Wanting to bulid a mag what do i need

[Shocker s/f]

IM getting 12g in sept for a cd my g'ma had for me and ive decided i want to build a mag(majority of the money is going twards a house). I figured i have a bout 1000 - 1200 bucks to spend on a complet rig including hopper, tank and freak back.

These are the parts i want to get

Karta Body and rail w/ccm gripper
X-valve
level 10 bolt kit
ult kit
Rouge vert frame
Stainless Freak back (already have kit)
Matching Halo B (depends on what color gun i get )

For an Air tank most likely ill get a new maxy or a conquest

Is there anything ive over looked or anything mechanicly i need ot make the gun work ??
I havent had a mag in years and the first mag i head was a Rt in the 300's serial number range that was plaged with problems. So this would actually be my first real mag..

Now for the x valve would it be a better idea to pic up a cheap classic off of ebay and then do the Valve swap program that AGD has or just buy one out right ?

il also suggest www.whitewolfairsmithing.com he can build u a nice karta mag as well. i think freaks are over rated. theres alot of ncie abrrel kits out there that are cheaper. adn be careful on your tnak purchase youl want an adj that wil go voer 800psi or an 800+psi fixed tank

[Shocker s/f]

800 or higher Really thats an insane pressure, What kind of tank would yall use then ??

[Chronobreak]

not really that high.. i use a worrgas 70/45 800 fixed out

[Shocker s/f]

Hummm 800 ill have to see what i can get, Would a adjustable be better then pre-set for a mag.


Tunaman Can you get karta bodies and such cheaper then what i can get them for, I really want to build it my self so i can say i did it. I look at your web site, not to be an *** or anything but what are so special about the mags you build!

Like i said i have about 1000 - 1200 i would liek to stay way under that if i can help it thats why i concidered doing it my self.. Ill have to see..

[Chronobreak]

tuna builds them to your spec and can also give ncie custom anno jobs etc

tank doesnt really matter ide reccomend preset unles u want to play aroud with high input presserues for maximum bounce.

tuna should be able to order kartas at about the same price as from colin and i wouldnt spend mroe than 1000 unels ur getting an x-mag

If you really want to do it yourself, the cheapest way to build the marker to the specs you want would be to buy an RTP-ULE custom with the stock carbon fiber trigger frame, sluggo body, and ULT options. You could apply the sluggo and RTP rail towards getting a substantial discount on the Karta, and you'd already have all the internals and accessories in the base marker. Just bolt on an RPG frame purchased separately and you're ready to go.

However, many dealers are producing to-order markers and using other AO vendors' parts too. I'd highly recommend checking in with guys like Tunaman, White Wolf, RogueFactor, FragTek, and CoolHand first. Any one of them could get you what you want already tuned, ready-to-play right out of the box. I've dealt with most of the AO vendors and haven't had a problem with any of them. :)

Ill contact them all to see what can be arranged. Thanks for the advice !

As far as the hpa tank...go adjustable! With the x-valve you can crank up the input pressure and get major reactivity (bounce) or lower it down to 650-700 and have none (tourney legal). I would recommend the Dynaflow made by Centerflag. There is a fellow in the dealers forum (madmolly) that is selling them right now for 225 plus 10 for shipping (brand new). That is a great deal as they retail for 350 brand new. They are light and have an insane recharge rate. I'm running one now (that i bought off of madmolly) on my x-valve with ult and I can get it to sling ropes of paint!
