Well, if the original Deploy had looked like that, they would have sold a bazillion of 'em, and they wouldn't be the most reviled blaster in Nerfdom. (Sorry Deploy fans)

Funny story: An old friend gave me a box of Nerf blasters that his kids weren't playing with anymore. There was a Vulcan, a Maverick, and an original yellow Deploy. The Deploy was totally jammed. After disassembling, fixing and reassembling it, the performance was SO bad I just decided to cannibalize the spring and throw the rest of it away. Now I know what the Deploy haters hate.
