If i have a semi-auto paintball gun do i need a electric hopper?

Question

i have the TL-R spyder and im looking at a viewloader electric hopper

Answer 1

Yes. You need to use an electronic hopper. It's not required, but it makes a HUGE difference.

Answer 2

It really depends. Your gun does not need a electric hopper. If you can really shoot your gun quick, consider buying one. I would get a Revy, they are cheap and do the job.

(Revy is short for the Viewloader Revolution.)

Answer 3

the electric hopper that you are asking about is good and bad. the hopper can break the ball if you do not shot a high grade paintball. and what a mess the plain old hopper is just as good as the eletric hopper

Answer 4

for a spyder you dont need to upgrade from a viewloader..whoever said a halo for a spyder thats goin overboard...and if you were ever to spend that much on a loader go with a vlocity over a halo

Answer 5

You do not need to have an electric hopper for your gun. If you do want to shoot very rapidly it my be benefical to you to own one. I have a semi auto gun and I use an electric hopper. I would recommend it but not necessary.

Answer 6

No, dont get elecronic hoppers for semi auto guns. Noobs do that.

Answer 7

wgp- autocockers come in both semi and electric. Bt pretty much same as a tippmann,

Answer 8

it depends on how fast your gun is firing. for the most part no. but if you shoot very fast then get a halo.

Answer 9

yes-shoot fast
no-shoot slow

Answer 10

no
