Air America Apocalypse 2K Air System

air-america-apocalypse-2k-air-system.JPG

Now, this is a system you do want to get if you can spend that $350 asked for it. And it is totally worth that money, trust me. It’s one of the highly rated air systems on the market right now. If you have a gun that really eats air the Apocalypse 2K is your [...]

ACI Bulldog III Air System

aci-bulldog-iii-air-system.jpg

The ACI Bulldog III is not the most preferable air system out there. Many people find it very problematic and even dangerous sometimes. The good thing about it is that it’s not a CO2. It’s also at pretty good price considering the rest of the choice. I don’t know if I can put small in [...]

Zap Mach 404

zap-mach-404.jpg

The Zap Mach 404 is an agitated hopper that works on sound activation. I would really recommend it for rec or entry level tourney players. It’s not the fastest one out there, but you can get it up to 12pbs. It’s also pretty light, very easy to maintain and clean. The best thing in it [...]

Viewloader VLocity Paintball Loader

viewloader-vlocity-paintball-loader.JPG

The Viewloader VLocity Loader will be the last one of the Viewloader saga, but what and end it is. This is one highly appreciated loader. People just seem to love it. It is extremely light (probably the lightest of all the electronic loaders out there), it’s big (in the good way as it holds 200 [...]

Viewloader VLocity Jr.

viewloader-vlocity-jr.JPG

This loader is actually pretty nice looking one. But yet again the looks are not that important, right? When it comes to performance, the VLocity Jr. is just as good as it looks. It’s one well appreciated loader and players always rate it very high. There’s a reason for that of course – the thingy [...]

Viewloader VL Eye Force

viewloader-vl-eye-force.jpg

The VL Eye Force can’t really charm you with its looks, but compensates that really well with performance. The thing is fast (at least fast enough for many of the players out there). It absolutely gets the advertized 20 bps. It holds up to 200 balls, but as with many others you may not want [...]

Viewloader VL 200

viewloader-vl-200.jpg

The VL 200 is the cheap baby of the Viewloader Company. You can get the thingy for no more than $8, but I think even if it was pricier it would still be worthy. Now, you realize that speed is not something to be expected from an $8 hopper, and that’s exactly the case. You [...]

Viewloader Viewloader XSV Vlocity Paintball Loader

viewloader-viewloader-xsv-vlocity-paintball-loader.jpg

The Viewloader XSV Vlocity loader is pretty much what we can call the biggest disappointment from the Viewloader Company. With the listed features below you should expect it to be one of the best loaders out there. 27 bps (the correct rate btw), 180 ball capacity, light, silent and coming with batteries and chargers included. [...]

Tippmann Triumph SSL-200

tippmann-triumph-ssl-200.jpg

So from the two Tippmann loaders I’m showing you this really is the better loader to get. And yes, they may look alike but the difference is quite significant. First of all the rate of fire here jumps to 15 bps compared to the almost 10 for the AL-200. Also the thing has the Bend [...]

Tippmann Triumph AL-200

tippmann-triumph-al-200.jpg

The Triumph AL-200 will be the first out of the two Tippmann loaders to be reviewed. The AL-200 is the cheaper and as it usually is with loaders and hoppers, the worse one out of the two. But it still has something to show, so I thought it would be a mistake to skip it. [...]

Viewloader Tripod

viewloader-tripod.JPG

So the Tripod looks like a normal Viewloader hopper and it’s pretty much what it is. There’s one thing special in it though – the loader itself comes with a 200 count pod, but in addition to that you may also get 140 count and 300 count pods and change them whenever you decide. A [...]

Viewloader Revolution Force Loader

viewloader-revolution-force-loader.JPG

So the next one out of the Viewloader family is the Revolution Force Loader. Believe it or not this thing has some qualities you should know about even though you may think it’s a cheap piece of technology. So for those $30 you’ll have to pay for it you do get the promised 18 bps. [...]

Viewloader Quantum

viewloader-quantum.JPG

So the Quantum is pretty much the disappointment in the Viewloader family. The thingy comes cheap – around $30 – but sometimes cheap is so not enough to attract people to get it. So when it comes to performance the Quantum is a full disappointment. First of it feeds the miserable 8bps (for a $30 [...]

Viewloader Eye-force

viewloader-eye-force.jpg

So if you’re not too keen on the egg shape of the other Viewloader loaders this may be the solution for you. The Eye-Force not only looks different it also differs in performance – both in a good and in a bad way. The thing is capable of holding about 200 balls which is pretty [...]

Viewloader eVLution II

viewloader-evlution-ii.jpg

I’m sure you’ve guessed already that this is the bigger brother of the eVLution 3. Fact is that the two don’t differ that much from each other (design and performance), but yet again the eVLution 3 is newer and slightly upgraded. If you have to choose between the two of them I say go for [...]

Viewloader eVLution 3

viewloader-evlution-3.JPG

There’s quite a collection of Viewloaders we’re about to review, but I thought it’s gonna be nice to start with probably the best of it. The eVLution 3 is one of the Viewloader’s highly rated markers and there’s a reason for that. It’s not that it’s the most technologically advanced marker out there, but it’s [...]

Turbo Paintball Active Response Feeder

turbo-paintball-active-response-feeder.JPG

This is a hopper for anyone that doesn’t like using batteries or electronics. It’s one very light hopper that can hold a fair amount of paint – 200+ balls. It’s also pretty cheap as it costs around $35. And that’s pretty much all the good things we can say about it. From here all the [...]

Torque Loader

torque-loader.JPG

Even though it’s new the Torque is one really high rated loader. People seem to like it very much and trust its performance and reliability. Just like given in the description below the loader is extremely light and durable one. Its screw-less design helps a lot with cleaning the thing, because there are no screw [...]

Ricochet 2K Ricochet-2k Hopper

ricochet-ak.jpg

The last of the Ricochet series is the Ricochet 2K. The thing is somewhat a good hopper and if you’re running a semi marker, this is the loader for you. It’s capable of around 12 bps which is pretty much the rate of all the Ricochets reviewed. It has the same design and we already [...]

Ricochet 2K Ricochet G2K

ricochet-g2k-paintball-loader.jpg

The G2K is a gravity fed hopper, but one that people like very much. It is very strongly made and although it doesn’t look awesome (that’s my own personal opinion) at least it does the work it’s supposed to.  It too have the specific Ricochet shape and although it’s not always of a help there [...]
