    Worth upgrading

    I currently am shooting a minimag - with level seven and am very happy with it. I do not beleive I am coordinated enough to shoot more than 10 BPS but I do lay a pretty steady stream of paint from the gates - stainless barrel, nitro, drop forward, happy with set up

    With this being said I see the price of RTs coming down I'm tempted to get one - I mean, I see how excited Tom Kaye was about the whole RT thing when it was coming out. Is there any advantage to the RT aside from speed - or the X mag for that matter.

    I belive the knew mags come with a level ten bolt for free, and then there's always that next level of respect.

      a rt and a xvalve are the same performance wise right? the only thing different is weight difference and looks?

        Do I gain anything besides speed from the upgrades? Speed does not concern me as I don't shoot that fast

          if you are happy with your speed... atleast get a iframe... they are just really nice... if you got even more money get a ule.. you can kind of feel weight differences..

            if you want more fire power then an RT pro, or Iframe and Xvalve are a good way to go. however if you want my respect reach out and bunker someone with a PGP. the only ones who will give you more respect just because you have a RT are the renters and the guys who havn't realised that the gun matters less then the player. i don't even know how old my mag is, (i know the warranty went void in '97, or was it '94 i can't remember) however it's still a hose, and it's the best setup for me, i use it more then my impulse, it's just more fun. although i'm using nothing but a phantom right now.

              The retro/X valve will give you a nicer crisper trigger pull than the stock valve, especially when coupled with an intelliframe. The level 10 on a retro is nice because it prevents the chops that come from owning a gun that will cause you fire faster bursts.
              Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                i would recomend a level 10 to any mag owner (sorry forgot to mention that) it'll reduce ball brakeage to none except what happens in the barrel.
