      I don't think so. I think the uniqueness of putting an X-Mag body on non E-Mag lowers is quite amazing. A-Tach's DMX-Mag and Loguz's ZX-Pneumag are terrific examples of such.

      I'd love the opportunity to fix up my own Pneumag with an X-Mag body. Since it's already a Warp-Right body it'd just be convenient, especially with the opportunity to go vertical feed when I don't feel like using my Q-Loader.

      Damn now I really wish there was an X-Mag body up for sale right now.

          I dont think it is a bad thing. Some X's hold Value that is more than money. if that value is solely yours, then the poll means nothing. If you think that something completely amazing could come from the parting of it then I say do it!

            Parting love

            While I do admit there is something to be said for parting out a very limited production gun, the whole of this community pretty much revolves around making the coolest markers we can out of whatever we can. A little bit of this, and a little bit of that, ad plenty of anno and here you go, a masterpiece for every player! I'm surprised that these don't get parted out more often, but then again there is still bit of reverence about them. Maybe it's because I am a recent Mag convert

              Two fine examples of what could be, but on the other hand to part a pristine xmag no . To part one that needs to be reannoed or partly damaged why not...

              Now if I could get my hands on a SFL Emag. I'd like to part that baby out and make something wild.......





















              Now how many of you guys cringed over my last statement on a SFL????

                I don't own an x-mag. But I was once told that there is nothing that links the lowers to the body. By that I mean matching serial numbers.

                If there were matching serial numbers then I would lean towards crime. But without them I don't see a problem. Its basically just emag lowers with ace.

                    I think it would be a shame to see a beautiful marker being parted out. I have mixed emotions, if the project was a killer one then why not but if it was just to get the ace abilaty then what a shame.

                        I say if you keep all the parts then go ahead and make somthing crazy, but at least make it so you can re build the x-mag in the future.

                          I'd love to get a non-CnC Xmag body and do the same thing as Loguzzz, but that won't happen until I can buy a complete Xmag ( highly unlikely ) or get my hands on a body, which won't happen if people don't part it out.

                          Personally, it wouldn't bother me unless there's something very unique about it.

                              Thing is though, I don't think the SFL body would really look good on anything BUT a set of E/X-Mag lowers. Even before the first time I saw an X-Mag body on something other than E/X lowers I knew it would look good on anything. I think it's the way the SFL body was made specifically to be fitted with E-Mag lowers and the X-Mag body was design to be a new limited edition body that was marketed with upgraded E-Mag frames. Probably because the individual cost of each X-Mag body was so expensive that it wouldn't have made a great deal of sense to a) sell them individually and b) without an electronic frame.
