Just messed around with my first electro...its awesome.

I was wondering if i would be able to buy just the grip, batterypack, rail, board, etc. all that good stuff just by itself with no body or valve.


?

The only part that is not avaiable at this time in the store is the grip frame. Hopefully it will be made available in the near future.

Usually parting out and building from scratch a paintball marker can be more expensive then just buying the marker already assembled.

Sure. They sell all of that in the Online Store. You can also contact Tunaman or another dealer here on AO. It will most likely run you quite a bit since I know the Rail's 80, Frame is $200+, board+solenoid is $240, battery is $80, charger is $80+, sear is $55, and so on... Probably cheaper to find a used one or have Tuna build you one...

, but you will need am emag, retro, or xvalve to use it

nope, you do not. i should know, as i have one with a mini-valve. the only thing you need is an E-Mag on/off assembly, .712 on/off pin, and a quad o-ring. they work fine on E-mags, and even have a massive sweet spot in hybrid if you tune them right. you just have to have plenty of air flow to get the board limited 16bps. and if you have a LX in the classic valve, it will only acheive 16 without shootdown with the shortest spring.

the body requires re-machining, witch can be accomplished with a dremel.

yea thats what i thought, if you can use an rt valve in an emag or in a classic, you should be able to use a classic in an emag.

i already got the ULE :)

just need that sear and on/off jibba jabba

About the only thing you will get to reuse is your valve... and why would you want an AIR valve on an EMag unless you wanted a CO2 powered EMag? Upgrading a Mag to an Emag is the crack-addict approach... just sell your gun and buy an EMag outright... used if you want cheaper.

I forgot to directly answer your question:

Yes, you can buy it. It's called the EMag Conversion for $550.

well, when you get the whole bottom half of the e for $50, you just cant say no to that. the conversion for $550, ouch, just get a used e-mag.

I was under the impression that they didn't do that anymore.
