Dude, theres not really such thing as a stock RT Pro. When you order it you have a choice of what you want. What kind of body, colors, trigger frames, and differnt parts.

And I hate to break it to you, but mags are some of hte lightest markers. ULE (Ultra-light Engineering) bodies weigh in at something under a pound. I dont think my mag weighs much more then 5 pounds without tank and hopper and barrel. And teh valve adn trigger frame take up most of the weight.

EVer hear of an RPG PAradigm? ITs bacily an RT Pro but tricked out and sold by RogueFactor of Automags.org.

They cost somethign like $450.

All the preconcieved notions of mags are crazy. Unless you've shot an RTP or some kind of electric mag, then you don't have room to compare say, an impulse to a circa 1996 automag.

The latest designs to come out of AGD are amazing.

And on the thing about cleaning.. Its literally one screw and you can clean out any chops with just a squeegie through teh body. And thats a thumbscrew too.

One more screw and you've got the gun separated into its main components, and one final pin, and you've got the gun broken down completely into its parts.

Now I'm not saying mags are the best thign since sliced bread, I'm just saying that for the price, you get a marker that blurrs the line between mech and electric, woods and speed, and pro and rec.

And 22fu, how about a vid of me dunking my mag in water for 30 seconds then gassing it up and trying to fire it.

I bet if I left it gased up the whole time, then it would work even better.
