    Rail or Loader?

    I'm running an RT-ULE with a Warp right now. There are a few things making this a beast to hold. One is the stainless steel reg on my tank, which I can't afford to upgrade. The others are the hideous RT-Pro Rail and Stainless shroud and the Halo B sitting on the Warp.

    I've got a few bucks to spend, and I want to get a few ounces off of this thing. I'm digging the Splinter rail, for the weight and foregrip slot, but I like the Apache loader, too. My question is, which one do I dump the cash on? I'd like to get both, but I can't put too much out at once. What'd be the best?

    If you wanna save a lot of weight go to Logic Paintball and check out their Alpha rail. It weighs just over 2 oz. As for the loaders, I've never liked the way the ricochets looked, but the apache does does feed pretty fast. An egg would be a good idea, their cheap and are pretty light. Hope I helped.

      I'm pretty set on the loader, but I'll look at the rail, for sure.

      On an off note, should blue Warp Feeds look purple? I ordered blue...and it's very purpleish looking. I can understand how it might be considered blue, but I think they should label it as "purple". Not blue.

        I wouldn't get the Logic rail, I would go for the splinter.
        Alpha rails use an inferior sear assembally (and they are ugly in my opinion )

        I got an apache for christmas, I havent actually used it yet but it looks nice. I would get it over an egg because eggs are UGLYYY and an egg+warp = no fun.
        Really you dont need an apache since you have a warp feed, a 12v revy will work fine. I would say halo is defently overkill but w/e floats your boat.
        Wiegh your rail and halo and look at the wieght differences, and buy the one that gives you less weight. I just went and wieghed my Apache with 2 9v batterys in it and no paint for you. It came out at 15.3 oz.

          Yeah, I don't want to have to buy a whole other sear assembly for the other rail. I've got mixed feelings on the looks, too...plus it isn't shipping (annoed) until mid January.

          I'm considering saving money and just going for an AK loader instead of the Apache...I might be able to squeeze both that way.

          And the Halo ways MUCH more than the rail, especially with batteries. I love the thing in a normal config, but with this Warp, she's ugly.
