Lookit, I've had my Regulator for about a week now, and I've already started making a list of things I'm not wild about. First, the barrel extensions (of which there are three in all) are quite wobbly from side to side. I think the main problem is the barrel connector on the main blaster itself. The extensions themselves seem to lock together pretty well. Bottom line, darts can often come in contact with the barrel wall when moving suddenly or wheeling around, resulting in duds. Not liking that much.

Secondly, the burst mode does not cut out when the trigger is released. In other words, when you pull the trigger in burst mode, even momentarily, the blaster fires three darts. There's no way to stop it. In a perfect world, the blaster would fire as long as the trigger is pulled. If you were to let go, one would assume the blaster would stop firing. That's not the case in burst mode. It always fires three darts. Design flaw, um yeah.

The barrel extension that incorporates the carry handle serves no useful purpose IMHO. The concept of carrying it Rambo style is in direct conflict with the sight lining up with the hole in the handle. So, um, exactly how are we supposed to carry the Regulator ? Hold it like a rifle with a stupid handle sticking out the top, or at waist level like a machine gun with a useless scope mounted on it ? I'm confused.

Hasbro, please text me. Yur blaster is a hot mess.
