Is there anyone who makes a 45 elbow that isn't flimsy plastic? I went through several of those with my vertical Spyder before getting smart and switching to a metal clamping one for it. Has anyone solved this problem for mags?

60 bucks for a metal 45?? Thats outrageous. Buy another body.

Durrable and elbow: just isnt gonna happen

Yeah, that palmers one looks really good, but that's more than I paid for my mag. I ordered a couple of the atomic elbows so we'll see how they do.
Thanks guys.

Thats what you need. Ive used one on my rt feed cocker for years and it works great on my pf mag too. Its a softer plastic so its got a little bit of give and it grips feeds really well.

Thats what I have. They work great. They are sorta a soft plastic. If you have any problems with your hopper fitting cut out a notch in the elbow, and use a radiator clamp. It will look getto, but gets the job done

Oops, didn't check the price on the palmers one :tard: my bad. What is the "atomic elbow" made of?

some type of soft plastic. It will not crack, but still is very ridgid

Don't clamp it too tight, though. That's part of the problem with all of the broken feed necks. It's better to pick up a whole loader off the ground rather than a loader without a feed neck.

2nd :)

I use style like this. Better to tighten with screw driver than with electrical tape :ninja:

*edit* I just looked at my marker and it's the exact same one I have. I've used it for like 4-5 years +/-??? Only thing I've done to it is replace bolts and nuts :headbang:
