Yep, thats what it is. Your supposed to be able to sight over the top of your gun better.
I had one, but I had Luke do his magic on it as soon as I got it.

If memory serves me right the first RT's came out that way from AGD, then as a option, also there was an optional trade in for the standard PF bodies. I think it had something to do with chopping because the rasied section of the tube didn't have enough weight on the ball reliably in high rates of fire.

Hmmm thinking that body would look nice on a RTpro setup... would take some serious Luke work to get it to work though I think...

theyre pretty rare because only a few 100 hundred were sold in america before someone found out that they didnt line up correctly and cause more chopping/leaking issues.so im sure they were all returned and refunded by agd,however agd europe's bodies worked perfect and were kept in production.im lucky to have one that was also factory milled for a pump kit.they look sweet but idk if they are actually beter than just a standard powerfeed.

Ha Ha Euro My behind but it may be rare. If I recall correctly that was originally a D.A. of AGD design for himself and some of the Swarm guys on a standard SS PF body. I think it was offered as an option back then when AGD did all there brazing inhouse.

As I recall:
That was the first RT body. I saw it for the first time at a tournament in Tucson, it was AGD's newest marker at the time. Man, those were the fastest thing on the field for a short time. (Shortly after that, electros started getting popular at the tournaments I competed in)

They were discontinued because of feed problems. A few years later TK made a comment here on AO that the problem may have been the feed plug and not the feed tube.

They did come out on the first RT's. They had minor feed problems... but the Erou AGD bodies didn't seem to have the problem, or they just continued producing them for a while. Because AGD europe continued to make them they became known as AGD Euro Powerfeeds for awhile.

The original concept wasto allow the use of sights and while keeping the powerfeed and tall ball stack. But shortly after thier inception, sights and woodsball faded, the speedball field dominated, and forcefeed hoppers merited short arse feednecks.
