OK I like many other Tippmann owners have been botherd by hopper wobble, My fix came to mind about a year and a half ago. One day I was playin and one of the pins feel out of my elbow and it made a lot of noise so I grabed my plyers and pulled out the other pin then took a long roofing nail and shoved it in there and it never ever wobbles now. Thought It might help someone out.

It works better if you put a small o-ring around each individual pin holder on the elbow. |

I personally use the O-Ring mod, especially now since I only use one pin, due to the new milling I did, where I cut off the second whole for the elbow on the body.
But your idea sounds good too.
