Me and my team took our Xtremes out for a tourney last Sunday, and we had a blast. We used 12 cases of paint (24 000) and we had a total of three ball breaks. Paint used was Victory. we came in second in am. div. There were several angel users that thought our Mags were full auto and accused us of cheating lol. You guys are really in for a treat when they are released stateside, start saving coz this is a must have marker. Below you`ll find a web adress with some pics from the event, beware they are big.

well, it couldnt have been any broken paint. I wouldnt expect that from an extreme. The dang gun shoots so fast it started to melt the balls!:D

no i think were refering to the statement above that says out of 24000 they only broke 3 balls now are you saying that all three happened in this particular marker at this particular time?

umm.. why does it all have to happen at this particular time?.. seems like a break near the tip of the barrel.. nothing more... :rolleyes:

In this one DSC01076.JPG you can actually see a ball in mid-air above the bunker!! cool.

Every pic i clicked on (not all the pics the ones i clicked on) had paint oozing out of the port holes. :rolleyes:

Sweet pics man. I can't wait for the warp moduels to come out here. Is that the ball dent that is on the top of the warp moduel?

Hey CaPoEiRa I think the point of schnitzels sig is that calvin is jumpin out of his skin to try and reach the mag thats above him. :p Calvin and hobbes rule!!

Mag pusher
05-17-2002, 04:57 PM
I`m back now to answer your questions. As for the paint "dripping" from the barrels, that is balls breaking in the last 2-3 inches of the barrel. The paint was as before mentioned Victory paint from wdp, normally we would only be using that as rec/goofing around paint. At this event it was field paint, and it was so dented that it looked like golf balls. The three breaks I was talking about was chops, two of wich were our own fault since we forgot to prime the warp after shootin at an 90 degree angle out on the left side. Breaks in the barrel due to bad paint does not say anything about how the marker works, if you think otherwise thats your right (but you`re wrong)

05-17-2002, 08:08 PM
well how many breaks in your gun did you have overall??

Schnitzels sig is kind of silly.

An automag is dangling above a person. The person can't reach therfore the person's skeleton pops out of the body in order to get the mag.

05-18-2002, 05:31 PM
would that be broken paint in the barrel... yes, i belive it would be. im not impressed, sorry agd.

So you must not like any marker there is out there. Cause every gun breaks paint eventually. No matter what you do to a gun there will be other factors that cause barrel breaks.

played an nepl today........
i myself shot 1.5 cases of atomic marbs

i like lots of guns! i just am really un impressed by guns where i see say 20 pix of them, and they are advertised to be gentle on paint, and they shoot a few cases, and like 3 of the pictures have paint it the barrel. ive never broken a ball in either of my guns, after LOTS of use. Thats what i consider a gun i love.

05-20-2002, 12:37 PM
I see liigood is impressed with him self because there`s no response to his post, do you think it could have anything to do with the time difference??!!! If you read my second post on this thread you may be enlightened

For your clarification, the extremes that are touted to be easy on paint are the ones that will be released in the US. They will have the level 10 modifications which is what is going to make them so gentle on paint. The extremes that are currently out in the UK have no such modifications, so besides the body, its more or less just like the emags here. Whether they put the ACE in those UK extremes I dont know, but the valve is the same as the ones here.

liigod just to let you know my sfl has the ace in it and iv shot 37710 balls in my gun and iv had less than maybe 10 balls break in it ,and I DO NOT DRY FIRE MY SFL,i play every weekend,we play nppl and when we are not playing tournys we run 5 on 5 and 10 on 10 prat,so maybe im just lucky that iv had no prob with it but i dont thank so, all the new guns comeing out will shoot as good if not better than my gun,and i dont even have all the new stuff in it yet ,i just havent had time to send it to tom k yet,but hey if you got a gun you like stick with it ,im not trying to knock you on the post you put up and you are right there was a lot of paint in there barrels ,but there guns are not set up like the few tom k has out like my sfl and the 1 that manny from aftershock is useing ,but when they do come out they will rock,./

I was at the nppl with gecko and I chopped one ball in almost 2 cases of paint and that was because I ran the hopper out of paint

How come the extremes are out in europe first? I was just wondering.

Kaiser Bob
06-12-2002, 12:06 AM
Probably because all the extreme bodies are made in europe.

paintslinger
06-12-2002, 12:57 AM
so how did u guys place in the tourney? and i noticed that the xtremes were all non cnc'ed i guess they didn't have time to mill any of them? also did they have the ace installed? if so how did that work out? also for all u guys that think the xtreme isn't good b/c there was paint broken in the barrel thats sad...the gun has nothing to do with paint that breaks in the barrel and did u even read mag pushers post when he said that the paint was dimpled like a golf ball? its set in stone no good paint barrel match equals barrel break! ignorance really gets to me sometimes

Really. Why is that? But aren't the A.C.E. and valves(level 10 in particular) made in the US.

mykroft
06-12-2002, 01:11 AM
Well, if it's tip breaks like they said, then it's the paint. Crap paint will tip break in anything, from a Vision Impulse to a Rainmaker, the breaks are cause by the paint trying to hook before it gets out of the barrel. 3 chops in 12 cases is excellent, if these guns were blending, you would see it oozing out the breech like you do on an angel when you blender.


BTW, JT Paint rocks, shot a case of it through my Fly on Sunday, no tip breaks or chops.

Obsolete: The Extreme bodies are a AGD Europe product, ACE and Level 10 are AGD US Products.

Oh so those extremes don't have the ACE or Level 10. But I'm still wondering why they make the bodies over there.

Temo Vryce
06-12-2002, 07:41 AM
Simple, they were designed over there and not over here.

Hey Guys, I don't make the bodies.

I did the CAD design for the milling style of the bodies and wrote the CNC code for the machines to run to make the milled bodies. My real Job is running a CAD/CAM company which produces software and does consultancy on everything from machining components to reverse engineering. I have all the fancy software but no mills of my own :( (if I did I don't think I'd get any 'proper' work done :) )

The bodies are made from extrusion for AGD(E) by another company and then AGD(E) does all the cosmetic milling for them on their own mill using my designs and CNC code.

Makes sense? :D

I work on my laptop from a beach somewhere and just mail John the code to run :D

Why do people keep knocking the gun for paint dripping out the end of the barrel?
Most of the time, if you have that much paint down there, it did not chop. You either have: a) bad paint, or b)something wrong with barrel.
A chop will generally splooge the bolt and shoot back up in the hopper and get all over the rest of your paint.

Pand0ra
08-06-2002, 11:14 AM
Yeah sorry for the squeegy. I took it with me just in case of the bolt got stuck. It was the first time I used the level 10, so you never now. And I got the marker back from AGD-E only 5 days before.
I left the squeegy in the staging area for the 3 or 4 last games :) .

On this pic you don't see the rest of the pods hehehe.
I shoot around 1500 balls per game, which is correct but not very high for a 7vs7.
Anyway I can't carry more than 8 or 9 pods with me, I'm not big enough lol.

1500 a game! I hope you wern't picking up the tab:eek:

Thankfully I only play 3 man, so I top out at around 500. But then again 1500 would be a lot of fun :p and maybe a few blisters on my trigger finger!
