Ok, I've been wanting to assemble a 'Mag for a while but now I want to get actively working on it. All I know right now is inline blowbacks ( currently A-5, ) and my T-8 ( I know the blowforward is similar to 'Mag operation. ) Now, I've done some research on some basics but on the rest I don't even know if I'm asking the right questions. I know it's annoying for new people to show up and start asking the same questions that have been asked over and again in the past and have already been answered. But like I said I'm not even sure I'm searching for the right things or asking the right questions so if you bear with me a bit I'd really appreciate it. I don't need all the answers retyped, a link for something I can read would be more than excellent. So, here's my ideas on my ideal 'Mag, so far as I understand them.
My dream 'Mag would be something like this. I want to use an E-Mag trigger system so I have mech and electric modes. However I have no XP with e-trigger systems. So, would you recommend I stay with the stock board or switch to something else? I have no clue about programming, firing modes, timing settings, software versions, etc. However I'd be more than willing to settle for a normal fully mech trigger frame for now so long as it's the normal 1911 type that I've held on Tac Ones.
As for a valve, I really don't care between steel and aluminum ( 3 oz is not worth $100 to me, ) so long as it's functionally the same to an X-Valve ( LX included, etc, ) and can take a ULT. Granted if I end with E-Mag lowers then the e-trigger will likely make the ULT moot. But if I end firing mech mode for some reason, can I still get the bounce effect like on a Tippmann RT?
Rail I don't care about. I really don't have any particular style I'm looking for so long as it works. I don't favor a vert foregrip so the rail doesn't even need an attachment for one. Then again the E-Mag battery pack would be there too if that's the route I ended on. Though I've noticed some rails ( I guess they're older ones, ) have three mounting holes on either side for mounting various things.
For the main body, I don't have any particular needs other than a warp feed right. I plan on attaching a Q-Loader to the right side, under the barrel makes it too forward heavy for me. I don't think I want a Warp as it increases the marker profile and make it taller than I'd like. Finally I want to attach a sight on top ( I don't like offsets, ) so I'd either need a main body with top rails or get one of those secondary rails that can attach to the body assembly rail.
So, that's my basic, somewhat detailed, plan for my future 'Mag. Can anyone give me some tips or pointers on it? Better yet do you have any leads on players that are selling 'Mags or parts that I want? Thanks a lot.
