Who still uses and AutoMag Classic?

[TheLaxPlayer]

How many of you guys/gals here still use the AutoMag, instead of the E-Mag or X-Mag? Please add why.

I'll go first:
I myself have a Classic powerfeed. I got it over the other mags because I cannot afford the rest. I spent less than $200 on the classic with two barrels (told one is an old all-american), the vert air adapter, AGD asa, and some sort of expansion chamber or reg.

[tyrion2323]

I have a classic automag kickin' around:

Works perfectly!

I've also got:

Evil Omen
Logic Framed ULE Custom

[Wolfen]

Technically, right now, I have two complete Classics. One is going to get turned into an RT Pro because of the X-Valve soon, the other is turning pro later on. But I am going to be building another Classic with the left over pieces of the other two so my twistlock barrels won't get lonely ;) It's going to be fully stock pf/hl, but with a double trigger on the stock trigger frame (trigger guard cut off :D )

[magsRus]

[Bad_Dog]

lol, works great... I got it from this dumba... er... I mean great guy... for a "hellofa" great price!

BTW, magsRus is a great seller... shipps quickly, and cant forget to mention the great deal he gave me:)

[Onryou]

I use a classic, thats all i could afford but soon i hope to get an X-valve for it. I'm also parting together a couple more for some of my friends who just love the feel a Mag give's them.

[nt2004]

i use a classic. I dont even want an xvalve, i shoot just fast enough right now and my gun's weight seems perfect. I use it all the time against electros and i hold my own quite easily.

[eMpTy68]

[pjammaman]

I use a classic mag, it's my main gun. it's level 7, running c02. Shoots fine and I have yet to have any problems with it. :D I find that it fires fast enough for me and I would not trade it for anything.:p

[pballa2k4]

i rock taht beast...due to cash problems. my classic ownes biznotches. but i am going to sell it for my emag funds...soon there will be one less classic user in the world...

[Mag89]

My friend has a classic mag with a lvl 10 on it

[GT]

i have 2,

1 stock the other lvlx and ult

[Intellimag]

I still have a classic, but it has every single upgrade known to AGD except a karta (which is coming very soon) and a rouge rail (which is coming very soon also). Its a powerfeed left also :) Ill have the the karta and rouge rail in about 3 weeks maybe :)

[Altimas]

I shoot a classic...

[D-CeLL]

I have 2 micromags with classic valves, one has the standard bolt the other has a venturi bolt. I have no need for a faster shooting gun, and seeing as I shoot to the guns capabilities I have no need for a lvl 10 bolt either (meaning I don't chop balls). Hell, I still play speedball with a pump gun, being out gunned means nothing to me :D

[FalconGuy016]

I still have a minimag with minimag valve, replaced by a shocker just recently :)

[Dryden]

I'll never part with my Mini. :)

[SaS]

Classic mag with a fresh minimag body last year. My mag has been playing longer then i have. 7years myself and my mag is circa 94ish booyeah
So minimag with lvl10

I can still dish it up. But today that changed, just got a xvalve with ult after our practice... With my Classic [:D] Classic is back with the rest of it's original parts as my "old school" backup.

Long live the classic:cool:

[AGDlover]

i'm still runnin a clasic valve untill around July then its gone

[Wc Keep]

i used a classic valved mag in half of my tournaments last year.

[WaStEd TaLeNt]

Here's mine (check out my sig)

I just can't decide if I should by and x-valve, or if I should just wait and by a RT...

[252]

I still rock the Classic, but with a ULE.

12v revvy hopper
thats all like over $900

lol hahaha thats crazy, isint it?

[laxkid]

my little brother chooses his automag classic with only lvl x and the original single trigger over his impulse(brand new).

[SaS]

some classics need to be drilled out to accept the ult(2 o-ring thing). and then there's the overshooting of the valve.

