    QLOADER preferance

    Do you prefer the rounded end of a Qpod facing the barrel or you? For speed and ease of reloading. Pics would be great if u have them , mine is going on a classic and a micro.

    Mine are to the barrel... round end pointed out.... It makes it relatively easy to change as you draw in, twist pull down/forward and pop a new one in and go back up... havent' really tried it the other way though..

      I used to stick mine towards me, above my tank. it was pretty easy too.

      I think generally, it won't be too hard to swap them out in-game no matter where they are.
      you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

          I just did a quick ghetto mount , it balances best with the feedport of the Q slightly forward
          of the trigger, thats with the round pound towards me, im at work so thats as far as ive gotten, feels SWEET tho, if i can figure out how to load it i,ll get to fire it tonight.

          ANY suggestions on LOADING an prewinds ? i got this in trade and have never used one.

            Wtworks the flat peice of metal mounted on ur Q that is screwed to the grip , is that custom made? or store bought?
            The nxt one that has a LOOP that goes around the front grip is what mine looks like.
            So MAYBE I NEED to buy a new front ? I just looked at the Q website i guess what i want is a CMS socket ? yes ?or no

              That is one of the custom mounts that Q sells. It comes with 3 different mount systems.



              In the photo it is on the pod but you can't see it too well. It can also be turned around so that it sticks out from the pod instead of running along the pod.

                FOG.... is it Gen 1 or Gen 2??? If I recall its' Gen 1...

                On either of them take the spring and compress it to a tube and take a sharpie and draw a single line the length of it top to bottom. That will allow you to count your winds....

                On the Gen 1's just try different twists... it depends on the height of your ball stack to your feed as to how had to push as well as how good your paint is. Try to never let it load from the pod to the gun with the hose empty. Most of the time you'll break one when the lead one slams to a stop in the breech. Hand feed some balls into the tube to fill it before putting the pod into the socket.

                I'll post more as I think of them....

                    This is real important. Additionally it gives you a few more rounds.

                      Forward facing is the only way to go. Cuts reload time in half or better.

                        Warwitch, how did you do that, did you use a warp mount with the upgrade mount?
                        Il n'y a point de sots si incommodes que ceux qui ont de l'esprit.

                            Um, should be able to send it to the manufacturer and get another on their warrenty. But I would choose to go after the seller about it.

                            I have played all day with mine and had absolutely no problems. Hopefully you can get the other one running right.

                              Yep. Works like a DREAM! Plays as tight as a high school prom date.
