X-Mag vs E-Mag

[f1d094]

Ok...I've pretty much decided on an E-Mag, but before I go and drop a grand or so I'd like hear a couple of opinions on the following:

1) If my E-Mag has comes stock with an X-Valve and Lvl10 bolt(which is supposedly GOD's OWN ANSWER to ball-chop), what does the ACE/Software/Accessible breech do for me?

2) I'm not up on the latest and greates in barrels apparently. Why would I want Cocker barrel threading?

I really wouldn't mind going the extra mile and spending the money, but I don't see any ROI with these extra features?

Please, educate me.

Thanks in advance.

Well, level 10 isnt really foolproof. Lets just call ACE a nice backup. Its better to not hit the ball in the first place then to hit it with reduced force. Ive seen level 10 guns chop. I have yet to chop with ACE in my Viking. The breech is only really useful if you want to run a warp, as you can just slap in a warp breech.

Cocker barrels are kind of like the industy standard. Not all barrels are made for mags, but just about all (if not all) are made in cocker threading. With an emag you can just get a ULE body anyways, and those do the cocker threading.

Ok...next question then...

I'm interested in doing the Warp feed, and the ACE sounds nice...but I HATE vert feeds...totally fcuks up my groove.

1) Can I get the ACE setup on a powerfeed/warpfeed E-Mag?

2) Is it possible to get a powerfeed breech for an X-Mag?

#1 Yes

#2 No not currently (and I suspect never)

You actually CAN'T get the ACE on a regular Emag without milling the grip & body, buying the board and getting it programmed.

Honestly, not worth it. I turn the ACE off on my Xmag. Don't even bother with it. Tom himself said it.

Thanks!

Ok...Feeling more comfortable with my decision by the moment. Thanks for the Gospel per Tom.
