TeamNC review (1997 era)

The Nerf Coral Viper is a simple nerf gun designed to look like a viper snake. The weapon has a barrel that pops up to look a snake about to attack, hopefully surprising an opponent. However, this only works once or twice.The Coral Viper has some very substantial problems. It has a very low range and it takes a lot of time to load. The gun also suffers for poor accuracy. Finally, the weapon starts to hurt your hand after a while because of the odd shaped handle.

This weapon isn't worth much more that ten cents. Perhaps that even is an overstatement.
