Hey all,

just waiting on my Tac 8 in the mail, but going over some schematics, it seems to resemble an automag in many, many different ways... anybody have thoughts on this?

Well, it IS a blow forward gun, however it lacks a level 10 (which it could certainly use)

I owned a tib 9 rifle for a bit, and was a bit disappointed because i kept chopping paint. Funny, i could not find anyone else with the same problem. In any case, it really is accurate, red dot sight worthy for sure. I might end up picking up another one in the future just because it's fun to go to a scenario and actually BE a sniper with a low profile gun. And usually in scenarios theres plenty of people around, so you can easily snipe some people if you take your time.

But, yes, poppet valve design, not too bad. twist lock barrel too.

Yes, I've noticed that too. The Tiberius markers share a lot of similarities with classic 68 mags, right down to the nubbins and twist-lock barrel.

Its big difference lies in its trigger mechanisms, but other than that, it's almost a distant cousin to the mag family!
