i have a spyder shutter with a haol b hopper. i am having a problem when the balls load. either i shot two balls at once or the ball gets cut in half before it makes it in to the chamber. what can i do to fix this problem.

thanks 0?

arent the halo b's force fed? you may be feeding more than 1 ball into the breach each time because spyder detents suck.

***MedicDVG*** · September 20th, 09:10 PM

I would agree that the force feed is stronger then your detents.. Unfortunately there is not a whole heck of alot that you can do about it as there are not a whole lot of aftermarket Kingman detents.

is it the detent with the little rubber piece or the one with the ball and a spring behind it?

***MedicDVG*** · September 20th, 10:28 PM

ball and spring.

i got that one and have never had a problem wit it, i would just call up kingman if i were u and get them to send u a new one if your shure thats tha problem.

**blank879** · September 21st, 12:59 AM

just wondering. how come u have a halo on a shutter?

why not just get a revvy or something and save some money

**sick_dawg** · September 21st, 11:59 AM

If the detent does not fix it, I think you can turn the halo down as well. I know I heard it somewhere before, but I have never tried it on mine.

**reitodd** · September 21st, 06:07 PM

i believe it is the rubber detent and i got the halo for $90 brand new from a friend

You won't need the rate of fire a halo B offers, just get a reloader and you'll be fine. Your halos spring is pushing the balls past the detents.

**stupidlikeaf0x** · September 22nd, 01:46 PM

Get hard timmy detents and see if that stops it. I don't think you can do duals because of the powerfeed. Otherwise, trade me the Halo for my egg and cash.

**lbreevesii** · September 22nd, 03:53 PM

yea, u don't need a halo for a spyder, keep the halo for when u upgrade, buy a revvy for the spyder and replace ure detent

**sick_dawg** · September 22nd, 07:18 PM

At this point there is no reason for him to change hoppers or buy a new one. Halo b's should work, I know because mine works on my spyder, so we just have to fix the problem. A new detent is a lot cheaper than a new hopper...

**lbreevesii** · September 22nd, 09:19 PM

the point here is that the new detent may not fully resolve the problem, the problem may lie in the force feeding of the balls from the halo. thus my suggestion of the revvy or empire.

**[^_^x]** · September 23rd, 05:12 PM

Replace the detent. If that doesnt work then look for a new hopper but keep your halo b.

But I know that a halo b can be used with spyder detents because I have one. I also know of other people who have had halos on there spyders, and there should be no trouble. Replacing the detent should work fine.

**stupidlikeaf0x** · September 23rd, 07:13 PM

That's because most people that use a Halo B on their Spyder have the newer ball and spring type detent. Those usually have no problems. What he has is the older style "rubber nub" detents like on Intimidators except he only has one and not two. I'd say get a hard timmy detent and see if you can install another one on the other side. I'm pretty sure that'll fix it.
