    It may look like an egg, but it looks like it will work like a revvy, you may want to put a raceway like the egg has to guide the balls into the feedneck. Also how cool would it be if it had a door that slid like on a domino box. IT would be hard to break, but i don't know how easily it would be to load w/ it.

    Nice idea though.

      maybe.... if u incorperated a no-rise into the hopper... angel threaded... like a clamp. so u cold screw in the neck, align the hopper, and tighten it down. i dunno.. just an idea lol.

        Might work. But you'd never be able to get it sold unless you pay for the rights to the various patents you'd be infringing.

          agreed

          also i dont really think we need another hopper WE NEED BETTER SHELLS

          and making it forcefeed would make that slick desighn HUGE as halo possibly a bit heavier

            also the shorter the feed the slower the ROF. And having vertually none would really limit the max ROF the hopper could feed.

              also guys w/ xmags dallaras and anyone w/ a body over the valve is screwed but what if (they probably already make it) you made an adapter for a qloader that fit on your flush feed neck. those are force fed and short necks dont matter w/ force feed. BTW an egg w/ can be sawed off to fit pretty flush w/ the body.

                it wouldnt feed very fast because it doesnt have a little depression for the balls to get lined up in, like a halo, or egg.

                  I like the design.. I have often thought about a hopper that sits right on top of the gun, I think it would be awesome as the center of gravity would not be shifted as much as when you have a hopper sitting high on the marker.

                      okay... i just skimmed through this thread so if this has been said o well. i was kinda iffy when i saw how big the feedneck was, dont you think that this would cause some problems on how stable the hopper woul;d be to the gun. But other that than hey man you are really going places with this thing and i would deffinitely purchase it if the bps got high enough.

                        i dont think it will work notice how most other hoppers slope downward like a revvy into the feed neck if theres no slope wuts to put the balls near the agitator

                            I think that problum wil be resolved on accedent because that i THINK that the parts by the ld wil be bigger then thought... making the slope higher, but if not.. make the slope higher, and in the gap make a space for intellifeed to connect
