Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

Not even close. The Q-Loader is the fastest thing available. It out performs modified Halo-B's and Vortex moded A5's. Its the only loader that I know of which is rated at 30+BPS. Thats 2x faster then a stock cyclone.

No, but rate of reload is. If you get a Q, get a bunch of pods and load them the night before.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

Hmm. Q-Hammer? Would have to be at least a 3 man team - Hammer Gunner (HG), Hammer Q-pod Changer (HQC) and q-pod loader (QL). Lets see, put q-pod mounts to rear of HG vest for HQC ease of reach and long hoses carry more paint too. Have all wear hammer or broadsword vests with max pod holders. QL either carries q-loader supplies with or reloads at central postion or protected area then runs refills out to position. All carry pistols or small marker slung as backup.

I think I've had waaay too much coffee today.

Check http://www.pepperball.com/le/products.asp

There are many police supply sites that sell them not just that one.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

The rate of reloading is faster if the pods are already filled. I know what you're saying about reloading the pods, but you can change Q-pods faster than dumping paint out of a normal pod. Also, I have seen where guys use a HALO or other fast loader instead of that giant loading thingy they give you. It looks to make loading the Q-pods faster and easier.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

if i were u and was wanting to try out the tac cap then i would, cuz its not a big loss if u dont like it, its very good for ambush snipers and players that arent always playing defense or using a ton of paint, but like i said u cant go wrong its only like 7 or 8 bucks.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

I was thinking about trying a tac cap, but didnt want to waste the money if i didnt like it. so what i did was take one of my extreme rage pods that the lid comes off, and it fit right over the cyclone. the pod was like a $1.50/ so i got a tac cap that holds 25 shots for 1.50. and i usually use it if i'm playin sniper position. however, i carry my ricchochet hopper with me in my pack as well.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

I bought a Tac Cap in July, and have been impressed ever since. I usually use it with a Spec Ops Aluminum Hopper Offset, and it allows you to use any sight you want, without worrying about the hopper getting in the way.

I cut mine down to 30 rounds; the offset brings the total to around 45 balls.

I also discovered something the other day: if you are using a red dot sight (which works via stereoscopic viewing), you CAN use a Tac Cap without an offset and you can "see through" the hopper. As only one eye is actually focused through the site, you kind of see a black blur, but you can easily make out your reticule AND your target. It is not overly effective for long range shots, but for close in play, it seems to be fine.

The Tac Cap does not guarantee that you will choose your shots better, it MAY help. It works for me, especially during long woodsball games when we shot conservatively.

It is a nice hopper, and every woodsballer should have one in their gear set.

Re: A5 TAC CAP Loader

i'd say it depends really, if you have 140 rd pods (biggest i know of) then no you probably dont want tac-cap, cuz u will be janglin around with a bunch of half-empty pods-not cool, maybe if you had some 50 rd. pods or at least thats what i'd do. and what are speed-pods??

Ive been thinking about getting the Spec Ops elbow. I know its designed to fit in angled to the right. How does it fit if you dont turn it so it angles back parrell to the marker

Thanks
