ive been considering getting a new electronic hopper, but everytime i hear a good review about one i hear an equally bad review about the very same hopper. Right now im trying to decide between a Revvy 12v and a Halo TSA backman........ any help would be greatly appreciated thnx --- r4z3 ------------- My 98c -Psycho Ballistics Bullet Drop -Psycho Ballistics Rocket Cock -DOP Front Grip -Pure Energy 47ci 3000psi -Smart Parts Progressive 12" |

I just bought aa 12v Xboard revvy for my Viking as a backup, they're proven reliable hoppers and very cheap. I haven't used it much yet but I like it alot, my friend had a tsa backman and it the shells cracked so easily.
You can replace the prop inside with a JMJ one and its supposed to increase feed rate but that might just be another myth  -------------  http://solipsism.ath.cx - solipsism.ath.cx |

Dont get the TSA!! I had one and it was terrable, they advertise a faster feed rate but it doesn't feed near as fast as my friends revvy. The reason I said I had it is becuase the feed neck snaped and countpaintball was nice enough to let me send it back and get a new hopper. Trust me on this one get a revvy. |

How old was your friend's revvy because i hear that Brass Eagle now makes the revvy and the only good revvy's are the 1s made b4 brass eagle took over ------------- Signatures are **edited** |

I have a new revvy and its black/coarse plastic and it doesn't feel brittle at all, I thought the shells that cracked were the ones with a smooth finish. ------------- http://solipsism.ath.cx - solipsism.ath.cx |
