Any bolt with a low maintenence
A vavle that i can run anti-siphon c02 through

And the rest of the parts needed

Please help me out, im new to mags and know nuthing about them.

if you know nothing about mags i'd suggest buying one, and getting the manual and getting to know mags inside and out.

ok, should i buy an rt, rt pro, minimag, or a classic? I was kind of leaning toward the minimag. Can i use a ule trigger pull with the minimags stock valve and run anti siphon c02 through it?

if you MUST run Co2, than either a classic, or minimag will work for you. anything else requires an N2 air source.

In the long run it ends up buying a new gun instead of just building one is a lot cheaper(I'm going off prices from www.themagsmith.com)

in the long run its cheaper to buy the "perfect" mag setup for yourself, but i wouldn't recommend this since your new to the guns.
