Hi all (sorry that its so long),
I've been playing paintball a few years now and am looking to upgrade my M98. My roomates have Autocockers and I've watched them have nothing but trouble with the timing, I also get a kick out of how they seem spring new leaks once tthey fix the old one. Another friend has an automag and I really liked it when I shot it.
Here are my questions about the gun:
1. I am going to run it on Nitrogen, do I need to buy any new internals for it? (ie. springs, etc)
2. I know about the A.I.R. reg that is built in but I have a pretty nice Messiah regulator that I'd hate to see collecting dust, should I use it instead of a gas through foregrip, or will this hurt the markers performance more than it helps? I'd really hate to waste my $100 reg.
3. Microline? Macroline? Steel hose with quick disconnects? If I went with the steel hose I'd need to run from my drop forward to the foregrip\2ndary reg and from the foregrip\2ndary reg to the gas inlet. So I'd need to buy 2 lengths of the steel hose if I went that route. About how long should the hose be from the foregrip\2ndary reg to the gas inlet on automag?
4. Powertube spacers, do they have any substantial benifit or should I save the ~15 they will cost me?
5. Will the grip frame accept Dye sticky grips or do I need to buy a new frame? I ask this because my M98 has a .45 frame but won't accept Dye Sticky grips that easily.
Thanks so much for reading this far and I look forward to your replies.
