    Lanard Speedloader Empty Lanard Speedloader

    Post  RL Thu Mar 31, 2011 7:56 am

    Checked Chatswood Toys R' Us, and I found (and bought) this.

    Lanard Speedloader 31032010

    Never seen one before.. so I decided to grab one. It was for $16, and the box seemed water damaged. During unboxing the gun seemed a bit dirty.

    Thankfully it shoots darts. It's a bit top heavy, which to me suggests it's not little boy blaster. It shoots 8m flat and about 10m angled (as advertised)

    Lanard Speedloader 31032011

    The fact it can hold 8 darts may also add to the top-heavy problems. Like the Triple Shot it has that gear thing, but it's a bit noisier to reload. The AR's look easy to remove.

    I haven't opened it, I just wanna enjoy its rare-ness for a while before opening it.

    Last thing - the box had "X-Stream" written on it. It's a shame we don't see these blasters in Australia too often.

    It's an interesting blaster - there's a gearing mechanism on the inside, so your pump stroke translates to a shorter (but stronger) plunger stroke.

    I want its turret.

    Go ahead and open her up and see if you can fit the turret inside a TS shell.

    lol I'd sell it to you, but only if I can find another one of it.

    I gotta open up my NIB TS first.. then this one. Remember I sold you the turret in my now singled TS.

    Yeah thanks, it came yesterday.

    I'm sure you can place the Speedloader's turret where the TS's recess is. Don't worry about the rotational bar. And don't worry about opening the NIB TS; it's not necessary.

    On the subject note of this blaster, it was available in K-Mart about 5-6 years ago in its green/purple scheme.

    If you can get more of this spesific type, buy as many as you can as I would buy about 2

    I sorta indicated that I would've in the OP.. but it was the only one. The box was <Censored> up basically. If a Recon box was in a condition like the Speedloader was, you wouldn't have bought it. The gun shell has a few minor scratches, which suggests it may have been hanging around the back of the TRU shelves.

    The second TRU I visit, the second rare blaster I found (well.. the Atomizer isn't a blaster, but it's rare)

    Btw.. another thing Brad.. how much do you think its value is stock?

    The gun is worthless, its the turret we want.

    well unless I'm gonna get 16 bucks and a bit of profit from selling the turret, I'm in no position to sell it.

    This was totally my first ever Nerf gun from a good 5 years ago now. Cost me $1 from Kmart. Best Ive been able to push out of it is 50ft. Not to bad guess, worth buying.

    It's actually not a bad 'secondary'. If you put a NF spring in it, you'll be able to pull out 50-60ft. Not bad for a pump action pistol :).

    Alright I'll consider that. The spring with it is tripe, I can barely get 30 feet with it, and that's angled 45 degrees high up my head height
