    What is that? (warpfeed)

    Ever since I started using a warpfeed on my minimag, it never ceases to amaze me at how dumbfounded other paintballers are when they see it.

    I think it most often gets confused for some type of "airfeed" because of the hose.

    The last 2 times I played, out of about 50 people total, only 1 had ever seen a warpfeed and he said he "saw it on the internet".

    Thus far it's worked great. My only issues have been forgetting to turn it on or forgetting to turn the Revy on that feeds it.

    So any other warp users out there that get a similar reaction when you show up with the warp? Or am I just with an over newbtastical group of players?

    Last time I played was the first time I used my warp, and I had similar reactions to yours. Most people ask what it is, and why would I want it. Loads of fun to play with it, though.

      I just rigged mine up yesterday and tried it out. Boss kept asking me "does it work", so started shooting, and sure enough it works like a charm. Can't wait to actually take it to a field and play with it.

        I don't use mine anymore but when I did, people would ask about it constantly.

          People thought my Mag was a PL shocker! My field is nothing but agg kids. I like to play with Mags and cockers just to throw them off.

          I also kinda want a warp feed just for the stares.

            Many moons ago, when Team Black Cell was still around, we played a tournament at Skirmish USA.

            Every gun of ours was warped, and that's what we became known for that day - people were constantly looking at them. And this was back in the AO hey-day.

              Had my warp mounted on my classic RT for a while at Picasso Lake's game in Feb. The few guy with mags and "old timers" recognized it. The new kids and some of the younger guys were confused to say the least. Several couldn't figure out how it was actually supposed to work.

                  I have yet to see one being used on any field that I have played at. Until recently, I was one of the few Mags that I ever saw. The past event, out of probably 3-400 people, I would guestimate there were maybe 10 in attendance. None warped. My brother runs a Qloader and gets similiar reactions.

                    Yeah, I get the same thing.

                    It's fun to go play with my brother who also has a warped mag. Soon a friend of ours will have one, so we can all go out warped. ;D

                      I get the same thing here with my classic that has a "no hose" Q-loader setup on it. I've played 3 diff fields since I moved here and all 3 days were a day full of points, whispers and "what the hell is that?" I love it.

                          ive never seen a warp feed or a qloader in person. I've played mostly at paintball charleston and the field near san diego.

                            I owned a qloader for a while, hated it. I saw a warp in person when I was about 12, and I thought it was the sickest thing in the world. I still think they are pretty cool, but not practical for every occasion. One day I will own one..

                              I've had the qloader and the warp and sold both. I couldn't stand the qloader and won't be looking back. I always have nagging doubts about selling the warp feed though. Sometimes I wish I still had it. Maybe I'll get another one someday.

                              What I would really like would be a single unit, mounted centerline under the gun box mag that was essentially hopper and warp all in a single unit. Something like Warwitch's TM-15 box mag but mounted to an automag would be nice. Awe gee. Now I really miss my warp.


                              I too would get the "what is that?" about the warp. It's an attention getter.
