mags

[Shocker9]

why do people like mags so much

[OysterBoy]

Let see.....
-Highest Recharge Rate (X-Valve)
-Most Foolproof Antichop System (Level 10)
-Great Upgrade Potential
-Get-What-You-Pay-For-And-More
-Light
-Once Again, Fast
-Incredibly Fast For Mechs
-(Once NiCads Frame Comes Out) Fastest Mech, Lighter Pull Then Electros

Just to name a few reasons...

[penguinpunk555]

PWNED!!!!!!!

[Shocker9]

mags are'nt even considered a gun where i live

[OysterBoy]

Really? Say hi to hitler and the rednecks for me...

[MagMcBride]

Mags are fun to shoot and never misfeed!

[Butterfingers]

They also dont require 3 gallons of Dow33 lube, cause they are designed correctly.

[Shocker9]

ill do that

Just to name a few reasons... What he said! Mags had become a dinosaur, then TK breathed life back into mags! He's simply a genious at designs!
People complained:
Mag bodies are heavy and ugly! So AGD designed ULE's and slugs. Then a few designed bodies from sluggos. Not to mention Xmags.
People complained about the twistlock barrel. Again, the ULE line takes cocker barrels.
People complained the frame sucked. So AGD made intelliframes.
People said "mags are blenders/chop too much". So AGD developed Level 10.
:) :D

[Shocker9]

yeah the shockers low pressure, great accuracy, great speed, light body,and small size are just a terrible design.

[OysterBoy]

no, their gas-hogginess, t-shirt-shooting valve are. And you really must not be too knowledgable or you'd know accuracy is dependent of the paint and barrel used.

[MagMcBride]

I dont know man, I have a Mag and is sucks air out so fast it is crazy...I get like 600 shots out of mine with my 68/3k Max Flo.

Edit- I DO have a classic so I dont know how good the RT/X-Valves are on air..

[powerofthegospel]

yeah the shockers low pressure, great accuracy, great speed, light body,and small size are just a terrible design.

and don't forget about the shocker's pricetag...it's only about twice that of a mag.

J.J.

[MagMcBride]

Dude the Shocker Vision is only like 900 bucks....that is not too bad!

[Shocker9]

yeah because nobody going to pay over $600 for a mag

[OysterBoy]

Oh really...


goto www.jayloo.com check out all the E, X, and custom mags, most of which have more the 600.00 put into them.

With that price you get a quality much....


you know what why the hell am I arguing this? I cant sway the minds of those who lack the intelligence to understand, or those who have the ignorance to not want to understand.

[Butterfingers]

I do cause the current production mags are just as light if not lighter...

Faster... http://paintball.butters.org

More reliable...

And with level 10... Break less paint.

So yes I will pay for somthing that is better...

I will not pay for somthing because SMART PARTS TOLD me it was better...

Which doesn't really accomplish anything.

great accuracy,

Like all pb guns with good regs and a good barrel.

great speed,

As far as high end guns, the speed is average.

light body, and small size

I'll give it that.

are just a terrible design.

Don't forget the crappy efficiency, weak threads, piss poor anodizing, soft aluminum, and absence of LPR (Wow, they actually managed to make that mistake on TWO guns).

[Shocker9]

really because mine came with a lpr

[penguinpunk555]

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

you my friend have a great absense of power.

Which Shocker did you happen to make the mistake of buying?

[Shocker9]

03 Shocker with vision and a new 68/45 max-flo

[MagMcBride]

Dude, I have a mag, I love em' but my bud's 03 shocker is really sweet, and the vision works well as long as you stay away from dark paint and mixing colors.

[Bad_Dog]

sounds like someone just wants to compare their shocker to the mag...


it's not worth arguing... if you dont appreciate mags, it's your decision; every person likes a different type of marker... there are no set rules.

[James]

This thread is stupid.
what the point of this??
its like me going on a smart parts forum
hey why do you like smart parts!
different folks different strokes.
simple as that. you like your shocker good for you.
we like our mags so be it.
who really cares.
its like cars some like ford some like chevy.

[penguinpunk555]

Post pictures of your sexy mags and show him how smart parts tired to be like them with their body design.

exactly if smart parts was so smart they would have 2 eyes so it wouldnt matter with what type of paint you shoot.
i am sure with a 900$ they should be smart enough to let you shoot any paint you want.mixing or not.

Yeah so invisible that it dosent exist :p

[Shocker9]

you mean the invisible lpr that im holding right now.

