Seriously, I'm in indescision here.

I've narrowed it down to three choices:

Revvy 200 round

shake and bake 200 round (with the channel underneath)

Other. lol.

Seriously, I'm shooting a classic triggered automag right now, I don't need speed, I need reliability and ease of use.

I want a hopper built by a genuis for dummys.

So post up what you think.

Revvy FTW.

The only other thing I would consider at the moment would be a vlocity.

By the way... its Shake and Pray.

Revy's are incredibly simple and reliable.

Pre-BE shelled Revvy. Otherwise, go for a Ricochet AK. They're cheap, simple, reliable, and just as fast as a Revvy. Oh, and they only require one 9v to do 12bps whereas the Revvy requires 2 9v's to do the same speed.

Just don't bother with a Revvy unless it has the older style shells.

revvy, hands down, THE BEST HOPPER out there! haha, if i had an ego, or a marq, or any of the fast guns out nowadays, i'd rock my revvy over anything else because its sooo reliable. if not a revvy, a regular old VL 200 will do the job.

if your looking for a "hopper for dummies" (sort of like those yellow book series) and your shooting a clasic mag ,not @ 21 +bps ,well i got to say that the revy is the all around ,maintenance free,all reliable hopper ,imho ;)
now when i wip out the Xmag ,....i also break out the halo V35 :D

See I'd think of the Rico AK as more maintenance free and user friendly. Only one battery, the shells are sturdier, the o-ring neck makes it easy to fit on any feedneck, simple, reliable feeding. It's more consistent than a Revy too IMO.

I use a Rico AK. Great hopper even for my xvalved mag w/ULT because there's no need to shoot faster than that.

Either AK or Revvy. I like the AK because it's only 1 battery.

I would say revvy but the shells and particularly the door is a weakness an will cause you to replace it long before other hoppers.

I am using a velocity with a virtue chip for all my mags since, you got it... my revvy fill door broke off.

Revvy or Reloader 2. I wont go back to the old shake and pray after a disaster I had. 3 balls in the VL2000 stuck together (cheap paint + hot and humid = Micky Mouse head looking thing jamming the feed neck) which cost me the game. An agitating hopper moves things around and doesn't usually allow paint time to stick together.

My 2 cents.

any 100 or 50 rounder is the way to go.

I have a halo backman and I like it alot , its a bit heavier but its built sturdier than a revy and its sound actuated so its like having it itellifed without the cable.
