Dual detents?

[craltal]

I'm thinking of having some work done to my emag and was wondering if having a second detent added to my exile body will offer any appreciable benefit aside from symmetry.

If you happen to blow a detent out, the gun will still function without balls rolling down the barrel.

but what are the odds of that?

I like it for the fact that it makes it harder for the Empire Halo on fastest speed to force paintballs past my detent.

When I used the same halo on a standard ULE body it fed paint past the detents quite a bit. With 2 detents, I usually only get it like 2 times in 1000 rounds.

A second detent definately wouldnt hurt. I guess it all depends on your gun and how well it and the hopper get along.

I always put a second one on any of my Angels that dont, but they older ones were notorious for having halos push balls past the detent. Only one of my mags has two detents and I havent noticed a difference yet.

or get a kila maybe???? I blow my detent off at field and made stop for two games.

DO NOT get the piston style detents! I think Killa V2s are the bearing style though.

I got some of the Cobra Piston Detents, and launched them out the side of an emag within 500 shots

I only blew a detent out once. It had lasted for over 60000 shots, so it didn't owe me anything.

I never really considered adding a 2nd detent myself, but I never had a feed problem with any of my mags and my angel already has 2 detents.
