I haven't fired this gun in over 3 years...6 drops of Autolube, new batteries in the HALO, air & paintballs, and it was up and running like a charm. The main battery still had a charge!

Anyone remember who made that "AO" drop?

That marker would be well served with an anno matched body, and a viperblade....

Damn straight. It would be tough (and expensive!) to have it all done right, though :cool:

wow, beautiful.

I would at least go for a colored body, green or something wouldn't match, but it would have FUNK

Jesus, that's one helluva nice vintage E-Mag. Yeah, it'd be cool if you could get the body anoed to match/flow excatly with the lowers; however, if it came to you like that right outta the box, then I wouldn't touch it. I could almost bet that there's alot of E/X-Mag collectors out there that are gonna grind their teeth (and maybe cry a little) wishing they had this flawless piece when they see it. VERY nice Mag dude.

PBreview has them listing 3 products :

http://www.pbreview.com/products/man/313

But when you click on the manufactoers website http://www.dppp.net
it just says dppp.net will be back soon!

I ordered a couple about two years ago and paid thru Paypal.
A drop that their site said was in stock.
After no response to 3 or 4 emails I filed a Paypal complaint before the 45 day
Paypal deadline and got the money back.
I figured something was up when that happened.

Word has it that AGD had 25 done in this color by PK (annodizing) I know Gadget from the UK has one...CPhillip had one. I've seen a few more here in the pages of AO.

I just ordered a yellow tip from CP Products. I'll see how that looks

Thats right. I used to have one. Wonderfull gun it was. And yes that is a Datapimp drop. I had quite a few of his drops at one time. Including the extra reach one for the Fatboy tanks and the direct drops. Good stuff. I think KyleAGD has all of my "Datapimp drop collection" now. Datapimp was his user name. One guy. Pretty good fella. He is still around here from time to time.

Yes, I think thats right. 25 of those Yellow to Orange to Reds. And 25 reverse fade of that. More of a Orange to Yellow than that with less Red. Then there was also Blue and Red Solids. All done around the same time by PK. I am not sure I recall the exact numbers of the Solids. might have been same 25 or was it 50 of each? Webby had one of the reverse fade ones. And Army had a Red one (think still does) and Miscue (IIRC) had a Blue one. There were a few odd purple flecked things that preceeded that Colored batch of Emags done by PK. Those all had Black or Silver bodies (mine had Black) and the Barrels were faded to match. Beautiful Anno job.

Same Phil, new name! :cheers:

The original barrel is quite nice. It goes from more yellow at the (black H/L) mainbody to orange at the tip.

I got this gun from PTP after about 3 months of haggling with them over a Micro-Emag that never worked right from the get-go. Eventually they (PTP) took that heap back, and hooked me up with this Emag (I still think Tom had something to do with it! :hail: )

I have one of the prototype LVLX kits in it. That kit made this gun a Monster :shooting:


Here's a poor pic of the barrel...

There were a couple of things that were funky on those Micro E's that you had to know and had to actualy make. Special. Even PTP, half the time, did not know how to do it. You almost had to custom make the On Off Pins. Well... you DID have to make em. And you had to secure a few things too. Otherwise they would do all sorts of weird things. I once picked one up, Chrome one, for $200. I had the right on off pin made. I think Tuna either had it or made it for me. But then BlackVCG finished finding the problems and fixing it right. Worked perfectly from that point on. I forget exactly what the issues are but they might come back to me if I think about it.

Tuna, did you not once have a Tequila too?

Funny thing is, I ALMOST sold it for $500 a few weeks back...kid didn't want to spend that much. Then I got some air, some paint, and realized that I'd be foolish to sell that gun :tard:

Since then I ordered custom grips, a new barrel CP tip, a CCM No-Rise, magnetic ball detent. It's my favorite money pit!

I still have the original barrel & mainbody too ;)

I didn't take any pics, but the guy with the orange-to-yellow tequila took a few pics. I'm hoping he'll post them :)

Tequila! :clap:

I need some new photos, but mine hasn't changed much... Just added XMOD to it, and I've got a newer Datapimp drop instead of the old black one.

Hi Strider, glad to see you still stop by occasionally as well :)

Great looking EMAG! I still have that twist-lock Armson 2pc barrel...

Oh the SSR? lol, I forgot about that one. I still run mine about 90% of the time, but the freak looks better in photos. :p

I've been around more latley, as I am building an e-tac for a friend. :)
