Nope. Never had any done. My gun is all black. Everything was bought black. Skate plates and motorcycle parts is it. Nimet industries has done all of my stage 3 hard coat. And colors inc has done all the color.

My dream mag would mimic the cotton candy fade from an sto cocker...mmmmmmm..... with just enough polished accents, like the barrel back, trigger and valve

are you talking about the one that is blue to purple fade, that thing pops!(although blue isnt my favorite color)

[keiko_819]

I like the neon yellow with polished cleat accents. There was a MOTM done like that a few years ago. I personally love bright colored markers. Unfortunately I usually opt for black because I know everything gets sold at some point.

didnt even look at the motm thread til you posted this, there are tons of sexy pieces in there

Yes, that's my second favorite cocker ever made... behind the black/red fade black magic

Fruity colored guns/parts generally have the worst resale value.

Black moves the fastest and appears to fetch the best price generally.

My recommendation is to distinguish yourself via gameplay, not equipment...

yeah you always have to have a back up plan when you run outa money.
seems like a common thing, people missmanaging money.

yea i know that resale is harder for custom colors, thats why i was going to go with solid colors on parts, no custom acid, splash, fade, ect. ano jobs for me anytime in the near future, ive seen way to many great ano jobs that sit in forums for sale just because everyone has a different taste... but i doubt i would have a problem parting it out, if i ever wanted to

I had an RT pro with a really nice orange body and the rest was black. Was poor and didn't have the $$ for a complete anno nor the parts I really wanted. Have thought about having my Karta done like that, either solid with a splash or a tri-fade with a reverse splash. Resale doesn't matter because the Karta is going no where! lol

[keiko_819]

i tend to try and keep my bodies a solid color, we all know how many times we have switched out a part for something else, shoot, i just got some parts back from ano recently and somehow i had to take apart 3 different guns to finally make everything just how i wanted it(mind you the parts were supposed to only be for 1 gun, ha!)

Quote of the year!

I remember back when the paintball field a few buddy's and I used to frequent wouldn't let us play with walk ons unless we used their rental pumps, and one balled.

For some reason that line reminded me of that? Good times, hell, now I need all the fancy stuff I can get my hands on just to keep up

Colors other than black are harder to sell, but solid colors are the next best thing IMO. Partially because its also easier to move parts many times than it is to sell complete markers. You hit the nail on the head with people having different tastes, and with the customizing possibilities with Mags it probably makes it worse. I've seen some Mags that had awesome anodizing jobs for sale, but one or more of the parts were not to my liking so I would shy away from the marker because I knew it be a pain to try and match the ano if I replaced the parts.

I know we all have markers that we plan on keeping forever, but life doesn't always work out that way.

Mines gonna be black and slime green.

[cougar20th]

Bright colors area always good for me.

My first automag was and still is purple. Some of my other guns are various colors. I dont worry one bit about being able to hide in the woods.
