I thought the Flipfury was bad, this really sounds like a double flipfury-including double the jams. Which was already pretty common. Wait - your Flipfury jams? I don't think I've had a single jam or chamber-skip in the year-and-a-half I've owned mine, and I just introduced a few coworkers to it yesterday.

I bought my Doominator when it was around $20 during those Thanksgiving-time sales on Amazon. In hindsight (and after thinking about what Elliot said in the other thread) I should have bought one of those $14 Stryfes instead. A lot of times the dart doesn't leave the cylinder or barely does so, so it gets jammed when the cylinder rotates after the shot. The flipping mechanism itself doesn't jam, but the blaster does. That's sad to hear. Either you have a lemon, or I'm lucky and mine was exceptionally well-made.

Then again, sometimes I swear there's a difference in reliability between my two Strongarms. Maybe Nerf's quality control isn't as great as we like to think it is?
