    ZE-mag

    Well, I am addicted to this sport and have well over 1G into my gear and gun. The only thing that is holding me back from getting an E-mag, is my sick infatuation with the Z-grips. When I picked up the Z-grips for the first time I knew that I would never go back, but when I picked up the E-mag I also knew that I could NOT stay away.

    To all of you E-mag owners who like doing mods, is it possible to modify the Z-grips and add the solenoid, and magnets and mag a ZE-mag? I have not dug into the E-mag much, so I don't know, but if it were do-able, then I would be laying down a big check on an E-mag. I am willing to chop of expensive equipment, but I need to know if it would be feasable before I buy me an E-mag.


    Tom if you read this, what would it cost for a custom job Z-grip on an E-mag?

    1g? thats it? hahaha, anyways. i'm sure it can be done. if you can put emails into a gun, you can make an ez-mag. i think it would take a bit of enginuity and milling and such. i'm pretty sure manike is working on one and there was one other person. try doint a search and finding outt who's looking into this. they're around.

      I am in the same boat I love e-mags but will not give up my z-grip.



      If they ever do make such a thing they should call it the EZ-MAG

        Or you can get in touch with Dingo, (in the Dealer thread) and see what he's cooking up with a custom Z-grip and mako frame internals...

        I'm sure it can be done. And I might even make one, once my morlock board shows up.

          Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


          i believe is going to be called the "Y-Grips".

            bro, there's no such thing as a y grip. it was just an itelliframe put on an emag backwords. there is no new grip.

              After looking at that pics I agree with TheBigRaguPB4L. That is just a grip frame on backwards. If AGD does make an EZmag, then I will be purchasing, but until then I guess I am stuck with my Z-microRT. Oh well.

                I already asked Tom if he could do a Z-Emag and he said that they probably wont, and that they don't so custom work, and even if they did that I couldn't afford it lol . Your best bet is to contact Punisher and see if he could do it, but the solenoid would have to be redesigned...

                ENDO!

                  From what I understand, it cant be done without some MAJOR redesigns as the solenoid pulls in the wrong direction to be installed in a Z-Grip frame.

                    It would be possible but there would be some redesigning. I've been thinking about it for a bit and it made more sense to just move the solenoid and make it pure electro with z-grip. I'm guessing my idea would leave more room for the solenoid to be relocated.

                      Y Grip is in the works. It doesn't exist... yet. They might not be made at all though... depends on response from Z-Grips on sale and what AGD feels like doing.
