Paintball Shells

[MidnightRider]

Maybe I am going crazy/maybe not. More likely I am:D . But wasn't there a problem with a hopper not working properly with paint that had black shells? Nobody at my local field had any idea of any hopper having this problem. Got to thinking after I got home this afternoon that maybe it wasn't a hopper but some company's ACE system.

Could anybody help me. Please. Because If I am going crazy I better be seeing my doc to get some goooooooood meds.:p

Peace.

That is what I was thinking too but one of the kids at the field was shooting a Halo with Gatorblack paint. Gatorblack is an all black shelled paint made by RPS. So it wasn't the halo he was using. Maybe an older halo?

halos will not work with black paint. Yes you can put the paint in and it will feed but also it Wont stop feeding.

Yeah, I heard that halos had a problem detecting the moving paintballs that have a black shell. It's what makes me hesitate to buy one.

So I am not crazy. Drats!! No good meds for me.:(

Oh Well.

Peace.

i've seen revvies do it too. most systems that use an eye won't detect the black shells. they continue to feed when they shouldn't
