It's spring loaded if that helps any. You have to wind it up to load it. I don't know too much about them either, but those are the basics.

All I know is that its expensive and that if one of the pods breaks you have to pay alot of money to replace it.

Replacement pods are only about $20 from the company. The most annoying part of the Q Loader (for me) is that the pod filling equipment is extra stuff I have to haul around.

Basically a corkscrew that unwinds, and as it does so it feeds the paint in. The paint mirrors the corkscrew (ie, the paint in the hopper is situated in a corkscrew shape) and as you shoot, the spring force on the "corkscrew" forces another ball into the chamber.

Ya, and 20 bucks is expensive for something you throw on the ground when it empty.

you do pick up your pods after a game...don't you?
i mean, yeah, it may be kinda pricey, but you'll use them over and over again...

i have a qloader system and the pods are alot more durable than your standard paintball pod so as long as you dont go stomping on them they should be fine
