What are you talking about. I asked a simple question. And some people didn't know how fast they loaded. So i asked a simple question. For people that didn't know how fast they loaded. Like me and im sure there are more. You need to pull the bug out of your ***

basketball, if your asking a question put it in the form of a question and use a ? at the end. It looks like your are saying they feed at differnt rates'. BTW they don't feed any differnt, they are the same loader just with differnt size shells.

didnt brass eagle sue oddessy for the design? And when are the frontman versions supposed to come out.....i want one

BE sued odessy for the HALO A because it used an eye to scence if there were no balls in the feed neck and VL(owned by BE now) patended useing an eye to make a hopper load. BE won and odessy stoped producing the HALO A, So now most hoppers are feed by sound, like the TSA(tilt SOUND activated).

I don't see the point of the backman. Except for when you fill the hopper completely, before the game, when do you ever pour more than a pod in there? It doesn't make sense. So you get an extra 50 shots before you need to pull out your first pod, but after that, there's no point, there will just be extra, empty space in the hopper. UNless they start making bigger pods, as well, I don't see the point.

BE did sue Odyssey. They settled.

The HALO B does not use sound to activate. It does not sense for the presence/absence of a paintball, but it looks for paintballs in motion.

Some back players carry 'footballs' onto the field. It's basically two pods attached together. It's for fast reloads at the beginning of the game.

If you have a bigger loader, you have more freedom in WHEN to reload.

the feed rate is right around 13 i believe, its on their site, so you can go look, not significantly different, i held one like a week ago and it just didn't feel right, it felt kinda cheap, i'm in love with the halo b but, IMO, the tsa isn't worth the money

Actually they settled out of court, and BE ended up with a healthy check from Odyssey. lol for all it matters.

How does it do that, anyway?? Because when you're out of paint, it still keeps "loading," until something is blocking the eye again (paintball, finger, etc).

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but how light is it compared to the revvy? I like my Halo B and if it is the same weight or lighter, pick one up as well.

There will actually be 4 different models of the tsa for sale. (Frontman LED, Backman LED, Frontman LCD, & Backman LCD). The LCD's (not for sale yet) have a lot of new features. 3-diffent motor settings: (High, Med, Low) can be set depending on the speed of the marker and the battery life desired. Bolt options: Open or Closed bolt can be set. In closed bolt the tsa compensates for the double motion in the marker only counting the firing motion. There is also a sensitivity setting: loader can be set on auto adjust or custom sensitivity. Motor duration: adjusts the duration the motor spins. Lastly there is a shot counter and a game timer.

holds

i belive it holds 220 for backman and like 170-175-180 soemthign like that for the front man

[ugabiged88]

The performance should be the same between these two guns(unless your gun is tilted), so the only reason to buy it would be reliability. The new Revolutions are horrible and always break. Also you have variety in how many paintballs the hopper holds, also a nice feature!

I will probably be buying one of these soon.
