But really, this design [/url] is really common, but it's really apparent that the bottle goes in very easily, and that tongue is really flexible, which means the bottle falls out pretty easily.

They don't. I've used cages like that for years and never launched a bottle from one, or seen a bottle launched from one. If they get a little loose, you just bend them back to whrr they're tight.

They will eventually die of fatigue, but at $4 every 10-15 years, you can replace them in perpetuity from the investment earnings on what you would have spent on a CF cage.
