It is mostlikly that people don't like the styleing of it, that is a fair price. I personally don't care for the colors.

With the introduction of the ULE-Customs, the most you're goign to get for that mag is probably around $150-$175...
It's still got the stock single trigger frame on it and the classic valve.

There's no way that someone's going to trade an Evil Omen for that. The omen will outperform it in every way possible.

Did you forget to subtract the price of your HPA from that $800?

Personally I think you will be better off parting out good barrels and sell this on ebay for 185 - 200 as a high end entry level marker. (toss in a $5.00 viewloader and a old pair of goggles or something.)

Either that or throw a X-valve and Intelliframe on that baby and hunt down all the people on this forum that don't like the way your mm looks. :D

not going to add anything to the marker,already have a ule rt with x-valve(it rocks!) i just cant believe that the prices of minimags/68's have fallen so much in so little time.
oh,,and as for selling on ebay,,i have no fargin idea how that works! so that doesent look like an option.

Maybe its just me but it seems like that would sell for more like 200-250.
I dunno though, I havent looked at the markers forum in a while.

its a nice body, but anyone who would be interested in getting a nicely anno'd body would be turned off by the trigger frame and the valve. It's too expensive for beginners, and doesn't perform well enough for experienced players. I think that's your problem.

I'd part the whole gun out on ebay. It's really easy to do. You will get much more money for it as parts than you would for the whole gun.

Ummmm....it looks like the paint was spray painted on. If that is the case I would make sure to tell all pootential buyers/traders of that ahead of the final sale.

What's your point? If you are playing and you drop your mag in the water, you're going to have to pull it apart and dry it off...unless you don't care about accuracy...

So, your point is moot. And I still stand by my original claim. I'm not bad-mouthing the mag...it's a great looking mag, but it'd never hold up to the performance of an Omen.

just the barrel

and a omen is nothing compared to a mag
