just curious on what is the actual make up of the warp feed housing. not just a simple answer of plasitic.

anyways ive noticed that this material seems brittle. i have had one houseing shatter, and 2 teammates have had the warp break off mouting plate.

could AGD look into a more druable "crash" resistant material...

just $25 per side of warp feed is kinda high if looks we r goning to go though atleast one side a year. especially the back since that is where it moutnts.

The material is called CAB and it stands for something, Acetal, Buterate or something close to that. It is the same material the original GOOD viewloaders were made of. We made it almost an 1/8" thick everywhere to give it strength, the thicker you make it the heavier it gets, so that thickness was the best compromise. The new HALO loaders will be made from the same stuff but thinner. You really have to crush it to rip it off the mount, pleas send us that case we would like to see it.
