    Posted: 19 December 2008 at 1:17am
The Zig-Zag System is basically a rectangular hopper that fits right into a "P90 model" of course it hasnt been created yet, but I have faith Tipmman might be interested in making this proto type. Basically the rectangular shaped hopper can fit into the P90 exactly like the real thing. So this advantage gives the user more speed, monuverability and the sliegt advantage of reloading. The paintballs inside the magazine is in a zig zag formation all the balls are set in a line and in order. This allows the advantage of more paintballs to be stored in one magazine. The feeder is simply built in the marker. Id like to explain more but its hard to explain it at all. I have already created a layout sheet of what the interrior of the magazine should look like. If you are still interested I can post up a the layout. However if you claim it is impossible to construct then I guess Ill have to keep on dreaming. Ive already approached BT but are unwilling to fund or use my ideas I find it a pity b/c I believe this will, very well be an attractive gun. My designs are complex but are however, not imposible. Ill post my designs If people show certain interests. That said, please, please! add on comments and questions it will make it all that better to improve the flaws in my designs.

You obviously put a lot of thought into this, and that's great.
I'm personally not keen on the idea of mag hoppers unless it's
a pistol. Good luck with it pharrell.

try to ignore the rando above, keep trying.

I had a similar idea ,but I was unable to get it to work. If you could get one
working I might be interested in building a marker around your design.
THE END IS COMNG!!! AND IT WILL BE UNTIL IT GETS HERE!!!!

You should post the design because I fail to see how a zig zag design would really work.

haha what did it say before?

and yes i want to see what it looks like, though if it's
really good you should probably get a patent and then
sell it to them. Or just make it yourself and don't put
the plans on the internet for anyone to copy. have you
seen the B5 bullpups yet?
