Hey everyone, just a quick update: 1st, I know the audio is quiet. Definitely will be working on that in the future! 2nd, Just hosted another event (July 14th) and Lock Blaster (161) saw at least 5 more games and handled perfectly. My recommendation hasn't changed, but I can certainly say that I'm pleasantly surprised :) More updates in the future if need be. Cheers, - Leonn S.
I picked up one of these used for a couple dollars and it was broken the same way. It still shoots but does not rotate the cylinder. Opening it up was a pain but it turned out the indexing tab (ie the piece that moves the cylinder one slot) sheered off. The lever and gear system puts a lot of of force on the parts and if a flimsy plastic piece like that gets stuck in any way, it can easily break off.

Looks like Lock Blaster 161 doesn't feel like dying yet. See my X Shot Skins Group Review for a much more updated opinion on this blaster!
Bros underrated