[MagMcBride]

Dude the 03 Shocker has a reg in the grip...

[Ov3rmind]

Post a picture of it.

[Shocker9]

i would but i dont have a digital camera

[Ov3rmind]

Originally posted by MagMcBride

Yeah, it does; an inline regulator. An inline reg and an LPR are two different things.

[Butterfingers]

YOUR MAX FLOW is not a LPR.

An LPR is a reg that brings down the input pressure FROM your Maxflow into your pnumatics used to fire the gun

It results in better performance and more tunability... and also results in better consistency. It seperates the firing cycle from the propulsion air.

[penguinpunk555]

Shockers don't have LPRs give us a link to one of the shockers with the LPR.

[Butterfingers]

Ahh the power of knowledge... looks like sombody learned today...

[MagMcBride]

ok well a shocker has a INLINE reg then....here's one on ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3668197641&category=16048#ebayphotohosting

[Butterfingers]

So does every other high/ midrange gun

[MagMcBride]

ok...dont say the shocker doesnt have a reg then...and remember I like mags, so don't butcher me at supper tonight ok baby?

[Butterfingers]

we never said it didnt have a reg... we said it didnt have an LPR which is somthing completely diffrent.

[Ov3rmind]

No one was saying the Shocker doesn't have a reg. Numerous people were saying it didn't have an LPR though.

[penguinpunk555]

http://www.hunt101.com/img/125502.jpg (http://www.hunt101.com/?p=125502&c=500&z=1)


Here is a shocker with vision. As you can see it doesn't have a LPR.

[Shocker9]

so why do people like mags so much?

[Butterfingers]

Read above...

[punkncat]

I like mags just because I do.
I have to admit that the Shocker is a really sexy marker.It feels just like my mag though.

Oh and Vision sux bawls

you need to be banned already.

[penguinpunk555]

Read the first page.

[Shocker9]

banned for my opinion

[Ov3rmind]

It was already answered several times. But just for fun, I'll throw in my opinion:

- Small
- Damn reliable
- Easy to disassemble
- Almost no maintanence
- Great company backing it
- Balances out great
- Lvl 10 insures no chops
- When Nicad's hAir trigger comes out they're going to be insanely fast.

[MagMcBride]

kewl thanks for informing me man, I thought somone said It didn't have a Reg on the gun....but even still how much better could the shocker get accuracy wise...I mean at like 30 yards you can get a grouping like 12" across...

[Butterfingers]

no he dosent need to be banned he needs to read the first page...

[Shocker9]

i like your quote, cat

[James]

no banned for ignorance your question has already been answered yet something in your mind isnt processed

[Shocker9]

hey howes your freak and halo doing james

[OysterBoy]

Heres the real question;

Why DONT people like mags?

[Chronobreak]

bleh i cant beleive a kid whos shooting a wannabe mag is asking why we like ours so much i think he should get a mag for himself b/c he obviously has never owned one ;)

[spacedtedybear]

so why do people like mags so much?
Stop flame bating moron. We've already given reasons why people like mags. Maybe you should pull your head out of your a** and read the thread.


banned for my opinion
No banned for useless assertions. Opinions are personal feelings about a certain fact. You have yet to have stated a fact about a mag, or even responded to anyone who have replied their reason for liking mags.

[warbeak2099]

That's really sad that he doesn't even know the difference between an lpr and an inline reg and he's toting a $900 marker. He probably hasn't even been playing that long. Oh, and let me add another up mags have on sp guns. NO SHOOTDOWN. SP guns are notorious for experiencing shootdown at the speeds an x-valved mag can shoot at without shootdown. So, you'll never be able to fire faster than an x-valved mag with the same consistancy. Sure the 03 shocker is said to be able to fire 30bps, but an x-valved mag will always be more consistant. Don't flame unless you know what you're talking about. You've probably never even seen a mag in person much less used one. If you can't win an argument don't start one. And here's another hint, when you've already gotten pwned, GIVE IT UP!

[Head knight of Ni]

The freakin' shocker was someone elses design!!!!
-my motto for smart parts is "We dont steal designs we just buy them. Patents on the other hand."

SP probably would've slapped another usless $600 features on the old shoe boxes.:mad:

I like my Mag for one reason its more a part of me than a tool I use. :D

Viva le Mech'

[Carbon]

Mods please close this thread. It is reminessecent of a PBN thread. Please.

[Head knight of Ni]

Its sad but you dont poke a bees nest.:p

[Carbon]
