Curiously looking for a bigger one than the 200-250rd, but so far all I've come across is homemade ones made from PVC...post some links/pics if you mind.

A 450 round hopper. They also have a 330 round hopper if 450 seems too big.

just put one of those water jugs that you see in office building on top of the cyclone, should be good for 10,000 plus rounds

:eek:
How do you run such a thing? Does it need a two man squad - one to operate it, and another to dump cases of paint in it?? I think I could play for a year on the amount of paint that probably goes through.

But I've never liked the Quadzilla for three reasons:
That's a lot of weight to carry on one hand, even strapped up
That's a lot of Apex adjusting. I have enough trouble with one.
You can only shoot 180 rounds from each one before you have to reload... with four pods. That's about a two minute reload for a twelve second fire time.So you either go completely over-the-top and put a Tupperware on your head and run a hose to the cyclone, or you pop on a set of Allen Products football-hoppers.
I've always wanted a Warp fed marker from a Turtle Pack. But they don't make Turtle Packs anymore. :indif::bawling::irked:

I lol'd. Notice how the stock is folded in that pic, so I'm supporting the full weight of the marker, which is 15 pounds loaded, by the way.
EDIT: By the way, I do have both the 350-round AND the 450-round hoppers. I must say I like that 450-rounder much better for the simple fact that it feels a little better balanced and most of all a more snug, secure fit.

They guy who made it did so because he wanted to do something "over the top". Aside from that, he also made it with him self in mind. He has severe knee trouble so he can’t run/squat, go prone, etc. This is why he sticks to defending his base/flag. That’s where this thing comes in. He has someone there to keep his ammo supplied, and hes good to go. Id love to see anyone take the flag from him! ;)
This thing has the ability to hold well over a full case of paint, which is gravity fed through 4 separate 4" drier ducts to each gun's Cyclone. Reloading is as simple as dumping another box in the main tank which can happen in a matter of seconds, not minutes (if you have that support guy helping with ammo as you shoot, as he does).
