I want metal elbows

I played yesterday and we broke 3 elbows, two of them by tightening the thumbscrew and having the plastic break off. The Palmers metal elbows are awesome (I have 4) but at $60 each, most of my 47 guns will be without. (if it's worth doing, it's worth over-doing!)

I'll pick up a couple more but only my top favorite guns will get the $60 love (or $120 for Nasty love).

I have a few of the old Al-Bows which are not very adjustable aluminum elbows. Fit a hopper in there and leave it and it is good but tough to swap to other hoppers. Also they aren't available anymore.

With my wide selection of guns and hoppers, I'm looking for a "ghetto Palmer Feed Yoke" that I could buy in larger quantities (say 20). I'm thinking more metal but plastic or rubber is fine if they can tighten down on almost anything and will never break off when banged or abused.

Any ideas?

Armson Elbow

I don't know where to find them, but this is the granddaddy of all plastic elbows, forget the other ones, just look for these online. I'm pretty confident that I can run over one with my car and it'll be okay. Hell, I'll even make a video of it later if I'm not too bored!

EDIT: I think I might have a source, not sure, I'll let you peeps know if I can get my grubby hands on some uber elbows so we'll never have this silly problem again =]

EDIT2: I drained the source, they only had two left.

Armson 7/8 elbows are available on paintballgear.com for really cheap.

They are annoying though. Very small across the board. Hoppers barely fit and they need to be really jammed over the feed tube also. Durable and low profile but just stupid sized.
