ok the dude at my local pball store says that mags arent that great and he cant sell them. i said i wanted to shoot fast and he said get and impulse....yuck. so i said i didnt want an electro and he said get a cocker. i dont really want a cocker either jes cuz their so complicated. he had a chrome mag in his shop and he said it was a thousand dollar gun and e said hed sell it to me 4 350. he told me he hasnt bought a new mag in 3 yrs. i still want a mag i figured id get a rt and xvalve and lvl10...so on.

great idea, it's just a stereo type that they suck, i've used one on occasion, and the work fine.
The 'mags suck' talk all started when mags were all stainless steel, and of course, before the lvl 7 and lvl 10 upgrades that revolutionized them. For the uninitiated, the lvl 10 is a bolt system that prevents breaks by squeezing forward a bit to be sure a ball is fully loaded in the chamber before firing.

Unfortunately, xpaintball.com only has them in the RT Pros and left-feed EMags. The E-Mags are great, don't get me wrong, but a bit pricey.

You can get the new RT Pro with a ULE body and the X-Valve (lvl 10 included) starting at $420, or $510-515 if you want the Intelliframe or Y-Grip (both are double-triggered.) All of which is off of AGD's website.
now got a quick question I've been out of the mag game unfortunatley due to college. and of course I gotta get one to go back to my roots. Is the Inteliframe make it electro or what? I haven't had a chance to read enough on it.
Intelli is a mech frame. It connects to your revvi to make it spin on every shot.
ahh ok had one of those just did a wiring job myself.
yea i really want one im savin up now that i got my fishy to where itll shoot. im lookin at either a rt or rt pro i dont want a emag jes cuz the whole reason i wanted a mag is cuz i dont want an electro gun.
Then you’ve come to the right place!

Mags have got to be one of the best mechs around, IMO. Wouldn’t dream of ball’n without one!

for people that have used old mags, yes
I have a stock Classic Mag, you love it, it will love you back, yes they chop, that brittle tourny stuff, but rec paint, your fine. Mag's don't suck.
yeah i thought mags sucked to untill i used one. i was talking to the owner of the local pball shop. he told me even mech mags shred i was like wtf really?. he gave me a rt ule y grip mag and a pod of paint and sent me in the back room. i was like damnnnnn. mags rip so hard. th best part is that mags just have that old school feel to them, which is why i like em.
mags are awesome me and my friend where woods balling with another friend it was a 1v2 .2 totally pimped out electro spyders with everything you could think of on them, and one stock automag with co2 and he killed us both within 5 shots so that say alot
yes, mags are good, but if your friend got you both out in 5 shots, i wouldnt give credit to the gun. Either you two suck or he's really good
i dont suck i mean we where playing in the rain and everything i suck in the rain i guess

Best electro too :)

Finnally got the E-mag working after sanding the lvl 10 bolt and getting rid of the burr inside the body ring. I bought it used and broken for cheap and fixed it up like its new. It owns and I was quite sceptical at first as it was heavy. Only comlaint is that it uses way to much air. LVL 10 is amazing.
