my friend said on some guns, if u get a fast gun, you will need a electronic hopper, because it makes your balls go down faster, and he also said if you get a fast gun and use Co2, you will chop balls more than with a nitro tank, is all of this true, and i have one more question what is a sticky and why do people say unsticky sticky, i dont understand? ------------- wes |

ya for most high end guns you will need a eletric hopper to get the full effect of the gun. For a faster gun it is better to have HPA cuase with c02 the gun will freeze and it is bad for most High end guns. Sticky is when you make a topic their is a option that leaves the thread at the top of the page. Only important things are supposed to be stickyed. If some1 stickys a question or something thats not very important they will say unsticky. -------------

You need an electronic hopper on any gun that can exceed a gravity feed hopper's speed (around 6bps). This includes most if not all high end guns. If your gun shoots faster than the hopper can feed, the gun will chop, or dryfire. And most, if not all, high end guns are not good on co2 and require HPA. This is because these guns are just better and need a consistant, clean airsource. -------------

| Some great electronic hoppers are HALOS and Eggs. Also Revvy's are good. With a gravity feed you have to shake the gun your self to get it to feed faster. An agitated hoper replicated this with a paddle or other mechanisms to get the paintballs moving around. |

^^Well the Empire reloader B is about $50 more than the Halo. The Egg2 is a good loader, especially with the z-board. ------------- Team Salem, Kuwait 08 |
