The good news: The Disruptor is basically a StrongArm 2.0. With the bottom barrel stanchion removed, the three lower chambers are fully exposed making it unnecessary for the barrel to tilt out. It's essentially the same mod I've done to every CycloneShock I've ever owned. Makes perfect sense. It also reduces the overall size and bulk of the blaster.

The handle is actually more comfortable because they've integrated the lanyard loop into the handle, rather than being a separate piece that protrudes from the bottom. Very nice. There's a similar loop on the bottom just ahead of the trigger guard. The action is smooth, the range is exactly the same as a stock SA, and there are also some minor cosmetic differences.

The bad news: It has inherited several of the flaws of the StrongArm. The priming handle mech, as well as the plunger, are the same, which means it's bound to be prone to the same issues many of us have with our SA's. Also in common: the trigger, catch, and spring.

More good news: It fits in my StrongArm holster quite nicely. It is also compatible with OWM and BlasterParts spring upgrades for the SA. And it loads faster due to the simplified barrel mech. Load 3, rotate, load 3, prime, shoot. I like the reduced heft too.

Lemme grab a screwdriver and get to work gentlemen 😉

😉 So it is really just a re-shelled Strongarm after all, huh?
