Damn i leave the game a while back and i was like one of two or three with a mag now their all over the place AGD bring something out new or something or people just relizing how good these guns really are.


But anyways Heres my mag that has not seen the light of day for longer than i care to admit.  Its going to see use later this moonth and then likley get sold (along with all my stuff)









I had two mags previouse to this one but this is by FAR the best one.

mags are reliable... if they ever do break which is never... you can send them to AGD and they will service them 4 times... there old school which people like... there mech... with the right ups they can be fast as electros... Xvalve+ULT= 17bps or more with bounce or fast fingers... they got a soild feel to them, there small, lightweight, and rare... at least in toronto, ive only ever seen mine, toronto is a ION/A5 city

I'm in the process of rebuilding mine. I've always liked your gun.

i'm not saying they're bad markers... i've owned one... and i just wasn't too impressed with some things with it.  for one, i think they're way more complicated than a cocker, even though everyone else believes the same.

i didn't touch my mag, and it became untuned with a run away trigger that i couldn't play at any field with... and when I called AGD they made me spend $35 on a new sear that didn't help.  I just didn't like having to mess with spacers and shims in both the lvl X and ult.  just... too much that i needed to deal with.  Also, i noticed that yes, you can shoot pretty fast with them, but they kick... a lot. 

problem I have with x-mags... incredibly way too heavy and bulky.  mostly because of the battery pack.  and mostly because electro mags are pretty much just sear trippers, if i recall correctly, although i haven't owned an electro mag... just going off of what i've seen.


but like i said... there's no doubt that mags are decent guns backed by a great company... it's just the little querks about some of the higher ended mags that I don't like.

Thanx all.  Yeah Mags in Toronto are kinda hard to find.  But they are thier i bought my First mag (a old VERT FEED MiniMag from SRG Splatters). 

This mags is  Kinda a mixed bag of parts but it does perform well or at least it did last time i used it LOL.  Its X valved, Lvl 10, ULT, Intellie Framed all on a classic polished Minimag body and rail with the good old dye Ultralight.  This one for shure is going for sale by the end of the month to fund upgrades for my Yamaha V-Star.

Im kinda undesided on selling the tippmann as its been with me a VERY long time heck probly longer than the most the members heer been playing LOL.
