    Mag build based on looks?

    Ok, I'm a complete noob to mags though I have been reading and researching for a few weeks now. I'm coming from an A5 with R/T and really don't care about electros that much, though I do like the R/T effect. I'm also a woodsball and scenario player so I do like the looks of a more tactical marker. For this reason, the tac-one looks perfect for me.

    I'm thinking, however, that the emag battery pack looks SO much better than the stock tac-one foregrip. Maybe it's that it looks more like a magazine, I don't know.

    An e-tac seems to be quite a bit more expensive than a standard tac-one though, and I'm already going to have to wait and save until next year to swing the mag by my wife to begin with. Add to it that I might not use the electro mode if I got an e-tac anyway, (will I still be able to get a response effect?) I'm wondering which way I should look toward going. Are there foregrips out there that look like magazines other than the emag battery pack?

    you can mount a emag battery pack to your tac one with mech trigger and r/t as an empty housing and make it look like a emag ish / magazine.

    that would be the cheapest option.

      You could also pick up a gutted emag frame for cheap (no electronics).

          Check out Venomous Designs they have some cool foregrips that could go good with a tac one and are pnuemag compatible so you could upgrade to a pnuemag if you so choose.

              you could use the Tac One body and a RT rail use a surplus magazine wide enough to clear the rail (M-14 mag most likely) and just use the for grip screws to hold it on after you cut the top open.

                    The cool things about mags is that if you can't find what you want, you can make it (or find some one to do it for you). I have built two foregrips that are rectangular, like an emags. Buy aluminum, pretty cheap online, then mill and drill.
