When writing a review, please be as thorough as possible.  You must include the following categories in your review, and they must contain a justification for the rating.  1 is bad, 10 is good.

  • Introduction - This must have the full name of the gun and manufacturer, type, purpose, price, etc.
  • Accuracy - Use your best judgment, provide scientific results and rate it 1-10
  • Performance - Speed, size of clip, number of bullets ,rate of fire, etc. Rate it 1-10
  • Mod-ability - How easy is this thing to mod. Rate it 1-10
  • Conclusion - Wrap it up and give us a total score. Average of the 3 scores.

The closer you follow these rules the better a chance you have of having your post make the front page.

I think you should also make the final score out of 10 also.  If you use your final score by adding all of the categories, stuff like price can negatively effect the overall score, and while price is important, it should be more of a side note.  Also I think Accuracy can be moved into performance, or perhaps have the performance category as a something like this:
Performance:(make sure to note if these are stock, or modified results)
-Accuracy: blah blah blah
-Range/distance: include max distance, and effective range (how far away you can hit someone from).  Only FLAT ranges.  Speed can vary from mod to mod.
-Rate of Fire: How many darts it can hold at one time, a RF20 would be 20, a NF would be one, not 3 (if ammo holders were counted), how easy it is to reload.

That Accesability feature is pointless. You can include what you use the gun or in the introduction. Sam has a point, the price shouldn't be rated.

Price/how easy it is to get a hold of should be a part of it, but it should not affect the overall rating.  I don't see why this is important:
Usability: includes comfort, size, what it is considered (ie sidearm, primary, or secondary)
