!!Help I Have NO Idea!!Ricochet Apache

evilpimp1227 · 11-30-2006, 07:02 PM

Hi, would this hopper (Ricochet Apache) do good on a pimp. Hopper rated
17-19 bps. Pimp is rated at 25 bps and uncapped in eye off mode. I can only go 20bps. Is this hopper a good hopper? Or should I get an eggy w/z board?
I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

Uhm, well my friend had an apache and he hated how bulkey and big it was. I had an egg, and I hated it because of how stupid it looked and the door kept sliding down when i dove into the snake or something. But, IF these were the only two hoppers you can buy, I'd go wth the eggy. But get a halo later on

Youre best off with a true force feed loader, like a Halo B, Reloader B, VLocity or if you can afford/get one, a Pulse. You will get a much better performance with one of those, than an Eggy, zboarded or not, or an Apache. Just spend the extra 25-30 bucks and get a Halo, you'll be happy you did.

Get the Z boarded Egg over the Apache but a used Halo would be better than both.

halo, you can snag a New but slightly used in the BST for like 80 dollars.

I like eggy3s. If you low on cash get the eggy3, unless you play alot of woods. Then get the apache, you would never realize how helpfull the lcd is, with shot counter I can average how much paint i need to carry for the next game. But yea... the eggy3 works great... its really easy to look around, although it feels off balance, and looks retarded on your gun. I enjoy how it "locks" you can have it lock up, or lock down.

just get a halo b

I have an apache. It is not nearly as fast as they say it is. I got it up to about 14 bps without stutter. My cousins standard Egg feeds slightly faster.

The apache is more sturdy than the Egg...and that is about it.
The Egg is faster than the apache, yet the apache costs more.

I use an apache on my pimp. I like, no problems here. Then again im not the fastest shooter either...

With my experiences using the apache last season on my pimp and shooting approximatly 5 cases of paint, i chopped atmost 4-6 balls, all season!

Apache are great hoppers. They last for darn near ever. The only problem is that the feed rate is not as high as a true force feed hopper. Also on a side note if you ever hold an apache out a car window while you are parked on the side of the road you can make cars slow down. The apache looks so much like a radar gun when it's held out a car's window that it isn't even funny how many cars you can get to slamm on their breaks. I take no responsibility for what your or your dumb friends do with this knowledge.

you can only go 20 bps....

That is why I got an Apache and a Ricochet AK. They are sturdy like the old 12-volt Revvys were. No thin, brittle, polycarbonate to crack and split. They are just slow, but the bend sensor they use instead of an eye is fantastic. I look forward to the new Kingman "FASTA" Loaders. Supposedly halo fast and manufactured by Ricochet. They are already listed on ActionVillage for around $80.

What hasn't T.E.T. done? Could you tell me which hopper would function best for scrambling eggs?

on topic.....Get a Halo if you can, if you don't have enough then try finding on used on here or ebay.

the.evil.tech · 12-08-2006, 02:28 PM

gee scrabling egg with a hopper? I never tried to use a hopper to scramble eggs cause i use egg beaters. But i heard the pulse breaks a lot of paint if used with ultra evil and without the RF module, so i would have to say the pulse.

Reball_Man · 12-11-2006, 02:26 PM

Hey guys, I said forget the apache and i bought a PULSE. WOW is it nice

thevoiceinurhd · 12-11-2006, 09:31 PM

Well maybe it has 4 ounces of god into it, so it rids the planet of "heathen ballers" and Evil products.
