Problem Chopping new SFL Help! Lukes Friend and a new member

[E-SFL]

Breech

I showed my Friend Luke and he agrees with me, the vertical part of the breech is pressed in, the pressed part seems to be sticking out and is kinda rough. It could be causing the paint to break we already ruled out the barrels, paint, bolt. I was wondering if I should grind it out myself or have a machinist hone it are do nothing at all and send it to AGD.

2000Sabre,
Not to flame you buddy. But I doubt there is a marker that will meet the criteria you mention. Paint that is possibly a year and a half old. and to boot it's cold out?
besides that, $1500? wow, thats a chunk o change. hmmm....

You can void your warranty and have someone else work on it or do it yourself, or you can send it to AGD who knows what they're doing and if they mess it up trying to fix it, they'll replace it. I know it's a hassle and doesn't seem right to have to send in a $1500 gun to get repaired right away, but things like that happen and I wouldn't try modifying anything yourself. Just send it to AGD and get it fixed right.

BlackVCG,

Grinding or honing sound's a little harsh. Really all that needs to be done is to smooth of the sharp edges. There really isn't any burrs or major defects, its just that the machined edges are sharp. At this point I can't see anything else wrong. It would void the warranty to smooth the edges with a peace of emery cloth?

sent it in

this morning I called AGD and got a RA#. I sent it back this afternoon to have them work on it. Hopefully Tom Kay himself will take a look at it. Like I said before I think it is in the pressed part of the breech hopefully they will get my gun fixed and sent back to me

e-mag sent in

I called and checked on my gun. They told me the gun has not been looked at yet for the problem that I explained with the boring on the breech. They told me that the laser weld broke off the power tube tip when they took it apart. The tech said it would take 2-3 weeks before the gun would be fixed. My wife is pissed off because I spent $1500 on a new gun and I have not been able to use it. I don't know why they can't pull out the old valve and replace it with a new one because it is warrantied anyhow, instead of being 3 weeks without a gun waiting for them to weld the old one back together. Then after that, I have to wait for the gun to be teched. I am continuing to be more frustrated, with a $1500 gun that I have not been able to shoot yet. Luke has been telling me just be patient they will work the bugs out, and get your gun going right. He says that AGD stands behind their products, I trust him. I just want a gun back in working order. I feel like I bought a lemon.

E-SFL,

I think this was a bad situation to begin with considering you were talked into purchasing this gun by your friend. You certainly seem to be having more problems than most and this is causing us both a lot of frustration. Currently the entire stock of SFL's has been sold out and there are no more until the next batch of Xtremes goes out. Currently I have an SFL promised to someone, so I am going to solve both our problems by giving you your money back on this marker. Please call AGD in the morning and we will send you a check if you can fax us the reciept.

Sorry for all the hastles, sometimes luck is just not with us.

I love going head-to-head with Angels and other High dollar markers. Own and Retro and an older RT. Can't wait till the SFL's and Xtreme's get better and I can afford one.

Now if you guys would just market a bit better.. LOL

don't care for the money

I am less worried about the money and more worried about getting a working gun. Luke was right I am going to engrave my name, number and team name and logo onto my gun. I want to shoot the E-SFL, I would like to have an all mag team. I have already talked my brother into to buying a mag before I had bought mine. I run a store for some people in AZ, and I have recently talked them into higher end guns. I called yesterday to have an account set up with AGD, I left my name, and number and the machine said somebody would return my call. I would like to carry mags in the store within two weeks. Luke is right I have a heavy influence on what people shoot in this area, only because I play with different groups of people. I ask them what they want and get them what they need. I have already started pushing the mags in the store even though I do not have them in stock. You have to understand I used to use a cocker and I considered it to be the best gun out there. I have been shooting Luke's mags and I am very pleased with the performance and accuracy and especially the dependability, my wife is laughing while typing this message because she knows how much trouble I had with my cocker. She is not to sure about the E-SFL the gun or me. lol. But I am standing behind the product and AGD. Thank you for responding Tom, but I want the gun and not the money.

E-SFL,

Ok, by your request I will fix your gun personally. I am going to make you a beta tester with all the new stuff.

IT STILL MIGHT HAVE PROBLEMS but they will be the best problems I know how to give you.

I am going to give you an ACE but it might have issues in sunlight. You run the risk of us changing something down the road and we have to remachine the gun in some other way and it ends up with empty holes inside etc.

If this is ok I will work on it this weekend.

e-sfl i sent u a email ,.

Welcome aboard E-SFL. Tom has put you in an enviable position. Beta testers are a select group from I gather from this site and by experience. Like you, I stand behind what I believe. Playing for a team that is dominated by custom Cockers and a growing number of Intimidators, I look like the red-headed step-child. After playing 12(6 tournament) years with a Mag, I have no desire to change. With access to any gun I want to shoot, I remain with the Mag. Because my captain owns the Shocktech line and helped produced the SFL, I felt it was the logical and loyal step to try one. Ever since last World Cup, Tom has continually changed, added, improved my SFL. We've had ups and downs as far as results, but it is all in the effort to make the BEST possible marker. Loyalty rarely goes unrewarded.

(cphilip now prepares for the onrush of other people who claim their markers all the sudden now don't work so they can get Tom to spend his weekends to make them Beta testers too...

E-SFL, envy here! envy!!!! Good luck to you buddy.
