cartridge information

I am curious if cheyenne and t tech are the only 2 cartridge manufacturers..

Will cheyenne cartridges work on fk irons new cartridge grip, or are they only for cheyenne grips?

There is another compay i forget the name the carts are clear plastic but waht i have heard is they are absolute shit, and yes t tech , hawk and fk they all fit the same

The thing u may not like about cheyenne carts is that there standard mags are the same as normal bug pins , im prefering t tech but ordered a few boxes of hawk carts to try out the hawk carts really have wayyyy more resistance then t tech i have a eikon ems400 and u have to put it aroud 11 volts to get it turning then lower it so i ordered the start up cable for my thunder t tech u dont really need that start up cable most stat around 8 v where they should

You can find them on ebay, I have also heard not to bother wasting your money no matter how cheap the cost appears to be.

I second that. They are a double edged sword. Cheap and the needles are ok ( be sure and loupe them ), but the cartridges are crap. I tried a few, dunno maybe 10. I had a few of them pop the back cover off and shoot the spring across the room before I could insert it in to a T-tech grip. I have not bought them since.

So if I had a fkirons cartridge grip the cheyenne cartridge tips will work in it?

[aurelien]

I don't think so, as far as i remember, they may have evolved since i used a cheyenne though
