Yeah but there was a part about a gag order being issued to one of the retailers.

either way im blaming it on SP

OMG, well now i dont know if i should feel evil or lucky that i just got a SP marker (used, they didnt profit) anyway, im concidering having it sent to my good friend teh lazer engraver to have anti-SP stuff put on it

[Miscue]

Well, whatever it is I hope it has an ACE. LX works, but it takes way longer than an ACE to get your next shot off.

[penguinpunk555]

If we destroy them now we won't have to deal with them later... mauhahhahaa

[SirTim]

This legal thing will most likely effect all electronic marker manufactures, not just AGD right?

So if you more Xmags, we can still get the Emag right?

If it's true, I say we boycott everything by SP.

My guess is that if SP has something to do with this the Emag will also be on the chopping block as it uses the same frame as the Xmag. I wouldn't be suprised if AGD is halting production to see what the SP problem would do for them as they aren't exactly a huge company. SP has done what is best for them and by doing so they are getting money. It's obvious that if they are winning cases that they have a good strong case. Even the average joe lawyer can see the difference between good and bad cases. I personally would wait for a official notice from AGD before jumping to conclusions.

I'm sure he was talking about the lag time of waiting for the bolt to reset. With a better working ace, it just won't fire.

This means one thing, the black market for xmags is going to be booming

[MicroMiniMe]

I'm thinking its just supply and demand and basic economics for AGD and not related to SP at the moment.
AGDE could never keep up with the supply for X-Mag bodies and holds the body patent. So AGD wasn't making as much as it could from its own flagship high end marker. Hows those warp modules coming for all you on the list.
Also notice Nicads signature since the Karta came out?

Chord, Chord V2, Dallara, Karta, current project: (coming soon)

Could be warp Sluggo with unfinished rail combo for more milling options or a different modular body without a rail. The SFLs had integrated bodies and breeches, so I don't know what is covered by AGDE with X-Mags patent.
I'm guessing the X-Mag wasn't as profitable and frustrating at the same time not being able to meet demand, and a new body will become the current flagship or possible dropdown body options in buying a new emag. I wouldn't expect a new electro gripframe anytime soon, but bodies with warp or verticle and factory ACE as an option might be the ticket.
/speculation

What I dont understand is why AGD decided to suddenly stop making anything electronic just because of the threat of SP. I've heard that they have proto electronic frames lying around for regular mags that they had planned on releasing but they might not due to SP. I may be blind, but I dont see other companies halting there electronic markers because of the threat to SP. Did WDP not release the angel 4 because of SP's threat? no. Why should AGD?
