Impressive by HK sonic, would love to see a Sonic vs Triad

[@Ryan-1337]

Pretty sure the tray on the sonic snaps into place and doesn't just sit there? I could be wrong though.

[@hkarmyclothing]

🔥🔥🔥

[@JohnCena-nz8nq]

What do you think is the better hopper - The HK Sonic or the Spire IR2? Pretty much same price point.

[@paintballnerd]

I’ve used both! It comes down to which brand you like. I don’t think you can go wrong either way.

[@skinnyboy400]

Awesome video! Glad you weighed them. Appreciate it.

[@paintballnerd]

Thanks again!

[@SchwarzeskabelGWP]

I thought the spire IV was supposed to have eyes so it stopped spinning all the time?? Or am I thinking wrong?

[@sickmak90]

It does the same thing the $100 IR2 does. I’m not sure why people buy it over the IR.

[@paintballnerd]

Sometimes people buy things simply because they cost more than other things…

[@atracin]

If the eyes aren't blocked it will spin, like every other loader with eyes.

[@charlessoriano604]

@@paintballnerd this is the way

[@Po7ent]

Spire 4 uses tension technology

[@KERTER21]

Excellent.. thanks

[@paintballnerd]

Most welcome!

[@austang8556]

Just wait until the JT Triad comes out! It's going to be the best thing out there $150 at 15 BPS+ and the design is NEXt LEVEL!!!

[@paintballnerd]

Triad looks awesome!

[@rfholmes222]

This aged well

[@StepSiah]

I never understood why drop test videos went out if style. Used to watch hours of them back in the 2000s, trying to decide between a Vlocity and Rotor.

[@paintballnerd]

What’s a drop tear video?

[@StepSiah]

@@paintballnerd Typo, I meant drop test 😂

[@redxarmy7807]

Are these new hoppers that came out? I'm not super into paint ball so I'm not sure if this is a newer hopper style or if these are standard, I don't have much to compare them to

[@paintballnerd]

Yes they are new! They just came out!

[@tamsyndavis784]

Spires nice... But is it worth twice the price of a Sonic to shoot under 11bps? Nope.

[@paintballnerd]

Well it’s actually more than twice the price! $249.95 vs $99.95. The Spire is worth it for sure but for $99 the Sonic is an incredible bargain!

[@richardm68]

Build quality from Virtue vs the quality from HK ! ? 🤔 I'd have to put my money on a Spire . All the HK stuff I've ever seen has been a bit naff ! Not bad stuff just not the greatest .

[@paintballnerd]

Both are built well but you can see and feel the extra cost in the spire.