[eMpTy68]

Just recently used my Classic68 at Wayne Dollack's "Diablo Island" in Marmora Canada (July 31- Aug 01). She is so Sweat, no Chops all day or problems of any kind. :dance: :shooting:

[magking1971]

I use a stock classic with no lvl 10, I can't shoot to fast so I never need one.
I also use CO2 :argh:
I had a x-mag but sold it because I had to fix my car and also wanted something sweet and simple.

[WickeDKlowN]

I'm still using a Classic RT... but I don't thoink that's the classic you were talking about.

I'm supposed to be trading my guitar to GA Devil for a Classic 'Mag, but there's been a huge lack of communication on my part since I barley know what's going on anymore(school just started so I'm all out of wack).

[AGDlover]

um does a classic valved E-mag count?? then i got one of that!!

[peewee]

I have pretty much a stone cold PFHR pre star mag only ups are volume cell & double trigger. I use it when I am at fields that have no HPA. Barrels are Palmers nickle plated, aci zero gravity & a freak. I havent had much of a chance to use my new RT ule. I am in the middle of a deal to get a phantom. :ninja: Gonna play some 10's & 12's. :headbang:

[space_weazel_45]

i have my classic for my various experements that require co2 :D

[gc82000]

I have a classic mag and would like to post some pics. But i dont know how

[Creative Mayhem]

Although I currently use and Xmag for my primary marker, I still like to hack around with my trusty old Minimag, "The Purple People Eater"(pic in the sig) Theres nothing wrong with the classics they work well, and take an unbelievable amount of abuse, not to mention you can take them home and throw them in the shower(or shower with them if that's your thing... :eek: )

[Jeffy-CanCon]

I use a Classic, with L10. I have 5-6 friends using them, too. The Mag is easily the most popular semi with my club.

[Skoad]

I'm fixin to buy a classic valve and mag parts as soon as I get a few bucks!

[afultz075]

I used a Minimag up until two months ago when I had to sell it to my friend to get my E-Mag. Man do I miss that gun :( It hardly ever chopped on my and I only had level 7 on it.

[PaintballSmurf13]

I still own a classic and plan on rebuilding it so that i can play with it again, does that count? It is only a backup to my cocker right now, but I want to play with my mag when I play scenarios or something, because I still like my mag and it has a nice feel.
-Ryan

[brianlojeck]

until my RT arrives next week (hopefully), my classic is my main gun. I recently stuck a vert minimag body on it, but it's pretty bone stock. (I even used the crownpont barrel for a few years).

It's been faithful and dependable for many many years (check the serial number in my .sig).

[scrumpy]

I still use a classic for 2 reasons. 1. I don't have enough money to buy anything better. 2. Air isn't readily available in my area, although my friend and I are changing that-we've got a few scubas, one is in hydro right now.

[Automaggot68]

Classic Valve with a highrise polished centerfeed body, intelli, Hpa, etc.
I love it.

There's not much left on them that's stock anymore, but the one on the left was an Automag and the one on the right was a Minimag. Still have the valves though. :)

:D :cheers:Thanks. Actually, as of about two weeks ago the Minimag (on the right) had a regular ole powerfeed body. When my girlfriend saw the Dallara, she demanded something at least as shiney for hers ... so I bought the nickel ULE from Tuna last week. :D

Dude. Do you have anymore pictures you could send me? those mags are SLICK man.

Enter those suckers in gun of the month, man.

Enter those suckers in gun of the month, man.Not yet. The vert framed Dallara is getting an X-Valve, fade ano, and laser engraving on the grip panels, and the other, which will remain a "classic," is going to have the lowers ano'ed again (so it isn't six different shades of black), and also get an upgrade to aluminum laser engraved .45 panels.

When they're done, I plan on winning GOTM for both October AND November. :)

[Chipper]

I rock a Smart Mag. here she is.....

http://jayloo.com/files/pics/5000/automag%200063030_rs.jpg

The only reason why though is cause I don't feel like spending money to get a e-mag.

