It’s an excellent entry-point to the toy range and will be more than enough for most people.
Accuracy, affordability, and ease-of-use combine to create the Agility.
If there was a frontman for the range, it’d probably be the Nerf N-Series Agility.
And honestly, I’m not against that.
Then it’s just a case of squeezing the trigger to fire.
Still, it’s not a like-for-like replacement.
A feature that didn’t make the jump was the RD-6’s hammer trigger.
Agility doesn’t share that ability.
However, its absence is understandable because you have to prime before every shot here.
The idea simply wouldn’t work with this blaster’s mechanism.
So far as looks go, this isn’t the smallest or largest blaster from the range.
That bulk means it can be used one handed by older Nerf warriors or with two by younger fighters.
Performance
Looking for a good all-rounder?
The Nerf N-Series Agility occupies an enviable spot in terms of performance, price, and accessibility.
There’s something very satisfying about thekuh-CLICKof the priming mechanism as well.
It sounds much weightier and more complex than it actually is.
Having been hands-on with multiple N-Series blasters now, I can confirm that this seems to be the case.
Want something more suitable for hot weather battles?
Don’t miss our guide to thebest water guns.
The latter isn’t a big deal, but the former gives me pause for thought.
If anyone younger wants to join in, I’d point them towards the Nerf Elite Jr. range too.
It was designed precisely for that reason, so should be a better fit.
Should you buy the Nerf N-Series Agility?
There aren’t many blasters in the N-Series range that strike a better balance than the Agility.
It’s simultaneously accurate and satisfying to use without being as bulky as the Pinpoint or Infinite.
It carries six darts at once so you don’t have to endlessly root around for ammo mid-game.
And it’s aggressively affordable.
What more could you ask for?
Not much, in my experience.
While thereare’better' Nerf blasters out there, this is the best all-rounder I’ve seen.
