i'd buy a pf body with a built in elbow. no more cheap plastic elbows that rock back and forth, and or snap when you put pressure on them.

some guns come with metal elbows and such..... but for mags.... No-rise bodies have built in ajustment so u dont need a vert elbow, and Xmags/SFL Emags have lo-rise bodies so u could just used a hose clamp like Load and myself, instead o an elbow.

In your case... a no-rise body would be best suited.

i heard those have a problem with the balls being blown up into the hopper again, but i have lx, so i guess it shouldnt be that bad, right?

the agd store only sells them for emags and rt's. is there a site i can get them at?

Emag/RTP bodies work just fine on regular mags, just not the other way around.

I think AGD might be out of stock, but if you like VF then the no-rise is as good as it gets, especially with a halo and LX :)

The adjustable elbow thing would be cool, but decent quality plastic ones work just fine if you take care of em. Personally if i take a fall on my gun/hopper, the elbow is the first thing I want to break and absorb the impact :)

gotta be better than plastic if you don't like vert feed(me)

i dont have a halo though. i have an xboard revvi. would that work alright? i also have intellifeed on it.

lol. i bought one of those "decent quality" ones and i tightened it to fit my gun (and no, i didnt over tighten), just enough so it wouldnt slip around and SNAP, the neck broke.

I have a VLbow (I think that's what it's called). It has a plastic shim where it connects to the Powerfeed. It's tight w/o over tightening.

i have had a norise body for months and there is no
blow back on the balls. who ever told u this is wrong :D
there great bodies
the only complaint i have about them is the allen screw they put in to clamp the neck down is very easily striped.
but 5 cents l8r im ready to go with new screw.
another thing i suppose is the feed tube is really big
with my new egg i had to actually run a bead of superglue on the hopperneck to fatten it up a little so it would stay tight.

all in all i love the norise

*edit* oh yeah mag-hatter u might try tunaman he usually has some.

why not just get a center feed?

because the centerfeed is percieved too be really high, yet it is actually the loewst high rise on the market, tom did a comparison a while back.

On the marker, it does feel really high, i will say that

but if you can put ur hopper as low as it will go(norise) and not have ANY feeding side effects why not do it?
less of a target to shoot at.
