When you need to shoot from your back yard to your front yard, through your house, |
Size compared to a Magnus and a Strongarm. |
Internals, complete with a massive plunger tube. |
Plunger size versus a Nite Finder plunger. |
In the end, the CycloneShock is an awesome blaster that's solidly built and packs a huge punch, but it lacks any real use other than for modding. Yes, it completely destroys the Magnus in terms of usability but there's no real incentive to use one of these over a Strongarm or FlipFury. I'm going to have to give this 9 out of 10 for being an all around great blaster, but it just filled a space that nobody really cared too much about to begin with.
The Verdict
Class- Heavy Revolver
Range- Excellent, around 60-65 feet with fair consistency.
Size- Roughly the same size as Magnus but a little bulkier.
Reliability- No issues.
Ammo- 6 2013 Mega Darts
Modding- Great potential, it can be rebarreled easily and the size of the plunger opens up a whole new world of possibilities for this monster.
Value- At $20, it's a better all around blaster than the Magnus but it's not as applicable as it's smaller counterparts.

Is It Better Than?
Magnus- Yes, the CycloneShock trumps the Magnus in every aspect. It has more ammo and a is a bit more powerful too. Plus you don't have to deal with the somewhat funky loading system either.
Strongarm- No, both blasters are of fairly equal power but the Strongarm is cheaper and is capable of slam fire. It really is all about choice here but I found the Strongarm to be more practical.
FlipFury- No, the Flipfury is the result of deciding the Strongarm wasn't good enough. It has a massive ammo capacity for a pistol and is capable of the same stuff the Strongarm is, but better.
