Stealth Modded Hoppers

pretty neat. i really don't care how loud my marker is, but there is certainly a market for this.

Meh, I am normally shooting anyways so i can already be heard. If I am trying to be "stealthy" it is normally at the beginning of the insertion so my hopper is normally full.

thats a pretty neat idea for the night time play.

oh Borg-Tech, i remember him, yea that guy has a lot of cool things on his you tube page, the home made bi-pod is and the foam gun case are really good and usefull (and a few others).

but then again, if you make the stencles and offer "spec ops" some sort of a deal, it might work, anything "sniper" sells like crazy on there.

They're actually quite simple to make, but now that I have templates for the X7 and A5 hoppers and soon the R5, I figured what the hell, I'll cut a few patterns and try to sell 'em to players that don't want to hassle with purchasing and creating a pattern of their hoppers for themselves. All they have to do is apply, that's it. It was a pain to find just the right material that would suit ME and now I have a large amount of it. I'll probably do a vid like Borg-Tech to help with application for any that buy and to demonstrate how quiet it is. I'm very impressed with the mod. And for those that do not understand, this is for the element of surprise. Of course you're going to make hella noise when you shoot, BUT this is to help make sure YOU'RE the one that shoots FIRST. The element of surprise. I'm telling you, night play and indoor CQB, this will make a difference in regard to sound off your marker as you move.

I tell you what guys, I'm willing to cut 10 patterns, five A5 and five X7 patterns for any of you seriously interested in giving this a try. I'll even mail them to you for FREE! You don't pay me a cent, however it's not without a fee. Your fee will be a serious feedback about what you found to be strengths and/or weaknesses so it'll help me improve what I'm trying to create. I want them posted here, for all to see, either good or ill. So if your interested and can really take the time to thoroughly critique this proto-gear then post and I'll contact you. This may move to a different thread if I don't get enough hits, but post up anyway. I look forward to sending one of these to you.

I'll give it a shot Techie, I'll even break out the sound equipment and give it a full breakdown. You know, to make it all scientific and stuff.

alright then The Guy, what'll ya' be havin' an X7 or A5? PM me with the info and I'll have it cut up and out tomorrow.

Given the large number of gravity red hoppers out there, you should design one for the average gravity fed hopper.

Ok, all the A5 patterns have been cut. I have 2 patterns left to be applied and one(1) hopper that has the stealthTech Hopper Liner already installed. For anyone interested, I'll trade my A5(or X7) hopper with you so long as your's isn't beat to hell. However, I currently have the A5 and the X7 hoppers up on ebaY, so stand by if you're interested in securing the hopper and PM me to get first crack at it. Keep in mind that your trading with me helps, 'cause then I can do an 'Application" video.

I'm making the X7 patterns as well tonight and will be creating templates for the Ricochet R5 sometime next week, so those with that hopper can get in on the fun and try this out too. Have a good one guys, it's back to using my noodle.
