn\u2019t grasp as well as it could; placing it on your belt gets a more secure fit. The good thing about the holster is that it can be used on either the left or right side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Calibri;\">Aside from the small grip on the blaster I did like the Sidestrike. The range as well as the holster make this a must buy. The Zombie Strike Sidestrike retails for $14.99. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-9616 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/?attachment_id=9646'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IMG_5614-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/?attachment_id=9647'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IMG_5616-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-9647\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-9647'>\n\t\t\t\tSidestrike Blaster and Holster\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/?attachment_id=9648'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/geekstronomy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IMG_5618-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-9648\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-9648'>\n\t\t\t\tClip on the holster\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have to say that I really like the release schedule for Nerf guns.
