I have posted about this subject many times before. I must say that AGD is not as loyal to their RT owners as one would think. Don.t for get that RT owners (like myself) were the ones that dished out $300.00 more to buy the RT before there was the E-Mag or RT Pro. Non RT owners should realize that we were very faithful and loyal to AGD to buy this gun in the first place when you were buying mini's and classics. Is it fair that we paid more and now we are forgotten and thought of as just complaining? The truth is I love my RT and believe me, I can buy any gun I want but I stick with AGD.
The RT was the top of the line gun for AGD and now that is forgotten. The RT Pro is just a cheaper version of the RT. It has no gas-thru foregrip, intimidating main body of the RT, rail with air adapters, hardline, and my valve is more reactive than yours. But it was cheaper to build replica RT's and turn them into Pro's and E-Mags. The RT is where the quality is.
AGD should realize that RT owners dished out the big bucks to buy the best. But I refuse to sell my gun and buy an E-Mag just because that is where the upgrades are. That is what AGD wants us to do. They want us to either buy new E-Mags or Pro's and toss our Rt's to make it easier for them. AGD is now running an assembly line company. Smart Parts has two guns where parts are not compatible and they make stuff for both of them.
Tom, I really like you a lot but if you are going to do for one you have got to do for all. If you make upgrades for old guns you got to make it for all your guns.
The RT was designed with the future in mind. That is why it has those extra are outlets on the rail. But because nothing fabricated from extra air outputs you scratch the hole gun. One of your selling points with the RT was that no matter what happens in paintball in the future the RT will adapt because of the air ports. But if you don't keep to that claim then the RT was just an experiment and I am a gerbel. Please make the E-mag and modular conversions available for the RT. As well as intelliframes available in stores for RT owners.
