Let me begin by saying I don't actually own a BattleScout. For several reasons. Let me also add that I've been reluctant to join this thread because I follow Mojo's rule of only "adding to a conversation". So here goes.

Primarily, I don't like the fact that the BattleScout has a proprietary clip, compounded by the fact that additional clips aren't available at a reasonable price. Loosely translated, that means when your ten shots are done, you're dart food for 45 seconds while you reload your one and only clip once it's been ejected and you find it somewhere on the floor. Stupid ? Mmm, yeah.

Secondly, everyone who's reviewed the BattleScout complains it has sub-Elite performance and no Slam-Fire. For me, the Slam-Fire thing isn't important. Neither is the performance of the camera on either version. But the range and capacity is the tipping point for me.

Lookit, for the same money you could get a Rampage with a CS-25. It's reliable, ergonomic, has on-par Elite ranges, and plenty of darts. The BattleScout, on the other hand, has none of those advantages.

But hey, it's your money. Maybe the BattleScout is your ultimate must-have dream blaster. I dunno. I'm just sayin', it's not mine.
