I swung by the TRU on my way home to check out the post-holiday inventory and discovered the Stats Blast Destroyer XL. This thing is pretty big - we're talking full LongShot sized.

As you can see in this picture, there is a clip on the bottom. But the variant I saw on the shelf had a unique side load feature. When you pull the bolt back, an access panel is revealed, and part of the breech pops out diagonally allowing you to load a single dart. When you push the bolt foward it retracts and the access panel door slides closed.

It's rather interesting, but completely inefficient. Let's face it, for all intents and purposes this thing is the world largest IonFire. But it is quite beautiful and rather intimidating.

I'm interested to know whether the "clip" version has a more traditional loading/firing style.
