The Red Strike Longshot released in 2009 as a part of a Black Friday deal at Walmart stores. It has been re-released five times, starting in 2007 with a new, yellow color scheme this version of the Longshot notably only came packaged with one clip, rather than two.

When battle conditions could change at a moment's notice, the N-Strike Longshot CS-6 blaster gives kids the flexibility to be ready for anything! CAUTION: Do not aim at eyes or face. The extension blaster easily detaches from the bolt-action blaster barrel, allowing for quick reconfiguration. Kids can steady their shots with the folding bipod and check their aim with the targeting scope.

Take on targets from a distance or in the heart of the action with this 2-in-1 blaster! The Longshot CS-6 blaster is composed of a bolt-action blaster and a slide-action extension blaster. It advertises a firing range of up to thirty-five feet (10.6 meters). It is believed that there is a difference in the breech between the two versions, resulting in a failure of the original Longshot to fire Elite Darts and allowing the newer version to do otherwise. This is not the case for the later, yellow variant of the Longshot. While most N-Strike blasters can fire Elite Darts, the original version of the Longshot has difficulty firing them without modifications. Two strap points are built into the blaster, one above the muzzle and one against the back of the carry handle. The blaster's jam door is located under the carry handle, which can be slid open to provide an access point for jams when the blaster is half-primed. The folding legs allow the blaster to be used against a flat surface, which can be helpful when the blaster is at its full length. The Longshot also features a carry handle with a tactical rail built atop it, a set of folding bipod legs, and an integrated shoulder stock that can be extended out, to additionally make the blaster longer. This is due to the included front blaster, which connects to the Longshot with the use of its barrel extension attachment point. The Longshot CS-6 is a bolt-action clip-fed blaster advertised as a "2-in-1 blaster".
