If you are going to do quick-release out of plastic like I did, to make it work better make an insert inside the release where the screw goes as you can see on picture. You can make one out of cell-phone car charger tip. This way the screw is no going to cut in plastic.

Re: X-7 Low Profile Hopper slightly modified///quick release

I know this question wasnt addressed to me but i thought i would help out....
The trigger is basically just cut out of a piece of plastic. I just bought some Events goggles and the base of packaging worked great as scrap plastic.

You are right. Basically any piece of hard plastic which is about 4 millimeters thick (mine is 4 mm) would work just fine. You just need to make an insert like I explained on this same page 3, just look above.
