    Power feed side?

    Ok, I'm getting senile in my old age.What side power feed is the most common? I'm thinking that is it on the right of the body. Holding the gun, the powerfeed plug will be on the right hand side...

    I'm asking because it seems like I have more bodies where they are on the left

    Thanks,
    Scott

    On automags? Or markers in general?

      the only one I have that holds the hopper to the right is my mini mag, the other 8 are all hopper left, which stinks for a right handed person.

          Feed on drivers side, hopper on passengers. Reverse valves allow for the use of the opposite configuration.

            that's true for minimags, but for classic automags powerfeed right, hopper left is more common.

                  That's a euro feed, one of crazy John Sostas ideas. People in the US drool over them because they weren't sold here, but there were plenty made over on your side of the pond. The cool thing is you could put an extension on there before attaching your hopper and get another 5+ paintballs "in line" to fall into the breech (gravity loaders were unreliable at high speeds) which let you shoot off a big burst quickly without worrying about chops - because of the angle, it only moved your hopper up 1cm from where it would be otherwise.
