I just wanted to have everyone who is in the next batch of X-Mags come in here and talk about how we can wait since we're down the home stretch and our markers are at ano right now and should be back fairly soon (not like next week, but at least we're not still waiting for our first call).

Ummm..I said NOT like next week...we're close to half-way through the 6-8 week wait so, as far as I see it, we're on the home stretch...

Now we gotta give the Programmer some love too. Would be nice to get the X-Mag with the 3.0.

DiRTyBuNNy
09-08-2003, 09:46 PM
eeehhh..I'm not too high on 3.0 at this point...if it comes..it comes...if not I'll just send my gun in to get flashed anyways...

DiRTyBuNNy
09-09-2003, 01:04 PM
so only three people from AO are in this batch? I can't believe that..(ok..make it 4..I know Cphil is in the batch too, he just didn't report in)

i think it should be understood that phil has one in every batch

i know this is sorta off topic, but when 3.0 does come out we can simply send ours in for a free update correct?

Correct..you''d just have to send it in for a board flash...or catch up with AGD with an event..

i can't wait till we get pix from Tom showing us that our babies are ready for us...woot..woot...!

Nick O time
09-14-2003, 10:05 PM
cuz i already had a green one that i bought at my local pro shop, i wish i would have waited for mine though, cuz then i could have gotten my blue one:( . o well i guess i got one and i still love it but i still wish it was blue, maybe i will send it in for reann or sumtin. i wish i had more patients like you guys. hope you like em when you get em.

Come on Nick, you know I have patience for mine. Found out from my dealer that Im 239 on the list, so Im prolly 2-3 batches out now.

Nick O time
09-14-2003, 10:49 PM
hey i have a question, if you are 239 do you get serial number xm000239, cuz i thought the serial number on the x is the one you were assigned in for waiting. or does it not work that way???

AutomagRT1483
09-14-2003, 11:12 PM
I dunno, I think mine will prolly be higher than that. I have seen upper 200's for serial numbers in pics already.

Nick O time
09-14-2003, 11:13 PM
ahhh now i got it. ok i am still debating whether to leave my x the same color it is now, Green or get it annoed like royal blue to sky blue or sumtin??? you have any suggestions on that???

DiRTyBuNNy
09-15-2003, 12:35 AM
well, i wouldn't recommend re-anoing an X-mag because it will throw the tolerances all out of whack but ultimately it's your decision...i would have just waited...but oh well..

sps16
09-15-2003, 12:39 AM
even after it is stripped?

Steelrat
09-15-2003, 12:44 AM
I believe the stripping process also removes some of the aluminum underneath. The reason you cannot re-anno Vikings is because the type 3 anno requires even nastier junk to get it off, removes a lot more metal, and definately throws everything out of whack.

sps16
09-15-2003, 12:55 AM
yea that type 3 anno looks like it would be really hard, did you see the thread where they guy got the featherlight viking? That thing was a beaut!

Steelrat
09-15-2003, 12:57 AM
Yeah, its pretty sweet. Thats the only downside to my Viking. I wish I had coughed up the extra dough and got a fancier one.

ZAust
09-15-2003, 01:13 AM
hey, as long as it shoots nice.

DiRTyBuNNy
09-15-2003, 01:20 AM
yeah...isn't it ironic that with most mags...the worse they look the better they shoot...

Steelrat
09-15-2003, 01:36 AM
Well, I wouldnt say thats ALWAYS true, but usually ;)

Kaiser Bob
09-15-2003, 02:10 AM
all my mags have been pretty and shot awesome :P

DiRTyBuNNy
09-15-2003, 04:18 PM
yes, well...once I get my X I'll believe that a mag can be pretty..

and btw, it's been a week since Tom said the current bath was going into their ano bath...I CAN'T WAIT (TO SPEND $1400)...

Well I deceided to take the plung and made a deal for cphlip's Pre-order X.So I guess I'm in this batch as well.;) Oh the wait is killing me!:D (isn't that what your supposed to say?)Anyway,beats the heck out of waiting 6 months. WooHoo!!


Jay.

I might take offense to that....

DiRTyBuNNy
09-15-2003, 04:33 PM
Cool RR, you gonna be ok getting a black2silver fade X? Yours and mine are both coming from Cphil in the batch that is currently at PK...so we're coming down the home stretch...woot woot!!

RRfireblade
09-15-2003, 04:40 PM
Yeah,actually one of the reasons I never preordered was I couldn't deceide a color combo.I'm so tired of trying to match accessories to existing colors and have them "almost" match.So this kills to birds with one X,I'm digging the black to silver fade and those have to be some of the easiest colors to try and match up.:D Personally I haven't seen one in that fade so I'm real curious to seee what it looks like.Anyone else see one Fade Black to Silver front to back?

It's a Benchmark Twister. They made a few,pretty neat looking.

Benchmark(Proteam,Armson,GunFX) have some really neat ideas and some potentially great products,it's a shame thier marketing,production and ability to meet demand sucks.

I also got the call bout 4 weeks ago, so I'm hopeing mine is in this batch as well, although i asked them if they could mill MAGNUM into mine so if they did it will probably take longer. When I ordered I was young and viral, but now the hair is grey and falling out but I'm still hangin in there. It would be TOOOOOO kool if I saw mine in the pics Tom posts.

DiRTyBuNNy
09-16-2003, 06:50 PM
yes..please...Tom...pix...without them I will not survive..

DiRTyBuNNy
09-17-2003, 12:55 AM
and btw, TK...how far out are we looking for when this batch should be shipping..i'm not expecting an exact day but are we half way there..a third..??

BetaMax
09-19-2003, 10:31 AM
Ahhh. Looks like the x-mags are not back from anno yet. Guess we have to wait till next week for pictures..

Ohh well..

09-19-2003, 10:46 AM
Damn RR, that's gotta be one of the tightest Mags I have ever seen. She's beautiful.

Oh, and I just wanted to make this comment real quick:

Steelrat, your sig and title cracks me up everytime I see it. "I meant to type steelrat".

:D :D

Yes...Steeratt...I always wondered why you didn't ask Webby to just change your username...it shouldn't be all that hard...
