Well, the StrongArm wasn't my "first" blaster, but it was my first pistol. So there, we're back on topic !

I did the Speed Load Mod on my StrongArm this afternoon, and um evening. Yeah, I guess it took longer than I thought. Oh well. But it works great. And it's true, you can throw 6 rounds in 'er in under 2 seconds. I was skeptical about removing so much material from the barrel stanchion, but it turns out the connector to the priming mech is what really holds it in place (the hexagonal orange gear in the center).

It just takes a little while to figure out how much material to remove, and how to get everything filed down so that the action is smooth. And you need a little hot glue to hold everything in place.

It just pains me to see an impotent StrongArm, sacrificed for the greater cause. There's a special place for blasters like that. It's called my "Box o' Nerf Stuff" ;-)
