Black Spyder T-Lock Clamping FeedNeck No Holes

This feed neck looks awesome and it beats the original feed neck on my spyder pilot (old version) by a long shot. Before I needed to use this stupid plastic feed neck extender/adapter that the gun came with to use irregular hoppers like electric ones because if it didn't slide OVER the feed neck (not into) you needed the adapter which added ~ 3 inches of height to the gun. Now any size hopper will fit securely as high as it would with a regular feed neck. From what I've seen (after shooting about 450 balls with it at~13 BPS+) having a shorter feed neck with my electric hopper (a View Loader revolution) reduces breakage and helps the balls move smoothly into the chamber when shooting at higher speeds. Did I mention it looks awesome! lastly, this is the cheapest clamping feed neck I could find so have at it before its gone cause the rest are overpriced at like 25-35 dollars(I mean come on it's just a few small bits of aluminum).

A simple and utilitarian part - there is not much to say. Works exactly as you would expect. I have two minor complaints that knock this from five to four stars: First, a decent amount of force (much more than the usual "finger tight") is required. Second, the tip of the clamping hinge locks so tightly into place I need to use a thin slotted screw driver to release the clamp! Knowing what I know now I would likely buy this product again.

I have yet to use my new T-Lock Feedneck in an actual game, however I can say that the connection is definitely much stronger & secure to both the marker & the hopper/loader. Its a little tougher to screw down to the marker (due to its width), but not impossible. The lock can be tightened so that your hopper/loader will always be securely gripped. I had one of those plastic feednecks that came with my marker and it was flimsy and unreliable. It always needed to be tightened & it slipped off during play on a number of occasions. There is no chance the hopper or this new feedneck will be slipping off anytime soon! Happy I purchased! Its worth the investment and for the price, you cant go wrong.

Even though my gun was listed under those the neck fit, Spyder Victor..... It does not slide on. I've tried numbers of times to contact them, through email, and 4 times through phone, it just hangs up on me when I hit 0 for the operator, when it says to hit 0. So I'm not sure how I'm going to send it back, or if I'll get a refund...:(

I gave this only 2 stars for several reasons:1. It is a chalky flat black, not gloss as shown in the picture.2. It does not fit my Spyder Imagine (or Fenix) that it is advertised for. I would have to shave 1/16 from the outside diameter and over 1/16th from the end, plus shave down the tabs before it would be usable, and still not good.3. The quick release is not tight enough to hold the hopper securely. When tightened all the way down, I can still easily spin the hopper. I tried three brands (Spyder, Rage and ViewLoader) with the same result. Need to use electrical or Teflon tape on the feed tube to secure it.4. the quick release is hard to open, and feels gritty.I gave an extra star because I can send it back for a refund.

Make sure you check your feedneck and I thought this was able to fit my 2012 Fenix but it has no threads. They should emphasize that it has no threads so it is harder to make this kind of mistake. Other than that I'm sure it would work great on threadless feednecks. Build quality also looks good.

Replaced my Spyder Rodeo feedneck. Accepts my electronic feeding hopper perfectly. The clamp is a little tight, but I prefer that over it being loose. I tried to jerk my marker around with the hopper attached to get it to fly off, but this feedneck clamped on steadily with no slippage.

Some reviews said this was hard to attach to their gun and that's why they only gave it 4 stars..... It took me now more then 2 mins to get this on the gun and in the field ready to go! If you cant spend 2 mins to improve your gun by 100% then maybe you should rethink your commitment to the sport of paintball
