AO:
I was wondering if we could get a list together of hard to find items and where we can locate them. Sometimes our dealers here on AO have them in stock and sometimes they don’t. This list would hopefully be for non-AGD products since we can make a phone call and usually have them sent to us. Here are a few examples of items I have had a hard time finding and some prices.

Omega/extreme rage
I don’t know a single shop that has these in stock except www.actionvillage.com , less the body rails. I will give them (extreme rage) a phone call this week and see if I can order any. I emailed Terry at G3pb and he said that they can’t just order one rail and require a minimum order to be placed.

Planet Paintball/Eclipse
There are currently two places you can still get these. The first is from Tunaman( http://www.tunamart.com ). He only has silver and the whole kit runs about $100.

The second place that still has a few left is Hogan’s alley paintball. They only have one new kit left and it will set you back $250. Needless to say they will have that kit a long long time.


Benchmark/Pro Team
The only place you can get any of this stuff that I have found is from PTP website http://www.proteamdirect.com I have yet to find an online store that has benchmark body rails for mags.


AO please continue this list of hard to find items and/or stores that routinely stock these or other “cool” hard to find items.

I bought my black Benchmark rail from here (http://store.yahoo.com/actionvillage/paintball-gun-parts-and-upgrades-automag-gun-upgrades-automag-parts-automag-sight-rails-benchmark-au.html) about 2 weeks ago. Currently they only have Blue and Purple in stock but you could always re-ano them for relatively little.

I'm lucky enough to live local to an Extreme Rage store. I was in last Saturday. Most of the Omega parts on the selves were for cockers I think. I searched for the Omega rails a while back and the guy at the factory told me that all the rails were bought by a custom shop in Rutherford, New Jersey. 3 guesses who that was.

I use this (http://www.888paintball.com/browse.asp?plid=PARTS&csid=985108991077048002061764630346563201380298901 37611&icid=AIRGUN%20DESIGNS) place to comparison shop. They have some good prices (<$69 for a new LX) and some not so good, but if you're shopping around already you might want to check them out. They beat AGD on repait kit prices but can be painful if you need to process a return. Also never place a back order with them, you'll regret it.

This place (http://www.xtremez.com/paintball/) has better prices than AGD on Flatline tanks (by $100) but on the other hand, their Level X price is jacked up ($79.99, please). Use this for comparison as well.

I have bought from each of the above companies in the past. After everything is said and done, I buy most of my parts direct from AGD. In the end, its customer service that will keep the customer coming back and AGD has so many raving fans for a reason.
