    Got mine today, the pods were a lot bigger than I expected. Gonna have to modify my Flurry vest to fit em for when I play scenario ball.

    Tried it horizontally, got in the way of my drop (not a problem for most of you) and it felt too awkward to me. When my KAPP foregrip comes in, that problem will be solved.

    The way I load it by myself is I balance the pack on my shoulder and use my hands to hold and crank. It's hard at first, but I got it down now. Pod loading isn't near as fast as I hoped it would be, but once I get it down, it shouldn't be bad.

    Overall, I think it's a lot like a warp. It takes getting used to but is worth it in the end.

      I really like the qloader mounting paralell to the tank seems the best to be.

        But then you can't tuck your tank in. I dunno, I can't really imagine where I would put it.

          Most everyone is saying it is relaly tough to load by yourself. The video looks totoally opposite of that over @ the qloader site.

          On the other hand, I think the best place for it is under the barrel and parrallel to the barrel. It is out of the way and looks most comfortable

            I honestly liked J&C's idea bout doing this.



            Someone should look into making an adapter so you can mount the q loader thing straight into the ule body. Would cut down on most of the drawbacks. Its fairly ergonomical, use it as a sort of fore grip (warp body) and just twist pull and in that swift motion your half-way done reloading.

            Hmm...either a C clamp type bracket or (more radical idea) mill a slight grove into the main-body. And then get the proper sized c clamp that came with the q loader. Mod the pod adapter so it the ring can mound 90* to what it used to be... Having all those measurements precise... Could possible have it direct feed into the gun...no dead balls...

              good luck on the superman dives. also i dont get the point. you would run out of paint on a lane. and thats the only time you would ever come close to outshooting a halo. its kinda pointless in my opinion. and for as much as you spent on that u could have a nice haol b with all the goodies plus a new barrel kit and some other schtuff

                Heh, it's not for everybody. The final mount points and
                individual shooting styles are what'll determine whether
                you will like it or use it.

                I think of it this way, it's faster than a halo and
                mounts like a warp. I prefer firing in fast bursts as
                people make breaks.

                In terms of diving with it, it's a lot sturdier
                mounted than the feedneck of a Halo or Egg.

                    Actually J&C, I'm considering it for this weekend if I can't find a way to mount it near the tank :-)

                        You know, I actually emailed them a suggestion. They could just make an angel-threaded mount so it could screw into the ULE or angel. Done deal.

                        Not everyone plays the same way. Not everyone lanes, and not everyone performs superman dives. Or maybe I'm just weird, because I neither lane nor dive. I see the point of such a device. No batteries, low profile, fast loading speed. Currently there's no other product which fits in this category. You either go full up with a big loader on top, or on the side with warp, or you get a small unagitated loader like one of those toy 50 round loaders. There was NOTHING in between until now. It's called choice.

                        Definitely not on the A-Team.

                          I agree 100% :)

                          Q-loader will not be for everyone (only the sexy people), just as the Warp is not for everyone.

                          I you like it and can learn how to adapt it into your style of play, then you'll have the fastest loading system in paintball.

                          Also, I wonder the Q-loader's super fast feeding could eliminate chops with the LvL7 bolt (better efficiency)? Just have to remember not to stick your finger in the breech

                            i would agree that is 100% choice.

                            I got some quick questions to the users.

                            How easy is it to tell how many shots you have till refill?

                            How easy is it to preload the balls into the pods, before a game?



                            I didnt see this in the begining, so just wondering

                                not too bad. i do not think i could deal with pballs bouncing around under my barrel though. i still like jackandcokes idea of putting it on top where the loader would normally go.
