Hopper shot open

Okay, so had some problems with my main marker, so I switched to the backup which is a low end mech so I just had a gravity hopper on it. I got caught up fighting one person and missed the guy coming in on my right. I hear him shoot and I feel the gun hit and then another in the mask, so I lift my hand... and then I feel all the paint from my hopper run down my back. LOL
The first shot had hit the hopper right at the lid and popped it open. I dunno it was kinda funny at the time. The guy is a friend of mine and he still worries over a little spilled paint. He was all apologizing. I mean, I don't like spilling paint, but I'm not gonna get all crazy over it.

A paintball broke your revvy lid? Wow but anyway I hate it when the paint will hit your hopper, and then spray paint all over your face...

Yeah, the part of revvy lids where the pin goes through is way too weak. Mines been superglued back together 3 times now. I've got a whole new shell kit in the mail though, so its all good.

That happened to me when I was first getting into paintball. Shot the lid (standard gravity feed) clean off. One of my friends had a paintball close his hopper once. He had it open to put a pod in, and a guy ran up to bunker him. Shot him 3 times in the hopper and once in the mask. Cracked the lid (Halo B) and ripped put a hole in one of the stickers on his halo.

One time I bunkered my friend and the lid on his gravity feed hopper popped open and I wound up shooting like 3 paintballs into his hopper. It was a mess of paint. His was super pissed. lol

Well without pics I can call shens. Just cause I call shens doesn't mean it is shens. It was just hard to believe, ok? Ok.

When i was playing some guy was standing backwards in the stand up reloading, and when his hopper was open the top got shot off.

Pretty funny
