X7 problems?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey, ive taken the next step and desided to buy my own paintballing gear. Ive got myself a Tippman X7, the Hammerhead Straightling barrel and a 3000psi air unit and the vents avatar goggles!

A day before my gun was due to arrive i had a phone call from the shop i ordered it from offering me a BT-4 instead as they were getting a load of complaints about the X7 cyclone feed system chopping the balls.

I turned down the offer for the BT-4 instead as i wasnt sure if they were just bull**edited**ting to try and shift stock so i recieved my x7 yesterday. I havnt had the chance to use it yet so i was just woundering is the stuff about the x7 cylcone constantly chopping 1 in 5balls true!? or is this false!?

If it is true is it possible to remove the cyclone on the gun altogether and fit a normal hopper adapter and use a hopper with a cyclone in it like a halo?

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks

	It's BS, I know plenty of people that own X7's and they do not chop. My A5's had Cyclones and I also had one on my 98C. None had issues.
