kinda makes ya wonder why his sig says eggy 2 and yet he doesnt have one...

:tard:

eggs are stronger then anyone makes them out to be, if you arnt going nuts on speed a rev or egg is fine, or find a used halo.

Get a clear egg. The Black ones seem to be the ones with the weak stuff. Also take one spring out of the lid and ur set!

It's all in how you take care of your gear, take care of the halo, assemble everything correctly, clean it correctly, it'll be a happy loader... use rechargables and recharge them the night before you play...

The only loader you can treat like **** is a Revy.. those things are tanks (I even have the new-style that supposedly "suck") I dropped it twice then shot it point blank... dropped as in from 6feet up onto concrete...

Hmm. currently im decideing to get a new loader. A this point i debating between an Egg or an Apache. I personally like the active agitation the apache features as well the feedrate . The apaches seem to have a pretty decen overall review.

In anycase I think a halo would be overkill at this point, although a force fed hopper does sound tempting.

You should talk to Mark Hunter of Cartel, they're sponsored by Ricochet and he says he'll sell apaches for 65 bucks (He's sorta local to me, I was thinking about buying one)

www.cartelpaintball.com (I think... )

do what blaze said.

get a apache. you may think the look of them is odd, but it grows on you. I got one ball that ricocheted at my last tourney. ref looked around my hopper and almost took me out for wiping..

they are as fast as a egg2. built well. good on batteries. what more can you want?

if you wanna shoot 22 bps. get a halo. if you want a solid loader, want to be different. want to shoot @ 16-18 bps. get a apache

For $80 you could get the starter Q-loader kit, if set up right it feeds up to 40 BPS or some ungodly number like that.

I used to own a Rico AK.
It was pretty loud, maybe alittle than a Egg.
The AK though, was very slow so I got an Egg.

i had a apache
for a gravity feed loader it was great it was fast and not AS loud as a AK but still loud.
i really liked the game timer on it.

i would say either get a used halo b or a new apache with your money.
i have had a few eggs there nice but break easily.

one of the best things about it is the way it senses ball movement. no silly eye or anything like that.

It is a special break switch that is in the feed tube. If it is bent it doest load. as a ball drops it senses it in the switch and loads. when you are out of paint it stops moving.

my friends egg spins till tomarrow if the eye doesnt sense paint.. silly thing

The only complaint I have about my Apache is the auto off. If it doesn't rotate for 20 minutes, it shuts itself off. I had it do that to me in the middle of a game. We were playing in the woods and were stalking the base. It can take a while. I had the timer set to 35 minutes and after 20, off it went. Thing was beeping when I turned it back on, not a fun experience when you are sitting in hostile territory...

Other than that, it's a great loader. I use it for more fast paced games now and have yet to be dissapointed.

I love mine, though you have to reload after ever 100! The "q" doesent need batts, another hopper (like the warp), and is THE FASTEST LOADER IN THE WORLD - hands down. I have clips of it beating out a halo w/ board as tested on a viking and an rt with a 2000 psi hookup "reacting".

friggin awesome..its like a wireless intellifeed to a revvy....only gripe i have is that sometimes paintball get stuck in my hopper...for some ungodly reason(i think it might have been moisture or the small amount of grease/oil on them that made them stick) it didnt feed once when i was playing back and laying some paint...but other than that it worked like a dream..
