Can't wait till this comes out! Hasbro is also doing an Elite LongShot! I saw a comment on some video and this person said his dad works for Hasbro and and that they are planning on releasing the Elite Alpha Trooper (Which what this topic is about) and an Elite LongShot. I can't wait. But you know you can't believe everything you read.

Okay, my guess is that the commenter was misinformed and thought that bazookafied's elite longshot was a real on the market gun.

Okay, so I picked up an Israeli paratrooper satchel at a surplus store, and I can fit two raider drums in comfortably.

Do not do this^ I used to carry mine like that, and now my bandolier elastic is so streched out it can barely hold a 6-clip. Also, when I was carrying a drum like this, it fell out, and the clear part cracked on the stairs.

I know right! I personally don't like the 35 round drum, as it adds too much weight to one side of the gun, in my opinion. I'm sure I'm not the first one to do this, but I've found that the 18 round drum fits comfortably in the recon stock. Unfortunately, the recon stock is a bit flimsy, and I'm just a bit too lazy to waste my time modding such a crappy stock when I already have the raider stock 😝 PS, I encourage anyone who has access to a military surplus store to check out the paratrooper satchels I mentioned!

Langley Edit: Merging these because it was reported as a double post, which I guess is true, even though they were several hours apart.

Hey, I recently got the stryfe too, and I'm thinking about trying your master key mod. Just wondering though, how did you make that retaliator barrel extension have the attachment pipe coming out? I modded a recon barrel to look like an M16 once, but all that entailed was a little sanding and pulling out of the inner pipe. If there is already a thread on this barrel mod, could someone please direct me to it? Thanks.

I took part in one war where some guy put drum clips upside down on the bandolier, but it looked REALLY uncomfortable. You might be able to attach them to the tac vest though, or put them in the tac vest blaster pocket thing. Also, you could try looking for real military or airsoft magazine holders. They might work.
