I started playing paintball about 9 years ago. The past 4 years while at college I barely touched my mag let alone played, or kept up with what was going on in the industry for that matter. Now home from school I’m getting back into playing, and I’m looking for parts for my gun. My question is what is going on with AGD products and aftermarket products made for mags? It seems like every store that I visited has discontinued these products.

i know the feeling Magellon. A lot of the places to get Mag parts have stopped stocking them because they are starting phase out Mags. However, there are a few places you can get AGD parts. 1)AGD's website or 2)Actionvillage.com (where I get all my Mag stuffs) AGD has pretty much everything, but is a tad pricey. While Actionvillage may not have the widest selection, it's decent and the price is good too.

(I'm a first time poster BTW...long time Mag owner)

I would beg to differ on the "phasing out". I have seen an increasing amount of Mags creeping up at various scenarios I've been to as well as rec ball on the weekends. I tend to notice these kinda things being a Mag owner myself. I wouldn't call it a rebirth or anything, but maybe a re-discovery. The paintball industry has been notoriously slow at times at getting products out for markers, maybe even for markers that have been out since the early 90's. If the industry scores with the right product, at the right price, you might be able to see more Mags out on the fields than in years past.

EGB, I see what you mean seeing the fields around NC and the people that are starting to use the Pro Classics. I guess it just has to do with the preference of the place who sells AGD stuff. I know actionvillage.com used to sell AGD markers, but they stopped stocking the markers. Yet, they still sell the parts and kits for AGD...just glad to see more Mags starting to come back :headbang:

They're still hanging in there, i live in the UK and virtually no one stocks parts for them, i have to ship parts in from the States. Thankfully they're very robust, i haven't changed the orings in my classic Mag for over 8 years! My Retro valved Mag i haven't changed them over 3!! Anyway there's plenty of places to buy new and interesting stuff for them or have them modded. http://www.devilsden.tv/
