So I just bought a Recon Mk2, and I figured that it would be the new one that accepted the 18-dart stick mags.
unfortunately, I was wrong.

How can I contact Nerf to get me a compatible one, or how can I fix this via mods?

I spent $25 on something incompatible with 3/4s of what I use, I really need help here.

I don't know how to contact nerf's customer support but if you want to mod it to fix the problem you remove some of the plastic at the back of the magwell. I don't know offhand the exact details, however.

It's a simple matter of shaving some of the plastic away. This video explains how to fix it

I might buy one... I love the hand guard  :D  Only I already have a retaliator and I'm questioning whether or not to spend $25, ideas?

I'm actually going through this process at the moment. I submitted a ticket at their help page https://hasbro-new.c...elp.com/app/ask and simply let them know that the Recon I does not work with my other Nerf cartridges.

Someone got back to me very quickly and asked me for some information like the number stamped into the bottom of the blaster and some numbers that are molded into the side. They also sent me a prepaid label. Basically they'll replace it with one of the new blasters after they receive my return. I haven't gotten the replacement yet but they've been very pleasant to deal with so far. Good luck!

Basically a early release of the retaliator. Similar fire distance. HUGE downfall to this gun that is worth shying away from is the plastic hold pin holding the breech to the rest of the internals. heavy modding and it will break. Thats what i have come across in my findings. Cool gun aesthetics wise. will accept retaliator innards to as a fix for the pin. bobololo on youtube made a killer one.
