How long should a hopper last....?

[Ben Frain]

Yes, I used to have the old softer shelled revi - was virtually indestructible - wished I'd never sold it now!

i might be wrong but im pritty sure that ANYTHING you buy in the uk the manufacturer is duty bound to apply a 1 year warrantee.......may be wrong so somone correct me plz

Minimum warranty on a new product sold in the UK is 90 days

Side note on the whole revvy/neck crappness issue. I have been thru 3 revvy shells in the last few months due to then snapping at the neck. I dont play very roughly but they just seem to be failing misserably...sooo brittle.

BUT, this last sunday in training i went in pretty hard (unusual 4 me) into a teabag and heard a crack and my saww my hopper come off. I thought oh no.. not another one. I was using a team mates old style shell with my X-Board in, and unfortunatly (for me) the neck on the hopper hadnt broke, but instead the feed port threading had ripped out.

Fortunatly it has gone straight to planet for a new feed neck and the threads on the body to be re-cut. I await my marker back in the next couple of days in time for Wakefield on sunday. I have been bitching about the revis snapping but in this circumstance i would have rather the hopper had gone than the dammage occur to my marker. Thank heavans for Jack Wood being such a star and helping me out otherwise i could have seriously been up the creek.

well ive broken atleast a shell every prac. But i cant afford a halo or evo 2 plus there to heavy and big.
I would want to wait for the rico g-force or something.

I couldnt imagin spending 80+ for a hopper, 8 was bad enough
