I picked up two classic blue Stryfes on eBay, one NIB and the other used but in mint condition. And I already had an extensively modded orange XD Stryfe. One of my favs. But fact is, other than some minor differences in the locks, there's no difference between them, other than the color and the accessories they originally came with. Correct me if I'm wrong, but mechanically I think they're completely identical.

And to BigS' point, these blue Stryfes might be old, but from a modding perspective, they're just as good as the XD version. All I really want is the shell, the flywheel cage, and the pusher mech. I'm going to strip out all the extra locks (or some of 'em anyway) and replace almost everything else. I say "some of 'em" because I actually like certain locks. For instance, the old Stryfe has a trigger lock when the clip is out of darts. I like that feature. But things like the kill switch on the jam door are completely unnecessary. Darn lawyers !
