Minimag

[ahellers]

if i were you i would buy the classic. if for no other reason that it has a more usefull air bottle set up. the vertical air bottle set up on the minimag isnt very cumfy IMO, you could upgrade it to use the kind the classic has but you should probably play a little and figure out how you want the gun set up. and learn a little about automags. i would also check out the markers fourm here because i think that the classic from the air gun site is a little over priced.

twist locks.
twist lock barrels are not made by most manufactures. there are a few but not many. however if you upgrade to a ULE body(http://store.airgun.com/index.cfm?fu...&categoryID=10 ) in the future that will solve the problem. the stock twist lock barrel should be fine untill you decide to upgrade.

one more peace of advice... just jump right in and figure out all the gun stuff. the most harm you could do is waist some money and have some funny stories.

it would probably be easier to buy of the AGD site because i live in the UK, i could get it shipped to my aunty then here. even if it is a bit pricey, it is cheap compared to the prices over here. But if i bought from somebody off the Markers forums it could get a bit tricky, but thanks for the help anyway. :) Now for the nexty part, where would i be able to get my Co2 tank filled up? Obviously at my local skirmish, but i i wouldn't want to travel over there everytime.

you could by a buch of co2 tanks and get them all filled. a 20oz tank will last most of a day depending on how much you shoot.
the other option is do what i do. if you have the ability to get HPA (high pressure air) filled (3000PSI, um might be differnt w/ metric) then you could by a scuba bottle and an hpa tank. its a little more expensive to get started but you save money on fills and you get to use air, which is better for your gun and more consistent. also if you do that make sure you get a hpa fill station.

so ether buy a bunch of co2 tanks, or get set up to fill your own air.

so there no way i could get the tanks refilled say at my local gas station or something, because other wise i would have to buy a new tank every day i use it?

ahh dont worry about that last post, i now know what you mean, get the tanks filled whenever i go to skirmish, i thought you ment buy a tank get it filled use it then throw it away. but would I be able to get them filled at my local gas station?

[ahellers]

im not sure you under stood. or maby i dont. but what i said is, maby once a month go to the paintball field, and fill like 4-8 co2 tanks, then you should be good for a while. co2 tanks arnt that expensive.

no your gas station shouldnt fill tanks. they probably dont have the right stuff. and air compressers that can hit 3000ps cost like $2000 min and arnt the same thing at air compessers at gas stations, thay only hit maby 100psi. some sporting good stores will also fill co2 tanks for you

you could alwas lookin to tippmanns c-3 if your worried about air fills, it shoot 50,000 round on one small propane tank

one more thing you should do to get ready is start to pour through the level 10 faq's so you know how to tune it up when you get it.

i've already looked through a few of them but i am geting it fitted when i buy it so.... but ill look more at them beacuse im not sure at all about any of the fine tuning stuff

[RossRobObey]

as the ULE body are only in virtical or warp feed, what other 'decent' bodys are there that take the autococker style barrels, that would fit the Automag .68 Pro Classic? and can u fit the 'expansion chambers' onto the Automag .68 Pro Classics? if so is it hard to do?

[ahellers]

for mag bodys look at themagsmith.com, also look at rails if you want. a rail is the peace between the body and the trigger frame.

as for ex-chambers. they are pritty easy. most have the same specs as a forgrip so you can just replace the forgrip w/one. then fun you line through it. when you buy your gun buy a few macro line kits so you have some extra line and airfittings.http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/...8AAAD_Jz9HHcI7

iv looked on there and coulnd find any, dont suppose youd be able to give me a link or tell me where about they are?

[ahellers]

the links for macroline and ex-camber is in my last post
oh and goto www.themagsmith.com and click accessories or somthin and the bodies will be under RPG and DW

You are kinda stuck as far as the body is concerned. If you insist on having a right/left feed, you might be able to find a barrel adapter (mag to cocker), I think Doc's Machine made one a while back. Or you can look for an older pro-team micromag body (one with a removable barrel).

so how would you fit the ex chamber because the foregrip is there?? if you don't know or can be bothered to explain don't worry
