The new Q loader

[A.B]

nice for a bresh of fresh air to enter the market, cant see sp backdating a patent for this one.

i agree it is fugly and does need to at least match the 140 pots now used, tho i feel if you were mounting this under the barrel or as a foregrip you're gun would get quite nose heavy. looking forward to seeing how this develops. still not tempted to change my halo tho

needs a higher capacity, then il look into it, like the profile though

Tourney Legal ?

As I recall, there has to be a gravity fed bit on you loading device making this thing NPPL/MIL illegal?

 

[Ben Frain]

Eh? What about the warp feed?

 

[ericostani]

whatever is stuck on the end of your warp, be it an egg/halo/revi etc. it is essentially gravity fed, 'cos the paint has to fall by gravity into the bit which pushes the paint into the gun.
With the new q loader its all under pressure being forced in.

 

[Ben Frain]

Yes, but the warp then defies gravity as it takes the balls to the marker?

Err Halo's???

yer, but the paint in the 'bulk' bit of the halo, has to fall into the propeller - or whatever its called, by gravity, to be pushed out of the halo into the warp feed.
does that make sense?

the q loader has essentially got a 104 ball stack

 

[Ben Frain]

Eh? Surely the point is that when balls enter the breech of a marker from a warpfeed they arrive there against gravity? It is irrelevant how they got into the warp to begin with...

The Qloader defies gravity directly (as opposed to the Halo which in most instances is giving gravity a helping hand by pushing in the same direction as gravity) just like the warp does, just allegedly defies it quicker!

 

[RoryM]

Yes

The ruling is that the the loader is a gravity based system, i.e, balls falling into a loading mechanism.

Therefore the warp is an addition the to gravity feed loader, not a loader in it's own right, like the Q.

This tho looks very similar to manike's underbarrel loader from about 4 yrs ago!

Care to comment Simon????
(or are you already at the can't possibly comment at this time satge!)
