For fits and giggles, I decided to go back to that Canadian Tire store and put out $23 CAD for a new DoubleBreach. The handsome shell and low price kept beckoning to me, in spite of my prior awareness that mechanically it was nothing special. Two shots per load, slow ROF, blah blah blah. Part of me was hoping that someday I could integrate this shell with the guts from a Tyrant...



As it turns out, the left side lacks the painted lettering. Also, unlike the Rough Cut and TwinShock, there is no option to choose between firing one or two darts per trigger pull. Only one can fly at a time; no slam-fire either. Lastly, the external dart holder depicted on the left side only keeps four darts at the ready. The remaining two of six darts bundled with the blaster must either be pre-loaded in the breach (with action primed and springs compressed, no depriming 🙄), or stored by the user in a pocket or pouch. To get around this, I would try to look for an aftermarket, 3D-printed Mega dart holder to hook onto the top rail. Say, here or here...

Basically, as-is, this blaster IMHO is really only good for posing or cosplay work. The CycloneShock on sale for $15 CAD at the same location is a better value and also more useful in combat. Same with the $36 TwinShock on sale.
