Question Has anyone tried to copy the cyclone feed on an A5?

Ok,
I am wondering why no one has tried to copy the feed system on the Tippmann A5, i don't mean other companies, i mean just other paintballers, all it is, is a piston driven feeder powered by excess gas from the gun, Right? That doesn't seem that hard to duplicate.
Thanks Cody

never heard of anyone doing it, dunno if it would work. Tippmann designed it for the marker only. If you try it, let's see some pics!

The evil orracle has a cam operated feed. It works pretty differently than the tippmann cyclone, but it is essentially a force feed system that operates off of gas.

The cyclone feed is patented. I'm sure it is pretty hard to copy it without some sort of compyright infringement but I am sure somebody has tried.

The only way they can have a copy right lawsuit is if you sell it for $$Cash$$
If you make it for you, or for your Friends ( and dont charge them) then he will be fine
