My question of the Week: What pod pack can I fit my Qloader?

[RavishingEddie]

Ok so I am like 90% finished with my super qloaded emag for speedball and scenario play. I figured that if I run the fastest loader Qloader that is; it would eliminate the need of ever needing eyes which is ofcourse what my Emag does not have. But back to my question.

I love speedball and scenario pretty much the same, but I hate the horizontal pod packs they are so fugly to me. I like the vertical ones that pretty much everyone uses, but most of them are not as wide to fit a qloader. Does anyone know of any packs or pod holders that I can use to put 2 to 3 of these qloaders? I only plan to carry about 2 to 3 pods no more as I am a hunter and don't need much paint just good ole accuracy to get the job done. Now I know many of you think this is just some guy with a dumb qloader crap set up, but I made the coolest set up you will see pretty soon. So can someone please help me? Please?
Thank you

The Spec Ops 2 Pod leg holster fits Q-Pods very nicely. I use one on each leg, and love it. Of course I use a sturdy belt to attach them to, but with them dropped to the middle of my thigh I hardly know they are there.

That's my recommendation.

We have a harness in stock and we will be adding one with a remote tank in about a month. Spec Ops and Rap 4 both carry vests and packs that support our pods. One of our players favorite pod carrying systems is made by Flurry.

That's what a qloader tech responded to my email asking him what packs would work. They also recommend the M-pack by topstitch in there FAQ. I have also been told that all SpecOps packs and vests work.

BTW I also asked him about reballs. They won't work with q-loaders.

That's too bad the reballs won't work.

Pretty much all of Spec Ops branded products would work. They are pricey though, for the most part. These were cheap, and fit my tastes well. I don't like my pods being on my back.

Got news for you I have a Q-Loader Mag and reballs work fine for me...

mabe look into the empire fast pack? you could probably mod that to fit the Q-pods in. If you stretch out the loops (for normal pods) then it might work. the thing that sucks is that you will be carrying around 400 rounds only with you. that's a q-pod on your gun, plus 3 in the pack.

Doesn't Q-loader make their own pack?

That's interesting because I have heard other people say that also but here is what they told me when I emailed them:

Hello, I'm just curious about using reballs with the q-loader. Do you know if it will work or if there will be problems with it. Thanks.

Reballs unless manufacturer quality delrin will not work.

Thanks for the fast response. Can you explain why rubber reballs such as http://www.reball.se/ will not work but delrin balls would? Also, do you have any recommendations for packs that will work well with Q-pods other than the M-pack by Top Stitch? Thanks again.

Delrin is the same exterior texture that paintballs are and will not give under pressure. Rubber balls give 50% faster on the exterior shell than paintballs. Rubbers exterior texture is also way different from paintballs in that it tends to grab traction on any serface it touches. I have heard of people using different lubes to get them to work in our system but over time the balls will swell from the lube and thruout the use the shot cosistancy will be noticeably less. We have a harness in stock and we will be adding one with a remote tank in about a month. Spec Ops and Rap 4 both carry vests and packs that support our pods.

Oh yeah and this was exactly one month ago so I guess their new harness should be coming soon...

NXe harnesses work just fine, that's what I use and I wouldn't trade it in for anything else. They've recently redesigned their harness line so I can't personally vouch for them, but I doubt it's much different if at all from their original harness design.

I was under the impression that Q-Pods would work in any harness, is this wrong? I seem to recall the rep at the Commander's Cup a couple years ago saying that was what the deal was.

I believe they are a little bigger/fatter than most pods.

You are correct. They are fatter than most pods. The harness on the Q-Loader site, though, is usually more than enough harness for most folks.

Good to know

This is probably too late...

But Flurry scenario vests fit qloader pods great! Better than any other pack including even the qloader branded pack. I've looked around and have used a lot of different harnesses but the Flurry vests have been the best by far (so far.)
