    AGD hopper

    Mr. Kaye,
    Please make a hopper. Everything else out there is crap. I "used" an evlutionII until today. The shell broke, the lid broke, and the battery door. Oh, and it wouldnt feed constantly with 9.21 volt batteries.

        They should just integrate a sleek, fast feeding hopper into the warpfeed.

          I third that motion. AGD would only make a quality loader ... 15 - 20 at a time.

              brilliant idea.


              if i had cash flowing i would buy one in an instant.


              Almost like the tippmann cyclone feed. avoid something real bulky, and it just lower it some. A whole new system that feeds on and angle and what not.

              Hoppers are like 6" off markers now? never really measured it. Take like 4" from there. and you are good to go.

              I guess that is the point of the q-loader though. and that does look promising.

                  I agree. We have these wonderful amazingly fast guns on the market right now, that can go what, 30 cps, and *most* of them are reliable, and then look at our hoppers. We got the good ol' revy, you cant go wrong with that, no problems except an occasional shell crack, and its slow. Then you have the HALO, which is amazingly heavy (go ahead and say I have girly arms, I already know that.) and jams often and has like 10000 batteries. Then you have the Eggy2, which is ugly, unbalenced, and has alot of horror stories out there about cracking shells and lids ect.
                  Then there is the Apache, which looks promising. I havent tried one though, and dont plan on it. (due to the fact that the warp-rev combo is the best IMO)
                  The Q Loader, even though the prices have gone down still, the price for a pod is like $25.. Thats really expensive. Not to mention the limited carrying capacity.
                  And then you have the warp feed and revy combo, which, IMO is the best option out there right now. You get speed, low profile, and reliability all at once. Cant go wrong with it.
                  However then some people start whining about how the warp is heavy and bulky, and obviousally they have never picked one up before.

                  Anyway, my point is, AGD could get some publicity if they could create a loader that could top the HALO in speed, and the revy in reliability. Ah, and it would have to look good too :)

                  Just add hype. :)

                    q-loader just look likes a pain to me for loading.

                    When you are in a a tournament or just have a field that has quick turnaround games, you dont wanna spend every second off the field filling up pods. i guess you could get extra pods to fill so you can be ready. btu that will cost ya 25 bucks :]

                    looks like a great idea, just espensive

                    somthing else should be done

                        Actually if they used belt that would bend sideways like the conveyor belts at an airport on the baggage claim you could have that running along the front of a hopper. This way the warp feed would be more economical, and wouldnt have to feed throught a small tube via a normal hopper. You could have a slot that opens to the warp belt about 4-5 paintballs long. This way you would have a complete warp system, completely free from the hassles of non-AGD products.

                              my xmag would be truly complete if agd made a hopper to go with all the other agd parts on it...

                              toms a busy man though, so i dont think its all that necessary
