HobbyMods vs OMW

BloodKrunk is at it again! Feast your eyes on another awesome comparison from our old pal. Similar to his Retaliator kit comparison, he takes a look at various brands and their pros and cons. Enjoy!

Retaliator Kits from around the World

Blood Angel is back, and this time he's looking at more than darts! Our resident Bow-wielding badass is here to talk about Retaliators, and not just any the variety of mod kits from across the globe.

Especially since the Retaliator pump action craze has hit, everyone wants to get the most out of their purchase and breathe new life into their blaster. Of course, drop in kits are an instant go to, but which one is best?

What makes these so different anyway? Is one brand really better than another? Can you justify the price of importing some of these kits from overseas?

Look no further for your answer dear reader. Read on and educate yourself in all things Retaliator.

Orange Mod Works Retaliator Unleashed

Orange Mod works has announced their Retaliator "Unleashed" kit. The kit (also known as "Stage 1") will feature a trigger catch, two double strength trigger catch springs (in case you lose one), a reinforcement plate, and a 5+ kg mainspring. The spring should be close to double the strength of the stock spring.

From Orange Mod Works Facebook page:

"Hey guys, the Retaliator Stage 1 kit will be available for pre-order on September 14. Our planned release date for this kit is October 30. All pre-orders will ship with a metal trigger. If you wish to purchase a spring on its own, those will be available for purchase next week for the price of $6.00. As a final note, unlike previous preorders, we will be unable to split any shipments that include the Retaliator kit, as our new store software will not allow us to do so. As such, all orders that include a Retaliator Stage 1 kit will be shipped in their entirety upon the release of the kit. If you want other items with the Retaliator kit prior to its release, be sure to place separate orders (one for the Retaliator kit, one for everything else)."
