    AGD E-mag vs Pro Team Micro E-Mag - feeding issues

    Functionally, the E-mag and Micro E-mag are the same gun. Same electronics, same valving. They differ in mainbody style only, which is what my question is about.

    Does the (very) short vertical feed on the Micro E-mag affect reliable feeding in any way compared to either a PF E-mag or Vertical feed E-mag?

    I'm very interested in purchasing a micro e-mag. I prefer the styling and ano on the micro E-mag, but don't want to sacrifice reliable feeding resulting in chops, etc.

    Thanks for any input you can offer.

    doesn't effect it at all and it being shorter might even help you out with a warp feed :)

      Although I like my E-Micromag, if I were you I'd just go E-Mag, and if you want anno and milling wait for modular bodies. I've heard of many issues relating to E-Micros; even mine, which has a safety problem, and Russ's, who had an even bigger problem than I do. It could turn out to be more trouble than it's worth, but could also come out perfectly fine as a good, well-performing marker.

      I got the E-Micro 'cause I wasn't planning on getting Warp so soon. After finding the Warp's advantages, I would have rather went with an E-Mag with powerfeed instead. The Warp should work fine on the E-Micro; I wouldn't have gone and spent extra money on the E-Micro if it was incompatible, because I knew I'd want the Warp sometime. :)

        I have seen a number of feeding issues with the ultra short feed tube on the E-Micros, and I believe most of them were due to outshooting the very short ball stack. With the introduction of the modulars and increasing warp feed following, I don't think the E-micro will survive much longer. If you don't like the warp, but want a lower centered hopper, perhaps get the E-micro with HALO loader to keep up?

          the short ball stack on the mico -E is the only problem i have had. I could with no problem out shoot an ego 12volt. I just bought the turbo rev board and installed it. If I shoot with the gun stait up and down, no problems the turbo rev keep up but as soon as I went out to the feild and started shooting angled and such, chop chop chop. I was so pissed, I even limited the rof at 10bps and still had problems, it just can't feed fast enought when angled, because of the short ball stack. This is what I recommend to any one in the market for an emag. but an a powerfeed agd emag then buy the vertical feed X-treme body when it comes out.

          Halo hopefully will keep the mico going

            Thanks for the replies folks. You've answered my question.

            And ah137 - Grand Rapids, huh? Mt. Pleasant here. Need to find me a field.
