Well I know pple that have used the q-loader on 98C's and they like em. The only complaint they have is that it takes longer to fill one up. But dont go buy one on what I've said. Edited by Justice |

Halo B: Really fast hopper. Yuo will never outshoot that with a 98c. It comes in cool colrs and operates like a regular hopper unlike the q-loader. I haven't heard any complaints about it. If, you find yourself outshooting it, idon't know how, there is an upgrade that will have it feeding at like 35bps called the Victory C\Board. Q-loader: Makes your profile shorter by moving the hopper from the top of the gun to any of many possible positions on your gun. Can feed faster than the Halo B but you don't need any faster than the Halo B for your 98 c. Also, I think it looks really cool. On the downside, the loaders dont run on disposable batteries but store power in themselves. They only store enough energy at one time for one full load of paintballs which, on the q-loader, is only 100 paintballs. Then you have to put an entire new q loader pod on. Thos are expensive by the way. |

Halo b: Regular hopper, feeds 22+ BPS stock. With v35
board, feeds 35 bps. Battery whore, some people had problems with
theirs catching onfire, but those where the earlier models.
Q loader: Cylindrical tube, uses spring opeartion *I think* and feeds around like 30 BPS or something. Doesnt take batteries, is a pain in the ass to fill and the tubes are expensive. Edited by Glassjaw |

This all depends opn speedball or in the woods. In speedball if your a backman then you might want to turn away beacuse it holds only a hundred rounds per pod and pods cost quite a bit. Frontmen might rather the q since it feeds 30+ bps and gives you a smaller target. Woods-I'd go for the q since you want to be stealthy here and the q doesnt have any ball rattle from what I hear and your pods won't either when you shoot the gun. Q pros-Smaller target, 30+bps, no batteries, noreal noise, if you only need to pods then it comes in a pack w/ the loader and silo and all that for 75 dollars. cons-100 rounds per pod, pods expensive Edited by Blue Hopper |

yes but the halo B is also heavy, and still have motor problems. yes the Q Loader does use a spring operated mechinism. I say go for a Evo2 (egg), with a Z board, or just stock Y board will be fine. Edited by cockerkilla99 |

Halo B=batteries needed to operate=woodsball and speedball Qloader=no batteries needed to operate=woodsball And I'll be damned if someone tries to use a Qloader in a tourny! |

The q-loader pods are very agravating to fill and only hold 100 balls. The Halo feeds just as fast. You will never out shoot either with your 98c. If you want something very profile get the halo with a warp. I would hate to have a q loader on my gun but thats just me.

I'd like to add that q-loaders are hideous. Halo's also look funny. I really suggest just going for an Eggy (EVO) since you won't be outshooting the eggy, and you won't come anywhere near the Halo. save the money and get the eggy.

Eggos look goofy - I'll take a HALO over an Eggo any day... On the Q - Qs are kind of like cockers. You don't have to be a genius to figure it out, but they aren't for the plug-and-play crowd. They require a minimum willingness to figure out things work and a minimum of willingness to tinker. If that isn't you, don't get a Q. |

Good luck to you if you think you can cover the qpod and make it look like an M203, you would be havin one helluva of time jus replacing each qpod when it becomes empty during a firefight.
