Anyone seen these anywhere? This is the first time I have seen them? Do we really need another electronic middl eof the road hopper?

Yep, they've been out for a few months now, although I haven't heard any reports on if the work or not...

Working at the paintball shop I have only had 3 people ask about them, ever.

We dont carry them because they are just another middle of the road hopper.

I havent seen one myself either come to think about it... do they really exist?

probably like the Pneumatic gun from WGP

they exist in print adds and artist renderings and that is it.

It looks like it has alot of the features the Ricochet hoppers do, i.e. bend sensor, o-ring feedneck, etc.

like the richo. it feeds every time a little piece of plastic/metal bends from a paintball moving over it

Tippmann and Ric have built these hoppers together and are essencially the Ric Rhino and 2KX with "House Brand" shells. There was a press release a few months ago reguarding this I believe.

I do remember there was a partnership, was just suprised they changed the design of the hopper and just didnt slap their logo onto it.
