Since I mainly shoot sniper I prefer to carry two of those cheap brass eagle 100 round pods on a regular belt so I don't have to wear a pack along with a 90 round eagle creek hopper. For a MOUT site where I don't have to come off the site all day, I wear a spec ops tactical vest that can carry 9 pods. Pretty much lasts me and whoever is around all day long....

Most of the time at scenarios I don't carry any extra ammo and if I do it is usually to help reload those on the field. I figure that 140 rounds equals 140 kills and it is highly unlikely that I'm going to be shooting that much. Less paint equals less weight which equals more speed :0)

It all depends on the mission, I allways leave pods in a box at base incase I know that I'm going to be on a mission for a while. As for MOUT games, I'll let you know soon.

QFT -- the boy is Dumb Fast!

for scenarios - the most xtra paint I carry is 90 rounds in a pair of 45 round tubes stuffed in a cargo pants pocket - but I have been know to bumm a pod of paint off a teammate during a 3hour LRP.

for recball - a 200round hopper is more than enough for 4-5 games back to back.

My latest contraption is a Camel Bak LOBO -- holds 90 rounds in lower pocket, a radio in the top, and 100oz of water.

For rec I carry 4-6 and I am about to carry 14 for scenarios. However if I shoot pump I mite go out with just a 45 round hopper and not have to bumm any. like people say "One shot one kill".

The resaon I carry so many is I have leared that carry more paint than you can shot that way. You no you will not run out. The worst thing is when you on the back half of the field and you have lots of air but no paint. I figured out how much my epiphany shoots with my 68/3000 and that is about 9 140 round pods plus a 200 round hopper. So the best thing to do is the next time you play try to count the amount of paint you use in one tank. I don't mean count each shot but if you carry 4 140 round pods and a 68/4500 and you use only 2000 psi to shot those 4 pods then do the math. 2000 psi = 4 pods = 8 pods you can shot plus 500 for the hopper already in the gun.


DEADMAN is it even posable to carry 26 pods.and if so some pics of that would be nice to see..and if so some pics of that would be nice to see.

Since my lumbar (L4) microdiskectomy, (back surgery for the medical mountain oysters), I can carry 4 pods for a short burst. But mostly all I can carry is two in my Flurry and a full RB hopper... Yes it sucks, but playing with two is better than not playing at all. I'm not supposed to be lifting anything heavier than a gallon of milk. (yea-UH... right!)
