Nerf N-Strike Firestrike Firing Trigger Replacement

Introduction

This guide will walk you through opening your Nerf N-Strike Firestrike and removing the firing trigger. Many screws must be removed before opening the casing so be careful not to misplace any.

After the casing is removed and the Nerf gun is opened, you will see two triggers near the lower portion of the gun. The larger of the two triggers is the firing trigger and this is what you will be removing. Just grab it from the side with two fingers and pull straight up to remove the firing trigger.
