I feel like including the DZ Thunderbolt would’ve been good since thats my personal choice for this class/price range but that’s just me. At the end of the day I’d still be able to play about the same with any of the 3 and I think most would too. Also, even though I now play with almost exclusively half darts I’m still pleasantly surprised to see a non-half dart review on your channel. Keep doing what you’re doing man and we’ll always support you
@@anvu27257 appreciate the kind words! I agree that the thunderbolt would’ve been a good comparison, but I never grabbed one when they first came out and I can’t seem to find them on store shelves now. I heard a rumor that they’re actually being discontinued, but I don’t know if that’s true. Also planning a couple other full length and mega vids soon so stay tuned 👀
Yeah, the Villainator's stock is still the best alternative for the Spectrum. Crazy they haven't introduced more. The Clip Mania is internally almost identical to the Spectrum, which to me makes it an issue of which platform and accessories you prefer. It's one of those rare instances where appearance and gimmicks make all the difference. If you think you prefer one over the other... it's probably the right one for you, because you can't really go wrong with either.
When I hear the flywheel, it's like making a milkshake in a concrete mixer. Even if it costs 2 dollars, it only makes plastic garbage in your house. Better one honest nylon blaster than 5 of these. Otherwise a good review
@@kingofgames234 Buy online, in Europe nothing po blaster or dart zone is on shelves, with the exception for the downtuned x-shot longshot and soon fury-x
@@Murphys_Law9 understandable. But in my opinion, this is actually one of the better feeling xshot blasters. Meanwhile you can audibly hear how cheap and creaky the spectrum is in the mic 😂
Xshot has a much better stock, extra darts and two extra 15x dart mags. They’re pretty similar otherwise. I already own a spectrum so I’m good. The scope and removable grip are useless. Also the mag holds 12x darts not 10x.
The stated capacity on those mags for the spectrum is definitely 10x You might be able to fit extra darts in there but going over stated capacity can lead to prematurely wearing out the follower spring. It’s crazy just how many darts and mags the xshot comes with for the price. But if you already have a spectrum, I can see why you would just stay with it.
Finally, a real comparison video

Full length darts are never going away let’s not forget there are kids that enjoy this hobby not everything needs to be 200fps half darts
Bruh! That angled Foregrip looks great on the xshot , awesome video!
@@KernCountyFoamFlingers wait til you see my kit for it I’m working on 👀
@ can’t wait to see it ! Have you found a way to make the trigger better? I’ll have to pick one up soon
@ I haven’t addressed the trigger yet but I have some ideas
@ I may pick one up tomorrow if I do and figure something out I’ll let you know
If anything, this video shows the uptick in quality that companies have driven each other to do, and how far/fast things are progressing
Definitely!

@@GinxZypher 💯
Sound quality continues to be good! A real improvement over the previous setup.
@@zompus thanks! 🙏
A worthy upgrade indeed!
Thank you for the video. I do like the comparisons video. Please keep it up. Take care.
@@CRNerf will do , thanks for the support 💪
Love your vids man
@@adamb416 appreciate your support! You keeping watching em then I’ll keep making them 🤝
I dumped a drum mag on that like button just from the two blasters your comparing. Great comparison
@@kelb0y9o20 hell yeah !
I choose the Xshot Insanity Clipmania because its better in every way
@@DOUBLEPUNCHPRONERFER pretty much 😂
(Except the trigger feel)
@kingofgames234 my trigger is perfect
Also slightly cheaper.

The answer to this video is very clearly the Maxim pro.
@@IIDASHII CLEARLY 😂
Now I’m gonna mod a maxim pro to take a full length mag just because of you 👀 (jk)
The Clip Mania is a blast! I really liked the Spectrum, but it’s proprietary stock was always a 👎. Plus, 3 magazines?!? 🤯
@@SavannahNerfNetwork exactly! Still have mad love for the spectrum but this clip mania is just that good!
I was hoping the BB Stryfe cage would fit the xshot... Darn
@@arenhansen625 I haven’t tried it yet but it might. I have one , I’ll try it out when I have some time to open up the blaster
@kingofgames234 thanks! I have my spectrum cage from BB that I will put into a thunderbolt, but I wouldn't mind a second SMG
The thunderbolt wins from both!
@@jolemaire6629 I never got one before they pulled it from store shelves 😭
@@kingofgames234 Buy online, in Europe nothing po blaster or dart zone is on shelves, with the exception for the downtuned x-shot longshot and soon fury-x
I own all 3 and I know it's not part of the video but... I'll take the Thunderbolt.
At least in semi stock configurations
@@m00k61 yeah I wanted to throw thunder bolt into the mix but I didn’t buy one when they were readily available and now they’re not on store shelves
I just hate how cheap the Xshot feel, it sounds like thin plastic

Ewww, people who play with things and have educated opinions! 😮
@@Blasterhub so true! How dare I 😂