[SOAD8789]

i use a classic. boomstick, hyperframe (IS switch and 20 bps board, custom trigger), and level 10. gettin a new body soon.

[spectre184]

Easy maintenance. It's paid for (plus I have a lot of $$ in it). I can shoot it fast. I haven't found another marker I like. Oh yeah, because AGD products rocks :headbang:

68 powerfeed mag
Proteam bench mark 45 frame double trigger
Smart Parts wood 45 grips (don't flame me I bought these about 7 years ago before SP started their lawsuits)
ANS phase II AIR valve (I know you guys say it's BS, I got it at cost and works well for me)
Foamiless bolt
10"DYE one peice stainless barrel.
Reactor on/off valve
sear/trigger job (guide off of Riva Chiopra ((SP?) webpage and some other stuff doen from his mag guide)
homemade power feed squegee (made by former team mate).
HP piston

still need to anodize that rail black, and get a black micro rock on there.

[lew]

I have a Classic Mag. It's been kicked around between my uncle, his son, and another cousin for a few years. I bought it earlier this year. It was the first gun I ever shot. It's a bone stock standard feed.

[msprince]

This is an old automag that a co-worker gave me, not sure of the year, does'nt say classic on the valve, has a spring instead of a spacer in power tube, any way put a o-ring kit in it and it works good. I think he may have bought in the mid to early ninties.

[11_Mile_TMaster]

I have a classic mag... it's more or less my 'loaner,' though. If someone wants a gun to use, they get that one.

Spring instead of a spacer?!?!?
Sounds like a pre Level-7! Hold onto it!

[Carbon]

Actually, i just gassed up my ULE'd classic today with some spare fittings, boy does it feel familiar! That broken in o-ring feeling on the mag, the tactile repsonse. Lemme tell ya, the emag has spoiled me, or any electro for that matter. As far as im concerned the Classic is faaar from obselete. Im gonna take it for a spin the next time i play.

What can i say Im a Classic Roller.

[brianlojeck]

Spring instead of a spacer?!?!?

not necessarily. My LVL7 mag had a spring, the spacers came out MUCH later IIRC.

The main visible difference (again, IIRC) is that lvl 6 and earlier has a spring clip holding the power tube in place, and they started welding with lvl7.

[TheLaxPlayer]

My thread lives!!! I though it was gone months ago, then got an e-mail that there was a reply!

I have a spring in my powertube also, but I thought they all did :eek: I am going to check if it's welded or has the spring clip right now.

You guys have some sweet mags! Mine has the steel pf body, and an all-american barrel. That's it. Need money....


EDIT: It's welded... level 7.... guess I'm not as special as I thought. Probably better that I have a level 7 though, as it is the gun I use. Has to be better somehow.

[StormSurge]

is a mini mag close enough????

[coyote]

Stainless minimag PF right. I got it in a package trading away an Impulse I hated. I sold the Intelli and use the single carbon fiber grip frame. The humble few goodies are a 10 inch boomie. a Lapco drop, and (not so humble) an emag valve.

Every time I head to the local rec field a few player ask about the mag. It is quite funny.

[11_Mile_TMaster]

You are correct. Your superior skills have left me ashamed. ^_^

Anything with an air valve counts, but x valves only count if you have pictures :p

I am in the process of buying some parts that will allow me to compete with you!! Bwahahaha!! Pics soon......(two weeks)

[SniperSmurf]

I’ve got 2 classic valved Mags (1 SF and 1 PF). Both are lvl 7s, so I don’t really use the standard feed because of blowback issues. The PF classic is my primary rec-ball gun and my A-5 is the backup. Also have 2 RT-Pros, but they don’t count here since they are X-valves. Spare parts are the bane of my existence! Every time I upgrade one of them, instead of selling off the old parts, I end up buying more parts to build another Mag… Damn my hoarding disorder!!!
