Sweet, thanks manike! My brother has a dremel tool so I'm going to give that a shot on my powerfeed. Are there any disadvantages you've found to cutting the powerfeed down? I can't think of any unless it would be having less paintballs stacked and ready to go into the chamber. Of course, if you have a good loader like the HALO I'm looking at, then I wouldn't have to worry about that I guess.

Does anybody know what's up with the whole "HALO sensor won't read paintball shells that are black or half black" thing? Is that true or just crazy talk?

the freak may be the original multiple ID barrel system, and there are new ones that may be better with tighter tolerances, et. the reason i will always use a freak (at least of all the barrels out now) is because i only need one back. take the new evil pipe system for example. i have heard great stuff about it. but i would need 5 sets of backs for each marker i own. right now i only need 1 back for each marker...the tips and inserts are interchangeable. this saves me alot of gelt. if you only have one marker it might be diffrent. but i like not having to own tons of backs for each gun.

Dre, I wouldn't be cutting down the powerfeed for use with any other loader than a Halo B Although you can get away with it with other loaders if you have level 10 to avoid the chops...

Oh, I see what your saying.

I'd say a threesome is in order, the blonde (LX) and call up the old girlfriend if the 48/3k isn't doing you well... and if things are going good get the blonde and the foreign chick (warp feed)...although if I were you I'd try to get your hands on a foreign chick beforehand, some people just don't like how they handle. Uh this is sounding kind of weird, so let me say this in plain english try out a warp if you can. LX is a must, even though you've only chopped a few balls the LX will prevent potential chops and save you from squeegieing your barrel.

I got what you were saying, thanks for the input!


I think what I'm going to do is go down to our proshop here and see if I can check out a HALO on my RT and see what that looks/feels like. I'd also like to check out a Warp on a gun there, and hopefully I'll be able too. I don't know though...it's Warped Sportz KC so they generally don't tend to have much AGD stuff set up. They sell Mags, and the Warp, they just may not have one on a gun. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get the LX first off, then figure out what I want to do about my loader situation. From what I've been able to dig up over in Tech, apparently LX works fine with the Hyperframe...especially if you've got an RT valve to power it, so I should be ok on that front.
