I'll be placing my order with The Angel Guy next week. :)

Speeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

No, it will be damned near impossible to boycott Smart Parts. They have way to big of a standing in the industry. And besides,whatever gun you buy, royalty fees get sent to Smart Parts.


There has to be a loop hole here. It sounds like a Monopoly IMO, they will control all of the industry if this happens. I seriously doubt this. We need more detail. For some reason, I dont think we are being told the whole story.



Besides, Smart Parts KNOWS they just dug themselves into a huge hole that they may not crawl out from. I amn sure they are well aware of all the flaminng going on the internet about them.

and to your comment about dye. Look at dye, they bought out the matrix just so they could have there name on a gun that is getting more popular. And from what ive seen to it, all it looks like they are doing to it is giving it some milling and the rt eye. And i bet that gun will cost about 1200.

No they did not. Do not post false information. Dye bought the manufacturing rights, there is a big difference.

Now here's a question.

Let's say... that Smart Parts wins this. What if all the tourny leagues in a coordinated effort ban electros from tourny play... kinda like F1 getting rid of fly-by-wire? No more demand for electros... SP screws themselves...

And then... what if after this point, all the leagues boycott SP? SP gear/clothes etc... = not tourny legal?

I may be reaching here... but just thinking.

If the leagues threatened to do this in retaliation... would SP push for this?

i think thats a good idea miscue but some one has already stated that X-ball has nothing to gain by doing this and more than likely all the other leagues would follow suit, but i don't know i like that pic buy the way.

[ForgedSpeed]

Umm...since when does x-ball speak for all the other tournament series?

[Cryer]

all this crap makes me love my mag even more...:) :o

[cris8762]

wow, this is horrible

i really hope SP loses, and it seems like there is a fair amount of evidence against them though!

What's even worse is that the value of my imp (that i'm trying to sell) just went down like crazy! DAMN YOU SP!!

[ForgedSpeed]

Meh...I guess I should go ahead and sell my freak I just bought.

So...

If I just take the battery off my E-Mag, I'm good, right?
