For its price in Australia, the RR is worth consideration only if you are particularly interested in it (as I was). For <15USD, the Rapid Red is an absolute steal and is certainly worth buying multiple of. I have heard of some clearance sales in the US taking them down to 10USD and less. 39AUD could get you a Retaliator AND a Strongarm. 39AUD is a bit much for what is effectively a Stryfe with a slightly bigger clip (mag), since the Stryfe was available for 25AUD, down to 20AUD in sales. I haven’t seen any in my local BigWs for months, I only ever saw them once, during said sale. The Rapid Red was available at BigW for 39AUD, with one particular sale taking it down to 29AUD. The main difference between the Rapid Red and Stryfe is that the RR is stuck as a pistol/SMG style blaster, while the Stryfe can be dressed up as just about anything. The small size of the RR makes it very easy to manevuer, especially useful in close quarters. You won’t be hitting targets from afar like you could with a Retaliator, but in close quarters the ease of spewing out darts makes you quite dangerous. It’s a decent all-round blaster (assuming you get around the poor grey trigger range) with an emphasis on rate of fire. The Rapid Red performs much the same role as the other semi-auto flywheelers like the Stryfe and Rayven. It is possible to completely stall the flywheels if you fire fast enough. ![]() Being a flywheeler though, rapid fire does significantly decelerate the flywheels. A higher ROF is possible with faster accelerating motors and a good trigger finger. I can achieve 5 darts per second relatively easily with all of the semi-auto flywheelers. Rate of fire is impressive, provided the motors can keep up. Elite darts never are and never will be accurate. Very disappointing when the Elite-era blasters are meant to be a step up from the N-Strike era.Īccuracy is decent, though this can be attributed more to lack of power than anything else. Range wise the grey trigger Rapid Red is quite poor, achieving about 9 metre ranges parallel to ground.
