This thing is pretty nifty. I'm outfitting it to an E-mag so for all of you out there thinking of picking one up consider the following:
1) Go ahead and plan a trip to the hardware store to find some type of bracket for the battery if you plan to mount horizontally. The kit includes three that obviously are intended for expansion chambers and the like, which is good news for the RT owners among us. (con)
2) It's not exactly gentle on paint. The more brittle blends may not be an option. And if you do chop inside the pods, you're finished. It goops up the feed neck and blocks the paint from being pushed into the breech. But, of course, this is no different with any of the conventional hoppers. (con)
3) You will NEVER outshoot this loader. It empties a 100 rd pod in about a second and a half. It appears to be very well built and mounts firmly. (pro)
4) Pretty light and very out of the way. (pro)
I haven't field tested the unit yet and will keep everyone who's interested well informed. My first impression is a good one, though. The "wwhoooosh" sound that you hear when you mount the first pod and the balls quickly occupy the hose and feed neck is VERY desirable! Fine tuning of the hose length is necessary so that a "whole" number of balls occupy the feed system from the pod hatch to the bolt. This is to reduce moving and shaking. This is the only adjustments necessary.
If I can talk someone into hosting some pics I'll get those up tomorrow.
