Arrrgh ! I hate being the only one on this thread !

News flash: The Regulator jams a lot. At least mine jams a lot. Lookit, I'm not a noob that pulls the rev switch at the same time as the trigger. I know how to fire a friggin'  flywheel blaster. That being said, I've ruined several dozen darts in my new Regulator. A personal best.

Problem #1. There's a sensor. In single fire mode, the conveyor will continue to run until the sensor detects a dart has been fired. I've pulled the trigger and listened to the conveyor run for 5 or 6 seconds with no shot. And the dart inside is all chewed to shreds. Epic  fail   Nerf !

Problem #2. Once burst mode is initiated, god himself can't stop the process. The Regulator is going to fire three shots whether your finger is on the trigger, or there's batteries in the blaster. Okay, that last part might not be true. But the Regulator is adamant about firing exactly three darts. One at your target, one at the floor, and another at the ceiling tiles. Bring extra ammo.

Problem #3. The barrel extension thing is really starting to bother me. I'm a clever guy with unlimited resources. How the heck are normal people supposed to deal with this level of incompetence ? Look Hasbro, you made it wrong. You had one job. One job.

Just say no to the Regulator. Even if it invites you to its hotel room with promises of big darts. Just say no.
