Haven’t tried on my own marker, because I’m still waiting on my MG100 from PE. But Nick (the designer) is a coworker and runs our little paintball group. It runs flawlessly on his MG! If you run a DYE rotor I know it needs a high feed pressure. He needEd to mod the spring. I’m not sure what he did but I can find out. But Halos run perfectly without any need for mods. Hope this helps.

What about Spire III's ?

I like the clamping feedneck mod the guy in the video did in his next video.

Cool!

Then you can run the Warp feed with a Pinokio 400 on the side and a Pinokio 400 on the top of the MG100 too then you’d have like 820+ Paintballs lol!

With a 5+8 pack you can easily hold more than a case of Paint.

Although you might need a 77/4500 or bigger Tank to shoot it all?

No Spire III I love my Spire but due to the design you need a true force feeding hopper, such as a rotor or halo. I’ll be have Nick print one out for me once the MG arrives. I’ll end up getting a Halo since they’re really affordable.

Okay guys,
Sorry it took so long. Finally got a hold of Nick. If you don’t have social media you can contact him directly via email.

Support@sncustoms.com

He charges $25 for the adapter, $8 flat rate shipping, and $8 if you want a name/callsign 3D printed on the side.

Hope this helps.

Only thing that worries me: how well does that mag release hold the weight of a rotor? It looks like a lot of weight being carried by a small component that was designed for much lighter mags.

Not something I’d worry about. I’m a firearms enthusiast. The amount of lock engagement of a MG100 is as much as Glock, if not more. Glock uses a tough but somewhat soft polymer for their frames as part of the design because of the recoil it experiences. The MG100’s GFN polymer looks to be a PA6,6 with at least 30% fill of glass fiber. I would consider this tougher than what Glock uses. If you consider that a Glock can run a heavy factory 33rd mag of 9mm along with a much higher feed pressure under recoil. I’m not worried about the weight of an R2 filled with paint. If anything every did fail/wear out, it would be the mag release. This item is easily replaced for cheap from PE.

Also, Nick doesn’t baby his stuff. If it was an issue, he would have discovered it.

Hope this helps.

I've used mine several times.
It works great with my Prophecy, but not so good with a Rotor. My understanding is that the Spire doesn't work at all because it lacks the force to push the paint against gravity.
Stick with something HALO-based and sound-activated, like a Too, and you should be good.

Well I took the plunge, ordered one of these and picked up an LTR loader.

Not sure how much it will get used though.

I pulled the MG100 out of the box again today, I didnt remember it being as surprisingly heavy as it is.

Thing does weigh a lot for an all plastic marker....

Significant, possibly essential upgrade for warp users:

Mine was working fine when I used it all day last month.

I have since installed an Inception Designs Fang trigger and the Deadlywind hAir valve and the LTR cant keep up now.

Went to Home Depot and bought a box of assorted springs, one size spring can be used as shims to get the LTR to feed faster.

I'm running a warp feed with LTR and it's been very problematic. Does not seem to feed well, lots of blank shots and chuffs. I've messed with the spring tension screw a bunch and can't seem to get it dialed in. Anyone know how to mod the LTR for warp use?

You need to add another spring, see the post above yours.....

Back the tension pin out and add another spring.

This was like $4 at Home Depot.
