I believe it holds the hopper on so that you dont have to worry about it flying off when diving or running....am i correct?

well, haven't you ever lost a hopper when you dove or something? I've never used an A-5, but the 98c does a pretty good job of holding the hopper on.  I think it would be useful on a spyder, they are prone to hoppers falling off.

Some hoppers are just a bit small even with the screw all the way tight.  I had to use tape to hold on an egg once because it wouldn't stay on my 98C, and yes the screw was as tight as it would go.

Well if his feed neck is anything like mine, it doesn’t tighten enough to hold a full hopper on to the gun while you are diving for a bunker, I have to use duct tape.
