What do you guys think of this. I guess it uses extra "blow off" air to agitate the balls.

Wonder if you could rig it for mags?

I think its a silly idea. Id rather have the weight/inconvenience of batteries than have an air line to my loader. This is an old link as well. I believe it was done earlier on the pvi shockers, just hook up a micro line to the exhaust port, and the other end in your hopper. But what do i know, kthxby.

That was air assist on Shockers, a hose ran from gun to the loader elbow to prevent blowback.

I'll be getting a, eVLution 2, I just thought this was neat, might be cool for some of you mech mag guys if it could be rigged.

I have one now. The green hose goes to the elbow which has a hole in it to screw that fitting you see at the end of the hose.

I'd like to try one of these when I build a mech cocker.

It's not that old, don't worry Warped. I think it looks neat. You could use an lpr off the side of the valve on a mag to power it. You'd need a t-fitting of course. I'd like to see if the thing actually performs consistantly. If it does, it's a great product idea. Anyone wanna buy one and try it out?

I think it is just like the air assit on shockers. It doesnt address ball jams, only the ball stack.

it was on AO months ago. looks like a cool idea, but not practical at all. just use a halo.

Some people don't need or want a 26BPS forcefeed loader. I'm one of them, since where I play(most PSP events), you can't shoot over 15BPS. Give me an eVLution 2 any day. :)
