    Manufacturing has nothing to do with it really. It's just simplicity and price.

    The Warp requires a hopper so it's extra weight, batteries, and money. I tried using a warp a while ago and found it to be too much of a pain.

    The Q-Loader pods are expensive and only hold 100 rounds. I've also seen them blend paint when the paint is not perfectly round or too brittle.

      Just to pedantic:

      Complex > difficult to manufacture > higher price.

        Now since I normally prefer to play stock class, I am not a huge fan of hoppers. But I admit that I believe that standard hoppers are definitely better than warps or qloaders. The Halo/ReloaderB were a little bulky but got the job done. I just picked up a VLocity today and that thing RIPS! I'm actually fairly confident it is about as light as my 12v as well. Has a very beefy neck, simple programming, and is overall a well built unit. I can't wait to pop that thing on and shoot my proto like it was meant to be used.

          "the halo b has a chip for $25 that can make the halo shoot 35 bps. that is exactly how many bps a qloader can shoot. I did the math for a halo b hopper." -from Pbreview.com

          LOL... That chip is SUCH hype... The qloader feeds over 100 bps off gun, and as fast as the gun cycles on-gun(which has only been tested to 34, thats what he's referring to).

          And that chip(victory board) even just unloading the halo won't get it to 35 bps...

          Geeze... the utter crap coming out of people's mouths these days...
          you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

            Where did you pull that from?

            I was talking about simple to use. I'm sure it's no harder to make a Warp than to make a Revy. You need 2 shells, the paddle/wheel, and the board. Then there's some other little things and you put it together.

              You said it's all about simplicity and price. NOTHING to do with manufacturing.

              I just pointed out that the complexity of the Q and Warp add to their cost. So, ipso facto, manufacturing DOES have something to do with it.

              The warp is far more complex to manufacture. Both to make the parts (plus there are more parts) and to assemble.

                  I think you're simplifying it far too much. The Qloader is great, but certainly not perfect for every use. As a frontman, it's the perfect loader. But for playing back, a regular hopper is better. So nothing is the BEST for every single application. For each different style of play and the facets within each, different options are better than others.
