    What the heck happened to Odyssey?

    I have a Halo B hopper with stripped screws. I was looking to see if this was covered under my warrenty (its less then a year old). I did a google search and it seems like Odyssey's site has turned into a paintball store?

    What's the deal? What should I do?

      Pretty sure NPS bought the patents for the Halo.

      Hence the lawsuit over the pulse.

        Those are the screws but the problem is actually unscrewing them without ruining the plastic case.

          I don't think it'll be covered under any warranty as stripped screws are most always the fault of the owner.

            I disagree. If I can unscrew all of the screws except for 3 there is obviously a problem with quality control.

              halo

              welcome to the cheap materials the Halo is built from.... if they still did events, you could probably get it fixed there, as all they did all day was fix broken shells and flash boards with new code.

              Now that the Halo is NPS property, get your wallet out.

                          Can someone please explain what you're all talking about?

                          Angry paintball said they'd service it but have to charge me. I could just get the new 3 screw hybrid shells from their site for $50 but does anyone know if it is worth it? I really don't feel like dumping more money into my hopper. ugh.

                            Sorry got off track about how much National Paintball suply who bought out Halo/Odysee have went down hill.

                            Are the screw heads stripped out on your Halo, or the nut itself is stuck on there and turning inside the body?


                            My suggestion would be to get a new set of shells for the halo from this guy. He has some nice ones, and is in the dealer secion - I got mine from him , and couldnt be happier

                            Own a store or field? Want to advertise sales, special offers, or events? Then this is the place! Note: Please read the rules.

                              The screw heads are stripped.

                              With the link you provided: are those the same weight/size as the Halo ones? Does it include hardware?
