    Hopper opinions please

    Okay, I have finally decided that I need to get a motorized hopper, but I'm not sure what to get. I'm going to tell all of you right now that a Warp is out of the question and not even a future possibility, so don't say because it will work well with a warp. I don't care if it will or not. The hoppers that are availible in my area are
    1) Revolution 9V
    2) Ricochet 9V
    3) Zap 404 9V

    Now I know it's not much of a choice, but if you had to decide between the 3 of these which would you choose?

      9V revvy. With the addition of a X-Board and the new paddles, you have a hopper identical to the current 12V

        go with the 9V. you can upgrade it later with the X-board or turborev, which will turn it into a 12V.

                  Out of your choices I would go with the Ric.

                  But I would look at a cheap used revy and get a turborev board and impellar.

                      If you are truly stuck with 9v, get the Rico. The 9v Revvy is just not fast/sure enough for a 'Mag.

                      I can't imagine why no Pball store near you has any 12v Revvy's though. If one becomes available, I would suggest getting it, instead of the Rico.

                        Get the 9v revvie then buy the 12v turbo upgrade with impeller.

                        Best hopper I've ever used.

                          I tried one out on a classic mag w/ p/f at a nearby store to me. Dry fired a few shots, and it just didn't feel right too me. The gun felt lopsided in weight, and aside from that it gave me a feeling of cramming my hand to the trigger.

                          The reason is the 2 stores that are in the area that sell exclusively pball stuff just bite.

                            umm i guess if u cant get a HALO or a 12v revvy with Xboard then i would rather have a Ric then a 9v revvy have u looked at any of the online stores like Paintballgear.com u can just order whever u want from them but if u can find a HALO get it its a little more weight then the revvy but mine has cause me no problems at all and it feeds very reliabley
