    Your link didn't work but it sounds like this. In late '93 SmartParts came up with a modification to the Automag that they claimed increased range by up to 15 yards. The modification was immediately controversial, with various rumors regarding its function, its performance, its legality in tournament play, and its safety all being questioned.

    An initial review on the modification by Paintball Consumer Reports International was not favorable. The jury is still out on the modification's actual level of performance, but most people agree that using a low pressure, high volume mod like this *does* increase the gun's effective range. Only by about 4 feet not the 15 yards or something like that they advertised. Fun stuff.

      The only real difference I think it made was that the gun was quieter and the trigger was lighter. Ball breakage was less common too.

        The jury was in long ago.
        It does nothing, I wouldn't buy a mag with one on it.

                Hey Pyro, I thought I was crazy when I was reading that old ad. I also could have sworn I've heard Tom say the same thing, just can't remember where or when though.
