The Tippmann Hellhound tank has a 6,000 round "hopper", more like a storage tank

ehhh... thats a lil off the subject. they are talking about hoppers that u put on guns. well anyway i think i've heard of 300 round hoppers somewhere but come on, just get a pack and u can carry 1000 rounds on ur back if u want to.

yeah, UI know its off topic, but I just felt like contributing something nobody needed, so I cant get blamed for anything, cause nobody used my info (Alright, im a worthless excuse maker)

VL used to make VL3000 hoppers that were revvy's. They (obviously) held 300 balls. They probably stopped making them because they were so damn big...

Yes, they quit making the vl3000's years ago. I believe they were offered in the 18 volt as well. They stopped making them becuase of size, decreased sales, and problems with the design I believe.

Hey did you see that on Yahoo auction. I saw a item up for bid that had a posting like that. When I checked it was 400 hoppers. I think he just tried to describe the shape no that they can hold that many.

Technically the hellhound hopper isnt that off topic, TECHNICALLY, you can make it a very large backpack/target cuz it has 2 warpfeed type tubes to connect to ur gun

hey mage
i'm interested in those 32o gloves how much?


My friend has a hopper the size of a watermelon. He messed with a 12 inch pvc pipe and attached 12 vt revvie parts to it. Very sweet but it adds at least 15 pounds to the gun. He has estimated 475+ rounds

hey, is it possible to make your own hopper out of an old one, like; i dunno; flatten it out or shorten the neck? cause i want to eliminate the elbow, cause it makes the hopper stick out like a sore thumb.

I am sure everything is possible...and I have seen bored individuals make hoppers out of just about everything (there is a picture someplace of a hopper made of a carboard shoebox.....no joke. It had a motor and actually worked...). I would stick with the hoppers that are allready on the market....if a better system exisited (something simple enough for us layman to make) then I am sure some company would of marketed it by now.

If you want to get rid of the elbow, you could try at least reducing it with the angel feed thing. Heres a pic can't remeber what they are called.

That would work only if he had a vertical feed gun.

I think its called a low-rise...not 100% about that though.

my friend had that hopper..then sold it/traded for a warp and some money. they're worth alot now..like 110 atleast-what my pro said, so don't get on my *** if you think it's incorrect.

btw, that's my impulse and his cocker.
