this might be a stupid idea but if there was a remote line that was connected to a pod that somehow sucked up balls into the gun or hopper so you would never have to reload...... kinda stupid but it would be actually helpfull.

you would have to reload... your pod would eventually run out of paintballs, and you would have to create a vacume in the pod, hose, and hopper to suck the balls through it, to get somthing to do that would take up space in or on the hopper, and add wieght to it plus it would be kinda pricey

^^^Sounds like a good idea. You should build it and let us know how it works. Not to get off topic, but does the Q-loader have unique pods that fit into it, or do you use pods like those you carry in a pod harness?

i wouldnt know how to suck up the paintballs though. Maybe a 12 gram Co2, but that might not even be enough

you would have to get some kind of small vacum, and be able to carry it with batteries. and instead of having pods, make so you carry like a backpack full of paintballs

Could you blow them as easily as you could suck them? May be easier, may not. Just a thought.

probly not, cuz that would have to be put on the start of the tube, and you cant do that cuz then you couldnt get paintballs to go throught it

Be careful, that sounded kind of naughty! 

Seriously, I found a home made system that some guy had posted on his web site a few years ago.  He coiled a garden hose in a backpack and had it come out of the pack and over his shoulder to attach to the verticle feed on his marker.  He used a 20 oz CO2 attached to the opposite end of the hose to force feed the paintballs.  He claimed it held 1000 rounds and worked quite well.  I had my doubts for the following reasons:
  • I didn't think the paint could both be loose enough to move easily through the hose, yet a tight enough fit to prevent the CO2 from blowing past it and just venting through the marker barrel.
  • It seemed like that last ball in line would get really brittle from CO2 blowing on it.
  • That same ball would also have a lot of pressure on it.
  • The hose would be a real pain to squeegee out if a ball broke in it.
I did however, with some recent searching, find the following information:

  • http://www.warpig.com/paintball/tournament/zapam98/newprod/index.shtml#promag - Promag 600
  • http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6055975.html - Info from a patent related site

Id like to see the bolt create a vaccum and suck the next ball up/down.

Now that would be kinda cool. Not possible but cool.

Yeah. Paintball guns should have clips. That would be sweet! They have a pistol out that has a clip it like 259$ american. But yeah the clip would be sweet!
