    Ricochet Apache

    Who has one of these loaders? Are you happy with it? What problems have you had?

    The Apache seems like a really good deal (and I kind of like how they look) I don't care if the whole "deflection engineering" works or not.
    I'm just interested in educated opinions.

      I love mine, and like I said in your other thread. It's lighter,looks better IMO, and is more than fast enough for most people. And ricochet's customer service is great. Here is a thread when I was looking for one.

      Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


      And it really does deflect some shots.

          never sued one, but some kid had one last time i played. the thing goes BEEP really loud every time you turn it on/off, and he kept turning it on right before the game started. half our team started sprinting towards their base, got about 5 feet, and was wondering why the game hadnt started yet. it pissed me off because i did that like 3 times over the course of the day... as far as how they actually work, i dunno, but i'd never get one purely because i hate the beeping.
          you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

            Only the LCD versions do that, and the beeping can be shut off, or just buy the LED version.(even cheaper)

              How well does the little "see through" window work when you need to see how many rounds are left in the hopper?
              I guess this question really only applies for the solid black Apache.

                it works, but myself, I don't pay any attention to it in a game. I just reload when I think I'm getting low and have a min to do so. Either that or I run out of paint, then I reload
