Again, I am asking this in total seriousness and not trying to start a flame war (although maybe asking a question like the one above on MCB is just that). To be fair, I would cherish an x-mag or something by AKA over any new electro that the pros are using, and the agglets on "the site that must not be named" would never understand.

It really is something you need to hold in your own hands to understand. Most markers will shoot the same, as far as distance is concerned. You are mainly paying for the time and skill it takes to make one. All Desert Ducks, Redux's are hand made. The Kamikaze Shooter DD68, AKA the Desert Duck was created by Dave Loo, who is sadly no longer with us. Mr. Carter carries on the creation of the Duck, but will only make one if you ask, and make sure your wallet is lighter to boot. Steve Brett, known to most as Mongo, out of his love of the Desert Duck has spent a lot of time, energy, and money to rework it and create the Redux.
And besides you look like a bad *** on the field with one in your hands
