Because the Recon MKII only comes with a CS-6, but the Recon CQ comes with a huge CS-12. And a generous supply of 6 more genuine Elite darts. For those who are bad a math, that's almost twice as many. Isn't that worth at least 20 bucks? *chokes back sarcasm*

I think it's important to remind our readers that both these so-called "Recons" are really just Retaliator repaints with a brand new barrel extension. A super short barrel extension. And a really awesome new shoulder stock. Wait, what ? Oh sorry, a crummy super short shoulder stock. So yeah.

Look, I love the color scheme and the larger clip is a big plus. But I've never been a Retaliator fanboy, and I was disappointed with my original MKII. I can't imagine I'd feel any different about the CQ. The fact that it's twice as expensive is a total bummer.
