i have to idea's for a feed neck. ok some of the guns are hevey at the back right. and some guns use elbows.why dont we make the neck face to the front not the side. 2. a way to hold 400 balls ok some guns have elbows and the neck go's to the side right like the tippmann guns. well why dont u but another one on the other side and put a block there. and wan the other hopper is empty you can take out the block in the feed neck and the balls will go in the gun. so you will not have to cary alot of balls with you.

because you would get destroyed in the hopper everytime you play.

That would be a big profiler, most people are trying to make themselves a harder target to shoot. Except for VL who came out with a 300rd hopper.

Again with the disagreement. Again with the reminder that I'm not persecuting you, and that I really hate it when people take offense to things that aren't meant to be offensive.

You will be hit on the hopper more at a distance than from up close. This is because soft targets (bodies) bounce more at farther ranges, and so people aim for heads, and the hoppers nearby, since goggles/plastic/metal break paint much more effectively than shoulders and arms do.

And you wouldn't blow anyone away; you'd still be limited to the firing rate of your gun.

This idea would:

A. Add weight
B. Make a bigger target
C: Reduce number of load times
D: Allow a person to carry more paint.

It's an interesting idea (they used a similar concept on the later generation Gatling guns), but not likely to increase performance very much, if at all.

This is why people carry pods on harnesses: Bigger hoppers would have gotten TOO big. Going to 200 round hoppers was considered a dumb move by a lot of people when they came out. Now we accept them, but at the cost of hopper hits (as compared to stock class).
