hopper question, i cant decide

[Potter]

sup folks, my first day on the forums....heres my dillema. i have a 02 cocker wit hthe works. 1st gen 114ci, 3000psi max flo nitro system, eclipse bolt, valve, ram and qevs. orracle tickler reg, anx valve expansion chamber, custom black block and a nice freak barrel to top it off. but i have some cash, and i want to get a better hopper. i've narrowed it down tow 2. should i go halo b, or the egg. i'm a backplayer, so i need to get rid of paint fast. what do you think?

[xTHROWDOWNx]

i dont really trust the egg. the halo b is very evenly distributed weight wise, plus u get get that supercharging system thats out if u want it faster. i jsut think its a plain better quality hopper then the egg. the neck on the egg cracks. and thats not what a back player needs. the halo should suit you well. it fits what i do. i play mid, and i like the fact that i can drasticly tip the gun and i dont havto worry about if it doesnt feed. its great, peeking under bunkers and still shooting. i love my halo b, a rip drive is a good accesory if ure batteries die :]

ok your wrong in a few aspecs instead of flaming im gona show you where..


1.) the Halo is force feed...they keep constant presure one a stank of ablls and forces them down the neeck....yay ..duh....and hte Egg is not forefeed it index the bals in a cup and gently pushs them down the feedneck anfter that its gravity.....that means mostly inconsistant rates of feed simular to the REvvy only since the balls are indexed the inconstatcy is usally in the teens...where the Halo and Empire Reloader B are always consistant when setup properly

2.) the strength......the halo is a dureable hopper commpared to others out there....the eggy is also known for its weak shells......you would see some eggys with tape wrapped around them....thats because the battery door seems to fall off or brack off so they tape it on there. I have also played a game with a Eggy owner when his eggy got shot and broke ... this is of course a recgame so mught of been a chance of high velocitys but their should never be a case where a hopper breaks from paintball impact....never

3.) pure speed flat out.....the halo is faster even witha z booarded eggy feeding the surpossly 23 bps

ok debate from here

[xTHROWDOWNx]

well put. and i wont debate. you backed everything up with facts

tahnk you

[spammer]

bullsh^t i have an egg and it is just as fast i bet... and i can turn my gun to the side..all i had to do is shave it down..to fit my imagine? but otherwise I LOVE IT!!!

and it is durable!!....my lid broke once!!

[warboy]

look at the facts the egg can only go as fast as a halo B when you buy the upgrade board. I also know a hopper that feeds faster than both. Go to Qloader.com .

[spydertlxmuzzle]

well i think the egg is faster(dont flame me if im wrong) but not as durable. i know your back but if you plan on diving some or anything of that sort get the halo b the neck is alot sturdier. of course it may cost more money but think about the saved money if your egg neck broke.

[thevoiceinurhd]

Halo is faster

[warboy]

Q-loader is faster(31bps is what official site says ,watch the movie, Specialopspaintball.com says 30bps+, go to loaders and pick motorized, it says 500 rd system but it's the same) while the Halo B only goes 22+( look at Actionvillage.com, go to loaders and accesories pick loaders then pick motorized and then pick odysy I spelled it wrong but you know what I mean and pick any of the Halo bs says 22+BPS oh and did I forget to mention that the 200 rd version is only $80. :D BOYAH ). So bite me!!! :angry:. And the Egg is as fast with the upgrade board so you are partially right Spydetlxmuzzle.

[warboy]

Yeah I just realized I posted the wrong site name for the Q-loader. Go to qloader.com(no hiphen) and watch the movie titled 31 BPS and then go to systems and look at the 200 rd system. Yeah thats right CHEAPER. Go ahead and argue more but look at the facts.l

[Smarty All American]

if ur neck broke on the egg it costs 6 bucks to get anew 1.dont dis the egg unless u have used 1.i agree with dyepaintlayer.your hopper wonst just break.u have to ce gay and chuck it.ive had mine for a few months and it works fine.
u failed to menchon tho that the q loader looks like it was shuved up someones butt. its the most retarted thing ive ever seen. it looks so gay

[thevoiceinurhd]

Yeah Q-loader feeds faster, But can you shoot 31 bps, on your tippman?
Q-loader isn't practicall because no one can shoot as fast as it can feed, it's over kill. You could always get a halo with a cheetah or victory board if you wanted to feed 30+bps. ALso the Halo looks better and the Q-laoder you have to install on your gun, it's time consuming if you have more than 1 gun. WIth the HAlo you just put it on and go, instead of installing it on whichever gun your using.

no it is not faster. its also proven by warpig.com and the egg is the weakest hopper on the market. ask a halo or even revvy users how many times there lids broke...hahaha

the egg cant even match the speed of the halo even with the new board...and the q-loader is not practacal/expensive. Come talk to me when you only have ten balls left...haha thought so....

ok tell me when you can pull 31 bps or even ramp that fast....and 2 pods when you plan on going 31 bps wont last you 2 mins not to mention that you wont be able to go pass 15 bps leagally adn that includes ramping in some tournys.Yea halos go 20 sum bps stock, put victory board in to replace stock one, they claim 35 bps....BOO YAA....not to mention the board TAG is about to release....so BITE ME !!! GERRR IM ANGRY

ok im not gonna spend 6 dollars god know how manny times to fix something that shouldnt happen. And i ahve a job, i bet this kid is 13 or so adn dont have money to replace a feedneck that shouldnt break. And tell that to my fellow teammate when his eggy got hit on the front/ side and broke, a big ol' hole in there. And yes the do just break on you. I'll upload a vid of a guy diving into the snake and his eggy jsut crushs on him...and yea the q-loader is ugly i give you that..lmfao......but paintball is not all about looks


ok im done now and if all of you jsut look at my first reply in this thread i wouldnt be correcting all of you darnnnit

[warboy]

I'm not saying to go 31 BPS whith the q-loader, I'm just saying there cheaper and are a better value. Especially when you put the cost of the boards in the Halo B to match/surpass the speed. Im also saying that theres a lower profile so that means no more hopper hits. plus you can add on pods while the Halo B is only 200 rds stock and upgraded. so if you would put the boards on the halo you would run out of balls very fast for the Halo .

[Cale336]

With the Q-Loader, unlike the other loaders, u cant shot while u reload tho? Cause u have to change the entire pod.

well for hte halo you dont need to buy specialized pods.....you could buy pods for 2.00...whas a q-pod again? oo yea WOULDNT WANT TO BREAK ONE....

also all you really need at all is jsut a halo wit z code...a rip kit is nice and a new board is just for show.....

and ya you could add on pods to the halo...lol the halo hoplds 200 compared to the 100 round q pod....eww....so if you need two pods to match...while we can jsut buy pods you need to order them online unless your store carrys them..

oo yea get back to me when you have like 5 balls left....again

Have you ever shot when you'r reloading?

And I was saying that reload is faster and you dont spill any balls while you do.
(This is still for the q-loader.) Plus You just buy a 4 tube hooper and then you have 5oo rds each of whitch you can reloade in about 1 or 2 seconds into your gun compared to 5 or 6.

yes actuallywhile reloding i do shot....i reloa with few balls left in the hopper and if if have to keep the players jgheads down shot a few times....its a very popular technique.....every seen players shot with their halo open? you know why now.....

think a 4 tube hopper is over 100 dollars....5 is 130...

tust me dude the halo is the better choice
