Nerf Regulator- Key Features
Switch fire technology:
Most of the players crave for the Modulus Regulator blaster for its 3-mode firing option. It’s like you get the different flavors in a single cup of cake. For single fire, flip the switch and you can deliver one dart per one trigger shot.
Then turn your trigger for 3 round burst fire where you can shoot several darts per shot. And the third one is full auto with continuous fire. To unleash all the darts at a time this firing mode will help you.

So it will keep your gun steady during the battle and supply you an extra magazine clip. When you are out of darts, you can switch the extra magazine with the blank one.

Though the carry handle is generally situated in the middle of the gun, this handle is a little bit different. You can fix it at the front or back on the tactical rail. Even you can turn the handle 90 degrees to make your grip suitable.
