    Posted: 31 July 2007 at 9:30pm

I'm always annoyed with my Tippmann A-5 lid, when playing speed ball.  When i saw those Halo's hooper with quick lid, i though it was cool and convenient.  Since they don't sell a pop-on for A-5 lid, I decided to make one my self.  BTW, I used "silicone sealant" to glue the quick lid (that bad-boy, aint going no where). 

here are some pic's.

That's pretty neat. I don't think I've seen that on an A-5 before. Props.

I don't like speed feeds. They break easily and they don't hold paintballs in very well during diving and hard play. It's a nice concept, I just wish it was stronger and able to hold the balls in better.

If that happen to me, then i'll just add aluminum rod behind those plastic and seal them with silicone sealant.

Hate to break it to you, but APP has something like that.

Nice job though. Most new people who post in PB ideas just post random stupid crap.

^^^ Naw, he's saying most of the other ideas here are rediculous and stupid. Yours is actually a good idea, and as such, is a diamond in the rough...

For some reason, portions of the above statement filled me with the overwhelming urge to come up with a rude statement based on double entendre.  I guess the fact that I didn't proves that I'm less childish* than my wife keeps telling me I am.

*Only slightly.
