    Warpfeed... really that good?

    Hey all its me again... this one is once again self-explanitory. How much does it weigh is my biggest concern. Also, I know it makes the gun more compact, but is it well-balanced. Thanks.

    I have 1 on my '99 Shocker, it balances great. And the great thing of a warp on a Shocker, I DON'T NEED A GUN STAND!! It stands up on its own with a tank and stuff.

      My first time actually holding 1 this weekend was a great surprise. I thought they would be real heavy but after messing with 1 I found out you dont really even notice its there except you can feel the benefit of being more compact. I recommend them after SEAO II.

        It does throw off the balance a little bit, but here's how I look at it. I'm right-handed and shoot mostly out of the right side of a bunker. Because of this, I usually tilt the marker towards the bunker to try and keep my hopper behind it. With the Warp, the marker might not be perfectly balanced, but it does not change my shooting posture. I still hold the marker the same when I am shooting.

          Its really all personal preference, you kinda have to try one.

          However, there is a good chance you'll love it.

          They certainly do what they are supposed to, feed fast and best of all move your hopper.

          The balance issue isnt too noticable, although they do make your gun look messy and bulky.

          I dont use one, but i've played with one before and it was nice to be able to shoot with the gun at a severe tilt and still have balls feed.

          They are only $89 in the online store right now so nows the time to buy!

            They weigh slightly more than a revy, I loved mine when it worked (bad wiring job/ Revy breaking paint like crazy, stupid eye), try it to see if you like it. And it changed how i hold my gun, because i use it for a foregrip

              warp

              put it on and play with it... the warp itself will make you change your style of play somewhat due to its positioning. it can help me you a tighter player in some respects....ultimately, whatever your comfortable doing, go with it

                  Once you go warp you'll never go back!

                  Having the warp linked to a frame makes it much more addicting to use, so it's pretty much all about the setup you're using rather than just throwing it on and playing with it. different setups vary it's feel and performance!

                  I love mine, and honestly I see a lot of improvements in my style of play. It allows me to play more aggressive without being discouraged of getting hopper hits!!!

                    I use a warp, but don't buy into the benefit of no hopper hits. Now you're getting hit in the chest or mask where your hopper used to be! Sure, your hopper never gets hit, but..................

                      Well I love it! And I got Trina one(cause ahe was tired of hopper hits) and she loves it. What other loader allows you to shoot like this:

                      The gun is 1/8" of a game that is a FOOT long!

                        hey, thanks for yalls help. One more question... how does it look with a vert. feed body (like the TAC one)? I was gonna build a ULE mag, so I could buy the warp feed body, but I told my parents to hold up on that after learning about the TAC one. Let's just say if the T1 is gonna be around $450, that's where I'm headed. So yeah, anybody got pics of a warp with a vert feed?

                        Thanks

                        Jake

                        EDIT: better yet, I know how the powerfeed warp setup looks, and I like that... would there be anyway to retrofit a powerfeed to the T1 body?

                          You're looking at one. Trina's Spyder is a vert feed.

                          It's not as low profile as the warp body is, as you need to run the 90* adapter into the feedneck. But does it get the job done? Yes.

                            hey, thanks dayspring... didn't see that before I edited the other post. What do you mean by a 90* adapter? Does it work with a low-rise?

                              One end goes into the feed neck, one end gets the hose to the warp. (What this part is missing is a powerfeed plug. That directs the balls into the breech.)

                              And yes, it will work.
