Well, I thought I would share my automag with you guys because I am pretty new to the board. I bought this back in 95 as my first paintball gun. I played amateur from around 98 to 2000 and pretty much dropped off the radar until a couple weeks ago. I have decided to get back into the swing of things, so this is where I am starting.
The gun is completely stock from early 90’s I believe. I have only changed the spring spacer for a power tube spacer. I bought a “Z-valve” but couldn’t get it to work right, so the gun still shoots like it did from the factory. I would like to find out when exactly the gun was produced. I bought it used in 95. There are no stars on the valve and the CN# is Cf22109. That would be cool if I could figure out how old this gun really is. I just put in new o-rings and oiled her up after almost 7 years of sitting. Shoots like it is brand new, even though it is well over 15 years old. I can’t out shoot the hopper and didn’t break one ball out of the 3 hoppers I emptied. I just bought the Revy 18V and Crossfire a week or so ago.

I plan on adding an X-valve with LVL10 & ULE. I am also building another Mag out of parts I have lying around. Ill make that my project and keep you guys updated. I down for some rec ball if anyone in or around Orlando wants to get together and represent AO!
Is there any way to determine how old this thing is?
