Nerf N-Strike Blaster Abbreviation Cheat Sheet

What do all those funny letters and numbers after Nerf blaster names mean? It's a question that's plagued many a Nerfer for years. And now there's finally an answer! To start with, the first 1-3 letters are an abbreviated form of the firing mechanism type. Here is the list of abbreviations.

• 
  
• RV - Electronic Revolving Barrel
• CS - Clip System
• ECS - Electronic Clip System
• EX - External Mechancism
• IX - Internal Mechancism
• REV - Revolving Barrel
• EBF - Electronic Belt Fed
• AS - Air System

The next 1-2 digits are the stock dart capacity. So, if you use my formula, a Nitefinder = Nitefinder- blaster name, EX = External Mechanism and 3= Stock dart capacity. I know some of you will already know this, but I hope that this will help a few of you more inexperienced Nerfers.
