    My Pnuemag ripped!

    Well yesterday i got to play with my pneumag and i has to say i've never wasted so much paint before in my life. I could only get about 4-600 shots on a fill because of it, but i have to say that was nice, one of the refs i work with told me today that my gun was awesome and thought i had ramping on it, and i outshot my hopper when i had it on the 13 bps setting. Around thanksgiving i'll find this again and post a vid up, but i'm at college again and didn't have time to take one, so you're SOL for the time being, but yeah, i love that thing, and also hate it cause it's gonna eat me out of house and home as far as paint goes.

    Awsome.

    I've had to limit myself to a certain amount of paint lately because of that. Depending on $$$ I will either allow myself 500 rounds or 1000 rounds. Once those are used up out comes the pump.

    Last time I played I only got in 2 games with my XMAG.

    Hell if you have the firepower you may as well use it

      Waste paint with a pneumag, never. LOL

      I kinda do wat smoothice does, limit the paint for the pneus and electros then comes out the mech mag (no pump yet).

      Glad it went well.

        Welcome to the club!

        Usually i limit the amount of paint during games... Instead of 4 pods the first game, i only take 2. Most of the times i use way too much paint during the first few games, and then i settle down a bit.

          I tried to do that but it was too tempting, and then a ball broke in my pod so i was just providing cover fire so others could move cause my balls went everywhere but straight after that, and i didn't realize until i was halfway through dumping my pod in my hopper. But yeah, i still successfully limited myself to 700 rounds before switching to pump, and found an extra pod of rounds that someone dropped and i didn't see them again that day so i kept it. Still, it was a lot of fun, and there were people who didn't believe it was mechanical.

              60 at the beginning, and i think we barely broke 100, if we even did. It was a sad sight to see.

                Glad you like it! I have been running one for over a year and I haven't saved a penny by using a mech.

                  After the new wears off a bit, you will slow down your paint consumption a bit. Right at first it is hard. You almost get meniacal (sp?) about it just ripping at people.

                  Glad you enjoy your new toy.

                            Man, you're getting me too amped with all of this pneumag talk! I just pneud my MicroMag (classic valve), but have yet to put any paint through it. I just got done about 30 minutes ago cutting out the "ledge" in the middle of my intelliframe so I can mount a plate and use the msv-2 with the full lever and not have to cut it down. I can't wait to get out there and show my buds with electros that I can shoot as fast as they can. Pneu FTW!

                              I tend to try and limit myself to a case a day (2k rounds) no matter what I am shooting. I just like to snap shoot until I get surrounded or rushed... then everyone finds out just how fast a pneumag actually is There were some crazy stupid charges last weekend at the fox 4 scenario and I really got to open her up for the second time this year

                              on a side note. How many here run a QEV with their pneumag? I've hung one below my 3way temporarily and I've notice a bit of an improvement in the crispness of the cycle rate... but I'm trying to figure out where to best place it?!?!?!
