Getting my first mag...

[FriendlyFire]

Thats right, I'm getting a mag. Upgrading from a Tippmann 98 Custom, I CANT WAIT . It's going to be a a simple setup to begin with- Powerfeed automag w/Lapco Bigshot (if i can get ahold of one), but besides hoses and asa what are some good basic upgrades I should also inclued on my mag?

[OpHavoc]

hmmm not sure if these are basic? but here goes:
1.New Trigger Frame(unless its like benchie 2X)
2.ReTro Valve(ok not basic its like a hole new gun)

[Havoc_online]

get an Iframe and a level 10 mod, then when you can afford it, get a retro valve.

[speedyejl]

ahhhh....

Heres my recomeneded list

1 LX
2 Halo
3 Foregrip or vertical ASA
4 Nitro
5 DYE Trigger Frame w/ DYE Trigger
6 RT Valve
7 Cosmetic upgrades IE: Body rail, Body

Well By now you got a kick "bum" mag

[Cristobal]

Repeat after me: HPA and a motorized hopper, HPA and a motorized hopper, HPA and...

Folowing that a lvl 10 would be a good solid investment that will add value and near foolproof protection against chops.

The intelliframe is by far the favorite and most recomended frame on AO.

A Retro Valve will be a nice improvement on the trigger -- and combined with the intelliframe its dynamite.

HPA, moterized hopper
Then get some of this stuff in the order you want
Warp
Level 10
Grip frame *coughZ-Grip*cough
Retro Valve
Cool cosmetic stuff

Did you say z-grip? I dunno about them.They seem too awkward to us in different positions.

I say definately a motorized hopper. Really dont need anything more than a revy though. Also level 10 would be a good investment. Of course you need a nice cradle. And some type of double trigger frame. And hpa would be a very good idea.

[OpHavoc]

well i use a revvy and its fine ( i think the other day I out shot it! although some doubt me cause its 10-12bps maybe mine isnt as good and can do 9) yea HPA and ELECTRONIC HOPPER are no brainer upgrades.

[Remington]

Cristobal couldn't have said it any better. Get HPA and a revy first. THEN, get a double trigger frame, and a drop forward. Then start trickin' your 'mag out (i.e powdercoating, chrome, etc.) Good luck!

Does a new minimag need a retro valve?

[OpHavoc]

buying a retro valve is basicly getting a hole new gun
so no it doesnt NEED it but it in my opinion is like one of the best upgrades you can do to a mag. even tho all it is is buying a RT valve and getting rid of yout AIR valve

[PyRo]

Don't diss teh z less youve tried it. They ownz0r.
