Should i get a warp? Pros + Cons?

[nate2k191]

I love the low profile the warp gives one of my mags, BUT, it makes it extremely hard to carry casually. The balance is waaaaay off. I cant play woods with my warp setup, as it is too heavy/alkward.

i love the low profile too. as for bieng off balance and not palying in the woods and such, you just have to hold your marker differently, like when i sprint i hold my marker so that the warp faces down or up and not to one side. and i hold it under the tank/warp now with my left hand instead of on my foregrip... i dont find it harder, or less comfortable.. its just different. and if its too heavy or your arm gets tired, just lift weights or play so much the gun gives ur arm a workout.

Does the warp hang of the side of your gun or is it mounted somehow?

There is a mounting bracket that goes on the bottum of your trigger frame, usually above your drop forward or asa. the bracket holds it very secure on the side of your gun.

I'll say this:

1: it works EXACTLY as advertised and pretty much flawlessly fed balls the entire time I used it

2: it seriously unbalances the gun, to the point that my thumb started to hurt during play (although I did have a VL3000 on it...)

3: not being able to switch hands really irritated me. (yes, I know, your not supposed to have to any longer, but when you are left handed and playing the right side of a bunker, you don't always want to shoot 9 shots, then hide while you press the little white button, then shoot 9 more shots, repeat...

4: I kept hitting the nose of my mask with the loader when I shouldered it to fire

technologically I love it.

practically, I couldn't wait to get it off my gun.

I have one and like it. Sometimes I play with it and other times I play with a Reloader B, depends on my mood. I say get it if you wanna try something different. A lot of people bash it w/o ever even using one. Once you play with it a few times it is as natural to play with as a normal center feed hopper set up, imo.

How much do u think a used smoke warp is here on AO?

[Little_Ho]

I have two

Hi there
I like the warpfeed because ist just nice. I have one setup to my Cocker and one to my mag. So it works great. The Cocker works with the Vibration sensor. The Mag is mod for Intellie feed. So i like it a lot.


See ya on the Field

Actaully, I have played with one. Perhaps I just can't adapt properly ??

try and find someone in your area who has one and see if you can try it out. Figure out all the pro/cons for you personally. As you can see, a con for me is a pro for the next guy. it's all about your style. I can't play with one, but I learned to play with my hopper behind the bunker. Re locating it completely throws me off my game.

From what i know is that i am the only one with even an automag around my local field.

[Beemer]

good one

Good post.

First time I played with it , it was like and that was preproduction Beta testing. I was like WTF. But then after a few hoppers it was like No more blimp on top like old school Clear line of site all over the top

Just think hopper off top. How much did you play with one. You do have to learn it some, just like you learned with hopper behind the bunker. Dont be its just hopper off top is new school and most are stuck in old school, follow the herd.

I think i am going to get the warp. So in the next week i will be looking for the following:

Black AM pf/wl body
Smoke warp feed w/ everything i will need to setup
Black 12v revolution w/ Xboard

[RTDynaflow]

Glad to hear!

I played with one for about 2 games. I kept geting hit on the warp. My biggest problem, the weight. Very irritating to run, as I play front. Secondly, when I run, if I go right, I shoulder right; If I go left, I shoulder left. It eliminated me playing left side. [side note: right is my weak side as well, so this didn't help] Which, I guess if I always played the same side, It wouldn't be an issue. However, I enjoy variety. If I played back, I would probably have one.

I do hope you enjoy it. Let us know what your feedback is on it!

Have you ever thought about a Q-loader? Low profile, not nearly as heavy as the warp (no batteries). doesn't affect your handedness either. I think there were some design or reliabiltiy errors early on and I think the company may even have dissolved, but the loader looked like it would be worth trying.

I really like mine. Since I'm tall it makes it really easy (and fun) to play the TOPS of bunkers. People keep trying to call me on blindfire because they can't see my mask right behind the gun (I actually sight either between the warp and the hopper - just over the powerfeed - or on the outside of the marker).

Reccomendations:

(1) If you're adventerous, or know somebody into RC cars, build yourself a 10.8 v rechargeable battery. I've done it and it's great, ever so much better than a 9v or bigcell (I've had both).

(2) If you're going to run a revvy find yourself one of the 6 pronged agitators (when I bought mine it was a modified evo1, now I think someone makes them specifically). It really helps the revvy keep up when you're playing the angles.
