Time for a Revy?

[anthraxxx]

Whenever I sit back and hammer on the trigger of my automag classic as fast as I can I will get a ball break. As far as I can tell the break is happening close to where the feed tube empties into the breach as evident by the paint on the bolts nose and paint at the bottom of the feed tube. Conclusion, balls not feeding as fast as I am pulling. How fast can a regular hopper feed balls into a classic mag? I have never timed it so I don't know how many balls I am capable of firing in a sec. Is a revy an absolute necessity for an automag classic? What are some of the experiences with you all and revy's v.s. regular hoppers? I have read that the length of the feed tube is required so that blow back is minimized. If I get a revy can I cut the feed tube down since balls are now being "fed" into the gun? Thanks guys.

revolutions are a basic neccesity , a gravity can feed as fast as the balls can fall. an electronic hopper stirs the balls up so there is a constant feed. any gun will chop if your not feeding fast enough to your ROF. get a revy it'll go to good use

Man go right for a 12, I had a 9 and I could outshoot that like nothing with my benchy, now i got a 9 converted to twelve with an x board and evil proppeller from drop zone. the 9 volt feeds at 23 seconds per 180 balls, the one i got is 13 seconds per 180 balls.

i timed it with a stop watch
