View Full Version : Is it time yet?

Ok so last time I looked into it (months and months ago) SP was gone with the wind and this magical White Hats LLC created a website and posted some vague comments that got everyone all jittery. What's gone on since then? What the heck have they done? I tried loking on their "channel of information" but did not see anything new or ground breaking.
All I really want to know is: Is it time to kick emag production into high gear? :shooting:
GD I'd like to pick up a shiny new 2012 Emag. I know people still have mint condition ones, but its not the same (no offense to all the badarse emag owners). I'm a die hard mag fan and I want to see a mag take over! I'm tired of seeing the fields flooded with cheap electros that aren't worth a dang and I really like showing up with a mage and hearing "what is that?".
I believe Kee ended up with all of the intellectual property. Would support the claims I heard awhile back that Tippmann was going to enter the speedball arena.
No new Emag for you!

oh well, I guess back to the plans of building another one piece by piece :shooting:

even without the patents going to KEE (who is enforcing them), there never was going to be a new emag. sorry.

Design patents only last for 14 years. So if it is simply solenoid activated by a switch issue, i would think it is going to lose its "limited monopoly" soon
With the availability of VER frames, Ego frames and the like, I wouldnt truly expect the E-Mag as we know it to ever begin production again. If it was rereleased as a EP framed mag, maybe, but not in it's original form. At least that's my $.02.

Only if the patent was issued before 1995. Any time after that it's 20yrs.

What about a full electropneumatic valve? In the flavor of say... pressure controlled poppet.
Forget the sear, forget the EP frames. Keep the Level 10, of course :D
No more prototype sneek-peaks until it's been anododized and tested.

I am talking about design patents not utility patents... do you know when SP had theirs registered
I think it was '95.
EDIT:
Jan 16 1996

Well that sounds like a MQ valved mag, IIRC KEE owns the patent on the MQ's aswell. So that would be the same kind of issue with patents. Now if you made them thats a different story to some extent.

Impressive work Pneumagger.
If the operating instructions are easier than UTB instructions
then count me in.

But hell, I'm game.

;)Truth. Can't hardly get past turning my VER on/off and changing modes before my head explodes.
