Wow Tom! You must be real good at undressing women with your eyes!

Seriously though, I look forward to what your mind comes up with next...

Finally the mystery is revealed! Now get to work on that AGd clothing and formal wear line.

To be fair to Manike yes he did come up with his system long before we did ours. We were interested in his system but felt it was infringing on the Tippman patent so we urged him to get a patent. To our surprize he did but we could not come to terms to produce it.

To go way back the very first force feed system we ever saw was developed in Florida by a friend of Ron Howell's. It was an air pressure feed and used a rolled up hose in a backpack to store the balls. Worked well in any position but used air and was bulky. Viewloader looked at producing it and actually made protos but could never get the bugs out.

There was a link posted on the Tinker's Guild for Manike's Uber-Loader...
if it works as well as he claims it will (which i believe) it'll feed faster than any marker can shoot right now...

The patent is fun reading too...
