Years ago I was at the World Record Game at Skirmish in PA (I think it was “97) and happened to notice that they had hundreds of Automags as rental guns. I would like to pick up like 10 of these just for personal use, (family camping trips and such), does anyone know where I might pick some of these up?

I know it’s a shot in the dark, but I thought I would through it out there anyway. :D

I know you are probably not interested in the shipping costs etc, but I remember when I was in Ottawa one time a place had some beater Automags they used a while ago for rentals. I am nearly positive the place was

Maybe some Ottawarians would know for sure ;)

Didn't Tuna or one of the other AO dealers pick up a bunch of them? I know someone had purchased 100 of them.

My first encounter playing with a 'mag, ever, was at Triggertyme Paintball (http://www.triggertyme.com/) in Columbia, SC. To make a long story somewhat shorter, they ran out of Tippy M98 rental markers, and I got to use an older AM rental they had moldering in the back room. Some oil in the vert ASA, a fresh fill of the CO2 tank, paint purchased, and I played all day long. That intro to the 'mag is what made me buy one of my own.

They might still have some of those laying around, and be glad to get rid of them.

Skirmish sells off their old rentals all the time. Give them a call you might get lucky.

Cool, thanks guys.

I sent out a few emails this morning to the 3 fields, now I'll just have to wait to see if I get any in return.

Are you looking for the whole marker or just a the valve ?

Depending on the price I want 6-10 markers. Not for rentals, just for personal use...
